The Deja Vu Thread - Barry Lee Dejasu - 11-26-2006

WOW!

I loved this movie. An intelligent (and well-thought-out) story, tight directing, good acting...wow. Very good. It was like Enemy of the State (the movie, not the FPW book) meets Frequency with a bit of Laura (1944) thrown in (yes, seriously!). I can already see this joining my Untraditional Time Travel Movie Festival (which includes Timeline, Frequency, Minority Report, Kate & Leopold, and other movies involving time travel minus flying cars or Morlocks).

I especially loved this after the high-aiming (but largely-lacking) The Fountain.

Other thoughts?

I'm torn on this movie. I'm a big Tony Scott fan, but this movie got skewered by critics. Probably wait for DVD.

The movie guy in the DAILY NEWS--Jack Matthews?--gave it 4 stars. I don't have a lot of use for critics unless they're writing about what they do themselves, and therefore =really= know about. Spider Robinson's reviews in ANALOG come to mind, but I'm hard-pressed to think of anybody else.

Tony Scott turned me off after the edit/massacre job he's been doing since Man on Fire. It's like he makes movies to keep the attention of children with ADD.

So .... Domino and Deja Vu? Or does that also include Man on Fire?

Domino and Man on Fire. The stories of both seemed interesting, but the poor lighting, the jittery cam and the out of context shots throw me way off.

Didn't we have a deja vu thread before?

Nah, I won't say it.
