Inception (2010)
Movie: Inception (2010)
“Dom Cobb is a skilled thief, the absolute best in the dangerous art of extraction, stealing valuable secrets from deep within the subconscious during the dream state, when the mind is at its most vulnerable. Cobb’s rare ability has made him a coveted player in this treacherous new world of corporate espionage, but it has also made him an international fugitive and cost him everything he has ever loved. Now Cobb is being offered a chance at redemption. One last job could give him his life back but only if he can accomplish the impossible-inception. Instead of the perfect heist, Cobb and his team of specialists have to pull off the reverse: their task is not to steal an idea but to plant one. If they succeed, it could be the perfect crime. But no amount of careful planning or expertise can prepare the team for the dangerous enemy that seems to predict their every move. An enemy that only Cobb could have seen coming.

Goofs: Plot holes: When in a dream, time passes 20x slower, so 10 hours on the plane translates to 7 days on the first dream level, which translates to 6 months on the second. The explanation given for this is that outside of a dream you are only using 5% of your brain capacity, whereas you are using 100% in a dream. However, this does not account for why there is another 20x slow-down in the second level of a dream – there can be no further increase in the use of brain capacity.See »
