Still debating over the ending of “Inception” with family, friends and random strangers?

Well, we’re here to put the debate to rest.

Or maybe not.

Warning: SPOILERS ahead for “Inception.” If you haven’t seen it, stop reading now.

At the end of the movie, Cobb is finally reunited with his children and sets the top to spinning. If it’s a dream, it will keep spinning, if it’s the real world it will stop (as was established early in the film). Before we find out what it does, the film cuts to black.

So, is it a dream or is it real?

Actor Michael Caine has the answer.

“”[The spinning top] drops at the end, that’s when I come back on. If I’m there it’s real, because I’m never in the dream. I’m the guy who invented the dream,” Caine tells the BBC.

So, does that clear it up? Let us know your thoughts in the comments.
