| My only reason for seeing this film is because Luis Guzman is in it.
Raul Julia plays "Chico Mendes" who tried to save his people in the Amazon Rainforest. A story that needed to be told, but this film is overlong and slow-moving. I do believe the rainforests should be saved and destroying them should be stopped. Instead of decreasing them the forests should be expanded. The rainforests are beneficial to our weather. Their is wildlife there and flowers used for ... Read More: |

| Has all the subtlety of an elephant's tread. A group of American soldiers are kidnapped by Russkies, brainwashed to assassinate a Presidential Candidate. The man chosen to do the job is the very wooden Harvey doing all sorts of facial-contortions that are supposed to be passed off as acting. The most debilitating part of the movie is the absurdity of watching that Italian Club-Singer trying, you guessed it, act. Of all the bad looking rats to have ever disgraced America Cinema, Sinatra must take the cake. ... Read More: |

| I may have to edit the opening scene some for my high school audience, but they will certainly be watching this movie. It was wonderfully made. I loved the mix of original pictures and movies intertwined with the story plot. I would highly recommend this for any Alabama history buff or for Gary Sinise fan. My mom even sat and watched this with me. |

| Some of the best actors in Hollywood are in this film, but the best performance, as far as I am concerned is by Burt Lancaster. When I read this book and saw the movie as a teenager, it scared me to death to think how easy it would have been to topple our government. I would highly recommend this movie for any age range, with the caveat that reading the book first would enhance the experience. |

| My husband had seen this movie when he was young and had talked so much about it that I went to Amazon (where you can find anything you want) and ordered it for his birthday. He was so excited that I had found it but was disappointed that it was not the orginal movie. He said it was good, full of history "the real story" of that period but did drag a little. All in all, I think he was pleased that I had even found the movie to share with his friends. |

| Well acted, well directed historical fiction about the Nazi invasion of France. Some parts too violent for young kids, but the train wrecks and explosions are masterpieces. Great movie! |

|
| Director John Frankenheimer is most well-known for some of his suspsense thrillers he made, including The Manchurian Candidate and Seven Days in May, but Black Sunday has somehow escaped the spotlight. In late 1975, Mossad agent David Kabakov leads an assault on a terrorist compound of Black September and uncovers evidence that the group is planning an attack somewhere in the U.S. soon after the New Year. Kabakov teams up with the FBI to try and uncover and prevent the plot and soon founds out the intended target, Super Bowl X in ... Read More: |

|
| This is director John Frankenheimer's classic masterpiece of filmmaking. The mesmerizing story of a political and psychological subterfuge is devastating. This is one of Frank Sinatra's finest performances (he has always been underrated as an actor in my opinion) as is Laurence Harvey's (also underrated and somewhat forgotten over time). David Amram's score is prophetically apt. This is a personal favorite of mine. The images (the deck of cards, Henry Silva's unique appearance, the garden party sequences), situations and dialogue have remained ... Read More: |
