Inception is a sci-fi action film about a thief who possesses the power to enter into the dreams of others. Dom Cobb (Leonardo DiCaprio) doesn't steal things, he steals ideas. By entering himself deep into the subconscious of his targets, he can gain information that even the best computer hackers can't get to. In the world of corporate spying, Cobb is the ultimate weapon. But even weapons have their weakness, and when Cobb loses everything, he's forced to embark on one final mission in a desperate quest for redemption.
This time, Cobb won't be taking an idea but making up one. If he and his team of specialists succeed, they will have discovered a breakthrough in the art of psychic spying. They've planned everything to perfection, and they have all the tools to get the job done. Their mission is complicated, however, by the sudden appearance of a foe called that seems to know exactly what they're up to, and precisely how to stop them. As Cobb returns to his home and embraces his children, the final shot of the film shows Mal's (his wife) metal top spinning on and on, hinting that Cobb, after all, may not have successfully returned to "reality."
However, just before the film cuts to black, the metal top begins to wobble, which indicates that this is not a dream, confirming that Cobb was successful in his mission, and is in reality, reunited with his family.
