Why Inception Is The Quintessential Nolan Film

Inception Review | The Quintessential Nolan Film
IMDb Top 250 #14
Nolan Retrospective #7

Inception was a project almost a decade in the making and it was a story that Christopher Nolan was very passionate about. He had the basic idea of people entering other's dreams all the way back in 2001, but felt that he wasn't quite ready to tackle that concept just yet. After three smash hits in Batman Begins, The Prestige, and especially The Dark Knight though, Nolan knew he now had the experience necessary to bring his vision to life. Some of Nolan's harshest critics claim however, that Inception represents everything wrong with his filmmaking style. Others have even labeled it a ripoff of an anime released only 4 years earlier. How did Inception gain this controversial reputation? Did Nolan really steal the idea from an anime? And why is Inception often considered the quintessential Nolan movie?

I hope you enjoyed the video. Next week I'll be taking a look at The Dark Knight Rises, the finale to Christopher Nolan's groundbreaking Batman trilogy. If that sounds interesting to you, let me know in the comments and feel free to subscribe. Thanks for watching.
