Crappy film
Admirable film.
The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one
The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.
the movie is full of yelling.. all the time Tom cruise was arguing with his brother and that mad man repeating an old unfunny joke "who was on first base." WTF!! i just wonder how people could handle to watch 2 hours of tow brothers fighting and arguing and one of them so mean that he was keeping offend his lame brother.
dustin Hoffman's performance in this film is amazing as he plays along side tom cruise in this wonderful movie from the late 80s making it a classic iconic film that doesn't disappoint or disinterest viewers from the screen until the very end,this is one of the best if not the best drama film i have ever seen ,two thumbs up.
When I watched this movie, I was impressed by the performance of Dustin Hoffman. His performance is wonderful and makes us think that he has really autism, for example, his screaming, the way he talks, his laughing and so on. Although Raymond that Dustin Hoffman plays talks monotonically, his performance tells us feeling of Raymond. As a result, I was absorbed in this story. In this story, Carlie and Raymond are described in contact. In generally, I think that they don't understand each other. However, Carlie changes slowly through contacting with Raymond. I think that this change is also attractive in this story. I think that this movie contains many meanings, so when we watched this movie again and again, I think that our feelings and thought will change. Because of this, I want to watch this movie carefully again and understand point of uncertainly and hidden meanings. I think that this movie is able to enjoy and be impressed!
I think this movie showed that humans can have peculiar understandings, and implicitly proved that we can make everything real! because what is real?? like other good movies it doesn't stand in our mind and slides to our heart to make sense ! it stimulated the willing for power in the spectators!
