What does the ending of Inception mean? The gyro never stops. Is it in a dream?

The question is whether the gyro at the end of the film has stopped. In fact, it is to discuss whether Cobb at the end has returned to reality.

It makes sense to speculate directly from the gyro. Another subtle but logical way is to look at the ring on Cobb's hand.

In all dream scenes (including a memory), Cobb has a ring on his hand. In all real scenes, Cobb has no ring on his hand.

When Cobb came home from customs without a ring, he knew he was back to reality and the gyro would stop.

At present, there are many kinds of discussions about the ending, but the author's favorite ending is that the protagonist lives in his own dream at the end or in the dream. I think only in this way can we explain what happened in the film most reasonably. The main arguments are as follows:

1, dreams are irregular, and anything can happen in dreams. The rules about dreams in the film are all defined by the hero in order to confuse our judgment. Therefore, to recognize reality or dreams, we must first jump out of the shackles of some dream rules given to us by movies. These rules are only part of the dream.

2. There is no physical law in the dream, and the gyro does not follow the physical motion law in the dream. In fact, in the film, the protagonist has already expounded this view when guiding female students to dream. Therefore, the hero's dream totem-gyro, which distinguishes reality from dreams, is just a cover for the film and a tool to confuse people. Whether he falls or rotates is actually determined by the hero's own consciousness, because he is still in his dream.

3. The film explains that in the dream, passers-by are all subconscious reactions of the dreamer, including the protagonist's wife and the sudden appearance of the train, which shows that the real dream is the protagonist himself. The film has been confusing the audience, telling us that it is not in the hero's dream, but in someone else's dream, but the subconscious of the hero should not appear in someone else's dream, which is contradictory to the rules explained at the beginning of the film. Therefore, from this perspective, it can be proved that we have always been in the hero's dream.

4. The appearance of the hero's wife Mel can also show that the hero is the real dreamer. Why does Mel always appear in the hero's dream? We can explain it this way. In fact, the person who has been living in the dream is not Mel, but the hero himself. The truth is that the hero has always been obsessed with dreams. In order to awaken the hero, Mel has been trying to enter the hero's dream and destroy the hero's plan by various methods. In the fourth dream, what Mel said can illustrate this point. She told the hero that when he looked back at the child, in fact, the child's face was always visible, but the hero always hinted that his child's face was invisible. At this time, the film implants the audience's thinking as one of the basic points of reality and dreams, so as to confuse the audience. Other explanations seem unclear. If you always use the gyro and the child's face given by the film as the basis for distinguishing dreams, then you are fooled.

5. Here we go again. Dreams are irregular and anything can happen. In the film, there is a key rule in dreams, that is, you can only go back to the next level of dreams through crossing. When a person dies, he can only be on the edge of the subconscious mind and cannot wake up. In fact, this is the regulation of dreams in the film. But in the third dream, Saito was actually dead. According to this logic, Saito cannot enter the fourth dream again. However, on the fourth floor, the film confessed that the hero met Saito, and finally both the hero and Saito returned to the plane, which contradicted the regulations about dreams in the film. The only reasonable explanation is that the hero is still in his dream, and anything is possible.
