Smartorhypo Highly Overrated But Still Good

Curapedi I cannot think of one single thing that I would change about this film. The acting is incomparable, the directing deft, and the writing poignantly brilliant.

Teddie Blake The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.

Janis One of the most extraordinary films you will see this year. Take that as you want.

udar55 This Australian TV movie is a fun little watch. It is a mystery with supernatural overtones as insurance man Ted Morrow (Hugh Keays-Byrne) shows up to investigate the unusual death of a man who was apparently run over by a train in a place where there are no train tracks. What really makes this movie enjoyable is the lead performance of Keays-Byrne, he of "Toecutter" fame from MAD MAX fame. He plays the character as a bit of an eccentric and really adds a lot to the role. Director Igor Auzins bends the mystery to leave both the logical and supernatural options open at the end of the film. This is wonderful in the sense that you can imagine Morrow as being completely insane with the way he unravels the mystery.

Jethroangel I found a copy of this film on the $2.99 rack of a video store. They were selling it, I guess because no one was renting it anymore. Concidering it was a television movie, I thought it was done very well. The advertisements (for other films) that came before the feature film where aweful, worst I've ever seen. However, the film was alot better. The director, Igor Auzins, makes use of a somewhat cheesy, but stylistic technique in the begining, by zooming out then freeing a single frame with zoom blur for dramatic effect. Other than that I thought the film was done very well. After the cheesy zoom blur effect, the film had an almost dark feeling, but not quite. The main character, Ted Morrow, was done very well. His character development was exactly what you needed/wanted to see. Most television movies look as if they are for television. I was suprised to find out this was a television movie. I would recomend this to anyone, who can not only find a copy of it, but enjoys a good old fashion character developing suspense story that is unlike post-Blair Witch Project suspense/horror films that have no endings and don't have enough story to even be called nonsence.
