Better than the original - a first for Hollywood

Rating: 7/10 (29 October 2002)

Saw the original, hated it. Like Cameron Crowe, thought I'd see what he did with it. Very stylish, fair too much music piped in every 5 minutes (bet they shifted a few copies of the soundtrack) but it was visually appealing. And Tom Cruise was funny, though whether or not that was deliberate is a discussion point for another website.
See it, forget about it. Cameron says on the DVD that he is still talking about this film as it was so memorable. Er, no it isn't. I am still taking about 'Memento' but I'll have forgotten about 'Vanilla Sky' by next week.
