This is one of the most over the top films I have seen. I would have maybe enjoyed the film if the entire cast had been different (minus Jason Lee). Tom Cruise looks like an amateur. Aames is an unlikeable character... Full review

This is one of the all time 5 worst movies ever along with Charlie's Bimbos 2 and Pretty stupid woman. This was total dreck and sheer torture to sit through, which I did only for my wife's sake. Mind blowingly dull.... Full review

This melancholy is expressed exquisitely, in nearly heartbreaking terms, on the songs from Bedroom Classics .....As with most compilations, there's room to quibble about track selections.....Tapped by Cameron Crowe for the Vanilla Sky soundtrack, it was arguably the best thing about the movie.....That's all to say what you're getting here is some of the best, most cozy pop music of the last decade.....These songs are well-crafted, well-performed, well-produced examples of rootsy folk-pop, tinged with what w ...

It's an ambitious and interesting film that tackles big issues, and while there is much to stimulate It's good casting all around, and I especially like Kurt Russell's psychologist and the cameos by Noah Taylor and Tilda Swinton in small but crucial roles. ... Full Review

Crowe's film is a tritely layered allegory that sits somewhere between metaphysical dream and waking nightmare. It's a sad thing when filmmakers forget their audience. ... Full Review

Here, however, everything happens much more slowly (Vanilla Sky is a good 18 minutes longer than the original and it shows), with a resulting loss of both pacing and suspense. To sum up, then, Vanilla Sky is disappointing, if only because the original film shows that it could easily be snappier, shorter and more suspenseful. ... Full Review

Everyone even remotely involved in the film is capable of much better things, and despite their best efforts, "Sky Unlike that superior film, "Vanilla Sky" seems to play randomly with what is real and what is not until it builds to a cop-out conclusion which works only because it gives the script license to do whatever it wants. ...
