I just saw “Inception.” Absolutely beautiful.

Usually for me the movies are entertainment. Once in awhile, though, the genre is transcended into true art. Seems like a real labor of love on the part of Christopher Nolan, who apparently spent ten years writing/re-writing the script. The fact that it doesn’t crumble under its own weight is evidence of how hard he must have worked. Great cast... great script... great ideas... awesome FX but not over the top, always in service of the story and characters, both of which were superb. So many layers. Psychology: deal with your stuff or it will get buried and keep haunting you... Philosophy: the nature of the self, consciousness, reality vs ideals of the mind... Morality: guilt and the conscience as unshakable verification of being “real...” Relationships: father and child, husband and wife, colleagues in the heist; Suspense: the awesome, tortuously slow fall of that van...

Like the best works of art, this film left me feeling alive and awake and incredibly exhilarated. A masterpiece! THANK YOU Christopher Nolan and cast! More movies like this!! PLEASE!!!
