He does this by merging different genre elements in one coherent story that sweeps up the imagination into a wicked experience about dreams and subconscious desires. And with 'Inception,' he creates another stirring and dramatic action movie, successfully delivering a rather unoriginal plot in a highly entertaining, powerfully spellbinding and visually striking motion picture. In his relatively short career as a feature-length director, Nolan has surprised and amazed audiences with one excellent film after another, almost topping himself every time. Actually, it's deceptively simple and stylishly elementary. What's truly impressive and extraordinary about Christopher Nolan's latest action feature is that he makes the entire thing feel like something new and innovative, as if the story were a highly complex and puzzling labyrinth meant to confound and mystify the imagination. David Lynch ('Mulholland Drive') and David Cronenberg ('Videodrome') have essentially and effectively cornered and mastered such intellectual activity into a genre unto itself. We've seen several films feature plots involving dreams-within-dreams and questions about differentiating reality from illusion.
Many of the concepts, ideas, and themes explored in 'Inception' are neither novel nor wholly original.
