Deja Vu

Tony Scott is the only director that could have made this film a good one. His unique style of choppy, fast-paced editing made this film extremely entertaining. Any other director would have turned this film into another version of Time Cop (which is on my top 25 list of the worst movies ever made). Denzel also helped make this film good by brining his effortless acting abilities to the film.

The plot was unique even though time travel has been done over and over again. Tony Scott was able to bring some unique twists into the story that kept my attention through the whole film. Although not particularily complex or thought-provoking, the time travel was introduced to take a rather bland plot and spice it up.

Val Kilmer was used like an extra in this film. Is his career done altogether? He hasn't been a star in a blockbuster since "The Saint", 10 long years ago. Adam Goldberg did a great job in the film providing the much needed comic relief to Denzel's dry style.

All and all, great directing, great acting, and a entertaining story.
