With the Inception English director Christopher Nolan earned a place among the great directors of the last decade. With a more than solid films that had started with Memento and reached the excellent The Dark Knight, Nolan get now with this film his most personal and original, one that will undoubtedly mark a point high not only in science fiction movies but in general.
DiCaprio is Cobb, a specialist in entering people's dreams and extract ideas and knowledge. In fact, this is done through a technological gadget that allows anyone to enter the human mind, only that Cobb is the best in him. One day, he was hired by the employer Saito (the excellent Ken Watanabe ) to do the opposite of what we usually do: you must enter the dreams of one person, but to insert a new idea. This is Robert Fischer Jr. ( Cillian Murphy), a young entrepreneur who is to inherit his father's company, which Saito want to see ruined. What follows is the way Cobb and his team put together and execute the plan to do the job.
Inception is a great movie. A snorkeling into new territories while largely being raised as a classic film steals (only instead of a Bobeda here to access the human mind). Like any science fiction movie requires a prerequisite, that we believe everything they tell us. Since the going is a fantasy story, but "buy" the premise, it's all profit for us. Nolan (who also wrote the script) gives us a story that, within its own logic, closed on all sides. Another condition we must meet as a spectator is paying due attention to everything we are told, to understand the mechanisms that drive the plot. If we look for a point comparison with another film that appears first in mind is Matrix, with its handling of parallel realities. But Nolan takes his film two, three or four steps ahead. His protagonists navigate dreams within dreams within dreams. When it reaches the climax of the film, the way the orchestra Nolan different levels of reality (or fantasy) is a marvel. A prodigy of film narrative. 
With Di Caprio that is increasingly as an interpreter solvent (here his character is a fugitive who lives a personal drama / psychological work quite complicated professional) and an outstanding cast, Nolan achieved in the midst of so much imagination and technology has also lead to the excitement, with a story that addresses concepts such as loss, reconciliation and redemption. And it establishes within that small elite of filmmakers (Kubrick , Spielberg, Cameron ) getting insert original ideas and concepts of good personal character into a blockbuster. In a world full of remakes, sequels and movies precast, that is something to celebrate and enjoy. A film destined to be a classic. Origin opens in Argentina 29 July 2010.
