Summary: Loved This Movie. John Malkovich is great.
Review: I became interested in this movie, because I always thought that John Malkovich was a great actor in everything. Especially in In The Line Of Fire. I became curious of this movie when I heard it was a comedy. I rented it last night and thought it was great. I just placed an order for the dvd. There is just the right amount of humor. Both John Malkovich and Andie Macdowell are great together in this. I only gave it four stars because I think there could have been a little less scenes with the deaf and mute maid. However, I did think she was good in it. There was also a part of the story that they could have done without, and they didn't bring any closer to it. But, I highly recommend this movie. Especially if you are fans of John Malkovich and Andie Macdowell. It was nice to see John Malkovich as a nice guy, with some short comings though. He had great humor. I would definitly like to see him play this type of character again.

Summary: A fun movie to see! Especially Andie.
Review: I loved this movie! It's a lot of fun to watch and very entertaining. The plot was a little confusing but i'm a huge Andie MacDowell fan, so i was occupied by her charm in this movie. It has a lot of cute jokes and even non jokes were still funny by the expressions on the actors faces. It was a very cute movie to watch. For all Andie fans, this is a great on to see. She's stunning in it. So i highly recommend it, just for the joy of Andie and a cute fun movie to watch!

Summary: Still a great movie, inspite of the DVD edition
Review: I was totally frustrated sharing one of my all time favorites with my husband and not being able to hear the dialog that makes this movie so unique. This movie has a depth, rich use of language, passionate characters, a plot and the classic American happy ending. I still learn something every time I watch it, but was surprised to find it in the Comedy section. And I love that I still cry when the deaf girl explains why she stole the piece. Great Art moves you. And for art lovers who want the real Henry Moore experience, go to the Art Gallery of Ontario, in Toronto.

Summary: like having an idyllic and incomplete bath
Review: The turning point is dramatic as well as spontaneous. The movie represents a subliminal attitude resting in the life of everyone, potentially.

Summary: Good Movie, Bad DVD
Review: This is a really good film for people who appreciate subtlety and somewhat offbeat character development. This will not impress people who tend to gravitate more towards action or overt drama. Malkovich and MacDowell turn in understated, nicely done performances as the films antiheroes, and they accomplish the somewhat difficult task of making us feel for these self-involved characters. All the other characters are played well and the different plots mesh nicely.The only complaint I have is with the DVD itself. The audio was abysmal on my system, and I am not really the pickiest of audiophiles. In fact, this is the only time that I've been disappointed in or even noticed a DVD's lack of sound quality. My player has a special feature that brings dialogue to the center speaker, and for some reason it would not work with this DVD. The dialogue was difficult to understand throughout, and I often had to adjust the volume and replay bits of scenes to figure out what had been said. Also, there are zero special features on this DVD... no trailers, no commentary, nada. I would wait for a better transfer rather than buying this DVD version of the film. It's definitely worth a rent, however, for those who can appreciate what it has to offer.
