3 sci-fi elements in inception are evidence of advanced technology, alternate location setting and science is important in story.
Evidence of advanced technology is the advancement of brain activity and knowing how to use it. It is shown by the ability to change things in a dream world. This is achieved because your brain is more active when you sleep. It is so realistic it seems real. This is shown in the entire movie and is explained when Dom and the Ariadne are first testing her mind.This has enhanced the movie due to the fact that it is a key part to the movie.
Evidence of alternate location setting is when they fall asleep they go into the dream world. They can change and alter things as they want. Another location place is limbo. it is when they die and lose themselves in a dream that doesn't stop. They can be there for years. This has enhanced the movie. Dom and Mal get stuck in limbo for 50 years.
Evidence that science is important in the movie is when they use a sleeping sedative to stay asleep for 24 hours. It is used to enter several layers of the dream. This enhances the movie because it allows the characters to find many things.They only way they can wake up when using this sedative is a ``kick``. In other words the person cant wake up unless their equilibrium is disturbed, such as falling over.
You have given a good explanation for how each element is incorporated into the story, although I feel you could have used a bit more explanation in terms of how each one enhanced the movie. Did the alternate locations entertain/add interest for you? Or were they confusing? Does the incorporation of science draw you in because it makes the movie more realistic?
