	Author	Review
United Kingdom	Nev Pierce Empire	"With physics-defying, thunderous action, heart-wringing emotion and an astonishing performance from DiCaprio, Nolan delivers another true original: welcome to an undiscovered country. (...) Rating: ★★★★★ (out of five)"	POS
United States	Justin Chang Variety	"If movies are shared dreams, then Christopher Nolan is surely one of Hollywood's most inventive dreamers, given the evidence of his commandingly clever 'Inception'"	POS
United States	Kirk Honeycutt The Hollywood Reporter	"In a summer of remakes, reboots and sequels comes 'Inception' easily the most original movie idea in ages (...) Sometimes originality comes at a cost though: At the end, you may find yourself utterly exhausted"	POS
United States	Claudia Puig USA Today	"With 'Inception', writer/director Christopher Nolan not only cements his status as Hollywood's most innovative filmmaker, he has created a daring genre: the surrealist heist thriller"	POS
United States	A. O. Scott The New York Times	"Though there is a lot to see in Inception, there is nothing that counts as genuine vision. Mr. Nolan’s idea of the mind is too literal, too logical, too rule-bound to allow the full measure of madness -- the risk of real confusion, of delirium, of ineffable ambiguity -- that this subject requires."

United States	Roger Ebert Chicago Sun-Times	"It is wholly original, cut from new cloth, and yet structured with action movie basics so it feels like it makes more sense than (quite possibly) it does. (...) Rating: ★★★★ (out of four)"	POS
United States	Kenneth Turan Los Angeles Times	"A tremendously exciting science-fiction thriller that's as disturbing as it sounds. This is a popular entertainment with a knockout punch so intense and unnerving it'll have you worrying if it's safe to close your eyes at night."	POS
