In 2010 Christopher Nolan brought us his blockbuster mindfuck, Inception. Originally written as a horror, Inception ended up as a complicated heist flick where one man is offered salvation in return for implanting an idea into another man’s subconscious. Featuring an absolute mammoth cast of Leonardo DiCaprio, Ken Watanabe, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Marion Cotillard, Ellen Page, Tom Hardy, Cillian Murphy, Tom Berenger, and Michael Caine, this film seemed destined for success from the beginning and brought home $836 million from the $160 million budget and a pile of awards and accolades.
