Movie Reviews of Happy Accidents
Movie Review: Oh, Happy D'Onofrio!
Summary: 5 Stars
The beginning is a little overwrought, but it picks up pretty quickly, and the very last little end bit (not the second to the last) is the afterthought that explains everything, almost. If you think about it all too hard you realize . . . well, no need to think too hard. Love is not about logic. Marisa is affectionate and spontaneous and cute, as usual.
More importantly, Vincent D'Onofrio should give a master class in fully clothed on-screen eroticism. In fact, he is welcome to rehearse such a class at my apartment . . .
P.S. I don't know if I got a bad pressing or what (I think it may have been a bootleg - unintentional on my part), but the DVD with the blue cover has speeded up sound (and maybe visual), which completely ruins the movie. Stick to the one with the yellow cover. These things make a huge difference.
Movie Review: D'Onifrio fans will love this movie!
Summary: 5 Stars
This movie is a delightful change from what I usually seem to see around these days. It was funny and sensual at the same time. D'Onifrio, who looks like any ordinary guy you might meet in your home town, has this wonderful ability to take your breath away! This movie is no exception and proves once again that great love scenes can capture the viewer without the actor or actress needing to take their clothes off. This movie caught my attention from the very beginning and never let it go. I was kept guessing until the very end as to what was real and what was not. The humor was lighthearted and refreshing. The acting was supurb, making the characters all very believable. I highly recommend this movie to anyone who would like to just be entertained. And if your a D'Onifrio fan as myself, then this movie is a must see!Movie Review: Grab it, before it goes back from where it came
Summary: 5 Stars
Like Vincent D'Onofrio's John Malkovich-meets-Rain Man time traveler, this sort of popped up in my local video store one day, seemingly out of the blue, and charmed the heck out of me. I had never even heard of it, which is too bad--it's a haunting little movie that deserves a much wider audience. Before I get started, a question: Why is Marisa Tomei so marginalized? Between this and "In the Bedroom" she has given us 2 excellent recent performances; why no major gigs? Is it her incredibly low hairline? Her non-starlet proportions? Honestly, that's all I could think about after watching her--it can't be her plentiful talent.
Anyway, this is a very well-done time-travel piece a la "La Jette" or its modern counterpart, "12 Monkeys." If, like me, you're a sucker for the genre, by all means, buy this.
Movie Review: d'onofrio never disappoints!

Summary: 5 Stars
Wow! Was I pleasantly surprised at this movie. The story line may seem simple: boy meets girl, boy and girl have problems, will boy and girl be able to make it? Is boy certifiable? Tomei's charachter has been burned before. She thinks she has finally met a great guy until he tells her he's a "back traveller" and begins to spin an elaborate tale of life in the future. Meanwhile she's thinking "Great, another nut job!". The whole time you are guessing about what could possibly be wrong with this guy because this relationship has just got to work. Did he kill his sister? Did he witness a brutal death? Does he have some form of epilepsy? He couldn't really be from the future and somehow now be living in modern day New York? Hmmm... you've got to see it to enjoy it.
