in the trailer, one of the critics it cites calls this movie "the Inception of documentaries!"

What the *beep* is that even supposed to mean?

It refers to a comment someone made (I forget who), it most likely refers to the complicated idea behind the movie. A documentary that is about the making of the documentary likened to a dream within a dream.

I'm pretty sure it means that Inception was a huge blockbuster which was highly praised and commonly discussed and anticipated. It means that this documentary is like the epic of all documentaries.
