Tetrady not as good as all the hype

ChicRawIdol A brilliant film that helped define a genre

Aedonerre I gave this film a 9 out of 10, because it was exactly what I expected it to be.

Gurlyndrobb While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.

dlmdevries I really enjoyed this movie! It's a movie, that gets you motivated on your own goals or the way you look at things in life. A positive movie, about making your dream come true.This movie has a great and powerful story and it's really interesting to see how Gene's character developed through the movie. The actors and actresses did a great job at portraying their characters! I especially enjoyed Eli Wallach's performance.It was great to see the relationship between Gene and his father. Both had their troubles and hurt, but somehow in the end both became winners. Both made their dream come true.Of course Michael's performance was awesome! :) If you want to see a GOOD movie with a strong message, then this is definitely a must see!

andrew-l-cawston "Rocky" this ain't. But as a semi-autobiographical tale of Michael Landon, it's well worth renting on a Friday nite and watching, with hot cocoa and popcorn, on the couch in front of a fire.And, unlike Rocky, it is (loosely) based on a real story.This was written for an earlier, more innocent time. A tale of rags-to-riches, with plenty of Inspiration and pathos to match.Michael Landon makes his appearance at the very end of the movie, and it is achieved in a manner that is both just and fitting. For once, the Good Guys win.The movie's title is a neat hint as to what is about to happen as the story plays out to its climax.I last saw this twenty years ago, and I enjoyed it then. And I remember it now. A good, memorable story. Well done.Refreshing in its lack of special effects, violence, foul language and sex that pervades today's movie scene... Heck! "Sam's Son" could make a wholesome change from the usual fare.So it's OK to bring in the wife and kids to enjoy this story with the hot cocoa and popcorn and pizza. It will do them no harm, and may inspire them to achieve. Bonus Points!Double Bonus points: Celine Dion does not sing the credits, or get anywhere near the movie. The Cater-waul has no place in the credits: only good music throughout.

The Doomite I stumbled upon this video by accident at the local library, and I remembered that my mom watched it one time when it was on the USA Network. It seemed to be a pretty good movie from the little I remembered of it, so I went ahead and checked it out. It turned out to be a wise decision. This is one of those movies where you find yourself literally applauding the actions of the main character (Gene Orowitz) and his beloved father, Sam. You can really sense the bond that these two people have as the movie progresses. They both seem to learn the lesson that no matter how unlikely a dream seems to be, it can always come true if you work at it hard enough. This is a nice movie to watch on a lazy afternoon or evening, as it really doesn't take much to get (and stay) involved in the story. It's got humor, suspense, romance, drama, and even a tear-jerking moment or two thrown in for good measure. Overall, it's a good film, worth watching at least once.
