Rather Confusing

Rating: 5/10 (27 May 2002)

Vanilla Sky is a very confusing picture. You have to really watch the film in order to understand what is going on. The film was indeed a good film and Tom Cruise delivers an exceptional performance. However, the screenplay is poorly written and the ending is poor in general. Writer/Director Cameron Crowe should have rewrote the ending in order to make the film more enjoyable. Indeed the film is filled with twists and surprises. There are some things that you don't expect are coming. However, it is the ending which kills this movie. Vanilla Sky would not be a movie I would recommend because lots of people would be sitting there looking at this movie and plainly just not getting it. They would also believe that the ending is just plain crappy.
