What do you think happened at the end of Inception?

[Sour Patch]

I just rewatched Inception for the first time in a couple of years. As always I am still wondering whether or not Cobbs made it out of the dream world.

 

 

What do you think happened at the end of Inception?

It's open to interpretation. I think he got out of the dream in the end.

It's been a while since the last time I watched the movie so i'm not sure, but if my memory isn't tricking me, his token didn't stop, did it? So it's very likely that Cobb didn't made it out of the dream world.

It's starts wobbling right before the screen cuts black.

He's still dreaming

I think that making it out of the dream world interpretation doesn't make sense.

 

Cobbs' problem was supposedly that he couldn't enter US to see his children. But this problem was easily solved by his children & mother in-law leaving US to see him. Meaning that there was a bigger problem than that that he's intentionally 'forgetting'. Also doesn't France has an extradition treaty with US? - How is is safer to be in France than in US then? Why isn't he arrested there? Perhaps all the movie was his dream to avoid that awful reality.

 

But what do I know. To me the whole movie didn't make much sense.

I think he got out since his kids aged. 

[Oli London]

I'm pretty sure he got out of the dream world.

I want to say he got out. The key clue for me was that he's token started wobbling,if he was in the dream world still there would be no faults. It would continuously spin with no problem but it started to wobble like it was going to slow down. So i'm thinking he got out

This.

I believe he got out of the dream too. But seeing Cobb doesnt wait for the token's result, it just shows that he doesnt care anymore imo

[Sailor Mars]

i like to think he didn't because it makes it more interesting

[dontcare]

he can see his kids face so he's not dreaming. when he's dreaming the kids face always facing away

[Kyutiemir22]

I think he got out like someone else said you could see the kids faces and the token began to wobble towards the end scene.

This has literally been discussed a billion times when the movie came out.  The cast and Nolan never gave a clear answer but he's supposedly out of the dream world and most people like happy endings so it's the one they choose.
