Saw it blind

Rating: 10/10 (16 December 2001)

I messed up and deleted my original review and am now too tired to write. Therefore, in summary I have prepared this:
How it looks: Visually stunning, I will see somthing new everytime I see it. Expects more from the viewer. I need to be challenged, that's a good thing.
How it sounds: Awesome, I couldn't imagine a better soundtrack. Nice job, Cameron. Mondo '77, can't stop playing it, sweet.
How it's played: Cruise and Cruz, excellent. Diaz, won me over as Mary. Jason, you are not a sidekick, nor did you act like one, good job. Goofy guy with a name I don't remember, but are essential to the story, well played as the weird guy who's important in the end. Finally, Kurt Russel, just watched StarGate again, DO MORE DRAMA, surprisingly you can pull it off, excelent work all of you.
Overall: An original remake? Confused? Why not? With all the stuff happening nowadays, a little escape to the cinema to see some more escapage (new word, use it), go for it. You will not be dissapointed. As long as Cameron Crowe continues to make films such as Vanilla Sky, his status as a legendary film director/writer will not be ignored.
