During the dream state, they have limited control over the experience, similar to The Matrix.)11. Meanwhile, since Fischer was shot on the third level and sent to Limbo, his "bodies" on the other two levels were totally fine.

(The music only slows down when listened to from a lower level, due to the time dilation at that level. Edit, These numbers ("528491") were the same ones that Fischer Jr. randomly came up with for the team when he was being held hostage. Edit, "Non, je ne regrette rien" is the signature song of the French songstress dith Piaf (1915-1963). The room she lured Cobb to is trashed because she is setting up a crime scene that will implicate Cobb in her death. Upon returning to reality, Mal gradually became convinced what she thought was the real world is really just another dream and tried to convince Cobb they should "wake" themselves up by killing themselves. After getting kicked back to Yusuf's dream, they therefore needed to wait out those remaining 6 days before the sedative wore off and they woke up naturally.They no longer experience trouble from Fischer's subconscious because it doesn't attack until Fischer gets kidnapped. It suggests to the viewer that this is exactly the same as his memory, and thus he could be still dreaming. But the idea stuck in her head and she still thought she was dreaming, leading to Cobb's current predicament. Does it matter? The Penrose stairs being an impossible structure, this movie presents us with an impossible concept/dilemma that the movie can be either reality or dream depending on how you look at the arguments. Throughout the movie, we can see Cobb spinning this top to remind himself of where he is and what's happening. Press question mark to learn the rest of the keyboard shortcuts. In no way was Mal his reality check-it is quite the opposite.)8. Since Arthur is the Dreamer, all he needs to do is to change the room number(s). What significance did the numbers on the piece of paper that Eames gives Fischer Jr. have? What is the significance of the name "Ariadne"? Fischer, as he is for dream levels 1 and 2, is the "subject" of the dream. Does Judy kill herself in Dead to Me? A short-duration spin is a visual property that someone could easily recreate in a dream. It is showed at the end that Cobb and Mal did grow old together for 50 years in Limbo with them walking the streets as old man and woman, two old hands hold together on the train tracks.5. He was living in France yet was waiting at the airport in the States (reason why MIles was there: When Cobb visited Miles it was to give him a gift for his children, i.e. Edit, "Mr. Charles" is a gambit designed to alert the Target (Fischer) to turn against his own subconscious by telling him that he's dreaming and pointing out the strangeness of it all, gaining his trust in order to move forward with the mission at hand as quickly as possible. After Saito wakes from his dream on the train, he feels his wrist, which shows no evidence of needle puncture, etc. But how does one determine if they're dreaming without realizing it? Why didn't the others bring own problems/projections in the dreams? Dom Cobb is a skilled thief, the absolute best in the dangerous art of extraction, stealing valuable secrets from . So at the end of the shooting script Nolan writes "And we-FADE OUT." Also, there are simple explanations as to why when he sees his kids again they look much like they did in his dream. Edit, In Greek Mythology, she was considered the "Mistress of the Labyrinth". Edit, The team knew the number beforehand, when Fischer told them. Cobb is essentially stuck in a coma-state in the real world, where Mal and others are continuously entering his dream and trying to figure out how to convince Cobb he's still dreaming and wake him back to reality. Christopher Nolan's sci-fi movie leaves viewers constantly wondering whether what they're seeing is a dream, a dream within a dream (sometimes within another dream), or the film's version of reality assuming that's not just a dream in the head of its protagonist, Dom Cobb (Leonardo DiCaprio). So she may have been in denial, but she didn't not know per se. That being said, Inception seems to argue it doesn't matter; Cobb knows what's important to him (beingreunited with his children), and he will simply live out his life and wait to see what comes next. When you arrived in the dream you would be aware what it was because you had prepared yourself for it. Edit, The sedative lasts for ten hours, which gives the team a week on the first level. The room behind her is fine. The last kick we see (the van falling off the edge) wakes everyone but Cobb and Saito up (who are in Limbo) but then they're all seen breathing in the van for a while. Their real world weapon abilities would have no effect here. However, the dreamers in level 2 (specifically Eames, as level 3 is Eames' dream) aren't feeling zero gravity, since they're experiencing a lack of gravity. As was shown by Cobb and Saito waking up after being in Limbo (saito for a LONG time apparently) they snap right back into real life memories and all intact just like when we wake up from regular dreams you are back in the game in a few minutes. Here she shows a more sinister side: if he doesn't join her in jumping off the ledge willingly out of love for her, she has made it so he might be pressured to jump unwillingly to avoid being framed for her murder. It can be assumed that this also works conversely: remembering what happened in reality when entering a dream. He uses a dream-sharing device to get into people's dreams and steal . Saito wasn't in there a long time really, he had just gotten lost. One relatively easy way of keeping it straight is that the person whose dream it is stays behind in order to keep an eye on the place. (They are in a dream world during all scenes involving weapon use. It is also implied that the more layers deep you go, the more unstable the dreams become, and that 3 layers deep is needed for inception (more than 3 layers is rarely, if ever, done). Create an account to follow your favorite communities and start taking part in conversations. What did Cobb do to Mal? (All scripts start with Fade In and end with Fade Out)Alternatively, Nolan is showing that what we commonly believe to be reality exists during the film, and that Cobb is indeed in what we'd call "reality" at the end of the film. It's only when we wake up that we realize something was actually strange. Edit, 1. Inception study guide contains a biography of director Christopher Nolan, literature essays, quiz questions, major themes, characters, and a full summary and analysis. It's also possible she hoped that if he didn't jump, he'd be sentenced to death and upon execution, would join her. Why was there never an Inception 2? Cobb forgives both Mal and himself, releases his regrets, and so heals his past (another key theme of ACIM). Edit, Since Mal is Cobb's projection, if he knows her, then Mal should know her as well. The fact that she completely ruined Cobb's life so that he would follow her is proof of that. Published Jul 16, 2020. While normally in order to wake up you must receive a kick in the level above, this isn't true when using the special sedative. Edit, The original plan is to have the floor of the hotel room drop out from underneath the dreamers and thus provide the "kick" that wakes them upspecifically Eames who is "hosting" the dream in the snowy mountains. The main mission is Eames' dream (the snow fort) inside Arthur's dream (the hotel) inside Yusuf's dream (the city). In either case or both cases, it's possible that what we see or gather from exposition is Cobb's imperfect and guilt-filled recollection of the events, which aligns perfectly with the "metaphysics" of the movie's narrativethat the world is what one makes of it. The curtains were not in Yusuf's bathroom-they are the same curtains as in the hotel room, Cobb was just remembering of her.)7. Whatever the case might be, she's a cautionary tale that illustrates what Dom means when he talks about the power of ideas (comparing them to a"highly contagious" virus that can "grow to define or destroy you") and why Inception isn'ta process to be carried out casually on anyone. Thus in the movie, Ariadne serves as the "mistress of the labyrinth" both in the obvious sense of devising dream labyrinthine architecture, and in the more subtle sense of leading Cobb out of his mental imprisonment. In that way the whole movie is in fact a psychological drama presented within a view from the inside of a man's extremely troubled soul. Yet throughout the movie he was directly or indirectly responsible for either killing her or imprisoning her, in essence losing his sense of reality and refusing to face up to the facts-which may be that he was indeed dreaming the whole time. Is Eames the Dreamer for the third level or Fischer? What is the time frame for each dream level? When Cobb explains to Ariadne what happened to Mal, he mentions that at first Mal seemed alright but then she started acting differently and eventually she told him what had been troubling her; that she thought they were still dreaming. Edit, Cobb explains that he and Mal escaped Limbo the first time by killing themselves, which is a normal way to wake up from a dream under regular sedation. These seemingly everyday objects (like a top or a die) have beenaltered or modified,but only in a way their owner knows (for example, Joseph Gordon-Levitt's Arthur has a loaded die). I'm certain that because they got lost in limbo they also forgot that they were dreaming. Cobb is the Extractor, Nash is the level 1 Dreamer and Architect while Arthur is the Point Man and level 2 Dreamer. I would say that Mal is sabotaging Cobb's team because she is a representation of his failure and guilt over his actions leading to his actual wife's suicide. When he found the lock and the top, he made it spin, so that Mal would believe "this is a dream". The kids at the end of the film are different and are older compared to the younger ones we've seen throughout the film. This is due to the unforeseen circumstances such as Fischer's subconscious being trained (heavily armed and capable of finding the intruders quickly) and Saito is hurt and dying, so their mission needs to be completed as quickly as possible. As Cobb explains to Ariadne: "Build a bank vault or a jail, something secure, and the subject's mind will fill it with information he's trying to protect." She also appears as one of the tritagonists in the fourth novel Escape From The Isle of The Lost. Kick: the van hit through the barrier and off the bridge.In Level 2, time in the dream: 6 months. But in fact he's still in a dream and trapped.Yet for an inception to work, one must accept it as one's own thought process so of course Nolan does not give interviews where he says, "This is a movie where I'm trying to wake people up to the fact that they're dreaming. Nolan allows the viewer to make his/her own assumptions based upon their optimistic/pessimistic worldview, but Nolan's in one of optimism, as can be seen in all his other films. You could say that about any behavior of any object in the whole movie. She was hedging her bets in trying to ensure he would wind up dying in every scenario to join her in what she believed would be the real world. She believed reality was just another dream and wanted him to suicide with her in order to "wake up". And so "Mal" ("bad" / "evil" in Latin, French, Spanish and Portuguese) is undone by Forgiveness. What is the significance of the Penrose stairs in relation to the structure and meaning of the movie? Edit, Mal created the idea of a totem to help figure if one's dreaming or awake. She lures Cobb to the room across from her so she can try to convince him to die with her, without giving him any chance of stopping her. Usually, the Kick is a fall. Mal revealed that she was convinced that she was still dreaming and had created a situation where if he chose not to join her, he would be incriminated in her death and he would lose custody of their children. Edit, The decaying world was not Cobb's Limbo. Cobb, who entered Limbo through the machine (not via death) now dies (either in the hospital, elevator, van, or all three, it doesn't really matter). Isn't a dreamer supposed to be alone in Limbo? Given at the way Sirius shifts into Padfoot right away and Ginny visibly winces, Harry assumes the sudden unease crawling . She kept thinking that she wan't in the real world, when in fact she was. Wendy faces the ghost of a dragon, a cursed mansion, and other tough challenges, desperate to prove herself as a Fairy Tail member. At this point, Cobb is currently dying in all 3 levels (in 3, crushed by the exploding snow fortress; in 2, in the crashing elevator; in 1, left to drown in the van.) Earlier in the movie Arthur tells Ariadne that if Yusuf kicks too early (i.e., if he drives the van off the bridge before Arthur has a chance to kick the group out of Eames' dream), they won't wake up. Meaningful Name: "Cobb" means "dream" in Sanskrit, Hindi, Urdu, and Punjabi. Throughout the film, Cobb's team prepares thoroughly for the Inception job: they study Ariadne's models (with the exception of Cobb), they go through the scenarios, etc. He will never see his children's faces unless he gets back to them.3. Even before it hit theaters on Friday, Christopher Nolan's "Inception" was one of the year's most talked-about movies, and one of its most argued-over. Edit, Eames is the "dreamer" for the third level. When we wake up, in effect we are waking into a world that is illusory.A separate movement believes in the specific idea that humanity is collectively dreaming a dream of guilt and separation, from which we need to wake up by practicing forgiveness. In the film, Cobb pulled a "Mr. Charles" on Fischer due to the time constraints. At the end of the movie he isn't wearing the ring. Notice that when Cobb is in his "Memory bank" with Ariadne, Cobb is looking out the window at his kids, he tells Ariadne that his greatest regret is not being able to alter this moment and see his children's beautiful faces again. Cobb's children are always on his mind, just like Mal, but by the time he is in Limbo at the beginning/end he has cleared his mind of Mal, but not his children. When the elevator hit the ground floor and the group was kicked by the van hitting the water, they were pulled out of Eames' dream (the snow fortress) and simultaneously pulled out of Arthur's dream (the hotel) back into Yusuf's dream (the van). They then went there and started creating stuff, remaining there for decades. From Redditor u/ GibbyGibsonUSC: Cobb is the one stuck in a dream; when Mal killed herself, she actually woke up in reality. For strong sedatives, if the timer in the dream machine didn't expire, you're still back in Limbo, unaware of the fact that you're still in there/the awareness that it's a dream becomes vague. That would imply that was Cobb's inception to himself. Inception is so powerful that Mal was absolutely convinced that they were still dreaming. Ariadne is new, so there's none of her projections in there.) Why are Cobb's projections of his wife and kids there? If one kick failed because it wasn't synchronized, they could try another while using the musical countdown to warn the next level that it was coming. NEXT: The Inception Prequel Comic to Revisit Tenet's Delay. There seems to be some effect of Yusuf driving through the barrier (and the loss of gravity in the hotel) inside Eames' dream, however, when the team is surprised by the sudden avalanche. Edit, The film doesn't say, but from earlier statements, Chris Nolan declared that the film is supposed to be contemporary. Edit, Limbo is a very deep dream state where a few hours in the real world last for decades. Based on Saito's age in the palace, it could be about 50 years has passed. The sound of the top falling over is played after the credits indicating that it is indeed "reality", but the important part is that Cobb is not looking at it, because as Nolan says, "He doesn't care. The ending simply reflects the fact that the idea that killed Mal has now taken over Cobb; he cannot discern whether he is now living in a dream or a reality, and we, the audience, witness that intimately. They were stuck in limbo. It is made apparent throughout the film that the dreamers are fully aware of what they're doing because they've trained ahead of time. Warner Bros. As a result of his partial responsibility for his wife's death, Cobb is so eaten up with grief that he keeps his sharpest memories of Mal in caged rooms that only he can visit at . Nolan is famous for using characters that have some kind of psychological turmoil. As long as you are enjoying it, what's the problem? Certainly the children appear to be a similar age, and to be wearing similar clothing. When Cobb asked Ariane to leave at the end, he still had two jobs left. Gravity alone is not enough to awaken the dreamers, but when the lift hits the roof at the top of the shaft, the sudden stopping or slowing-down causes the dreamers to first be propelled upwards, and then fall back to the floor. Yusuf's kick (van freefall) was too early due to Fischer's projections attacking, and thus, the kicks weren't synchronized. And, in fact, it is because he doesn't jump that he ends up framed for her murder, which would motivate Cobb to follow after Mal and commit suicide to avoid a life sentence. But these are memoriesfresh in his mind due to the fact that he just woke up from dreaming about the time Mal and he spent in Limbo together. That's why it's dangerous. That is the resolution.)8. So whether the top stops or continue spinning, it's not important as even when it stops, it could be that Cobb believes that he finally reunite with his family, hence his dream fully becomes his reality. Method: Eames disguises and impersonates Browning, Fischer's godfather and convinces him that his father loves him and doesn't want him to follow his footsteps. Unlike Mal and Cobb who went there deliberately, he went there by dying and they said that when he woke up in limbo he could easily lose himself. Edit, Although no one can prove it one way or another, unless that person is Chris Nolan, it is hard to say. Edit, It is not really Saito's safe. Also, it is stated that in Limbo a person's awareness of the passage of time may not be accurate. And then he added the idea that they needed to suicide together to wake up.But, when they were back awake, she kept that idea. What did Cobb putting a spinning top inside the safe mean? Imagine, if you will, that you could predict what dream you were going to have tonight and you could prepare for it. Edit, This is a storytelling device. The reason it was filled with Cobb and Mal's city was because Cobb had spent 50 years there. Love ventures under, the rest all never" come from in one of the interviews of the movie? Having spent so much time there, Cobb filled Limbo with his dream memories of his and Mal's previous Limbo city. If she had just shot him again down in Limbo, he would have ended up in Limbo again. Limbo isn't shared among everybody in the world, it's only shared by the team that's sharing their dreams. Why didnt they experience zero gravity in the snowy mountains if theire bodies was in zero gravity in the hotel. If the air hostess was clearly in on the First Class setup, why did Cobb have to sneak the drug into the drink? He even said himself earlier in the film that no matter how hard he tried, he, "can't change this moment." Before the time period in which the movie is set, Mallorie killed herself. How did Cobb and Saito end up in the same Limbo? She thought it was a dream and it was basically driving her insane. Kick: Drop from exploding the hospital floor.All the kicks are synchronized. The first time, the words are those of Saito (Ken Watanabe), in his helicopter in Kyoto, when he first approaches Cobb about the possibility of inception. She killed herself because inception by Cobb caused her to be unaware of what was reality, even when she was in the real world. As we reach the ending of Inception . A thief who steals corporate secrets through the use of dream-sharing technology is given the inverse task of planting an idea into the mind of a C.E.O., but his tragic past may doom the project and his team to disaster. Until he finally succeeds and is taken to see his children. In a basic dream, a simple Single Kick is enough to wake the Dreamer up by one level of dream. He might even discoverMal was right and she's been waiting for him in the real-world for a few hours since she "killed" herself (what with time working differently in dreams versus reality). Marion Cotillard, who plays Mal, also portrayed Piaf in La Vie en Rose (and won an Academy Award for it), which caused Nolan to seriously consider taking the song out before being convinced by Hans Zimmer to keep it. The dream collapses since the Dreamer is absent. In order to get Mal to kill herself and return to the real world, Cobb performed Inception on her, planting the idea that the world wasn't real in her mind. A few minutes later, Saito wakes up. Edit, Since Fischer has been told that he is in a dream and is being protected by his subconscious projections, he could simply assume that Saito is one of these projections, or as he is shown to not be fully aware of the current affairs of his father's business, Fischer Jr. may not have known or seen Saito before. That never happened, and it never will. Mal dies from Ariadne's gunshot wound and Cobb dies from Mal's knife wound. Cobb is told by Ariadne that the key to him undoing the nightmarish situation in which he is entrapped with Mal is forgiveness. That way, if they want to test whether they're in a dream or not, they merely need to check their totem and see if it "feels" right and/or abides by the laws of physics as only they know it should. As stated earlier in the movie, Limbo is "unconstructed dream space". The violent one. Anyway, it's very improbable he'd want his son to break his empire.

Because they are all sharing their dreams, nobody else had been there and they had no plans prepared there, all that exists is Cobb's. The machine is a plot device that somehow allows the experience of shared subconscious during dreaming, and it also apparently rapidly induces REM sleep (the phase of sleep in which dreaming takes place). In the ending Cobb is still in a dream. Saito now occupies this palace in Limbo where he has been stuck for many years. It arrived for online streaming on January 1, 2020. If Cobb and Mal aged 50 years in limbo, why were they young again on the train tracks? Both theories are possible.Evidence to Reality: If we accept that the entire movie is not a dream, and that Cobb did in fact escape his limbo with Mal, then it is reasonable to believe he also escaped his limbo with Saito. During the helicopter scene, Saito relates to Cobb his personal fear of becoming an old man filled with regret. (Cobb wouldn't want to do this because he states that his recreation of her in his dreams "isn't good enough" because it doesn't truly capture what she was in real life, with all her perfection and flaws. In this theory, sometime between the 2nd and the 3rd test he's locked in a dream, by some unknown group.

Have we witnessed it stop, the movie would be essentially telling us "fear not, this is real and a happy end".
