1. Inception Inception, American sci-fi spine chiller film, delivered in 2010, that investigates the limits among dream and reality. inception focuses on agonizing "extractor" Dom Cobb (played by Leonardo DiCaprio) — a cheat who attacks targets' fantasies through a compound prompted shared dream state to take important data. Having gained notoriety for being the most incredible in his business, Cobb is charged by well off financial specialist Mr. Saito (Ken Watanabe) to assume the extraordinary accomplishment of opposite extraction — inspiring a target to think about a thought, also called origin — to kill a business contender. Cobb gathers a group to endeavor the purportedly unimaginable errand: long-term partner Arthur (Joseph Gordon-Levitt), ace controller Eames (Tom Solid), scientist Yusuf (Dileep Rao), and "engineer" Ariadne (Ellen Page), who is responsible for making the dreamscapes the group will possess. To establish the thought, Cobb and his team should slide through a few layers of dreaming to enter the objective's psyche. All the while, notwithstanding, Cobb's own psyche begins to surface — to lamentable impact. The group is over and over frustrated by a subliminal projection of Cobb's dead spouse, Mal (Marion Cotillard), and Cobb himself is compelled to address whether his world is pretty much as genuine as it appears.

Tron is one of my all-time favorite movies, a sci-fi feast that takes place inside a video game world ruled over by the MCP (Master Control Program), a world wherein gladiatorial "programs" battle it out for supremacy, riding rainbow-spewing laser bikes, and going up against floating robot menaces that transform their legs into giant crushing, killing presses. The world is stark, yet weirdly beautiful, an outgrowth of the imagination that conceived a cyberspace realm and brought it to life for the characters to occupy as alternate versions of their meatspace selves. It was groundbreaking stuff in 1982; hence, it flopped at the box office, only attaining cult status in the intervening years, as technology has caught up with and surpassed the virtual world envisioned by the filmmakers.
Temporal Reverse Engineering
Introduction This title is taken from a phrase in the final book of Douglas Adams' five-volume trilogy "The Hitch Hiker's Guide To The Galaxy" ("Mostly Harmless") and that got me thinking.
