Summary: Comedy plus Shakespeare
Review: I can't believe that only 10 people have wrote a review for "Renaissance Man." I thought it was a lot more popular than that and I know that it deserves all the praise and popularity that it can get! Bill Rago (Danny DeVito) takes a job as a teacher in the Army even though he doesn't have any teaching experience and doesn't really want the job. Yeah I agree that that does sound a little far fetched, but not all movies have to tell a true story! Bill doesn't exactly know what to teach about, so he just teaches the 'students' about something he really likes, the book, Hamlet. Will the army students enjoy learning about Hamlet or will they think it's boring? Will Bill Rago be a good teacher or a fluke? I recommend watching the movie to find out. I thought "Renaissance Man" was a great movie. Unlike what many people might think or might had heard about it previously, it's not really a full-fledged comedy movie. Danny DeVito is hilarious in the movie and the part that I'll remember the most from the whole movie is one of the funniest parts I've ever seen in any movie!! I couldn't quit laughing at the part where Danny DeVito got to the top of a tall place in the army, and he has to try and work his way down with a rope even though he's TERRIFIED of heights. "Renaissance Man" has a few other hilarious parts, but really when it all comes down to it, it's more of a drama movie and more of a feel-good movie than it is a comedy. Not that that's bad, but that's the only complaint I have whatsoever about the movie, it could've had a few more hilarious parts where more people would have given it rave reviews and remembered it the rest of their lives. However, it wasn't bad enough to take away any of my rating for it, so I still give it a 5. If you like great comedy/drama movies, I recommend getting "Renaissance Man." You'll laugh your head off and feel the drama at the same time.

Summary: Renaisance Man - Great
Review: I have just watched this movie on the TV. I can honestly say this touched me. I remember Shakespear from school and pushed me back. I only wish this was on DVD. Devito is great finally coming round to what all must see as a fine portrayal of a teacher caring for his students. I have seen it in other movies yet I can honestly say I was clasping my hands as each 'DD' reached his conclusion on Hamlet. Great movie...

Summary: Above average movie with laughs and heart
Review: I never expected to see this movie released on DVD as it wasn't that big a hit. Danny DeVito is a great comic actor though and really helps this movie pull through. Danny DeVito plays an unemployed ad executive who is forced into a job teaching below average military recruits how to think. The plot is somewhat original yet is unbelievable at times. The concept of a necessary english teacher in the army is not actually sensible. Regardless of this, everything seems to work. Laughs come periodically, but it's more about following the characters, each one can be related to and can be felt for. It's not the greatest movie, but overall it's a nice heart felt comedy.

Summary: Danny De Vito
Review: I simply adored this movie with Danny De Vito! I really cracked up with the scene where he goes up the victory tower and has to come down. I also love Lillo Brancato and his impersonations of "Scarface" and the "Raging Bull." I'm not a real Shakespeare fan, but I admit that I definitely got into this movie. Danny is on my top 10 of favorites.

Summary: tops the charts
Review: I watched this movie and immediately fell in love with it, not only because I am studying english, but because it has great morals in it and it a very movie that is suprisingly clean for movies of this day and age. If you appreciate clean humor or like studying Shakespeare this could be the movie for you.
