I watched Vanilla Sky last night. It was amazing.

Like the Matrix, it makes you question what is 'real' and what is not (only without all the science fiction and guns). It's one of those movies that makes you think throughout the entire film.

Afterwards, I went home and checked the user comments on imdb.com. Everyone else completely hated it. 99% of the users on that review board didn't get it. What's worse, they didn't know that they weren't getting it... they just thought the movie was retarded.

I was pretty amazed by this.. I guess if you're going to cater a movie to intellectual themes, you have to sacrifice some viewers.
