Beanbioca As Good As It Gets

BelSports This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.

Matho The biggest problem with this movie is it’s a little better than you think it might be, which somehow makes it worse. As in, it takes itself a bit too seriously, which makes most of the movie feel kind of dull.

Wuchak RELEASED IN 1994 and directed by Richard Donner, "Maverick" stars Mel Gibson as the amicable titular gambler who meets up with a fetching scam-artist (Jodi Foster), an aged marshal (James Garner) and an ill-tempered outlaw (Alfred Molina) on his way to a poker tournament on a riverboat at the Columbia River Gorge. Who will win the tournament? James Coburn plays the dubious host on the riverboat while Graham Greene appears as a comical Native chief.The tone is along the lines of comedy Westerns like "The Duchess and the Dirtwater Fox" (1976), "Support Your Local Sheriff" (1969) and "Texas Across the River" (1966) so, if you like those Westerns, you'll probably appreciate this one ("Texas" is more campy though). The Western locations are to die for and Foster is striking. The camaraderie of the three main stars is entertaining. The sequence with Graham Greene in the second act stands out and is only surpassed by the riverboat sequence in the last act.THE FILM RUNS 127 minutes and was shot in Arizona (Glen Canyon, Lake Powell, Mescal, Page, Lee's Ferry and Marble Canyon), Utah (Glen Canyon), California (Yosemite National Park, Lone Pine, El Mirage Dry Lake & Burbank studios) and Washington/Oregon (Columbia River Gorge & Beacon Rock).

slightlymad22 Maverick (1994)Plot In A Paragraph: Maverick (Gibson) is a gambler who needs $3000 in order to enter a Winner Take All poker game that begins in a few days. He tries to win some, tries to collect a few debts, and recover a little loot for the reward. He joins forces with a woman gambler Annabelle (Jodie Foster) as the two head to enter the game.I often felt Gibson was under rated as a comedic actor and he is on top form and is clearly enjoying himself here. Jodie Foster looks as attractive as she ever had on screen, whilst always talented, "attractive" was never a term used to describe her. The problem I have with the movie is, they seemed to be having more fun making the movie, then I actually had watching it. The original Maverick James Garner has a supporting role and James Coburn is on fine form. Alfred Molina does OK as Angel, Whilst Corey Feldman (what happened to him from the days of Goonies, Lost Boys and Stand By Me) pops up as a bank robber, as does Mel Gibson's Lethal Weapon co star Danny Glover. In my favourite scene in the movie Glover's and Gibson's characters appear to almost recognise each other. The Lethal Weapon movies were all directed by Richard Donner who directed this movie. During their appearance on screen, the Lethal Weapon theme song can be heard, and as Glover departs he says "I'm too old for this s**t!!"Maverick was another Gibson movie that crossed the 100 million line at the domestic box office. Grossing $101 million, to end the year the 12th highest grossing movie of 1994.

mike fernando I'm surprisingly disappointed to see the rating of 7 after finished of seeing this movie. I think this deserves more than 7 after people managed to give 7 stars for a film like Amazing spider man 1. I must admit the fact that lead characters performances are the wholesome factor of this movie. Mel Gibson looked charming and screen captivating as usual and Jodie Foster is remarkable combination to make the film more attractive.wittiness and story narrating is quite well sure one of the easy going story will be soothing you any time of you watch. highly recommend to watch and enjoy the movie even you not familiar with Poker playing stuffs.go for this weekend along with this movie.

SnoopyStyle Maverick (Mel Gibson) is a charming gambler who needs $25k to enter a poker tournament with at least half million at stake. It's happening in a few days on a steamboat run by Commodore Duvall (James Coburn). Maverick is a quick draw and one of the best card player. He encounters other characters like the macho Angel (Alfred Molina), the sexy con Annabelle Bransford (Jodie Foster), and Marshal Zane Cooper (James Garner). The tournament is not just about the money but a challenge to his abilities. It's one misadventure after another as he tries to gather the money together.It's a good fun western that has a nice comfortable charm. To emphasize that, director Richard Donner got 'Lethal Weapon' cohort Danny Glover to play a cameo as a bank robber. By no means is this a gut busting comedy. The best thing is the great chemistry between the film's trio.
