"Your mind is the scene of the crime..."

Okay. Up until yesterday, I was going "Huh?" with virtually every thing I saw for Christopher Nolan's upcoming summer thriller "Inception." I mean, what I saw still struck me as kinda cool, but I couldn't get over the confusion I felt about it.

Now that I've seen the new trailer that's currently playing before select prints of "Iron Man 2," however, the confusion factor is still there...but dang, the wow factor is ten times stronger.

From what I can tell, "Inception" stars Leonardo DiCaprio--an actor who I've decided I'll watch in anything--as a member of a criminal gang or whatever who steals things from people's dreams. Or does he implant them in instead? Or both? I couldn't really tell.

Actually, I can't really tell you anything beyond that about the plot in hindsight...but everything that I saw made sense when I was watching the trailer. And it looks really good, with the epic scope that Nolan is famous for, and as an added bonus, his favorite actor Sir Michael Cane is in it too.

I've been wondering for a while if "Inception" would be able to find an audience, largely because it at first seemed to me like a movie that was so high concept that it could give many people a headache. Now I find that I'm really, really hoping for this to be a hit, and my gut feeling is telling that folks just might show up for this one after all.

There's a line spoken by Leo's character near the end of the trailer: "In dreams, everything makes sense. Only when you wake up do you realize that something was weird." That sounds like how I'd describe this preview.

I will try to get a review up for "Iron Man 2" really, really soon. As for some of the other stuff I said I'd post, that doesn't look like it'll happen, although I may still write a review about "Kick-Ass" for the heck of it...even though it's been about three weeks since I saw it now. In any case, look for more updates from Dacey here soon.
