Movie Reviews of Shining Through
Movie Review: A Perfect Movie
Summary: 5 Stars
I was thrilled to be able to order Shining Through via Amazon.com. Living in a rural community it is often difficult to find everything you want.
I saw this movie years ago when it was first released. It was thrilling, had lots of action and a wonderful story line. It was movie I never forgot.
As soon as I recieved it I watched it -with hankie in hand. From the very beginning to the end I was mesmerized. Both actors gave outstanding perfomances. It is a great love story, a great mystery with lots of non- stop action. And best of a real thriller.
I have watched this movie several times and showed it to my friends. Everyone has enjoyed it - even those who didn't think they would.In my opinion this is a perfect movie and a definate keeper in my library.
Rhett Butler and Scarlett O'Hara have nothing on this couple!!!!
Movie Review: Far-fetched yes, but definitely entertaining
Summary: 5 Stars
I love Shining Through, and 13 years later, it still holds up as a sweeping romantic thriller, and one of Melanie Griffith's last great roles on film.
It's hard to believe this film won the Razzie for Worst Film and Worst Actress in 1992, when there were several bad films that year (co-star Michael Douglas also starred in the awful Basic Instinct, which was much more deserving of a Razzie). But I would ignore the negative criticisms of the film and seek out this underrated gem, finally out on DVD.
It looks stunning, and I credit Fox for giving us an excellent transfer. The widescreen looks fabulous and for $10, this is no cheap pan-and-scan write-off.
The film has everything: romance, suspence, action, comedy, drama, and the production values, writing, acting, and direction are all top notch.
Movie Review: If you love spy/love stories, Shining Through is for you....
Summary: 5 Stars
Shining Through was one of the best espionage stories I have ever seen. It is a accurate to the history, costumes, speech, and setting. The main characters played by Michael Douglas and Melanie Griffith had an chemistry that matched those of 1930 black and white espionage movies. I can watch this film over and over and never get tired of seeing it. In my opinion, it was Melanie Griffth and Michael Douglas's best perfoamce ever. I waited 10 years for this movie to be released on DVD. Buy it...you will not be disappointed. The book by Susan Issacs was equally fantasic to read. The movie surpassed the read which is unusal.Movie Review: AT LONG LAST - FOUND GREAT WWII MOVIE
Summary: 5 Stars
I SAW THIS MOVIE YEARS AGO IN THE WEE HOURS ON HBO. THEY NEVER SHOWS IT IN PRIME TIME AND IT NEVER APPEAR AT MY LOCAL MOVIE RENTALS. I HAD BEGUN TO THINK I HAD "DREAMED" THE MOVIE. I HAVE BEEN ON THE LOOK OUT FOR IT FOR A LONG TIME. BEING NEW TO AMAZON, WHEN I SAW MOVIES I KNEW I WAS GOING TO HAVE TO SEE IF THERE WAS A "SHINING THROUGH" MOVIE. THERE WAS AND WAS I HAPPY. I DO BELIEVE THAT PRICE WOULD NOT HAVE BEEN AN ISSUE BUT I FOUND A NEW COPY AND THE GREATEST PRICE. BEING A WWII "NUT" AND HAVING A LIBRARY OF WWII MOVIE, THIS FITS RIGHT IN. I,ALSO ,CHOSE THE ONE SHIPPED FROM NC AND GOT IT RIGHT AWAY.Movie Review: Spellbound love and mystery story
Summary: 5 Stars
My husband and I first viewed Shining Through on television. After it was finished, I realized I had been holding my hand in a fixed position too long and also breathing shallow breaths. We decided to go to our favorite store, Amazon, and see if we could purchase it because it was not a recent movie. As always, we were successful. We have started a DVD library so we can view good selections. Excellant acting, surpise ending which was uplifting. Wonderful mystery with lots of conflict. Melanie Griffith was great. Made Michael Dourglas a favorite of mine. We highly recommend this viewing.
