the present
ending of the movie with questions answered
the Plot
Mr saito wants cobb to plot an idea in robert
fishers mind to not to run his father company
after he dies . who is now at the stage of
dying
Cobb who is charged against his wife murder,
is on exile and looking to return to his country
considering this oppertunity cobb accepts
the offer and forms a team to excute it
but he has his own story where he is suffering
from personal issues over his wife death.
so how they go ahead and plot the idea in
robert fisher mind is the plot with cobb personal
story line in the background.
rules of the dream tour
architect is one who designs the dream and teaches the details to the dreamer.
forger is the one who can manipulate his
behavior to resemble some one in the dream
totem - is a unique element which is useful
to identify whether they are in dream or in
reality
limbo is a state where u end up in multiple
year dream if you go too deep into the dream.
where times runs quickly and people forget
what is reality.
5 min in real world is equal to 1 hour
in dream
kick is how u end a dream by disturbing
the equilibrium of the dream.
which can be as simple as falling sensation.
each layer of dream requires separate kick
for you to wake from the dream.
inception is an idea which triggers sequence
of decision within the mind
Flashback
cobb and his wife are both dream explorer
who enter into the dream world and start living
there.
as in dream world u can do anything you want
.
intially they enjoy it & spend 50 years in
it.
but mal gets struck in their and begins to
think that is the reality.
so cobb plants an idea in mal's head that
the world is not real and u need to die in
this world to enter into actual reality.
she agrees to it and they come out of the
dream
but even after coming out mal is fixated on
the idea that the the world is not real and
they should die to release her self to relaity.
finally mal kills herself by making it look
like murder thinking cobb will follow her.
but cobb does not follow her ,
instead escapes from police.
cobb blames himself for mal death because
it was his idea which made mal to kill herself.
this is the reason why always mal tries to
kill cobb or anyone who enters his dream.
cobb carries grief of mals death which is
trying to kill himself
present
Mr saito gives a test to cobb to check their
skills and they pass the test as they are
able to demonstrate dream within a dream.
now saito explains the motive behind inceptions
and cobb assembles a team to get the it done.
they enter the dream with rober fisher,
for idea to work they charcterise the dream
as robert is kidnapped by his uncle and he
is trying to steal the will which is created
by his father.
in dream level 1
he learns that his dad wish is to choose a
different path for him not persue in his footsteps
that is the reason why his
uncle is preventing that.
in dream level 2
but MR Saito gets shot to prevent him going
into the limbo , everyone accelerates the plan
to come out of dream ASAP
in 3rd level of dreams mal kills robert before
finding the truth from his father.
so cobb ariadnne and robest fisher enter into
4th level of dream..
robert learns that his father actually loved
him and he wants him to choose a different
path .
everyone return but MR saito enter into limbo
as he dies in level 3 and cobb stays back
and enters into thr limbo to bring back
Mr.Saito.
we see a shot where mr saito is vary old and
meets cobb who is not that old.
this is because MR saito dies in the 3 rd
dream and cobb enter into the 4 th dream due
to time difference in between the dream.
both look of different ages
then cobb is able to bring back MR saito by
remembering the promise they made to each
other in real world
now i will answer the questions related to
the movie ending
why totem was still running at the end ?
because at the end cobb does not want to know
wheather he is in dream or reality he chooses
the present as the reality and gets back to
his children.
the totem is shown as still running at the
end of the movie to create questions on the
ending on viewers mind.
Mr. cain who plays the role of cobbs father
has publically reported that he learnt from
Nolan itself that all the secnes where he
part of are real
hence the ending is real and cobb returns
to his family
this also answers question on which is dream
and which is reality and which is dream
Why cobb uses Mal's totem ?
this one even i am sure.
my best guess as they were couples they had
shared the secrets of the totem between them
and cobb keeps it in memmory of the Mal.
also it symbolises in way the Guilt cobb has
on Mal death.
thats is why at the end he walks away from
the totem and from the guilt also
How do the never-ending staircases work, and
how was Arthur able to use one without Ariadne,
as the architect, there to alter it
The never-ending staircases are paradoxes
(non logical things which can’t exist in
reality).
Though Ariadne designed the levels and probably
designed the staircase, in the level where
Arthur uses it he's the dreamer. He can change it
If the dream they enter at the end of the
film belongs to Fisher Jr, then why does
Cobb enter the limbo he built with his wife?
Shouldn’t it be Fisher ’s limbo?
The snow fort dream is not Fisher's.
That dream belongs to Eams.
Each level is dreamt by a different member
of Cobb's team, and then Fisher's subconcious
is brought in to fill it.
The first level is dreamed by Yusuf, who then
stays behind to drive the van and initiate
a kick
The second level of Dream  is dreamt by Arthur, who
then stays behind to put them in the elevator
and initiate another kick.
The third level is dreamed by Eams, who again
stays behind to plant explosives all around building,
which drops them and initiates another Kick.
The final level is Limbo.
Limbo is a shared environment not limited
to a single subconscious.
Limbo contains nothing, except the remnants
of whatever might have been built by someone
who has been there before.
Cobb has been there before, so limbo contains
the buildings he and his wife built over the
50 years...
Why did Cobb
use Inception on Mal to convince her to kill
herself?
Couldn't he just
shot her?
Conceivably,
But perhaps Cobb, madly in love with Mal,
simply couldn't bring himself to do it.
