Phenomenon

Summary: A long way from Vinny Barbarino
Review: This is a film that I enjoy very much, but I can't say exactly why. John Travolta is very good in this role as a simple man with good friends who is touched by an unknown power that provides a extraordinary gift, along with an unfortunate curse. There are a few messages in the film, but that's not what drives it. It's good acting, good entertainment and a pleasure to watch. If I were to ever meet John Travolta, I'd hope he'd be like George Malley (his character). It's hard to believe this is the same JT from "Welcome Back Kotter". Give this film a chance ... you'll like it.

Review: Until this Movie, I did not like John Travolta. This movie is top notch, it's a "girl" movie in general, however I would recommend it to anyone. John will never top this movie - a powerful performance !

Summary: Great movie
Review: This s one of the best moves ever! It moves you like no other movie can ( well, maybe expect Michael also with Travolta) This is a must see film which tells an importent story of how rasictial people can become. Other then that it is a wonderful love story. If you do not cry in the end of this movie then you must have a heart of stone.

Review: Watch Phenomenon with Frank Capra's christmas classic and see how each life touches another. even the characters names are similar. the perfect date movie.

Review: There are some occasional moments, but basicially this is borrow from last year's Powder, which is basically on the same plot. Silly.

Review: Alright, listen. John Travolta was cool in Pulp Fiction because he was a sort of campy, out-of-context, but very well-used surprise. But the "comeback" of Travolta since then is just silly. Like Tom Hanks, he's now just a big, money-drawing name being cast in roles that would've been far better suited to other actors. Phenomenon is a good example of a silly "that never should've been Travolta" flick. I'll admit that, this considered, he doesn't do all THAT bad a job with the role, but the movie suffers from its obligatory Hollywood trappings, some poorly used music, and a lukewarm, familiar premise. Not as bad of a movie as I would've expected, but not great either. Get over Travolta -- he worked in PF, but now he's just gumpy, over-used, and over-praised.

Summary: A Good Story, Well Told
Review: I liked this movie a lot. The sound track was good but I swear they switched musical numbers on two scenes. This isn't one of the top 100 movies of all time, but the story is interesting enough to make it worth viewing multiple times. The ending of the movie is very touching and reminds me of the end of the movie "Nell" with Jodie Foster -- showing all the people whose lives have been touched by one special person. I think this is human nature at its best.

Review: This film actually made me a Travolta fan. He is stupendous, evoking laughter, tears and smiles. While the film can break your heart, it can also lift your spirit.
