Movie Reviews of Fortress
Movie Review: Fortress
Summary: 5 Stars
Before this film became as available as it is now, I looked long and hard for it. I had to settle for a used VHS version, but I didn't care, because I found this movie to be that interesting.
It all starts mundane enough, with a teacher and students in a one-room schoolhouse in Australia. Everybody does the things teachers and students do normally until the bad guys arrive and the rug is pulled out from everyday life.
As the scenes and situations shift and change, so do the roles and hierarchy of the teacher and students. The last part of the movie, when the teacher and students are involved with police is unnerving and heartwarming and horrible and satisfying all at the same time.
This movie shows many of the primal and tribal things that are part of the human past and present and the resourcefulness and ferocity that can arise in people chosen as victims.
It's left up to us to figure out what we just viewed. We don't even know whether the children are psychologically scarred for life by what's happened to them and what they've done as a consequence.
Thought-provoking on many levels, with a feeling of reality that hits home. History and even the daily news shows us that people are capable of things that seem improbable if not impossible. It's not hard to believe the premise of this movie.
Movie Review: 80's Childhood All Over Again
Summary: 5 Stars
If your a child of the 80's such as myself then this film will capture your innocence again just like your back in time when all things on the horizon were exciting but still off enough in the distance to live your childhood through real life experiences.
This movie perfectly captures a slice of the 80's. It has a rather dark theme and mood to it but at the same time an element of nostalgia. The music is done with synthesizers and captures the mood beautifully. The quality of the film has that mid 80's look to it and the lighting shades are quite interesting as well.
The story is simple yet exciting when your a kid. When your an adult watching it again it is all about remembering what you think your gonna remember and of coarse you do!
Check it out! A rare gem of an 80's Review: Awesome
Summary: 5 Stars This is one of the best movies I have ever watched when I wasn't suppose to be watching movies like this. I was like 10 or 11 when I first saw this movie. It has stuck in my mind all my life. When I describe this movie to people they have no clue what I'm talking about until one day I was telling a friend of mine and he said I know that movie. It's "The Fortress". I gave him a hug huge and a kiss on the cheek. I was very greatful.

Summary: 5 Stars
I'm so glad that I bought this dvd! I read this book several years ago and when I saw that the movie had been released I just had to see how it compared to the book that I enjoyed so much. In my opinion, this is a very entertaining movie and I felt that the actors did a great job of keeping the excitement level up. You should check it out as I think you will like it.
