Rating: Summary: A SURPRISING DISAPPOINTMENT Review: Lawrence Benders' surreal comedy is split into four sequences, linked by bell boy, Tim Roth as he goes through each room, dealing with off the wall customers. Its all a bit of a hit and miss affair. Ambitious and seemingly desperate to plumb new depths, it often fails with many scenees falling flat. This is all the more surprising when it has such an impressive and talented cast which includes Madonna, Antonio Banderas, Quentin Tarentino, David Proval and Amanda De Cadanet. The whole thing holds a few laughs along the way but on the whole its only very moderatley enjoyable. See it only if curiosity gets the better of you.
Rating: Summary: Great cast, weird plot Review: I rented this movie because it seemed like it had a great cast (Bruce Willis is my favorite actor) and I am a big fan of Tarrantino. However the movie turned out to be very disappointing. It is about a bellhop (Roth) who encounters some very interesting guests as he goes to 4 different rooms. I ended up turning off the movie in the third room because I couldn't stomach any more. After watching the first hour and cringing at each of the different rooms, I realized this was not for me. There are some very twisted thoughts in this movie. The first room involves a bunch of witches including Madonna and for some reason a couple (not Madonna though) take their tops off. The second room made even less sense, with a drunk man a gun and his tied up wife. As the bellhop went to each room I got more and more disturbed and ended up turning it off and returning it for something else. This movie is probably great for someone into cult films, but I thought I was getting a comedy with a great cast and turned out to be very disappointed.
Rating: Summary: Four Rooms, Four Stars Review: Tim Roth is absolutely hilarious in this movie. Nobody could've done it better! Clever concept, very funny, rent it first, though - I did, I loved it, but not everyone will. Enjoy!
Rating: Summary: 3 out of four aint bad Review: Its been a while since I've seen this, but I bought it knowing that I really enjoyed the first foray at the cinema. Four stories, by four different directors, all threaded together by the bellhop. Obvious praise is spread on to Jerry Lewis of the similar film he made, by non other than QT who acts in the final story/room. ITs comedy, there's no doubt about that. The worst story is bar far the first, the witches are merely an opportunity for Madonna and her pals to take their tops off. Thankfully, it gets better from that moment on, and there is a definate feeling for the bellhop by the time the whole fiasco ends. Hats off the the idea, and all credit to the actors, who really managed to pull off what would otherwise have been a so-so idea turned movie. Buy it, its worth the laughs on one of those lazy afternoons.
Rating: Summary: The most fun you'll have while bored. Review: I personally liked this conglomerated offerings of several different directors (the most noteworthy of which being none other than Quentin Tarentino, the man, the myth, the legend). I'm too darn lazy to look up the other contributors so screw it, on with the review. This movie is all about Ted, the bellboy (played by Tim Roth, of at least two other Tarantino films), who is stuck at a sprawling Hollywood hotel on New Year's Eve. Ted is faced with four equally nerve-wracking sets of guests, which nearly drive him over the edge. At least he gets something in return for his hard work in the end (in the Tarantino directed segment). The soundtrack is done entirely by the incredibly talented but underrated band Combustible Edison (insert fanfare here), who are one of my favorite bands, of not my current favorite. All in all I'd say this movie is at least worth a rental and probably a purchase too (if you can find it, stores generally tend to listen to big, biased evil critic demons from Uranus). Huzzaw!
Rating: Summary: DO YOU LIKE COMEDY? SO THIS Isn't the movie for you! Review: There's no comedy here. Fooled by a great cast, people went to see this garbage (or rent it), and got perpleexed by Roth's horrible acting, trying to vote which of the four episodes is the worst of them. By the way, has anyone seen Tarantino around these days...?
Rating: Summary: 4 worlds Review: If you have ever worked in a hotel, this is a must see. If you haven't, it will give you a better idea of what they may go thru. I laugh so hard, I cried.
Rating: Summary: four rooms Review: I'm sorry...I am in the wrong section.I only saw this movie once,and I came in on the middle of that.I want to reply to the section where I can see when it will air again.that's how much I liked it.
Rating: Summary: Right...... Review: This movie is probably one of the best low budget films I have ever seen, Great comedy and props to Roth for his great job as the bellboy...-d-
Rating: Summary: I love Four Rooms and Tim Roth! Review: Amazing punchline. I really love this film.
