Inception
Inception Rotten Tomatoes' Webpage
Consensus: Smart, innovative, and thrilling, Inception is that rare summer blockbuster that succeeds viscerally as well as intellectually. Last edited by Tribal Warfare; 07-13-2010 at 05:55 PM.. |

I just watched this film for the first time last night, and I let my kids watch it tonight. I tend to "prescreen" movies for my younger kids. I'm not sure how to say this exactly so I'll make a list: 1) my young kids are a 15 year old girl and a 13 year old boy 2) they had no problem following the story, they understood the plot as did I 3) the first comment either of them made when it ended was from my daughter, she said turned to me and said,"the top was wobbling." 4) we all thought it was a great movie, one of the best in recent memory |

My friend just emailed me this:
Pretty awesome. I'm not sure if I mentioned it in here, but when the movie ended I told my girlfriend that Cobb couldn't ever know as long as he was using Mal's top as a totem.

Then why the hell would he be so concerned with spinning the top everytime he wakes up.

That is what I wondered throughout the film. It is made clear that it is her totem many times... I guess to throw off the viewer perhaps??

Speaking of totems..Anyone ever figure out what the hell Ariadne's totem was supposed to do? A chess piece with a hole in it? Whats the functionality of it?

When you knock her totem over it will always roll to the same position after it falls.

Another totem question: WHY do they work? Why would a top keep spinning in a person's dream? Wouldn't the dreamer want the dream to be as normal as possible, therefor making the top fall?

I do agree with you questioning why the totem is a good method at all because your mind would make it real in a sense.
