An excellent film. Good story (with a few plot weaknesses), good acting, excellent photography and music. Tom Hanks did an exceptionally good job of NOT being Tom Hanks. Some violence but not filled with blood and gore. Not a typical story about gangsters, but a story with a message. It should pick up some Academy Award nominations.
Most things about this movie were exceptional: acting, photography, music. It was not the typical "Godfather" movie either; it had a deeper message about father/son relationships and how we can be trapped into a world we do not choose. However, there were a couple of plot irregularities. I don`t always like Tom Hanks, but he was exceptional here.
great movie simplistic script winning performances
Not a bad novie but could`ve been so much more, which in fact makes it worse than a bad movie. A sloppy overly sentimental father and son movie that fails the gangster genre. If I had never seen the Godfather, this might be a good movie.
you know what i think? i think that when people write down stuff about how this movie sucked, they are those air-headed people who don`t have a good balance between chick flicks and good dark drama... i watch a lot of both so thats a good balance but hey this movie was great...
The best movie ever made! This movie will get a ton of Academy awards!
WOW another great Tom Hanks performance. Defintely a must see! A wonderful story line capped by incredible acting. By far the best movie of the summer.
i thought this was one of tom hank`s best films he`s ever done.
Great movie but very predictable.The filming at it`s best!!!!
