“Inception” made its midnight premiere last night at midnight to crowded theaters, with fans flocking to see Christopher Nolan’s newest thriller.

“Inception” is said to be a thriller based on a team of specialists hired to steal from a person’s subconscious. Moviegoers shelled out a total of $3,000,000 for the first run of the movie last night, which only had a run of 2,200.

From the trailer, it sounds like a really good movie, but it is a bit overhyped. Usually, critics will run with the good ones, though, so it’s likely that this is going to rake in some serious dough over the weekend.

The movie stars Leonardo DiCaprio, Ellen Page, Joseph Gordon-Leavitt, Michael Caine, Tom Hardy, Marion Cotillard and Cillian Murphy, among others.

Check out the trailer, below:

Critics have already said that you could be “spoiled” on the very ending of this movie and still not have any idea of what it’s about unless you’ve watched the whole thing. I can’t wait to see it, it looks intriguing, and bonus, it’s got Leo!
