stacey-44612 It's unconventional, thought provoking and has ZERO cliches. I am BEGINNING to believe the public gets upset when movies don't have to conclusions we hope for. THESE ARE THE MOVIES THAT MOST CLOSELY MIRROR OUR LIVES!!!! They are ART. This movie, to me, is truly a work of Art. It ABSOLUTELT MIST BE SEEN MORE THAN ONCE - the mark of a great film. THIS MOVIE ABSOLUTELY BLEW ME AWAY!!

OneEightNine Media ..like Vanilla Sky, it was televised. Finally - finally - finally got a chance to watch this movie. It was okay. I mean yeah, it does drag in some places and gets repetitive however it is original and interesting. And strangely a little forgettable. I am literally trying to remember how it ends. There is a reveal and explanation part and the character is given a choice but I can't recall what he does. And I'm too lazy to read Wikipedia right now.

slightlymad22 Vanilla Sky (2001)Plot In A Paragraph: A self-indulgent and vain publishing magnate (Cruise) finds his privileged life upended after a car accident.This movie devided people when it was released. Some loved it, some hated it, and there was a while bunch of people, who didn't had a clue what was going on. I have never rewatched it since 2001. I didn't mind it back then, and have never cared to revisit it. Difficult to follow at times, but the performances are spot on!! Cruise gives a very solid performance here. Kurt Russell is reliable in his small role, Penelope Cruz is very appealing, but it's Cameron Diaz who surprised me!! She is very believable in a difficult role. Not only must she be the playful girlfriend and the demented lover, but she has to mimic Cruz's actions during two key sequences.I enjoyed it, a lot more the second time around, helped by the vague memory of what was going on. Vanilla Sky grossed $100 million at the domestic box office to end 2001 the 20th highest grossing movie of the year.

Hitchcoc Even if I don't always like Tom Cruise, the man, mainly because of his pomposity and his L. Ron Hubbard stuff, I seem to really enjoy his movies. In this one, his character is much like him. He is not heartless, but not far from it. He is spoiled and entitled. He has expectations of others, including women, that he is the be all and end all. One day his life changes when he is in a car with the Cameron Diaz character, whom he actually exploits. She is willing to kill both of them rather than live without him. What follows is one of the most circumlocative plots, with apparent supernatural elements, dream sequence, cryonics, etc. A criticism of this film would be that it is so bizarrely convoluted, that reality is hard to discern. There is some validity to that, but it also makes it incredibly interesting. Sometimes I'd rather see a director or producer try to exceed their grasp. I would also recommend that the previous film "Open Your Eyes" is its own film. Must we always try to demean something because it has an antecedent.
