Being in a dream of a dream,
within a dream of a dreaming person seems to be unlikely and at the same time
not feasible but in the world of motion picture, everything is possible.
That seems to be main idea presented by the veteran, Christopher Nolan in creating the science-fiction film entitled Inception. It was produced by Warner Bros. Pictures and starred Leonardo DiCaprio as the lead character.
The gist of the story is about the attempt of a group of believers who think that they can actually alter the perception of other people and even their world by entering to their dreams and started incepting thoughts that will eventually be constructed as their reality. In doing so, they will try to break science and discover what imaginations and dreams can do to make things possible.
When we start dealing with psychology, different factors are needed to be put into consideration because an individual’s mind moves in a not so particular way. Moreover, if memories begin to play along with what we should be thinking, that’s the time that the person can be lost in a limbo. If that happens, it will be hard for him to delineate the difference between dreams and reality.
To that effect, the whole production successfully crafted every scene that makes the viewers actually believe that such things can happen.
At first, I was a bit lost in the film since their main plan is to be in a dream of a dream within a dream of a dreaming human. Dreaming of you dreaming can easily be thought through but talking about four dimensions and even more, and try meddling with what is in your dreams, now that sound impossible and hard to comprehend.
However, their setting, the manner by which every actor changes their portrayal and even their lines make it ideal. After watching Inception, it was funny but I actually believe that I could be living only in a dream since I was totally grasped by the plot of the film. I even looked for a totem (a symbol which you can use so as you can identify if you’re in the real world) just to really know if I’m not dreaming.
The twist or turn of events was also good that it’s hard to close your eyes for every scene is truly heart-pounding. It’s been a long time since I watched an action-packed film and Inception made me feel that every breath-taking scene was worth it. Right treatment of music also suits the film. It is not too dramatic and at the same time, it adds up to the effect that you are also inside the film that you are watching.
I would like to commend all the men behind the film Inception for they pulled it well. It’s not a waste of time to watch it again and I will not miss a chance to watch it in 3D effect.
What I like in the film is that I can easily connect what I saw to what is happening in the real world. In the film, they tell us that it is not bad to dream. It is one of the sublime gifts of the mind that man has. What’s bad is living in a dream and actually choosing it to be your reality.
In life, after all the trials and sufferings that we are experiencing, sometimes dreaming can only be the greatest escape that we can have. So you cannot blame those people who tried making their dreams their new created world.
When you’re dreaming, you enter into a world that is entirely yours. You can choose all the things that you like and make it work for you as easy as possible. In real world, we simply box ourselves with easy choices that we forgot to think that life is about sacrifices.
We simply cannot mix dreams with reality. Dreams can only be found inside one’s mind while reality is where you are standing right now. It may be full of miseries but that’s the truth. It’s not about what’s easy but it’s about what is true to all. Everyone has different mindsets and each of them has their own dreams so living in a dream is tantamount to being selfish since it is only your mind that you are putting into consideration.
Being real would entail a lot of things and it might be hard but neither did
anyone say that it will not be fulfilling. After all, a life lived with great
experiences that you first considered to be beyond your limits is surely a
fruitful one.
