I remember watching it when I was quite little in my chappy old bedroom on my chappy old TV, I had no idea what was going on but I was mesmerised, I stumbled across it again around 2013 and I finally got it, I watch it every year now, more than once.

In 2001 I was 19 when I saw this film and absolutely fell in love with it. I found it to be so beautiful and sad and the cinematography is wonderful. With one of the best soundtracks out there. Till this day the ending still makes me cry and is in my top 20 favorite movies of all time.

I saw this movie when I was a kid in a weird way. It was playing on late night tv and I started half-way through. I fell asleep right before the ending. I later learned that it played twice on the same station back to back... Anyway I woke up as the second showing was just beginning. I didn't realize this at the time and as the movie got going again back to the place I'd originally started watching, I became very unnerved and thought I was going crazy.

This movie is probably one of my top five with Tom Cruise.

This has always been one of my favorite mind-bending movies. Glad you picked this one.

I can't stop thinking about Vanilla Sky, I watched it for the first time in early 00s. I liked it back then, but revisited it again in December and it's one of the best films I've ever watched. The soundtrack is perfect. And now with the metaverse coming, it feels even more timely. I personally don't believe that most people would choose living permanently in an idealised virtual world / reality and this film only affirms that for me. Real human connection will always prevail, although it would be quite a curveball if we somehow ever found out the world we live in is a simulation...

I just watched this a couple days ago because NY literally looks like the opening of this movie right now. I was in tears and I still cannot get over just how damn good this movie is! I don't think there is any other movie that will top this one when it comes to the use of Sigur Ros either!

He was too old for the part and his refusal to allow his famous features to he more mangled after the accident was just arrogance. In the Spanish film, the characters face is completely destroyed after the accident. The David Aames character is just not likeable at all so it is difficult to feel sorry for him.

I think the Paul McCartney song was nominated, but yeah, def not I Fall Apart.

I remember watching this in the theater shortly after it’s release. Its hard to describe, but I felt hauntingly numb for weeks afterward. Could not stop thinking about the characters, the story, and especially the music. Oh the music...kept all those emotions swirling inside me for so long. Even now when I put in the cd, or just hearing those slow guitar parts in this Minty video gives me goose bumps and makes me stop what I’m doing. I love this movie, but I cannot watch it very often...especially when alone. Thanks for reviewing this emotionally charged film which I love...for different reasons.

I know exactly what you mean. If I hear the music from the band Sigur Ros, it brings back all those emotions and that feeling from 18 years ago when I saw it. Crazy!

“Hauntingly numb for weeks afterward” Totally how I felt after leaving the theatre and like a month after.

Absolutely love your videos and recognize the time and effort you must put in each one of them. So thank you for all that you do. I know you get request all the time but if you’ve never seen the Bruce Willis movie Hudson Hawk it’s amazing. A crazy cult classic if there ever was one that if you boil it down is all about a cat burglar who gets out of jail and just wants a cup of cappuccino. Of course lots of other craziness happens. I would so love to see you find 10 wonderful things out about this movie and how / why it happened. Only you could do it the justice it deserves. 🙏

Love this movie. Thanks for the video.

I loved Vanilla Sky. One of my favorite movies ever. Cameron Crowe movies hit me a certain way in general. His musical influence in his films is pretty special, from Jerry Maguier, Elizabethtown, Vanilla Sky obviously, even We Bought a Zoo. I actually made a song influenced by this movie using the same title Vanilla Sky - Real1muzik. The song is about relationships, as was this movie and the complications within them. The feel of the song was influenced by the Radiohead song featured in the movie Everything in its Right Place. I never made a video for it but always imagined referencing the dance club scene, where David is getting shit-faced after the realization his dream girl is no longer interested in him. Funny that the girl David lost interest in was Brian's dream girl. David lost interest in Julianna, and Sofia lost interest in David. Without the bitters, the sweets aren't as sweet.

14:45 how is the ending a confusing puzzle? the tech support guy literally explains everything that happened in the elevator on the way up to the roof. and in the scene before that, even the details of the cryogenic hibernation process and lucid dream program are explained in the meeting with the red headed woman. everything is explained so i don't know what you're confused about lol

By the way, I love your videos as always. You are great at these facts on our favorite movies.

Love that movie!!! Specially that final collage of songs (Beach Boys, Monkees, etc.)

LOVE YOUR VIDEOS!, I always give a thumbs-up. FYI Claude Monet is pronounced Claude "Moe-nay".

Thank you. You saved me a comment about it. Usually that kind of thing I let go, but I am an artist, and it drove me crazy the way he said that.

Great review. Unfortunately, due to many head injuries and a problem with my inner-ear, I cannot stomach fast-moving, 360 camera shots, roller coasters, or psychedelic images on the screen. So, I will be passing this one up. And my life would be one long Chicago album.

I Enjoyed the video mate! Keep up the good work 💪🏼👍 I’ve had this movie in my collection since it came out on DVD and I think it’s a good film, but I’ve only watched it a handful of times due to I find it kind of sad. Now as for the ending it’s pretty much explained to you in the movie. Anyways I enjoy your work man.

Big fan of this movie. Thanks for covering.

This is what I know I was dating my now husband who worked at a movie theater while this picture was showing. My friend dropped me off and I had a bit too much to drink (I was over 21) and remember not being able to understand anything; so I left it and hung out at the concessions stand instead. 🤷🏼‍♀️

I just bought it on KZread. They owe Minty a commission

That was well done bro thanx! Really enjoyed that as its one of my favorite movies and OMG Penelope is just so breath-taking wow

One of my favorite movies. My wife even got me a print of the painting Vanilla Sky by Monet Great video!
