Open your eyes, says Mr. Crowe

Rating: 8/10 (14 December 2001)

wow, what a trip that was. I thought VS was a great movie, with lots of twists and turns. And Cruise, what a performance. I don't think he's ever done anything this weird. But as for the naysayers, well . . . let them. This movie is not in any way for those who enjoy a straight-forward plot. When I was leaving, everyone was complaining about the "plot" - I won't give it away. Personally, I thought it was great.
The only way this is a normal Crowe flick is the messages through the characters. Otherwise, Crowe packs in as many turns as driving up and down Mulholland Drive.
8/10
