Summary: If you get the big picture, you'll love this movie
Review: What is the big picture? Well, you have to see the movie to understand what I'm talking about. Personally, I think I get the big picture and that's why I love this movie so much.

Peter O'Toole is great in this. So are Vincent Spano, Virginia Madsen, Mariel Hemingway, and David Ogden Stiers.

What can I say about this story? It's sometimes hard for me to explain it to people who haven't seen it. When some people hear "a man tries to regrow his dead wife" they sort of cringe and think it's some sort of weird sci fi or horror movie.

It's neither - it's a love story. Actually, it's several love stories. You've got the love Harry has for his late wife, the love between him and Millie, the love between Boris and Barbara, and even the love (non-romantic) between Boris and Harry.

Still, Creator is far from a typical "love story." It's very unique. I've never seen another movie quite like it.

It's got a great cast and great story with a nice mix of humor, drama, and romance. If you haven't seen it, you should give it a try.

If you're the sort of person who gets "the big picture," you'll probably end up liking this movie a lot.

Summary: O'Toole rules! Nifty combo of biotech and romantic comedy!
Review: Wonderful combination of biotechnology and romantic comedy. O'Toole's performance is poignant and believable. Interesting concept in view of advances in the science of cloning since the film was made. I've been looking for it on video for a long time!
