Good concept, poorly executed.
In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.
View MoreGreat movie! If you want to be entertained and have a few good laughs, see this movie. The music is also very good,
View MoreThere's no way I can possibly love it entirely but I just think its ridiculously bad, but enjoyable at the same time.
View MoreLoved revisiting this and remembering some of the timeless scenes in this classic
View MoreAs some other reviews mentioned, this film is so underrated. This is such a beautiful and heartbreaking love story besides the discussion about life and others. The film delivers the sentiments in a very exquisite, artistic, and refreshing way.Even as a female viewer, I feel Penelope Cruz is heartbreakingly beautiful in this film, especially in the central park dream scene.
View MoreI was so heart-broken after watching this film that it literally took weeks for me to get this movie out of my head. I've watched a fair share of tragic romance but nothing came close to touching my heart as much as Vanilla Sky did. Titanic? Not a chance!I often judge how good a film is based on how much emotion it evokes, and it is no exaggeration in saying that this is a true masterpiece that burrows deep into one's heart and toys with the emotions you thought you never had. Loneliness, regrets, longing, you name it. It's simply inexplicable.I watched this film years ago, but here I am, still getting this tingling sensation while I'm typing this and listening to the soundtrack (Sigur ros - The nothing song). I want to watch this again so badly, but don't think my aging heart can withstand another heartbreak.
View MoreIt looks like we have another case where the people liked it more than the critics. I guess I'm probably on neither side and I'm just going to say that this movie was okay. There was one thing that I really felt weighed it down. It was too long. There was a time where he took off his mask that I seriously thought the movie would end there. Instead, it kept going! This was a DVD given by a friend for a birthday present. This may be the last movie I ever watch before getting a Netflix account. This movie was perfectly passable. I admit that it got a little predictable. I knew it was going to be that there were dreams involved.It was probably for the best I had no clue what this movie was about. It features Tom Cruise's character as a rich guy who finds a girlfriend and then his ex tries to kill him. Yeah, I didn't see that coming. He survives, but is left disfigured and tries to adjust to life this way. It wasn't that hard to follow but it certainly got weirder as it went on. The acting is pretty good, but I guess it's just not quite the movie for me. I guess it might be because I just saw the "Agents Of Shield" episode "Self Control" that I saw a much better story of people in a dreamlike state. **1/2
