Vanilla Sky

2001

• Vanilla Sky is a Sci-fi psychological thriller. 
• This movie is directed by Cameron Crowe. 
• His direction is uneven throughout the film, sometimes its good, sometimes its bad.
• Control over film making is very poor. 
• Story of the film is very strong. 
• It is well written but proper presentation is not there. 
• Story is about a very handsome man who finds his love of life, but he suffers an accident and needs to have his face rebuilt by surgery after it is severely disfigured. 
• Story telling is really confusing and not in proper manner (credit goes to director).
• Story had a big potential, but poor direction ruined it. 
• Film makes you very excited in last 15 minutes,but then ending is very weird. You'll not understand what's happening. Ending could have been great, a really memorable one, but...
• Camera angles were good, especially in that car accident scene. That was shot so perfectly that it actually scares you. 
• Film has loose direction, but twists keeps you excited. 
• Strating was little boring but second half boosts up. 
• Leads of the film are Tom Cruise, Penelope Cruz, Cameron Diaz.
• Tom delivered a great performance. He was really impressive. 
• Penelope's work was preferably good than Cameron's.
• Supporting actors were great. 
• Background score is good and correctly used.
• Prosthetics used were great. (appreaction to make up artists)
• Crew did a great work. 
• CGI is okay!!
• Vanilla Sky could've been a very great film like Shutter Island but poor film making and story telling sinks it.
• Still, the film is not that bad and definitely worth a watch or if possible watch the original film. (vanilla sky is adaptation of Spanish film 'open your eyes')
