ROTTEN POTATOES is literally shaking with anticipation for Christopher Nolan's new film, Inception, which hits theaters July 16. We can't really say what the plot is because we don't know. The very basics is that Leo can steal ideas from people's dreams. Sadly, you will have to make do with these other critics until our review comes out. We apologize for this, but try very hard to benefit from their reviews:
AICN:
“Though the narrative speeds ahead like a rapidly unfolding lucid dream, INCEPTION uses the familiar vernacular of the heist film to keep less attentive audiences engaged. Unlike other films that traipse across the boundless landscape of the unconscious mind, it’s not a take-it-or-leave-it proposition.” … “The particulars may be complex, but there’s an emotional logic that drives the story forward. There are also wildly compelling action set pieces. In this regard, INCEPTION is a miracle: a multi-layered meditation on the unruly clutter of the subconscious that works sensationally well as a classical action film. It plays brilliantly on every conceivable level.” … “What’s most exciting about INCEPTION is that it finds Nolan peaking as a visual artist; he’s using the extravagantly cinematic tropes of other genres to connect with the viewer intellectually. With INCEPTION, Nolan joins the company of Coppola, Lean and not too many others as a filmmaker who treats the big canvas with the respect it deserves - but with the steely verve of a chess player who can see dozens of moves ahead. Pure cinema at its best feels like dreaming with your eyes wide open. Cinema doesn’t get much purer than INCEPTION.”
The Hollywood Reporter:
"A devilishly complicated, fiendishly enjoyable sci-fi voyage across a dreamscape that is thoroughly compelling.” … “”Inception” puts him not only at the top of the heap of sci-fi all-stars, but it also should put this Warner Bros. release near or at the top of the summer movies. It’s very hard to see how a film that plays so winningly to so many demographics would not be a worldwide hit.” … “Sometimes originality comes at a cost though: At the end, you may find yourself utterly exhausted.”
