Unforgettable but laborious

Rating: 8/10 (19 July 1999)

An uneven result ... but a thought-provoking overall product. Excellent performances by Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman. There are several scenes and images in this film that are difficult to forget. BUT, the film is sloppily edited and it would be a chore to sit through another entire screening.

Alan Cumming gives a terrific performance as the hotel bellhop.
