A drama, a romance, a comedy, and a thriller. Movie of the Year.

Rating: 9/10 (17 December 2001)

I saw Vanilla Sky 2 days ago, and Ive barely been able to stop thinking about it. It is without the most original and thought provoking movie I've seen all year. I am a Cameron Crowe fan, and he expands his horizon with this film, by making a film that cannot be placed into one particular genre. Tom Cruise's performance will most likely earn him an Oscar Nomination, and if it doesnt theres something wrong with the Academy. Cameron Diaz was amazing, playing an odd role for her, while Jason Lee was also very interesting and very funny, as always.Penelope Cruz and Kurt Russell also played their roles very well. 'Vanilla Sky'is the most intelligent, entertaining movie I've seen all year with twists that I never would've dreamed of, walking into this movie. I give it 9/10 Stars.
