A haunting and beautiful masterpiece

Rating: 9/10 (31 January 2003)

First off let me say that I feel strongly this movie belongs in the top #250 list. It is imaginative, original, and creative and sucks you in. I just got back from watching it and boy was it good. I won't go into the details of the plot since its pretty hard to explain without ruining anything. Performance wise this movie is great, you have some good material from Stowe and Willis but most importantly Pitt (got Golden Globe for best supporting actor and was nominated for an Academy Award) who adds in a looney performance similar to his role in Fight Club. The script was good, there was life in each character. This movie isn't only an imaginative physcological trip but an emotional one at well, the ending being sad. I still feel Blade Runner (directors cut) is the best science fiction film ever made and the novel (Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?) is probably also the best science fiction novel. But this movie is high up there due to the stellar cast performances, highly detailed (occasionally confusing) script, and its amazing plot. I say 9.5/10 (it got too confusing and weird once in a while)
