Plot Summary: David Aames takes all he has for granted; his wealth, his inherited publishing company, his good looks - his relationships. Especially his relationships. It catches up to him when a friend/sometimes sex-partner can't see their relationship the way he sees it. From that point, the movie takes a Lynchian twist that ultimately and literally pulls us into Aames' tortured psyche.

Comments: Awesome movie, very interesting and deep! One of my all time favorites. Acting, directing, screenplay, soundtrack, everything outstanding. Definitely must watch several times to get it all and understand it, that's what makes it so special, it makes you think and wonder. Love the mind journey it provides, New York is fascinating backdrop. The Lucid Dream concept and how his subconscious interfered with what could have been a wonderful "dream" life, all fascinating. Cruise was terrific. Russell's character McCabe, the imaginary psychologist was interesting too. I think a lot of people will not like this because they're too shallow to understand it and it's simply beyond them.
