Perhaps the only Tom Cruise movie where I believe him beyond playing himself. It's odd and engaging and expertly crafted.

Frenzy from start, chaotic like its chars, tedious, heavy, disjointed & endless flaws. Incredibly this film, thks to its mistakes: succeeds.

Style reminiscent of Robert Altman with a slice of the magical. Aimee Mann's music is great. Phillip Seymour Hoffman is perfect

Overly ambitious, but it’s a film that only PTA could have made. A cinematic antidepressant.
