Summary: SOGGY BUT FUN
Review: HARD RAIN is enough to make you never want to see it rain again. Filmed entirely during the horrific storm and with the threatening collapse of the local dam, this movie requires some squinting of the eyes just to tell who's who. Director Mikael Solomon keeps things moving, and if the whole plot wasn't so darn preposterous and absurd, this could have been a classic. There are some great chase scenes, double crosses, etc., etc. It's just not very believable.
Christian Slater's laconic performance is reminiscent of a young Jack Nicholson, but he seems awkward and clumsy as an action hero (ditto BROKEN ARROW), but he's pleasant. Morgan Freeman reprises his bad guy role from CHAIN REACTION and the future NURSE BETTY with his usual grace and precision. Morgan's probably never given a bad performance. Randy Quaid is grim and vile as the sheriff gone bad, and Betty White/Richard Dysart provide some fun comic relief as an elderly couple who refuse to leave town. (Wonder what happens to them though---last we see them they're stuck in a tree?).
HARD RAIN may have benefitted from a more believable lead, say Bruce Willis, but it's entertaining and delivers, in spite of its silliness.

Summary: Twisted plot, but still a good movie
Review: Hard Rain might have a twisted plot, pitting an armored truck guard against some robbers who are trying to steal 3 million dollars, but that doesn't really make it a bad movie. All the while, they're surrounded by a massive flood as their main obstacle. Hard Rain has some of the best actors such as Morgan Freeman and Randy Quaid playing the leading roles and they all do great jobs. Hard Rain also has some good action sequences and a lot of suspense throughout the film. It's like a wet and wild goosechase with everybody trying to catch Christian Slater in order to get the money. The special effects with all the water and rain couldn't have been done much better. Hard Rain is just another usual action movie until Morgan Freeman joins Christian Slater and they both team up and try to survive against the other robbers. That's when this movie gets a lot better with all the suspense and action. If you like good action movies with some suspense added in, you will probably like Hard Rain. The only drawback is the twisted plot, sometimes you might wonder what the movie is really about. But watch it and you'll figure it out without a problem.

Summary: Trash
Review: Horrible and boring (to say the least), in a movie that could be good and had high potential. The acting was just so bad too (and Morgan Freeman is always brilliant). The directing was bad, the script was bad, and the acting was the worst. There was not a thing to like about this movie.

Summary: GREAT ACTION
Review: I DO NOT CARE WHAT ANYONE SAYS, THE PLOT AND LANGUAGE MAY NOT BE UP TO PAR, BUT THE ACTION WAS ENOUGH FOR ME. HARD RAIN IS A MOVIE I MAY LOOK AT FIVE TIMES THROUGH OUT THE WINTER. IT'S SOOOO! LONG AND INTERESTING THAT IT FILLS THOSE WINTER BLAHS. I LOVE ALL THAT WATER.

Summary: hard rain delivers
Review: i saw hard rain being advertised because it was on usa one tuesday night so i decided to give it a try. i'm glad i did. the movie was very good. i liked the part in the high school when they were on those motorcycles or whatever they were on going through the school. i have been trying to buy this movie for a long time but i can't track it down. don't listen to the critics they don't know how to have any fun. check out hard rain. i don't want to go in to the plot. i want to surprise you. rated r for some violence.

Summary: It was a brilliant film that didn't involve too much violenc
Review: I think Hard Rain is an awesome film and you should definately go and see it. I must say the only reason I saw it was because I'm a huge fan of Cristian Slater (Who isn't), I didn't really know what it was about apart from rain so I thought I'd give it a try. I personally think it's a top film. You'll have to watch it though and get your own opinion.

Summary: Interesting Concept
Review: I think this is the only disaster film that evolves around floods. A brilliant concept packed with action & thriller surrounding a robbery. That jail escape by Christian Slater from the rising waters was just suspenseful. I wonder how he did it without getting an electrical shock. A movie flaw? maybe... 4 stars for Hard Rain.

Summary: Great! Would watch it over, and over again!
Review: I thought that this movie was amazing. I have been wanting to rent/buy it ever since I saw it a couple of months ago. It was just sitting on the shelf and it looked good, so I rented it and it turns out it's one of my favorite movies. I have never really seen any of Minnie Drivers movies, or Slaters for that matter, but I will definately go back and check out there other titles as well. I give this movie a 9 out of 10. Great plot, great actors/actresses. Definately a buy!
