Cruise saves the movie from being dreadful

Rating: 6/10 (8 July 2002)

Vanilla Sky is a tale about a man in a love triangle with two women, with twists and turns and everything in between. I thought Cruise was particularly good, and the best thing about the movie. Diaz is also good. Penelope Cruz, however, hasn't seemed to have found her acting ability quite yet. Either that or she's taking roles she doesn't play well. Anyway I enjoy some movies like this, that confuse you greatly and bring it all together in the end. The problem was that I really wasn't that satisfied on the big twist that came in the end. It's far from a bad movie, just not on the level for me as say an Eyes Wide Shut. I give it a 6 out of 10.
