While 60fps is controversial, 10bit color depth is the real star here.
Here is the elephant in the room. You have a 10bit, grain-preserved, 24fps movie... forced into 60 frames per second (60fps).
Usually, "x264 10bit 60fps" indicates that the encoder has run the film through a Frame Rate Conversion (FRC) algorithm, specifically Motion Interpolation. Tools like SVP (Smooth Video Project) or FFmpeg with the minterpolate filter have generated 60 unique frames per second by analyzing the original 24 frames and "guessing" the in-between motion.
Let’s start with the origin. The 2010 BluRay release of Inception was a reference-quality disc. Unlike Nolan’s later The Dark Knight, which suffered from the "VC-1/Edge Enhancement" controversy, the Inception AVC (Advanced Video Coding) transfer is pristine.
The BluRay source holds around 30-40 Mbps of video data. However, our target filename suggests a re-encode. It is not a "REMUX" (which is a raw 1:1 copy). Instead, it is a specific re-encoding designed to maximize fidelity while saving space—but with a massive twist regarding the frame rate. inception 2010 bluray 1080p dts 51 x264 10bit 60fps
Nolan’s Inception 4K BluRay (2017) offers HDR10 and a 4K resolution upscale (since it was finished on a 2K DI), but it remains at 24fps.

If you want Nolan’s artistic intent: Watch the 4K BluRay. If you want to see the architecture of the dream without motion blur: Watch the 60fps encode.

If you need the actual analysis of that specific release: Search for the release name (the string before Inception.2010...) on r/DataHoarder or slow.pics (screenshot comparisons). Encoders often post technical write-ups there.
