Viewing Notes

Fun to revisit this after probably 20 or more years. The special FX hold up really well though! Such a weird movie at that time for Scott as a director, and even for Cruise. Totally in its own world. Still a fun watch.

We chose to watch the director’s cut which is 24 minutes longer and never seen by me before. Flowed pretty well, so much so that I’m not even sure what wasn’t in the original theatrical release.
