Inception is a two and a half hour mind-bending dive into the human psyche.

Filled with dreamscapes, espionage and maybe a few too many "BWAAAAMMM" sound effects, it's a film that must be watched multiple times. Or, instead of all that, you can just get all of the information you need in our three-minute summary, the latest installment of our TL;DW (Tool Long; Didn't Watch) series.

We know what you're thinking: "There is no way to sufficiently and accurately explain a film as complex as Inception in such a short time." Point taken! Your instinct is correct -- we wish we had instincts like yours.

Unfortunately, we made the episode anyway.
