Is it a dream or reality? The mystery of the ending of "Inception" is finally revealed ten years later

At the end of Christopher Nolan's sci-fi film "Inception", whether the protagonist Cobb is still in the dream is a classic mystery. Recently, one of the veteran actor Michael Caine, one of the leading actors, finally revealed the true ending of the movie.

Recently, at a lecture in London, Michael Caine, who plays Leo's father-in-law in the film, answered this question.

"When I got the script of Inception, I was a little confused. I told the director Christopher Nolan that I couldn't tell the difference between reality and dreams. When was it a dream and when was it reality? The director replied to me, 'Well, when you appear, it's reality. (Because he created the dream and he only appears in reality)' So, you see - if I'm in it, it's reality. If I'm not in it, it's just a dream."

The film ends with Cobb returning to the United States, where he finally clears himself of all the secret charges against him and reunites with his children. More importantly, he also meets his father-in-law, played by Michael Caine. (According to the director, this also means that Cobb has actually returned to reality.)

So, the fact that the spinning top hasn't stopped spinning before the end of the film doesn't mean it won't stop in the end. This is a Nolan movie after all. Leo finally returns to the beautiful and real world. The fans can finally put down their worries after nearly a decade!
