The Cell (2000)
Way way way ahead of its time. Jlo actually doesn’t do her usual meh acting job and both Vince & Vincent crush. Especially D’Onofrio - gives an amazing take on the mind of a tortured soul. The sound design is incredible. I had a DVD version of it that would play the entire movie w just the ADR + soundtrack and wow . . . stunning.
Visually - i STILL haven’t seen much like it. It’s lush, well-conceived and the fx still hold up. It’s bonkers in all the great ways, in terms of art. Ever done LSD? Well, as a young man - this film really scratched the itch in that regard. To this day it’s still a gorgeous, gorgeous film. Well done Tarsem Singh. Anyone else still in love with this film 25 years later?
