Inception

Wow. Just wow. I love this movie. Absolutely love it. I caught it this afternoon with a friend and immediately came home and downloaded the Hans Zimmer piece, Time, because it is absolutely gorgeous (I'll probably end up purchasing the whole album but for now I'm more than satisfied just listening to to this piece incessantly). With rock and electronic motifs artfully blended into an orchestral back drop, it is hauntingly beautiful and emotionally provocative. It is powerful and bracingly loud, and amps up the suspense in every scene. Wow. Just wow.
"My goal for the score was to create a complete sonic world to immerse the audience - big waves of sound that connect the different layers of dreaming but really focus on a simple emotional thread." -- Hans Zimmer

Is grandma interested in having TWO kids for the weekend? Hen's a terror! I mean, he's the sweetest thing on the planet and a completely lovely child every moment of the day. Enjoy the movie but pee beforehand, it's a long one!
