Movie Reviews of Islands in the Stream
Movie Review: Finally on DVD
Summary: 5 Stars
I wish I could point to individual pieces of this film I found particularly moving but it was no one thing that made it appealing. It was Hemingway and George C. Scott and the music of Jerry Goldsmith that just put it over the top. I'd been waiting for this to be released on DVD for years but was just a little disappointed more time wasn't spent with the audio. I found Jerry Goldsmiths music pretty "thin". It just didn't have the richness it deserved when it was dubbed. I still loved this movie. It just could have been a little better.Movie Review: George C. Scotts finest performance
Summary: 5 Stars
A very relaxing movie to watch. Picturesque landscapes, great characters!!!! This movie had some great character actors Hollywood never fully utilized. A great human story of life, love, war and peace, tragedy and death. Oh and the soundtrack is wonderful! So calming and soothing. Always a great family movie! When I'm away from family I appreciate this film the most. You feel like your right there with George C. Scott. I cant explain it. Again, great for the whole family!!!Movie Review: Islands in the Stream
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a classic that never reviewed the praise it deserves. I rank it in the top 25 movies made. George C. Scott is brillant. He offers the viewer love, romance, adventure, drama, and... the Ocean. Each time I see "Island in the Stream" I enjoy it more.Movie Review: Islands in the Stream
Summary: 5 Stars
Great movie and George C. Scott at his very best. I've read the Hemingway novel of the same name and like the movie adaptation better. Filmed on location in the Bahamas and wonderful scenery and music. This is film making at it's best.Movie Review: Another Great Performance by G.C. Scott
Summary: 5 Stars
What can you say about Islands in the Stream except that the story is a classic and George C. Scott does another stellar performance in this movie? My only complaint is that it may be over-shortened to make the movie.
