Inception (2010) Review

Inception is perhaps the smartest action movie ever made. But it's not quite an action movies- is it? Inception can't really decide on what genre it is, so it decides to be many. It works on many levels- as a science-fiction masterpiece, a fantastic mystery that unravels itself as it goes along, a fun, exciting action-thriller, and at some points in the film the acting is so great that it could even be mistaken as drama. I mean, a man trying to forget his wife's death and a son trying to cope with father's death sounds like a drama. The acting is perfect from everyone in the ensemble cast. It's full of Oscar nominees, and hopefully, future Oscar nominees, and it's all made possible by the brilliant Christopher Nolan. The score is brilliant, one of Han Zimmer's best. The ending tops this perfect film off greatly, and after I finally understand this complex film, the only thing I'm left wondering is: Why didn't this win best picture?
Movie Rating: A+
