Cocktail

Summary: NOT A VERY GOOD DRINK
Review: Another Tom Cruise 'slice of life' film in which he plays a budding bartender. You can't go very far with that synopsis. All budding bartenders eventually realize there's more to life. This is like the characters from "Midnight Cowboy" with credit cards.

Summary: One of the worst films ever made
Review: Tom Cruise at his worst. Not even the lovely Elisabeth Shuecan save this movie. ...this film is a disaster. Bryan Brown should be ashamed of taking a part in this potboiler. What an awful plot. Don't buy it. Don't even see it.

Summary: This movie rocks!
Review: I would just like to say that anyone who thinks the plot in this movie is paperthin is obviously not a sucker for romantic comedies. I personally loved the poetry, and thought the fact that Brian was willing to stick by Jordan's side was absolutely charming and lovable. I also enjoyed the way he refused to sleep with Doug's wife ("Yes, it's called marriage.") This is a wonderful movie, comparable to Coyote Ugly, which I also loved.

Summary: WAFER THIN PLOT BUT STILL ENTERTAINING!
Review: Typical 1980's vehicle for Tom Cruise where he plays a bartender who wants to meet rich and beautiful women in this romantic, light weight drama. However despite the thin plot and lack of depth with some of its supporting actors it is entertaining stuff if you're not in the mood for anything too demanding. Plenty of beautiful, exotic location shots and engaging performances from Tom Cruise, Elizabeth Shue and Bryan Brown. Defintley worth a look!

Summary: Coming From A Batender......
Review: This movie was very entertaining in all ways! I actually learned a lot from this movie as a bartender! Tom Cruise and Bryan Brown worked extremely well together. Get this movie if you want to laugh, feel sad, and then feel good again.

Summary: Cocktail-Stupid,Embarrasing, and Boring
Review: What can I say, the barroom scenes with the stupid poetry pretty much tell you how dumb this film is. BIG DEAL-So the bartenders are gifted at twirling and throwing bottles around-SO WHAT?Dialouge is stupid, Elizabeth Shue is good to look at, but quite annoying.Only thing I liked about this piece of garbage is soundtrack which kicks!

Summary: Cocktail - Need a VOMIT BAG for this one!
Review: The poetry scenes in the bar make me sick!This is a film that is pure garbage. Big Deal-the bartenders can juggle bottles and glasses!The only saving grace is that it does have a kickin soundtrack.(Beach Boys, Mellencamp, etc.)

Summary: Perhaps the worst movie ever made
Review: I watched this movie on tv last night. I have to admit that everytime this is on, I have to watch it. Why, you ask? Because it is perhaps the worst movie ever made. It's like slowing down to see an accident on the side of the road. There are parts of this movie that will actually make you cringe, (the bar/poem scenes especially). Who would go to a bar run by these guys? With all the jumping and singing and bottle throwing, you'ld never get your drink! "Coctails and Dreams"! That cracks me up, too! The story is paper thin and trots out just about every possible cliche. The dialog is completely unbelievable. The one up side is that parents can use this movie as a tool to insure that their kids will never pick up a drink or go to a bar. Just say "NO"!
