Review of Vanilla Sky (2001) by Ethan B — 03 Oct 2018
Vanilla Sky is a remake of a Spanish film also starring Penelope Cruz and this is where the problem starts: Many people disregard Vanilla Sky because it is a remake and that it is a mainstream film starring Tom Cruise and Cameron Diaz which tones down the original's approach but they couldn't be more wrong.
This is a fantastic quirky, offbeat science fiction film which is good in its own way. Cruise is really good as the rich heir and is ably supported by Cruz, Diaz and Kurt Russell who turns up as his psychiatrist.
I suggest you watch this film with an open mind and you will be surprised.
