Movie Reviews of Open Your Eyes
Movie Review: Brillante: una joya de guión
Summary: 5 Stars
El chileno Alejandro Amenábar (Tesis) nos trae una producción donde derrocha todo su talento como escritor, productor ejecutivo, director y hasta co-compositor de la música de esta producción que serviría tres años más tarde como base fundamental para la película "Vanilla Sky" de Cameron Crowe. Con la participación de Eduardo Noriega en el papel de César, y la hermosa Penélope Cruz como Sofía (quien también fue interpretada por la actriz española en la versión norteamericana), la historia se desenvuelve de manera totalmente impredecible, haciendo casi imposible para protagonistas y espectadores discernir entre la realidad y los sueños de Eduardo. Otro director cuyo trabajo seguirá dando mucho de que hablar, sin duda alguna.Movie Review: Una de las peliculas mas inteligentes que se han realizado
Summary: 5 Stars
Esta pelicula es una obra maestra que no puede faltar en la colección de ningun cinefilo. Si te gustó "Tesis", tambien dirigida por Alejandro Amenábar, esta pelicula sin duda te fascinara. Es un film sicologico, que muestra hasta que punto podemos dintingir la realidad de la fantasia, puede ser que en este mismo momento todo lo que esta a nuestro alrededor es una ilusion ¿ Cómo saberlo?.
Es un thriller apasionante, que te agarra y no te suelta en ningun momento. Tiene grandes actuaciones, una excelente fotografia, un impecable guion y una mirada innovadora de parte del director.
En resumen, una pelicula que no defraudara a nadie, con un guion inteligente, interesante y novedoso, en donde como es de costumbre de Amenábar, al final, mucho o nada es como pareciera que era.
Movie Review: Pure Genius
Summary: 5 Stars
Oh my goodness - what a brilliant film. Words cannot describe my reaction to it - my friend and I kind of looked at each other at the end and all we could manage was "Woah," and we're English majors that love to talk. This film is brilliantly done and both Noriega (II) and Cruz play phenomenal roles. To not see it would be an insult to the cinematic world. It makes you think about life in ways you didn't even think you could analyze it. In fairness, if you don't like to gain great insight from movies and don't want to think while you watch them, this is not the film for you. If you want to gain a whole new perspective on life, go watch it immediately! To quote a very wise literary great (E. A. Poe), "All we see, and all we seem, is but a dream within a dream." Watch the movie, and think about it.Movie Review: A great movie with a very clean dvd
Summary: 5 Stars
I waited a while for this to be released on dvd. The DVD is very clean, very "well done", although generically simple. I was afraid it would be something like the Thesis dvd. Fear not. It's not as expensive, and Artisan did a good job with it.However, i did find a couple errors, mainly on the cast bios and the like. I assume that's why they re-released it (as of now, the dvd is set to be released on december, while it was originally released last august). If on Amenabar's filmography you've got a "The Darkness (2001)" (should be The Others), that's the first version right there.
It goes without saying Open Your Eyes is a superb movie. If you haven't seen it yet (which i honestly doubt if you're here reading the dvd reviews), go get your hands on a copy. You won't regret it.
Movie Review: Spanish Version of Vanilla Sky
Summary: 5 Stars
This is actually the original movie from which Vanilla Sky was based on, both starring Penelope Cruz. She's a favorite of mine and I did watch both. And what makes this version even better is Eduardo Noriega who is not only incredibly handsome but an excellent actor as well. "Open Your Eyes" is story that is quite unique because it involves future technology and that is not instantly revealed in the story-telling. This film was directed by the talented Alejandro Amenabar who is also a writer and composer. He directed other films like "The Others" and "Agora." Something about this version makes it a bit more dark and edgy than Vanilla Sky and if the viewer doesn't really mind the subtitles, it can can really pull you in. I've seen it a few times, and I've never tired of it.
