Crackerjack Posted June 29, 2005 Report Posted June 29, 2005 Rocked my world!! It is truly an amazing film... 2 hours of complete intensity. SS really did a great job directing this movie. As for acting Dakota Fanning (the little girl from Man on Fire) did an excellent job as always. Suprisingly enough Tom Cruise did a great job playing the immature dad. I would suggest everyone sees this movie.... it is truly amazing. Quote
Lurker Posted June 29, 2005 Report Posted June 29, 2005 Seeing it tomorrow. Tom Cruise is a badass actor, and Dakota Fanning never seems to disappoint. What can you say about SS other than he's one of if not the best director there is around. I'm so hyped. Quote
silver Posted June 29, 2005 Report Posted June 29, 2005 hmm for some reason it got rather bad crits in denmark... they say its a actionripoff from good ole Orson Wellis Quote
Lurker Posted June 29, 2005 Report Posted June 29, 2005 Its an adaptation of the radio broadcast, so duh its a ripoff Its getting awesome reviews over here (Canada, and in the US as well) Quote
Crackerjack Posted June 29, 2005 Author Report Posted June 29, 2005 Hehe there is a part in the movie where they turn on the radio and it gives out one of the test emergency signal announcment deals and the guys goes "This is the emergency signal sound... this is only a test... if not a test an emergency official will come on and announce the emergency... this is only a test... thank you".... Now I understand why that was in the movie because of that radio broadcast Quote
Erratic Posted June 30, 2005 Report Posted June 30, 2005 Just saw it this afternoon. I thought it was awesome. The movie doesn't waste that much time getting started either. Probably one of the few Tom Cruise movies where you see the character on screen, rather than a character, played by Tom Cruise. And Dakota Fanning scares me. Quote
Phlek Posted June 30, 2005 Report Posted June 30, 2005 I heard it was a great movie, but the end just ruined it all. I guess I'll have to see for myself. Quote
hamst3r Posted June 30, 2005 Report Posted June 30, 2005 Amazing movie.....I thought it was honestly spectacular. Great acting, an amazing story line, and beatutiful special effects, all blended togheter into a incredible flim. I would suggest everyone sees this movie.... it is truly amazing. Quote
mikezilla Posted June 30, 2005 Report Posted June 30, 2005 no question. fantastic. anyone who doesn't like or get the ending probably isn't giving it the thought it deserves. 1) thats how the book ends 2) it's brilliant and ironic and awesome. Quote
Mazy Posted June 30, 2005 Report Posted June 30, 2005 Going to see it on Tuesday, looking quite forward to it~ Quote
GrayFox Posted June 30, 2005 Report Posted June 30, 2005 I heard about the ending ruining the movie before I saw it but I can assure you IT DOES NOT. Spielberg always delivers so I didn't really pay attention to any criticism. Quote
