Summary: Tom Cruise can do no wrong!
Review: First of all, I have never been a big fan of Cameron Crowes movies. They have been a little on the sappy side. I went to this movie expecting the same but was pleasantly surprised. This was one of those movies I walked out of the theater going "Man, I can't wait till this comes out on DVD". Well here it is May 21st, 2002 and I now own one of the most overlooked movies of 2001. Gone is the sap that oozes in most Cameron Crowe movies, and in its place a great story that keeps you interested to the very end. Crowes main ingredient in this is the always good Tom Cruise. Add to that the very Jeckyl and Hyde performances of Cameron Diaz and Penelope Cruz, and you've got a very intense, intelligent, and erotic movie. The Times Square scene is worth the price alone. I don't want to go too in depth into the movie because I don't want to give anything away, but it is definetly great movie making. The DVD package is just as good as I was hoping for. Included is a great commentary with Crowe, Nancy Wilson, and a special phone appearance by Mr. Cruise. Not one, but two featurettes, an interview with Paul McCartney, music video, photo gallery, and a couple of unreleased trailers. I am very happy with this movie and DVD presentation. Enjoy.

Summary: Great film , But?
Review: Although this film was not a critical success ... It's great.. Yes... It pales in comparation to the original , But what more can you expect a Hollywood production?
This is one of the best edited films I've ever seen... I know that the editing's not that important...But this editing is amazing... I would have given 4 stars to this great film... But the dvd doesn' t have the deleted scenes!!!!
the original movie has a great violent scene at the end of the movie... But it was erased because suposibly it was inapropiate... But thats what the dvd's for!!!! savages

Summary: Good movie but no real extras.
Review: When I first heard about this movie, I was a little worried because Ms. Cruz is not one of my favorite actors. Tom did another great job. When will the academy realize that not only is this actor a hugh box office draw, but he has the abilty to act circles around any of his peers. When an actor can allow his wonderful good looks to be stripped away and wear the face of a monster should have the respect that his acting ability deserves. I was blown away by the ending and the expressions that Mr. Cruise has as reality begins to seap in is the stuff that real movie making is made of. From the moment that he was robbed in "Rain Man" I have waited for this actor to be recognized for his talent. Guess he's just going to have to keep tugging away at it. Don't give up Tom, the people that count know what an artist you really are and appreciate each and every movie that you give us.

Summary: This DVD will liquidify your mind.
Review: Lets talk about the DVD first, not the movie. The DVD is a DVD, not a VHS on a DVD disc. The navigation, transitions and background sounds were well thought out and make the disc an overall "dream" to explore. I personally enjoyed the Prelude to a Dream documentary. Obvious time was spent making this mini-movie and it just pulled everything together.
Hats off to the photo gallery (almost worth the price of the disc alone to see pictures of Penelope Cruz).
I must have spent an hour or so just checking out the special features on the disc prior to watching the movie. I think it's the background music and sounds that pulls me back to the root menu. Overall an excellent DVD with superb quality and features. THE MOVIE: First saw this at the theatre with two friends. I thought thry might hate it from the start but I wanted to try it on them. I was right. This movie is out there... and that's why I love it. It'll twist you around and leave you wondering if you're still in "dream"land.

Summary: This Film Blew my Mind!!!!!
Review: When I saw this film in the theatre I went with one other person. When we walked out of the theatre we spent the next two hours talking about and praising this movie. Forget the bad reviews you see here, they are wrong. This movie was easily the best film of 2001. It takes a certain level of intelligence to appreciate a work of art like this. Buy it now!!!!!

Summary: Vanilla Sky Rocks!
Review: Vanilla Sky is a great movie with lots of potential to big a big seller. Makes you think like no other with it's crazy twists. Tom Cruise fits the role perfectly, making it a must buy.

Summary: Pure waste of time
Review: With a couple of friends I went out to watch a movie. Unfortunately we decided on "Vanilla Sky". Well, I have to admit that the first 50 or 60 minutes of the film were quite good, but from there on it went downhill with terrifying speed. And finally... EVERYONE of us started to laugh out loud about the "highly dramatic ending". We got out of the cinema and into a bar and shrugged our shoulders about two hours stupidity. And that was that.

Summary: K.Dick
Review: I am very sorry but this film as well as Open Your Eyes to me are way to similar to Total Recall. Only theres sex scenes instead of action sequences. Every thing I've seen by the director/co-writer of Open Your Eyes is completely non-origionial but yet for some reason everyone glorifies his work as if he's some kind of creative genious. My personial opinion of this film is support Total Recall it deserves it far better than this rip off. And for his new film The Others starring Nicole Kidman, watch the Sixth Sense, it's the same damn film, it even has the same cover art. He should stick to writing music he's good at that, as far as writing goes hire someone thats creative. At least redo a film that didn't copy off of something else to begin with. Beside from this point that I can't seem to let go of his films as well as the remake of open your eyes are extremely well crafted, they don't beat out Kubrick from a long shot, but they're very well done in their direction and editing. They're worth seeing just for Penelope Cruz, gosh darn are you one hot woman. If it dosn't bother you that these films copy off of others in a major way than by golly you'll probably rate them as 5 star films. But for me it just clouds my whole perspective, thus the low rating.

Summary: Leaves you guessing
Review: This is one of those movies that leaves you wanting more. It takes you on this fantastic ride through the depths of the soul, but in the end you're still wondering what the truth is. Highly up to interpretation, I think it recieved bad reviews for simple lack of understanding. If you're one for philosophical and intelligent movies, this is definately one for you.

Summary: Noodle Sky
Review: ...After the meal the Sticky was actually able to enjoy the Vanilla with it's weird plot lines and the Andrew Lloyd Webber acting by the Cruise. After all, with that type meal in the stomach, the Sticky could just close his eyes and imagine how great this movie could have been (as oppose to how freaking [bad] it was).
