Inception - Ellie

Inception is aimed at both women and men because there is a slight love story within the story itself, this then draws the attention of women more. It is aimed at men because their is excitement and action going on in the film to keep the attention, and keeps them engaged. Also the thriller is quite complicated, it is psychological, the audience have to work it out, therefore it is aimed at the older ages such as 18-30 year olds. 

Inception is rated 12a it includes some violence and moderate language, therefore is aimed at the higher age.
