Saw this in 2001, in theaters….I was like 15, my friends and I thought it was such a profound, philosophical movie, I remember walking out of the theater, and looking around like 'Is this a lucid dream, or my life, whats real whats not, etc,I loved it back then. There are issues with the Cruise and Cruz dialogue, though they have good chemistry, the lines are out of a C list romantic comedy.

Also, some of the most intriguing ideas presented are never full explored, but the atmosphere, performances, direction are all still really fukking good, and it definitely holds up, as a great romance, thriller, if not a deep statement on dream and reality, as I thought when I was a kid.

Cruise and the mask in the club will always be a snoop face moment….
