Stephen Dorff (Jake) takes us through an interesting and amusing narrative of a small-time director trying to make a childhood dream come true. Having written the story, Phil Joanou, obviously had a clear idea of how he wanted the visuals to work with not only the narration style but with the story and characters. These all come together to create some comic scenarios as well as visual feasts for the eyes. It's the kind of movie that is interesting to look at as well as understand, and maybe the visual effects could have been taken to the extreme, but nevertheless a successful piece of directing. As a U2 fan I was a bit apprehensive about the part that the band would play, but was pleasantly surprised to find them as important as all the other minor characters in the story. And therefore I didn't expect them to be anything other than themselves. Joanou obviously loves what he does. With work like this let's hope we can expect great things to come.
