I'm not sure if there's already a movie created that's similar to this but I think Christopher Nolan might have created something original here. Nolan brought something fresh on the table with his exploration on dreams and the movie's concept of stealing and planting of an idea.
Despite the movie looking cool and massive, I can't help but get the feeling I had when I watch Memento. Similarly, I felt like I haven't seen anything like it before but it's basically just it. Both of the films, in my opinion, boasts in style but offers pretty simple plot (if you really think about it).
Simple plot is not a bad thing. But in the case of Inception, it felt so overwhelming complex and sometimes, tedious. It's visually beautiful but felt emotionally empty. The absurdity and rejection of realism is understandable but the moments of humaness feels lacking due to the constant chase and over-the-top visual effects.
Nonetheless, I still had fun watching it and would recommended everyone to see it.
