WOW

Rating: 10/10 (30 October 1999)

Hugely creative. The writer and director reach for so much. The actors push this movie along quite well and, looking back on it, I remember my general expression being an open-mouthed, giddy, stunned smile, with a growing confidence that nobody involved in this movie was going to drop the ball while taking me places I have never been to. "Being John Malkovich" is to any movie you have ever seen what Dali or Picasso were to impressionists or realists. A quantum leap in creativity, with no peers in any recent art form. It sounds like I'm laying it on a bit thick here, but I have never been this blown away by ANY artist's vision.
