Review: What a wonderful movie..I laughed,I cried, and was so captivated that love can be projected like this. Wonderful actors, very real story...get the tissues, and share this movie with as many friends as you can...even the hetrosexual community would see the gay community alittle different...Please watch this movie...

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: beautiful
Review: This is a great movie, with great performances, especially by Eric Roberts, Marlee Matlin, Lee Grant, Margaret Cho, and Olivia Newton-John. The characters are all very interesting and the interaction between the actors is great. The humor keeps the movie from becoming too schmaltzy and teary.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: If you have questioned Eric Roberts talents be4, C this!
Review: What a wonderfully written, beautifully acted movie.It is thought provoking & touching, raising questions about Aids,euthanasia & death with dignity.Eric Roberts, in a departure role for him as a usual bad boy of film, gives an OUTSTANDING performance as a victim of Aids who wants to die with dignity, so throws a party with all of his closest friends & family members. His ex lover who had previously left him since he was having difficulty dealing with the illness, ends up at the party, & they come to terms with their break up, & the inevitable. Fantastic performances abound in this movie: Gregory Harrison,Lee Grant,Olivia Newton John,Bronson Pinchot (Who provides the comic relief), Margaret Cho, Marlee Matlin, & of course, the ever fabulously talented Roddy MacDowell. I was worried that this movie would be terribly depressing...I had trouble with Philadelphia.Though that movie was well written & acted, I found it oppressive. 'It's My Party' is fantasic!You'll laugh, you'll cry, & the soundtrack is wonderful.Reminded me a bit of 'The Big Chill' because of the soundtrack, but this film is so thoroughly entertaining.'It's About Time'! Eric Roberts got a good role to showcase his amazing talents. What an incredibly talented actor! Just see it!

Rating: 5 stars

Summary: Roberts, Newton-John, Chou, and Harrison Shine!
Review: This was a remarkable and very touching ensemble movie. The casting was excellent. Olivia Newton-John and Eric Roberts put in spectacular performances with touching and funny Margaret Chou and Gregory Harrison putting in wonderful performances as well. This touched close to home and was a heart tugging emotional ride. You have to see it with a close friend or family member. Olivia's song, "Don't Cut Me Down" was a fitting end to the movie.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Wonderful, Superb, and Extremely Emotional!
Review: Randall Kleiser spent ten arduous years trying to make this film and, even with the resistance of Hollywood execs, he ended with a Masterpiece of film. Eric Roberts gives a standout performance as a dying AIDS patient wanting desperately to make ammends with his former lover and filmmaker Gregory Harrison.

The Film, shot sequentially, was marvelous from beginning to end with exceptional and marked performances by Olivia Newton-John (magical as always), Margaret Chou (perfect), Marlee Matlin (an endearing portrayal), George Seagal (understated perfectly), and the legendary Lee Grant (a wonderfully emotional performance fitting only a great actress).

Much akin to the illustrious Ordinary People, the film is finely tuned and timed perfectly with a verve unlike many films made today. Milla Jovovich's beautiful rendering (her album Divine Comedy's "It's Your Life") during a mystical scene half-way through the movie is so enchanting as to make one believe in Synchronicity, fate, and true loves. ...at the end, the passionate Olivia Newton-John's song perfects the moment and endures the legacy of Randall Kleiser's efforts to bring a cinematic treat to audiences drenched in tawdry sex, mindless violence, and myopic screenplays. It makes you cry, it makes you laugh, and it makes you realize that we all have to need each other and should love peace and tranquility above all else, and just be there for each other and respect each other as they are. What a place the world would be if we really followed the Golden Rule and tried only to regulate our lives rather than everyone else's.

Summary: Eric Roberts @ his best
Review: It's My Party was a very thought provoking movie for me. I do not know of anyone with AIDS but I must admit that I feel lucky for that. The pain and dignity that Eric Roberts brought to his character made me realize why I've always believed he was in the movie business not just for the money. He makes you feel so many emotions in this movie. I would recommend this to anyone who needs to realize that life is too short-learn to live now!

Rating: 5 stars
