SunnyHello Nice effects though.

Dorathen Better Late Then Never

Maidexpl Entertaining from beginning to end, it maintains the spirit of the franchise while establishing it's own seal with a fun cast

Loui Blair It's a feast for the eyes. But what really makes this dramedy work is the acting.

Jim Mullen Tate (TheFearmakers) Wanna see Henry Winkler beat up a barroom full of bikers without the use of his magical leather jacket? In HEROES he plays a goofy, manic, troubled Vietnam Vet who, after escaping from a mental institution in New York, travels across country, energized by bizarre plans to build a worm farm in Eureka, California, with the (hopeful) help of his fellow vets...Along the way, via bus, while pestering put-upon driver Val Avery, Winkler's Jack Dunne meets lonely, single, soon-to-be-wed Sally Field as Carol (the same year she'd be a reluctant fiance in SMOKEY AND THE BANDIT), and the first of his "Nam " cronies played by soon-to-be-famous Harrison Ford, the same year he'd help The Rebel Alliance rescue a princess, here basically rehashing his AMERICAN GRAFFITI "Bob Falfa" character: but with issues, and zero backbone. Despite time being spent (with the trio) on his family's rural, white trash farm, and getting to see Ford shoot a machine gun, down Budweisers and drive a hot rod - it all merely serves as a catapult for the second half, when the inevitable romantic element between Henry and Sally sets in. Alas, Ford's Ken "Ace of Diamonds" Boyd could've been played by anyone. And the fact he's bullied and is afraid to compete on the race track, perhaps another actor would have fit better: for legacy's sake... Who knew that that incredible science-fiction fantasy he'd appear in would take off, and wimpy roles like this would suit him no longer... but it's Henry's vehicle anyway...As he weaves in and out of craziness whenever the story runs out of stream, which is most of the way through, his mental illness serves as a platform to not only ham it up with what feels like improv to bust up the surrounding cast and crew, but to charm Field, whose rudimentary annoyance eventually turns to love: Not sure, though, if the audience feels the same way...His sometimes grating bouts with innocently optimistic lunacy is often much too "cute" to be taken seriously, and Winkler as a veteran of any war is extremely difficult to believe. But most of any actor's genuine strength are in the intensity of their eyes, and when called for, he wields a pretty nasty glare. So for road movie fluff you could do much worse. And word has it that HEROES was much better when the Kansas anthem "Carry On My Wayward Son" closed the curtain. Well it is true that in any picture, one song can make a difference.

mckinney-6 I remember seeing this movie when it came out in the theater. Tonight I got to see it at home on TV after all these years. The big surprise is the ending song of the movie was changed! "Carry On My Wayward Son" by Kansas was changed for some trivial song about Heroes. I don't understand why. That was one of best parts of the movie. Sally Field is one of the best dramatic actresses I have seen. She is right up there with Katherine Hepburn and Anne Baxter. Henry Winkler did OK but I think other actors could of done just as well. Harrison Ford was underused. The plot was very thin. What a shame not to use the talent they had available to a better use. They really could of developed the characters more and got rid of the fight scenes and racing cars. Sad

Elisa Houstino Wow. Big names, and a big story as well. I adored this movie, and for more reasons than my loyalty to Henry Winkler. Sally Field and Harrison Ford also gave a deep and touching performance, and I would recommend this movie to anyone. It had its sad moments where I cried--however I do cry in every movie so do not take this as an example. Though, it also has its moments that made you laugh and moments that made you sit up in your seat and bite your nails. Although I didn't really like the ending to the movie, the overall theme and story to it all I thoroughly enjoyed. I, somewhat nice with my ratings, would have given it a 10 no questions asked if it were not for the ending. I think they should have gone on a little further. Watch it! It has my vote!

willrams Here's the Fonz, Henry Winkler, who plays a returned veteran a little on the crazy side, but with plenty of personality and ambition to hoodwink several people into his crazy schemes. We see several scenes of the Fonz in the nude; he has a beautiful body. He has a penchant to allure older women into his arms and head, with crazy schemes for making a living, which he doesn't! One cute lady is not older than he, Sally Fields, and she is drawn to him. He is such a cooky free personality; that watching this film made me wonder what could possibly happen to him; that is the essence of this film; the acting is superb! Harrison Ford has one of his earliest film performances as one of his friends. There are a lot of sincere emotions in this film, and the photography and music are great, too.
