A must see even if you hate Tom Cruise

Rating: 10/10 (24 December 2003)

One of the best movies I've seen in a long time. I'm not a big Tom Cruise fan so I was initially hesitant to see this movie but now I'm glad I decided to view this flick. Yes, every now and again an actor walks into a role which suits them perfectly in all ways possible and in every aspect of their personality both good and bad. This movie is Tom Cruises' Ying for his Yang. I loved this movie because of its depth and complexity during selected scenes. For example, the scenes where no lines were spoken but so much is implied by just the right eye contact between actors. It's revolutionary in a comparable way as to the movie "Castaway" when it had no spoken lines for that 15 min stretch (but without the 15 min wait.) This movie is so good that I'll pay for you to view it and I'll pay you another $20 if you don't like it completely! This is a must see and #2 of the year's best flicks (right behind "LOTR:Return of the King").
