Dom Cobb (Leonardo DiCaprio) is the world's best in the art of extracting the secrets of the subconscious just as the mind of the victim is more vulnerable : during sleep. The strange Don Cobb has become a very coveted in the world of corporate espionage, but it has also condemned to be an international fugitive costing you everything you ever wanted. You now have a chance to redeem himself and return to normal life he longs for, but for this he and his team will have to do the opposite of what they usually carry out "the inception", which involves implanting an idea in the subconscious rather than evading. But his plan is complicated when a dangerous enemy seems to predict each of their movements. An enemy that Cobb could only see it coming. The cinema is understood as a window into another world, has its highest expression in a film that transports you a fantasy in a way so powerful that do not want to end, is an experience so overwhelming that you do not notice the passage of time, just want to enjoy the moment, every moment. It's like living a dream. Film as a dream shared "The Source" is. It is so spectacular, amazing, exciting, intelligent, romantic (the first of its director so focused on love), his two hours' duration be short reach. We can not say so many movies, fewer and fewer.
spontaneous inspiration can not be faked. That is a premise of "The Source", an ambitious film where want to watch it. Even if the script that Christopher Nolan worked for ten years is full of nooks and mazes for allegedly talking and at the forefront of dreams, so many gadgets, the turns of the plot, the areas covered by the fault, love and overwhelming visual display that the screening of "The Source" can be as enjoyable. The success of " Batman: The Dark Knight " (2008) he crossed the London director access to do what you want. Warner gave $ 200 million and Nolan opted for a plot that is much closer to " Memento" (2000), the work that catapulted him as a filmmaker original, the superhero. If "Memento" Leonard lived his character history history backwards, from the present into the past because it had in recent memory, a memory within a memory, here makes Nolan Cobb and his people live a dream within ... a dream within a dream. In this film Nolan sharpest knife deploys its narrator, since overlaps several realities, different narrative levels that immerse us in a labyrinth game as exciting and entertaining, though far from essential to understand and develop the plot and its various sub-plots. Everything fits. It's a game for introducing us suggestion and invites us to participate in the development and traps us in his conclusion makes us part of it.
A solid script, but allow certain licenses, manage time wisely, especially to build the suspense as a time bomb and makes his protagonist in the absolute cornerstone of the events. Get Cobb subconscious include this with the story that puts us in contention to a team of experts in search of his goal. A triple objective is a mortal, an intricate journey to the bottom of the mind into three stages, each more exciting (again thanks to the use of the time) and that alienates us from the fourth plane, reality that almost lost importance, but which is vital to set foot on earth and try to understand the network. It's the end of a maze vibrant action-packed story, with games, tricks but also excitement and spectacle from start to finish. As "The Origin" began to be regarded as an extraordinary spectacle, there were detractors who preferred a pose before being dragged into the maelstrom of emotions that they propose. With "The Origin" Nolan continues delving into the topics that interest you, big time, with a budget that allows the screen to move all your ideas, no matter how twisted and resulting giant. Is such his ambition even lost in his attempt to get even harder (the end is breathtaking complexity that can amaze as much as despair) has too many explanations and underlined his mammoth odyssey, but minor flaws are forgivable at the overwhelming force of this dream come film in which there are all action, science fiction, philosophy, love. My advice: let go, jump into the void and ... wake up?
Nolan The biggest success is that their approach allows you to play whatever he wants, and does not disappoint when it comes to seize the starting point, does not relax in any scene always looks amazing. And he succeeds, there is really fascinating situations (like that scene in which the city of Paris almost doubles), visually, emotionally and intellectually this compact. But Nolan still not a great director when it explodes the action, is its major flaw (the female characters do not take it beyond this time), but manages to make up, as we succeed in "Batman: The Dark Knight", thanks to show and some isolated moments that arise during the development of these sequences (the use of slow motion is exemplary), which are always increasing in intensity, culminating in the right moment. Supported by the effective score by Hans Zimmer, Nolan does not break in "The Origin", even in quiet situations, dialogues, there is so much substance that it is impossible to relax and desconectarce. The trip to dreamland is a huge attraction, but Nolan saw the fantastic tone of a thriller and it is where the film is brilliant. Although perhaps because of its blockbuster status include brilliant visual effects, which contribute very little well thought out the plot, but manages to give it a certain hypnotic power (a good example of this is the time Kubrick tribute all a wink and admired) to accompany the trip levels of the protagonist and his dream team.
Although "The Source" requires the full attention of the viewer, in fact the whole film requires it, it will never be lost thanks to the intelligence of its creator than our particular architect, Christopher Nolan, who is giving us information all time cleverly mixed in a puzzle, masterfully assembled by Lee Smith, who plays with reality and dream while keeping the north. If the characters have their own compass, called Totem, to know if in a dream or not, the viewer also has a reference point that makes the difference between the various levels by moving the film. One of the big guns of "The Source" is undoubtedly the star cast. And not just names, they are actors, singers claw and charisma, perfect pieces for the game that Nolan would like to pose to the public. Leonardo DiCaprio shines with a character that feels comfortable, which seems to some that has been created in recent years, has that intensity and drama that he likes so much to express. All around, a team of real estate side (Ken Watanabe, Ellen Page, Michael Caine, Tom Berenger, Pete Postlethwaite), which shine with particular intensity Joseph Gordon-Levitt (starring the awesome fight in the building that turns) , Tom Hardy (giving life to a great character who could have his own movie) Cillian Murphy (who curiously hooded Nolan again, as in the two installments of Batman) and Marion Cotillard (a "femme fatale" in any rule, irresistible and dangerous).
Two hours of film fascinating, fascinating, through a fantasy story wraps us up to a final plan for Nolan cleverly cut to wake from sleep. But like Cobb, and we do not care if what we have seen is a dream or not, in our case what matters is the journey passed, and it has been exciting. "The Source" is a return to the topic that Nolan has developed throughout his career: the search for a Similarly, the need to meet, in one way or another, in this world that has set before our eyes. One that we have not elected but that is where we live. Since his original works ("Following " and "Memento") to its reinvention of the Batman with the fantastic "Batman Begins" and the masterful "Batman: The Dark Knight", making a stop in the icy "Insomnia ", while never forgetting" The Prestige, "Nolan has explored this subject he loves. "Dawn" takes a step further. It is a leap without a net to the exploration of the human being in its most Pure is a futuristic thriller in which nothing is lacking, whose only excess is his own ambition. Dreams, realities, all does not matter. It's a trick. It's magic. It is an illusion, something we've never seen: a new sensation, the experience that has given superlative commercial cinema in God knows how long. How is it possible that someone has come to understand this form of filmmaking, not treated as stupid spectators who flock to the theaters en masse, hoping simply entertainment? I have no such response. Nolan is a magician and I, as a spectator, I do not know their secret: just continue to enjoy their magic.
"Exciting, one of the major works of contemporary fantasy film "
