"The Cell," directed by Tarsem Singh and featuring Jennifer Lopez, is receiving a lavish 4K release from Arrow Home Video, 25 years post its original reception. While initially criticized for being style over substance, this re-release includes new features like commentaries, interviews, and a previously unseen version of the film. The upgrades and special features aim to renew interest in Tarsem Singh's unique vision, reflecting how critical perspectives can evolve over time, highlighting the film's potential for deeper appreciation today.
Roger was never "most critics." He loved the film, giving it 4 stars. A quarter-century later, Roger would have adored the lavish Arrow Home Video release.
The release of a 4K version of "The Fall" last year helped put the visionary Tarsem back into the cultural conversation. Hopefully, this release can continue to get this underrated filmmaker the attention that Roger thought he had long deserved.
