I watched the movie Inception directed by Christopher Nolan starring many A list actors such as Leonardo DiCaprio, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Ken Watanabe and Ellen Paige, those just being a few. Leonardo DiCaprio plays the protaganist Dom Cobb whom is a corporate spy and thief. His job is to secretly extract valuable commercial information from the unconcious mind of his targets while they are asleep and dreaming. He is offered a job that if completed successfully will allow him to have his old life back and see his kids. He is to do "inception;" plant an idea into a target's subconscious. While watching the movie it made my mind go on a crazy and complicated ride. It made me think the hardest I had ever had to think but that's what I loved about it. I loved the complicated and intricate storyline that made its viewers never stop thinking and processing. This relates to the key concept media construct reality because the movie makes you believe that what is happening could be real life, a dream or a figment of memory. It makes its viewers go on the same complicated mission the characters are on.
