Matialth Good concept, poorly executed.

GarnettTeenage The film was still a fun one that will make you laugh and have you leaving the theater feeling like you just stole something valuable and got away with it.

Sameer Callahan It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.

Casey Duggan It’s sentimental, ridiculously long and only occasionally funny

serkesche This for me best movie of all times... This for me best movie of all times.. This for me best movie of all times.... This for me best movie of all times......

sambullough The stage-script adaptation of this movie was one of the only stage performances which lost me in the dialog/performance.. (in the Tivoloi Theater in Dublin, a number of years ago..) Usually stage scripts/performances leave me constantly trying to let go of the fact that acting people are standing in-front of me on-stage, acting their lines, but this was different. The actors were flawless, The content was sparse yet poignant... I left aghast! Now seeing this version featuring Samuel L. Jackson and Tommy Lee Jones... I'm again mesmerized! Simply two men, in one room... great acting... Welll worth the watch! *****

noname No specific spoiler but There might be a sort of generalizing that acts that way.This probably epitomizes why I think Samuel Jackson is great. He's always more or less the same powerful hysterically adamant guy. Here's a screenplay by Cormack McCarty (SP?) and excellent diect5ing by Tommy Lee Jones....A very actorly piece if there ever was one...a couple guys in a room...randomly brought together in the most extreme sort of discussion.Proof positive again that all the special effects in the world don't hold a candle to masterful human interplay...at least in my book....so I do inevitably make that comparison. There are 2 occasions in particular where what and how Jackson delivers that are so compelling and fantastically funny, though the topic is anything but...where I burst out laughing...not just the exhilaration of performance ...but the sheer immediacy and dark comedy and accuracy of his delivery........As good as Tommy Lee is here he is somewhat miscast...an action guy playing an intellectual.....but it's still pretty perfect....it's the "afterimage" of all his previous things that dis-prepare me for him in this role...but no matter.If you are a Jackson fan especially...like me...or if you haven't discovered him yet...you must see this ......Other moviess that are tour de force in a similar vain are Chines Coffee with Al Pacino and Jerry Orbach and To Sleep with Anger with SDanny Glover.In these 3 movies you have unusually powerful character studies.We are all pretty much movie addicts I suppose...I w3onder if anyone reads these reviews....Well...ifg you are glancing at this and you like character driven movies...do yourself a favor and see this and if you like it see the other 2 I mentioned. I'm not particularly arrogant or overconfident but I know a t6hing or 2....You just can't miss with this movie.....

borislavmiletic I must say I like this movie. Both actors played well, Samuel better than Tommy though. The setting is really good, and unobtrusive sound effects added to the atmosphere. The plot of the movie is their discussion.Their discussion stays on course for most of the time. I think towards the end, occasionally they do stray away a bit but that's OK. The discussion itself is very interesting, although not as deep as I expected it to be. There's a dose of humor in some of their arguments which I liked a lot. It made me smile, even laugh a couple of times.If you want a nice intellectual experience without the burden of things too hard to understand then this movie is for you.
