The "Inception" Thread

I don't see how either way it implies a dream. If the kids were older in the last scene it doesn't imply a dream, it merely doesn't rule it out (since you could still say DiCaprio just dreamed his children older as appropriate.

As for depth of character, this is a heist movie. They almost never have any depth of character beyond, at most, a single lead and many great heist movies don't even have that.
