After Tom Cruise separated from Nicole Kidman I feel he started a different
path that allowed him to explore more of his acting. Where he did not have to
rely so heavily on his good looks and winning personality. In all honesty I
actually like his films and the characters he portrays. I had tried to watch
Vanilla Sky years ago and could not see where it was going and gave up about 15
minutes in. Anyway on the second watch I actually knew what was happening and
was able to follow it pretty well.
Tom Cruise plays David Aames a rich publishing heir who is a
playboy around town, he starts with a weird dream and then wakes up next to
Cameron Diaz, this could be many people’s dream. At his birthday party his best
friend brings Penelope Cruz and there is a spark. He leaves her in the morning and
makes a mistake by getting in the car with Cameron Diaz who feels jilted and
she causes an accident that leaves Tom disfigured. You then follow him as he
tries to regain his life and recover from the accident.
This film was captivating and kept me enthralled to the end and I
have to say that I was not exactly sure where it was going but the ending
really worked for me and I have to say that they way it all worked out in the
end ticked all the right boxes for me. Overall this comes under the strong
three star recommend catagory for me and I think most of you will actually
enjoy it.
