CrawlerChunky In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.
SanEat A film with more than the usual spoiler issues. Talking about it in any detail feels akin to handing you a gift-wrapped present and saying, "I hope you like it -- It's a thriller about a diabolical secret experiment."
Guillelmina The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.
Logan By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.
mehdiscott "Dallas Buyers Club" is definitely worth the detour for this true and incredible story worn by Matthew McConaughey whose charisma sparkles! It is indeed all the internal evolution and also the physical evolution of this character, Ron Woodrooff, which is remarkable ... Evolution which is made throughout its fight against the disease and at the same time against the system put in place by the FDA ... His awareness that will lead him to change completely at all to find himself at the head this Buyers Club where another way to heal is possible, is quite phenomenal. Lost and HIV-positive individuals like him, will be able to take a little hope, which is also put forward to captivate us completely ... On the other hand, the relationship that is installed against all odds, between Ron and the young transvestite Rayon, is also interesting to follow to be very touching, very moving! In this regard, all the latent homophobia in the film takes on a very different dimension and color depending on the various protagonists of this story. Of course, there remains the whole financial and ambiguous aspect through the hospital, the doctors and these blind and destructive treatments by AZT, of which the FDA is the guarantor. In the end, a very beautiful film about this scandal updated in the United States in the 80s!
Andrea Tsereteli (House of Targaryen) Once it gets going, it's really great. Matthew McConaughey makes a transformation that rivals the levels of Christian Bale, and Jared Leto steals it when he shows up. Check it out before the Oscars! The fireworks caused by pitting never-say-die Texas bravado against heartlessness is a powerful mix, and the film manages to be an inspiring tale amidst all this sadness.
ahoolm Amazingly well played by Matthew McConaughey and Jared Leto. Loved every moment of it.
Irishchatter I really thought Matthew McConaughey, Jared Leto and Jennifer Garner were very good at their performances in this film documentary. I have never seen McConaughey look super thin, even though he is normally a thin man in real life. This movie does show how AIDS and HIV were treated so poorly in the 80s and early 90s. I was so sad when Jared Leto's character died of the disease. He reminds me so much of the guy who died of aids from the musical "Rent". I nearly was in tears seriously, it was so emotional. After the ending of the movie, it does make you think and really, we should look after those in need of help while having HIV or aids!
