So much worse than the original

Rating: 5/10 (18 March 2002)

How can you go so wrong with the original being so good? It is amazing. Amenabar manages to create a masterpiece in "Abre los Ojos". Then Tom Cruise hires a director, that tries to make an exact replica of the original, but fails totally. That may have been the error, trying to copy too much. The film concentrates too much in Tom Cruise's smiles and looks. Ridiculous. The only good acting comes from Cameron Diaz. I give it a 5/10, even though it deserves much less, as the answers were all done before. How sad.
