Complete disappointment...

Rating: 1/10 (15 December 2001)

POSSIBLE SPOILER...Maybe my comment is a little unfair being that "Abre los Ojos" is one of my favorite films, but here it is. I never knew how annoying Tom Cruise could be until I watched Vanilla Sky. The title was completely ridiculous. They spent too much time on things that were not important to the story, especially in the beginning. It seemed as though it was redone for a stupid audience that wouldn't be able to figure out what was going on at the end unless there was huge clues throughout the film. The love story was overdone. Cameron Diaz as Sophia was not done the way it was intended but I think it was a problem in direction not acting. I really love Abre los Ojos and this movie was so long, boring and annoying (especially the soundtrack and Tom Cruise). It should have ended 30 min before it actually did. This is how Hollywood can convert a wonderful psychological-thriller into a boring and uninspired piece of crap.
