I definately recommend going to Deja Vu. It's a great story, complicated but easy to follow. Great acting and action. Though the camerawork can cause headaches in some spots, thanks Tony Scott, it's a very entertaining movie. Any thoughts on it from people who have seen it?

I would see this film if it wasn't for Tony Scott. I agree, camerawork is overdone and a nightmare to take in (i.e.-"Man on Fire"). Why Tony Scott? Why?! Razz

It was a great movie if you like "Frequency". Caveziel was a major badass in this one.

Yes. It was a good story, but all that camerawork...it was all too much for me.

A agree with David, Tony Scott way over uses his camera work and effects..expecially in man on fire I could barely stand watching it with all the over bearing editing and Camera effects...its like a music video that lasts for 2 hours, everything else in Man on fire was pretty good.

I plan to see Deja Vu, looked like an interesting story and the fact that it had Denzel Washington in it makes me want to see it no matter who directet it...Maybe Scotts camera work is more cinematic this time.

The camerawork really isnt too hard to watch in this. I wouldnt recommend the front row, but its hardly The Bourne Supremacy (now THAT was hard to watch.)
See it, this is really, really good. Smart little movie.


Actors? What actors?

Yeah, during the opening scene there was quite a bit of it and I thought, "Oh no..." But after that it really seemed to calm down.

I´m surprised nobody´s mentioned this:

To me, it felt like CSI New Orleans, particularly the opening sequence.

Still an entertaining film, and nothing else.

Denzel Washington killed more people than he saved thanks to his reckless driving. I saw this as a double feature with Stranger Than Fiction. The quality and creativity of that film made this film's abhorrent lack of coherrence even more insulting.

Tony Scott was better on ADD. Domino and Man on Fire are at least interesting to watch. This was just boring and lazy.


But that's just my opinion. I could be wrong.
