Penelope proves again how overrated she is.

Rating: Null/10 (24 August 2003)

Aside from the fact that the girl simply can't act nor even look good on film (but that's a matter of taste, I suppose, or is it?), her part and Cameron Diaz's were supposed to be switched. It would make much more sense to see Penelope being left in favor of Cameron.
The movie is deep and tells an intricate story about David Aames' (Cruise) mind. Being a text-book has-it-all guy he steals his friend's girl (Penelope the terrible) and the story takes its turn there. It's well written, well performed (All great except for Penelope) and beautifully told as a story.
The dream/reality parts are indeed min-bending and may even ease the Penelope Cruz pain throughout the film. :)
7/10
