Awesome if you can rub two brain cells together.

Rating: Null/10 (29 June 2003)

I am in shock at the number of people bad mouthing this film, and truthfully find many of their comments comical. The story is awesome and very original. Unlike what some other people would lead you to believe, you don't need to make any religious or metaphysical self realizations to enjoy this film. The concept is not a difficult one to grasp, and no more difficult to buy into than any other movie ever made - especially considering...helloooo....it's a science fiction movie!! These are probably the same people complaining about Bugs Bunny cartoons not being realistic enough. Some people complain that the story is too complex and confusing - I would simply call it interesting. You don't need to be Einstein to follow this one, but it does keep you guessing. I thought that made it good. Solid casting, solid acting, superb story, great action (not OVERdone), intense effects, Spielberg magic, and as always a fantastic score from John Williams. Very stylish shooting and editing - bravo. I don't know what else people were expecting. I guess if you like movies like "Legally Blonde" you should probably stay clear of this one, it might make you think a little bit. If you could follow Total Recall give this one a shot - it's awesome.
