Vanilla SkyAmazon. comGiven his status as America’s top male sex symbol, there’s a perverse irony to Tom Cruise’s virtually simmer-free performances in would-be erotic thrillers like Eyes Wide Shut and this Cameron Crowe remake of Spanish director Alejandro Amenábar’s Abre los Ojos (Open Your Eyes). But if Crowe stops just small of delivering another undercooked holiday Tom turkey, his vaunted early career as boy-wonder rock writer–and the help of frequent collaborator Danny Bramson–informs the film with an exceptionally rich and eclectic pop music score that leans heavily on unreconstructed psychedelia. Such was the Crowe-Bramson reputation that they secured original songs by no less than R. E. M. (the jangly pop of “All the Right Friends”) and Paul McCartney (a playfully obtuse title track that would otherwise be a standout on any modern Mac album), wrapping them in one sublime surprise, original and otherwise: Sigur Rós’s hypnotic “Svefn-g-englar,” the gorgeous languor of “Have You. . .

Ce film se démarque quand meme de la moyenne Cruise, bien que sans cette bonne OST, le film ne décollerais pas autant surtout qu’il s’agit d’une repompe. . .
néanmoins je suis extremement déçu de ne pas retrouver la chanson de Freur “Doot Doot” dans ce CD. Mais il semblerait que je ne sois pas le seul à poster ce genre de commentaire. . . beaucoup de chansons sont passé à la trappe. . . aux profits des plus vendables. Décevant ! d’autant plus que ce film ce veut Justement “film musicale”. . . .

I am giving this film a solid two. Two stars. This means that this movie could have been a four and easily a three, had it not comitted some cardinal errors. First of all, the tale is too convoluted. There are simply too many ‘what ifs’, too many ‘is this real, or a dream?’. Secondly, this movie is too long. This movie, like so many others, were it cut and edited into half, would be twice as excellent. Otherwise, the performance by Tom is stellar and the tale had some meaning. Although, one really has to wonder what it all really means. The thought of a physically perfect Tom Cruise being suddenly mutilated in a car accident is a fantastic one for a movie. What happens when someone who has it all, suddenly loses what made him so alluring in the first place? A perfectly shot movie which would have been much better served by a script editor.
