It's a magician's secret. I won't expose it. But if someone guesses it correctly, I will PM them.

First, I am a huge fan of Memento, Inception, and The Prestige. The good: Nolan once again borrows from past films in a delightful way: 2001 Space Odyssey, Armageddon, and Gravity. (Also, Contact.) The space scenes and other planets are done well and the acting by MM and others is very good. The non...

Leonard is not Sammy. But, it is Leonard who took a million notes and got lost. (look at all of his papers back in the hotel) Sammy couldn't even write down "Ellen called".

I didn't realize before that Eames played with a poker chip while they were planning things in the warehouse.

Well, that's not Cobb's totem. He himself says it isn't his. It was his wife's, remember? Alright, back to ...

My question is, 'Since Fischer was doubly drugged and would still remain asleep, wouldn't Saito and Cobb actually land in Fischer's dream before waking up? No. No one was drugged more than anyone else. The last kick, kicked errrbody except Cobb and Saito to level one i.e. Yusuf's dream where they w...

This is a film version of a book. In the book there are slight differences but the machine works. I like your idea that Root would be there, but you are simply reading into the film. The trick is that at one point, Angier believes that Bordon had played a trick, which was to have Tesla pretend to bu...
