Christopher Nolan's Inception is one of the iconic science fiction action films. The film was released back in 2010 and was based on the idea of lucid dreaming. Nolan had set his mind to creating Inception in 2002 itself.

Inception was a massive hit at the box office and went on to win four Oscars for Best Cinematography, Best Sound Editing, Best Sound Mixing, and Best Visual Effects. It also was nominated for various other awards.
