Instant Favorite.

Captivating movie !

Everything about this movie is fantastic, from the story to the acting. Everything here is perfect and watching Creator is a formative experience. I have seen this movie the first time when I was a kid and it formed the way I think about love, friendship, life. The idea of the big picture in life is simply amazing and the way this idea is delivered is unique. I highly recommend this movie to everyone.Each and every actor in the movie is great. Peter O'Toole is amazing, Mariel Hemingway is fantastic in her role as a happy and light girl and the other actors (I don't remember their name now) are astounding.I am shocked that this movie has such a low rating, it's really a good movie!

I really tried to like this film about a doctor who has the possibility of a new life with a young woman if he can comes to terms with the death of his wife. I suppose this was to play like a quirky light romantic comedy but the theme is a little uncomfortable for me.But putting that aside, I found the dialog was too much like a stage play despite being based on a novel and also,the mediocre acting was embarrassing to watch especially by the young lead Vincent Spano.I have been sort of trying to catch up on all the eighties movies I missed during that decade. It has been my pet peeve that eighties nostalgia buffs seem to focus on the same core canon of films usually featuring the brat pack actors and actresses and neglecting the other films like Creator that have fallen through the cracks. But in the case of this feature I have to say I can understand it. Not all of these eighties films were magical and Creator is proof of this.

I was very surprised to see the range of reviews this movie received. Especially the ones from 1-5. That just does not make sense to me. The characters of Harry and Boris were fantastic in this movie. The relationship they formed with one another and the ones they had with there love ones was so touching and heart warming. I admit that when I was told about the outline of the movie I thought it was stupid but then thankfully I was not a stubborn person about it and watched it anyway. I am your typical guy from Brooklyn/Staten Island and I will admit that this movie made me cry, not as much as I cried at the end of Field of Dreams, but I cried nonetheless. Grab your video card and the person you love and watch this movie. If the both of you are truly in love, you will be glad that you watched this movie. The simple message in this movie is don't give up on love no matter how hopeless the situation.

Creator is one of only a handful of films that I would call original. The characters are complex and three-dimensional, genuine and intriguing (some of the best performances I've ever seen, especially Peter O'Toole). The story, too, is genuine, using everyday people and circumstances to approach powerful themes. What I appreciate most, however, is that the film is deep without being pretentious, and philosophical without losing its entertainment value. Creator is often underrated, probably because it strays from the structure that man moviegoers have come to rely on in a feature film, but it deserves a lot of credit, and is one of the most creative, insightful, and overall extraordinary films I've ever seen.
