    question about the movie Inception

    good movie but too dam complicated. it's one of those flicks you have to see a few times to get it. i hate that.
    However, i do have a question: (by the end of the film) why did they have to go into DeCaprio's dream to "rescue" the guy they were trying to convince to break up the company? They rescued him then he awoke from the difibulator.
    Fkin confusin.
    yay!

    When you go too many levels deep in the dreams and die you get tossed into a "neverland" type of place, lost. He had to go find him. They mentioned this a few times throughout the movie explaining what happens at each level as they go deeper.

    neverland = limbo

    once lost on limbo you don't wake up. you stay in a dream state.
    they needed him to wake up so that he could follow through with the idea they had planted in his mind.

    so they went into limbo through DeCaprio's dreams? That's kinda sayin that all people meet at the same limbo.
    But DeCaprio's wife was holding that guy in limbo?!

    i guess....
    yay!

    from that link above

    Level one, with the van, was dreamed by Yusuf (Dileep Rao).
    Level 2 in the hotel was dreamed by Arthur (Joseph Gordon-Levitt).
    Level 3 with the snow fort was dreamed by Eams (Tom Hardy).
    The final level was Limbo and dreamed by no one, since it's a place of shared consciousness.

    I think they were in a dream the whole time lol, also at the end when he was with his kids the top never stopped spinning.

    Plus, if it was real life at that time wouldn't his kids have aged?

    It is a good movie, but although I am not a fan of Angelina Jole, Salt is action packed from start to finish. Saw Inception first, followed by Salt.

    the movie is not that complicated like what has been said. Leo damn near explains everything throughout the entire movie to the point where I was like stfu already and let them find out for themselves.. It's no puzzle, and you don't have to see it twice.
