Summary: A touching one...
Review: I burst into tears when I saw the movie(DVD). I know it is just a fantasy, but I can't help myself thinking that if someday I can also "contact" my dad who passed away ten years ago somehow like this. That will be amazing. Question: Is there a soundtrack published with this movie? The music and songs in it are terrific.

Summary: My kind of movie
Review: "Frequency" is my kind of movie. I like the whole communication into the past thing. It reminds me of "Back to the Future." I just saw it and it is very entertaining. Trust me, if you see it, you will want to see the whole thing.

Summary: nostalgic -suspensful
Review: Watching this movie sparked a part of me from my youthful days, a slower time of growing-up and enjoying my family and friends. Father worship, bigger than life, mister invincible all rolled in one. And than there's the Sci-Fi involvement of what if... and that intrigues me very much especially when it is done very well. My background is graphic design/ computer art and I'm usually looking at how the special effects were done. Portions of the movie used great graphics and some used not so great, but you get passed it by the story line (simple). All in all Frequency was entertaining and that is why I liked it. Yes, I would see it again.

Summary: Simply, pathetic.
Review: This is another example of Hollywood at its worst. The premise is just hard to swallow. The dialogues and story all conspire to make a joke of a movie. You have turn off your brain to see this one. It is rather pathetic.

Summary: Challenging to follow but worth the effort
Review: This is a complex movie, slow-moving in places, which bears careful attention to dialog and details, otherwise you'll be lost -- and you may well still feel lost in places on a first viewing. I have seen it twice and still found myself adrift from time to time. But the premise is so fascinating - parallel time, time paradoxes and so forth, and the execution and acting are so adept, that after a while the film does grab the viewer and doesn't let go. Spending time with it is well worth the effort.A friend of mine, a mystery film aficionado, stated flatly after her first viewing that "Frequency" is the best mystery film she has ever seen. This is a lady who grooves on Hitchcock, Agatha Christie, Hercule Poirot and the like and who usually disdains science fiction. High praise for "Frequency" indeed. I could not get into some of the special features on the DVD. I don't know if the problem was with the DVD itself or my DVD player. I wonder if others have had a similar problem.

Summary: Good solid movie
Review: I bought the DVD and was very happy with it. The cast was great. The movie kept my attention and I can easily sit through this a second time. Dennis Quaid is a favorite of mine, and he had a great performance. Can't wait to see his next movie.

Summary: relatively intriguing sci-fi thriller
Review: A relatively intelligent sci-fi thriller that in the end doesn't really amount to much, "Frequency" emerges as a father/son reconciliation drama with a "Twilight Zone" twist. Written by Toby Emmerich and directed by Gregory Hoblit, the film stars Dennis Quaid as a New York firefighter in 1969 who manages, through some fluke of nature, to contact his very own son, Johnny (Jim Caviezel), via short wave radio, thirty years in the future. The filmmakers manage to come up with a surprisingly large number of narrative twists and turns to keep this potentially one-note premise intriguing and interesting as father and son come to know each other across the normally uncrossable chasm of time. For instance, Johnny not only has to try to reverse history and prevent his father's untimely death in a fire in 1969, but also to thwart the murders of his mother and of several other women by a serial killer during that same time period. A film like "Frequency" really doesn't have much going for it but the ingenuity of its plot. Whenever it tries to get meaningful and touching, particularly in its exploration of the father/son relationship, the film dissolves in a puddle of hopelessly contrived and manufactured sentimentality. On the other hand, "Frequency" does manage to keep to a minimum the maddening inconsistencies and lapses in logic that invariably accompany these time-bending scenarios. Moreover, the filmmakers make clever use of the famous 1969 World Series, astutely finding ways to incorporate it into the fabric of the drama. On a trivial level, the film does seem to suffer from an apparent oversight on the part of its makers. The movie is supposed to be set in New York City in the Octobers of 1969 and 1999 - yet, correct me if I'm wrong, but wouldn't at least some of the trees be turning colors and dropping leaves by that time? As far as we can tell, the movie seems to have been filmed during the summer months. For a film whose very foundation is to question the very nature of time, this seemingly insignificant error looms larger than it perhaps otherwise might. A film of this sort really doesn't stand up to too close scrutiny. A viewer either accepts the incredibility of the premise and goes with it, or rejects the concept out of hand and moves on to another film. Suffice it to say then that, given its fundamental plot-is-everything nature, "Frequency" makes for reasonably diverting and absorbing viewing.

Summary: Another fantastic movie by Gregory Hoblit
Review: I bought Frequency last week on DVD and didn't know what to expect. But I wasn't disappointed. This movie is absolutely fantastic. It's a suspenseful thriller with a touch of family-feeling and the question of wether or not you should change the past. This may sound a little old-fashioned but it's not. This is one of the movies I will remember for a long time and watch for many, many times. Again, and again, and again...

Summary: Good opener but I quickly lost interest
Review: whatever these reviewers are on, I want some. This movie dragged. I kept waiting for something cool to happen, but they just kept talking to eachother over the mic-bla bla bla blaaa. I wouldn't know if the conversation was good because I just fastforwarded all of it after a while. A real bore.

Summary: WOW!
Review: Have you ever thought to yourself what if I did "this" differently in life or what if "this person" was still living, how could my life be now?? Well, this movie will answer your question! This is a very well done movie that all can enjoy! Also, there isn't alot of foul language to kill the movie (like many movies out there). Just when you think you have figured out what is going to happen everything changes. So it definately keeps your attention!! I can't wait to watch it again!!
