Inception is a mind-bendingly captivating action thriller in which Leonardo DiCaprio plays a master of corporate espionage, Dom Cobb, a thief who extracts secrets from deep within the sub-conscious, during the dream state when we are most vulnerable.

With spectacular locations set around the world, and in the realm of imagination, the giant canvas of the IMAX screen provides a unique backdrop for what has been described as the most innovative and compelling new film of the season.

And here are some of the reviews just in...

Nev Pierce from Empire Magazine gives Inception a rousing IMAX thumbs up: "The images deserve to be untarnished by much explanation — you should see them for yourself and on the biggest screen you can (it’s coming to IMAX — book now) to best appreciate Wally Pfister’s excellent, expansive photography. ...With physics-defying, thunderous action, heart-wringing emotion and an astonishing performance from DiCaprio, Nolan delivers another true original: welcome to an undiscovered country."

Anne Thompson of indieWIRE writes, “Oscar nominations in technical categories are a certainty, but Inception is also a strong contender for multiple nominations, including Best Picture.”

Anton Bitel, in Eye for Film thinks Inception will have you coming back for more. He writes, “You will no doubt need to see Inception more than once to appreciate every nuance of Nolan's carefully balanced ambiguities - but, more importantly, you will also want to.”

Edward Douglass in ComingSoon.net describes Inception as, “Nolan's most personal and daring film…” comparing it to other films such as Memento and proclaiming it as “…his most successful movie in terms of being able to fully realize every nuance of such a rich concept.”

Justin Chang of Variety, comments that, “If movies are shared dreams, then Christopher Nolan is surely one of Hollywood's most inventive dreamers, given the evidence of his commandingly clever Inception.”

The Hollywood Reporter’s Kirk Honeycutt likes the originality of the film’s complex story: “A devilishly complicated, fiendishly enjoyable sci-fi voyage across a dreamscape that is thoroughly compelling. …easily the most original movie idea in ages.”
