Reality* - Richard Sanderson

Watched Inception during the weekend. No worries - no spoilers here!



Why no spoilers? Well, to be absolutely honest, i'm not sure about a lot of things in the movie!!!! There were many occasions when i went "But why...".

Yeah, maybe i'm just too dumb for such a sophisticated movie! But what a movie it is! for me to go thru it despite having many questions only shows how exciting and interesting it was. A movie which requires you to think!

Basically, it is about dreams - and reality, and where one ends and the other begins. Or does it end/begin at all?

I liked how it uses our real dream experiences to explain certain things - like how we can never remember when the dream starts (we just end up there and then), how a dream so absurd can yet feel so real when we are in it, how the dream can seem to last for a long only for us to wake up and discover we've only dozed off for a few seconds only!

So be warned - if u're tired and dun wanna think much, go watch Predators! But if you want to watch a clever movie which makes u sit up and think, and even challenges what u think u oredi know, this is the movie to watch!

Many are saying this is the best movie of the year! Well, i cannot agree with that. It is good. Very good in fact! But the best? Still, i do not disagree that Christopher Noland is one of the best film-makers of our time.

*This song kept on running in my head when i watched the movie! A really old favourite of mine.
