"Don't even attempt to understand time travel- it's just not scientifically possible." Those were the words of a wise friend of mine shortly after completing The Terminator marathon near the end of our University days. Having just finished watching DejaVu for the first time, literally five mins ago, I attempted to apply this philosophy... and failed, miserably. So, equipped with a bottle of Lucozade, I shall be up all night attempting to piece together all these thoughts concerning what actually just happened in Tony Scott's confusing, but wonderfully entertaining, "Science-Fiction" movie.
Things begin when agent Doug Carlin (the consistantly brilliant Denzel Washington) arrives at the scene of an exploded ferry boat- the work of a terrorist. The body of the apparent victim Claire Kuchever (Paula Patton) is found, and Carlin has ...

With two such accomplished film makers ...

Ciao members have rated this review on average: very helpful Review of Deja Vu (DVD)
Advantages: SOME INTERESTING TWISTS Disadvantages: QUITE PREDICTABLE IN PARTS
DejaVu is a entertaining light scifi film about having the chance to go back and change the past.
The film opens with the explosion of a ferry which has just left the Canal Street Pier in New Orleans. Doug Carlin (Denzyl Washington) is the ATF-New Orleans and is called in to investigate this accident when his partner Larry, who should be covering the investigation goes missing.
Doug's job is to confirm whether or not this is just a normal accident. He does a bit of searching around and locates evidence to prove that a device was used to cause the explosion.
Doug prove's himself to be a very skilled investigator finding clues that even the FBI haven't detected yet, which brings him to the notice of Jack McCreadie (Val Kilmer) who is the special FBI agent placed in charge of the investigation.
Also during this time a woman ...

Album Reviews
Down Beat (6/97, p. 50-51) - 3 1/2 stars (out of 5) - "...Haque's eclectic blend of jazz, classical, flamenco and various world genres is well suited to CSN&Y's chiming folk-rock style....he layers airy, intricate textures whose heaves and swells capture the wistful yearning of the original vocal harmonies..." JazzTimes (9/97, p.131) - "...Haque captures the original cast's innocent, often dreamy spirit and sweet harmonies while adding fresh accents....a satisfying eloquent update of an enduring classic." Entertainment Weekly (4/4/97, p.85) - "...Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young's DEJA VU becomes fleet-fingered coffee-bar instrumental fare via guitarist Haque..." - Rating: B
