Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Really something special.
Review: Ransom is a very clever,intelligent and original hostage thriler.It is brilliantly acted throughout and has an outstanding pace.A real must see of the year,along with Con Air and The English Patient.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: THE BEST MOVIE OF 1996!
Review: Ransom is a film everybody should own. Mel Gibson plays the partof a rich airline owner. Gary Sinise is the creepy and subtlekidnapper. The movie is frightnigly tense with the scenes between Gibson and Sinise on the phone. With plenty of clever twists Ransom is a must see movie. BUY IT NOW!!!!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Ransom was a good movie.
Review: Brawley Nolte did an excellent job of portraying Sean Mullen.I couldn't help but be afraid for Sean's life.Gary Sinise did a super job as Jimmy Shaker.I didn't like Jimmy Shaker,but I have to admit,he was a genius compared to alot of criminals.I would have asked for more money than he did,but I would also treat the person I was kidnapping alot nicer than he did.Why? So that the kid would try to talk his parents out of trying to kill me for kidnapping their son.If Brawley Nolte should ever read this,I want him to know that he did a great job as Sean Mullen.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Mel Gibson at his best!
Review: This movie is truly one of best the movies Mel Gibson has ever made. He effectively shows the audience how a father brought to a point of desperation, will do what ever is necessary to save his kidnapped son. It truly is a movie deserving of a five star rating.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: FANTASTIC, but scary
Review: This is a fantastic movie, but scary anything like this could happen. Imagin being that kid, jeesh. Freaky. Absolutely Fantastic movie.

Summary: Another Crummy Ron Howard Movie
Review: Dull. Bad. Over violent. Mel Gibson trots out his three acting tricks. Only Gary Sinise manages to create anything credible in this stupid flick. If you want to see an interesting movie with a similar plot, rent Kurosawa's High And Low. Avoid Ransom.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The best movie with a 5 star cast
Review: This gripping thriller about a kidnapping is an absolute must-see. The drama is gripping, the suspense is real, with edge-of-your seat excitment. Mel Gibson and Gary Sinise lead the cast in an unforgetable, tense, sweat-soaked, gripping story about the young boy of wealthy Tom Mullen, who is held for ransom by a band of ruthless kidnappers. The long, drawn out sequences between Gibson and Sinise just add to the suspense. This is Mel Gibson at his absolute best! Ransom is probalbly the best movie I've seen. Gary Sinise is mesmorizing as the kidnapper and makes the movie all the more exciting. It's action-thriller, suspence, and drama all at once. Fantastic!

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: BORING
Review: Am I the only one in the world who thought this movie was as entertaining as a funeral? I guess so.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Another lousy Ron Howard movie
Review: Bad. Really bad. Only Gary Sinise manages to save this nearly unbearable flick. Avoid it. It is silly, predictable, and revels in violence. For an interesting movie with a similar plot, watch Kurosawa's High and Low.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: 5 Star Cast!
Review: Gibson's acting in this equaled to that of Braveheart. He made the tension of losing a son so dramatic that you needed to feel sorry for him! Gary Sinise's role in this was great too! The way that he treated a kid seemed the way that any kidnapper would treat their victim. This movie is a must-see!
