Chris' Movie Questions: My MYSTIC RIVER Review

<< < (30/32) > >>

littleguitar:
it's been a while... but I remember it being alright.  I wasn't as impressed as most people.  I have to be honest, I'm not a Charlize Theron fan, I think she's a fairly overrated actress.  Don't get me wrong, she was good in Monster, but I've seen better.

Ok next is Monster...Charlize Theron in what is supposed to be one of the most incredible performances in cinematic history (Roger Ebert)...

It's OK, in this case I think most critic's (R.E.) included were mesmerised by the transformation  wrought by the make-up department and confused it for great acting.  She's good and she's believable but she didn't make me forget even for a second that she was really Charlise Theron

This is another one that I'm ashamed to say I never saw...it being such a huge hit and me being a HUGE Tom Hanks fan...plus I love Robert Zemeckis too...is Cast Away worth the $233 million it made?

I liked it.  Thought it was excellent.  Tom Hanks at his best.  Only role I liked him in more was Road to Perdition.

 :) Castaway was pretty much a one man show and Tom Hanks really went the distance for it losing a lot of weight to make himself look almost emaciated - the ending was kinda strange though - all in all a pretty good movie, I think.....................
