What A Trip!

Rating: Null/10 (2 September 1999)

Oliver Stone is a true contemporary artist, using every available gadget to bring the blurring, mind numbing, visionary ideas from his head to the screen, He does so yet again with "The Doors". What a trip! This is a truly beautiful film, high lighted by Val Kilmer's incredible, absolutely incredible dead on turn as Jim Morisson. A role for which he should have one an Oscar. Even though I usually don't enjoy watching Kilmer, he's not an actor I really like, he blew me away as did the rest of the movie. The images I saw are burned into my mind indelibly, like some kind of fantastic dream. And as an answer to one of the reviews posted, the movie is called the Doors as a reference to the "doors" of consciousness, sanity and thought which Morisson traveled through many a time. This is a really great film. 9/10
