Christopher Nolan is well known for leaving some of his audiences scratching their heads after leaving his movies. Probably the biggest of these was his 2010 movie Inception. The mind-busting movie involved its own kind of multiverse, with the central plot focusing on a heist that happens in many levels of a dream state reality, and the ending sees lead star Leonardo DiCaprio seemingly getting a happy ending with his family. Fans of the movie have frequently questioned exactly what they are seeing in the final moments of the film, questioning whether the ending is real or just another level of the dream. Now, Nolan has cleared up what the ending of the movie means…sort of.
Currently on the promotion tour for his latest movie Oppenheimer, Nolan explained what he believes audiences should take from the final scene of the movie that managed to make everyone question what was real and what was not. He told Wired:
"I mean, the end of Inception, it's exactly that. There is a nihilistic view of that ending, right? But also, he's moved on and is with his kids. The ambiguity is not an emotional ambiguity. It's an intellectual one for the audience."
Does Inception’s Ending Being Real Matter?
Like many movies, Inception is a film that requires a certain amount of concentration to ever be able to keep up with what is happening. There are so many twists and turns in the plot, that the film required multiple viewings to even begin to understand which sequences were real and which were based in the subconscious.
In many ways similar to the “time heist” of Avengers: Endgame, DiCaprio’s character Cobb has to pull off a “dream heist” in order to allow him to be born again in limbo and allow him to be reunited with his children, who he has been separated from for being a wanted man. Having “cleared” his name, Cobb is given his happy ending, but the end of his journey is one that is easy to interpret in a number of ways.
While Nolan has now explained his thoughts on what the ending means and how it should be viewed, in the end Inception is a movie that is as much about the journey as it is the ending. Everyone is still free to interpret Cobb’s final scene as they wish, and although there will be some who are satisfied to know how Nolan intended the scene to play out, there are others who will still not be convinced that everything they saw was still all just part of Inception’s complex dream reality.
For Nolan, he has been moving on in his career through various other movies since the release of Inception, and his latest, Oppenheimer, is almost certain to be a contender for any number of awards in the next year. This time around, the story is much more straightforward to follow, but also much more devastating to watch. You can catch Oppenheimer in theaters from July 21.
