Deja Vu

Post by Truant »

I remember everyone wailing and gnashing their teeth over the visuals used in Tony Scott's last (and all) movie(s).

So if you were one of those people, you'll probably hate this (and all his other movies) because those visuals are one of his things.

I personally am a huge fan of his movies, and this one was no disappointment. Denzel was great as usual, and the story was interesting enough to pull me in.

Anyways, for the 4 or 5 of you out there who dig his movies, I thought i'd share.

p.s. no Walken in this one, sorry.

I saw it and I liked it. I think too much focus is given to the boat blowing up in the commercials, and to Denzel's actual interaction with the girl. Both of those, while important to the plot as a whole, don't really do the story justice.

It's a pretty cool time-travel movie.

i got dragged into seeing this last night, because my friends think my hatred for tony scott is a lol. i was actually surprised that the movie wasn't half bad, and i have promoted tony scott from the ashlee simpsons of film directing to the mary kate olsen.

i didn't really want to punch anyone until the end.
