ReaderKenka Let's be realistic.

MusicChat It's complicated... I really like the directing, acting and writing but, there are issues with the way it's shot that I just can't deny. As much as I love the storytelling and the fantastic performance but, there are also certain scenes that didn't need to exist.

anthony-727 Malcolm McDowell just has the most wonderful charisma and he probably more than any other actor is the only person capable of making this work.It has a few flaws and when we spend all of our time talking about character arcs - Dexter Miles has none. He is a brutal serial killer. We are given the facts via his own narration and the rest of the cast are the only one that are kept in the dark.I've seen the I hate reviews and well though I see there point - I quite simply enjoyed the whole movie. Garwin Sanford is given a slating but feel he walks through with the character in true FBI fashion - there factual flaws - but I don't care. I enjoyed it and think you have to watch it... you will come down on one side or the other.

disdressed12 this is a hard movie to watch.mainly because it is so slow.if you are expecting action,you won't find it here.what you will find is a character study of sorts.the characters propel movie more than anything else.it's a murder mystery/drama that takes place in Alaska in the dead of winter,when it is cold and dark for 24 hours a day.Malcolm McDowell plays the barber,but he is more than a barber.he puts in a good performance here,and the supporting actors are also good.aside from that,there isn't a lot worth watching the movie for.instead of having an ending of any sort,it just ends.i was just hoping that if nothing else,some loose ends would be tied up.i might have rated the movie bit higher in that case.as it is,i give The Barber a 4/10.as an aside,this movie is similar in spirit to Fargo(though i thought Fargo was a better movie),so if you liked that movie,you might want to check out this movie,or vice versa.

cherylread I kept waiting for this film to go somewhere, but it just didn't. There were too many Dumb and Dumber wannabes in it stinking up the action. It was good when McDowell on on screen and lousy the rest of the time. Unfortunately, McDowell wasn't on screen enough. The rest of the cast was very, very amateurish. What a profound disappointment.

tedg Spoilers herein."Fargo" without the go, "Albino Alligator" without the wrinkles, "The Gardener" without Angie, "Invisible Man" made visible, "Insomnia" without the light and most of all, "Twin Peaks" with only one peak.McDowell has built a career of his role in "Clockwork Orange:" a demented brilliance of character.It is possible to make an interesting film like this. All of the above have something worth watching. But you cannot do it with voiceovers.All three of the murdered women were or became redheads. Ted's Evaluation -- 1 of 4: You can find something better to do with this part of your life.
