How was the plot of Inception? Those who have seen it and understand it, please recommend it. Those who have not seen it, please watch it first. This movie is too exciting!

After thinking about it for a long time, he felt that the plot might not be that complete. However, because the movie was too good, he still wanted to ask. Especially regarding the place where he had transmigrated from the dream, it didn't seem to make sense.
1. When the male and female protagonists were trapped at the edge of the dream for the first time, why did they spend 50 years looking for a way to go home from X? Logically speaking, they were already proficient in this method at that time, and they had studied it for so long and entered so many layers of dreams. They should have known that they could wake up from X, right? And why did he wait so many years for the protagonist to save him after Saitou entered the edge of the dream? He should have known that Project X could wake up.
2. From the above two points, as long as you were at the edge of the dream, you could return to the real world by committing suicide. In other words, no matter how deep you entered the dream, you didn't have to worry about not being able to return. Suicide twice was enough. From this point of view, the worries of the main characters and the thrilling multi-layered dream crossing had complicated the problem?
3. Also, the dream where he saw the protagonist's wife on the last floor should be the fourth floor. The little girl dream maker and the rich second-generation heir used a simple method like jumping off a building to return to the dream on the previous floor. Why didn't they go to the edge of the dream? Did the plot cheat?
Hehe, don't say that I'm nitpicking. Good films always make people can't help but dig deeper into them ~
Maybe you didn't understand my question and thought that I understood it a little superficial.
Question 1 and 2. I know that you will get lost in a dream, but these people should know this as they are dreamers. Moreover, they all have totems to distinguish between dream and reality. At the beginning, the protagonist's wife already had a totem. Logically speaking, they should be able to commit suicide to the edge of the dream and then commit suicide. Then, simultaneous transmigration is unnecessary.
In fact, the main question was about the first time the main character and his wife left the edge of the dream. In the movie, when the main character was chatting with the female university student, he described how he and his wife were trapped in the edge of the dream and created a world to pass the time. The reason they were tired of this life was that they knew everything was fake. The female character's wife sealed her memories and chose to forget. This meant that they knew from the beginning that it was still a dream. However, they were still trapped there, which did not conform to the theory of disorientation.
The only explanation was that when the protagonist and his wife were trapped at the edge of the dream, the dream was still in the research stage. They didn't know that suicide could wake them up. In other words, the protagonist and his wife were the first to discover a way to return to reality by committing suicide. The edge of a dream is a realm where even dream thieves would get lost. The deepest layer of a dream is the unconscious. Totems are useless. Only the main character and his wife have the ability to distinguish between dream and reality at the edge of the dream. This explanation is a little far-fetched, but I can't think of anything else.
From the beginning to the end of the movie, the so-called transmigration should only be effective when they fell from the dream on the upper level. Jumping from the building was equivalent to falling from the dream on this level. They still didn't understand...
