Summary: Absolutely wonderful.
Review: I'm glad to see that this DVD is selling well (it's #52 as I write this) because it deserves to. This is simply one of the best films I have ever seen. If you can, watch it alone or with others who are serious about watching movies, 'cause you have to pay attention. If you do I think you will find yourself fully engrossed and emotionally involved. It has elements of mystery, sci-fi fantasy and drama, and great performances by Quaid, et al. It explores a familiar theme--i.e. what would be the consequences of changing the past, but with a unique twist I think.The DVD has some nice extras, including a look at the special effects and some other things that tie in with the subject matter, and also one of those oh-so-cool full-motion scene menus (like The Matrix), but the main attraction in this package is definitely the feature.

Summary: First rate science fiction thriller
Review: This highly imaginative science fiction thriller is an entertaining mind bender of a film. Toby Emmerich's story takes a fresh approach to the time travel angle. Rather than having people traveling through time, Emmerich has them communicating through time using a Ham Radio that has been augmented by an Aurora Borealis. Ok, there aren't many Aurora Borealis events as far south as New York City, but there isn't any trans-time communication noted in the scientific literature either, so we need to allow the story a little latitude. After we accept the premise, this ingenious plot incorporates many different elements to entice the viewer. There is the human angle of a son speaking to his dead father, the many twists resulting from altering the ribbon of time, and the solving of a thirty-year-old serial murder case. The various elements are combined effectively by director Gregory Hoblit (Primal Fear, Fallen) to produce a fast paced action thriller with sufficient character development to bind us emotionally to the characters. The fascinating thing about the detective story is that the facts of the crime keep changing in unexpected ways each time John (James Caviezel) imparts something to his father (Dennis Quaid) that causes him to change history. In addition, the action sequences are well done and the visual effects, especially the digitized Aurora are nicely rendered. The aging makeup is also realistic. The acting was excellent as well, though the New York accents were pretty bad. Dennis Quaid alternated between the goofy and endearing dad and the action hero, and managed to keep it from seeming incongruous. This was a breakout performance by James Caviezel, who heretofore has been confined to minor roles. His was a very emotional and tense role and he handled it extremely well. I was also impressed with Elizabeth Mitchell who gave a vivacious performance as John's mother. I enjoy a good intelligent science fiction thriller. Lately, science fiction has been subsumed into the horror category, since you seldom see a science fiction story that isn't an excuse to hack up some cast members. This film was more in the tradition of Twilight Zone, relying more on an inventive story than grisly effects to capture the audience. That's why I rated this film a 9/10. With luck, this will inspire a return to more creative science fiction.

Summary: Truly unforgettable...
Review: Few movies can truly touch an emotional cord in one's life...especially one involving the relationship between a father and a son. Frequency is not only a movie that explores a deep emotional relationship between a father and son, but suprisingly it is a movie that contains an action packed plot that will keep you on the edge of your seat. I not only highly recommend this movie to all who all willing to watch, but even more so I suggest that fathers and sons watch it together. Doing so can truly foster an unforgettable emotional experience between the two. It did for me...

Summary: This one grabs you
Review: I'll keep this review short. Overlook the few loopholes that are in the plot. I'm not going to point them out because that's petty. This is a very suspenseful movie that will keep you on the edge of your seat throughout. It might also raise a lump or two in your throat. Lost opportunities and second chances is what this story is all about. And it does do a very good job handling the many pitfalls that can arise in a time travel story. It's well worth ones time to watch this movie. It's good to see a science fiction story that keeps it's sense of humanity. The special effects and hardware are not only secondary they're almost non-exsistent. Great movie.

Summary: Very good
Review: I love time travel stories. In this one, nobody actually travels through time; rather, a father and son communicate with each other across the years. Doing so causes some unexpected and tragic changes in the past, which they are then honor-bound to set right if they can. I suspect that some mighty big plot holes would open up if I thought about this one too hard, but the basic concept is so appealing that I was willing to go with it. There is also a good, solid human relationship story at the core of this science-fiction thriller. A very entertaining film.

Summary: If you do not want to be confused, DO NOT see this.
Review: At 16 maybe im too young to appreciate this type of movie but i realy didnt like it. When i first saw it at the movies i came out feeling very boared, confused and thought i was missing something. So when i had the oppotunity to see it again i thought i might understand it more. Nope i was just as confused and parts of this movie just do not fit together. From its advertising it sounded realy good, but its not what i thought it would be. I give it 2 stars for the good acting and the good parts here and there but thats all.

Summary: A great story
Review: If you remember 1969 (or you were too young to remember, like me) you'll like this movie. From the atmosphere of the time, to the clothing, to the ham radio, it can be nostalgic. Watching these two men working together to change the past for the better from two eras....can it be done? Watch this movie and find out. Good story and very heartfelt. The DVD offers some great addtional features, especially the commentary by Toby & Noah Emmerich -- these guys had fun making this film.
