It's a tough job - putting Philip K. Dick's story into a movie. Basically it's similar to Stephen King's works (Shawshank Redemption or The Green Mile). PKD's stories are diamonds in a rough, with countless layers of meaning and ideas hiding beneath the surface. Directors mostly take only his basic ideas, and try to visualize them. This movie is a very good job (as was Blade Runner, Minority Report or Screamers). Excellent casting, camera, editing, music and direction. Very entertaining, with nothing to add or discard. It radiates inspiration of the participants and it shows. There's humor, suspense, emotions and all the things that make the movie a pleasant experience, and worth watching many times. It also makes one think about everyday reality and the things we usually take for granted and "as they are". PKD was a genius in so many ways and I'm looking forward to the filming of all of his work. In good hands they make excellent movie, for the people who know how to appreciate a good work. Like this one.
