Bereamic Awesome Movie

Logan By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.

Cheryl A clunky actioner with a handful of cool moments.

PassTheButteredKarn What was the point of this travesty? Might as well take all the masterpieces and do remakes and heap insult and sacrilege. Was this a charity case for Mr. Reeves? If so, nice intent. However, nice intents can turn into embarrassment. As it is when you try to replace Jimmy Stewart on the screen. And Daryl Hannah as the contemporary Grace Kelly replacement? Another horribly cast blemish.I would love to hear what Hitch would have to say to the producer, director, and actors of this farce. I do not understand why some producers want to "modernize" a classic. Occasionally, it can be pulled off with some success, but not here.

TheisticRug This movie was the best! I don't care what other people have been saying. The acting was top-notch. I have NEVER, I repeat, NEVER seen such a good made-for-TV movie in my life. Christopher Reeves is the best actor out there. I loved the Superman films, and to see him on his feet again is just great. I hope he keeps on acting in the future, and he WILL WALK AGAIN! The supporting cast was just as good. It was Darryl Hannahs best role since Kill Bill (Volume 1 & 2). And Christopher's caretakers weren't too bad either. I don't see why lots of people are hating this film. Better than Titanic any day. And I was so happy to see that his co-worker became his lover. All in all, the best film I've seen all year.

EnriqueH While nobody expected this to be anywhere near as good as Hitchcock's classic, I found the film surprisingly engrossing. Some people might say Reeve didn't stretch his abilities, but I would argue that he still convinced me that he was Jason Kemp. Reeve's character is absolutely helpless, whereas Jimmy Stewart could still use his arms, and this made Reeve's character all the more vulnerable. It made for a more suspenseful, edge-of-your-seat film. I've read that this film was simply a showcase for the gadgets that Reeve uses to live life, but I think that's an unfair criticism of a thoroughly enjoyable, not to mention educational, film.The rest of the cast provides solid support, but it's Reeve's show all the way. I'm glad the accident didn't keep him away from acting. He's always been an underrated actor, except as Superman, so it's good to see a different role provide him with a high profile opportunity to showcase his acting ability. (If you're curious about Reeve's other great roles, I'd definitely check out Deathtrap, where he stole the show from Michael Caine and Dyan Cannon.)

tlaycock-3 It is not just another remake. They destroyed what was a good story line.Christopher Reeve plays on everyone's sympathy because he was paralyzed. He should have stopped acting before he made this show. It was pure trash. Next try to make something.
