Movie Reviews of Return to Innocence

Movie Review: very strange
Summary: 2 Stars

Though well acted, well directed, somehow it misses something. I don't agree with the message that protecting the true pedophile was a good thing, just because it would have hurt his widow. I also would like to know why Amazon lists this among "gay" movies, this isn't a gay movie. Does Amazon think gay people are interested in pedophilic movies? Come on, Amazon, this isn't a gay film.

Movie Review: Run, Don't Walk, from this tepid tale
Summary: 1 Stars

I couldn't believe I was watching the same movie about which others had raved - and still don't. Where to begin? Acting: the range is from amateur to abysmal. Plot - pure formula. Music - grating. Dialogue: stilted, sophomoric, sybaritic. Characters: flat, unbelievable, laughable. Color - only the very last frame. Film Noir? You betcha - with emphasis on noir - some scenes are so poorly lit you can hardly see the secondary characters. Editing? None. Direction? out to lunch. Story: barely-teen boy sexually abused under dear Mommy's tutelage goes into care, hero doctor tries to help, doctor's assistant is seduced by boy, hero finds out, gives assistant 24 hours to tell wife before exposure, assistant has car wreck and dies in hospital while boy watches, boy blames hero, accuses him of rape, case goes to trial Perry Mason would find laughably pathetic, hero is vindicated when boy recants, they end up hugging and all is beauty and light. Your imagination will be a much better experience than the movie. There - now you won't have to shell out your hard-earned money for this tripe, and can put something worthy on your shelf. Doubt me? Rent, don't buy. If you then decide to buy it, mea culpa - but it will only be money down the drain.

Movie Review: Wish there was a lower rating I could give
Summary: 1 Stars

Do NOT waste your money on this! The movie is super boring, acting sucks, film quality very poor. Before buying it I had read how it looked "documentary style." Not like any documentaries I've ever seen! Even the ones done with basic camcorders have more film appeal than this movie.

It really is a shame because a LOT more could've been done with this theme.

Summary: 1 Stars

don't be suckered by the Bruce webber picture on the cover
its better than the film
the film is elementary at best - looks like it was filmed for a high school class.
If you get off on dialog then buy it
otherwise this is a stinker

stay away and save your money


Movie Review: Misleading reviews
Summary: 1 Stars

Four stars for this movie is quite a stretch. Although the subject matter was interesting, the acting was atrocious, the music melodramatic; in general, a really bad movie.
