Movie Reviews of Stalking Laura

Movie Review: Richard Thomas is a villain you'll love to hate
Summary: 4 Stars

Laura Black (Brooke Shields) just graduated from UC Davis and got a primo job working for a defense contractor in the Silicon Valley. She unwittingly captures the attention of a fellow worker, Richard Farley (played chillingly by Richard "John Boy" Thomas), who becomes fixated on her to the point of obsession. After finally spurning his attentions, reporting him to HR, and filing a restraining order, Richard gets a slap on the wrist, resigns, then returns to the office to seek vengeance against the woman who dared to not return his affections armed to the hilt. Going on a shooting rampage that took a company hostage and left many dead in his wake, Thomas is the epitome of a cold and calculating killer. You won't look at John Boy Walton in the same way after viewing this. Or the Togo's #23 sandwich.

The story is all the more chilling since it is based on actual events which eventually led to California's stringent anti-stalking laws and a company's responsibility to its employees in creating a safe workplace.

Movie Review: Stalking Laura
Summary: 4 Stars

Stalking Laura is a great movie if what you are after is one and a half hours of quality entertainment. Take in to account that Brooke Shields in the early 90's was never going to make an outstanding movie to begin with, the storyline stays close to the orginal happenings of Richard Farley and Richard Thomas provides a freakishly good account of his character. If what you after is a thriller that requires brain power and tests human knowledge, i probably wouldn't pick this movie. But for what it is - a great movie. I thoroughly enjoyed.

Movie Review: A real thriller!!!
Summary: 4 Stars

First of all, forget about John-Boy. Richard Thomas has proven he can play every character type that spans the entire spectrum between both extremes, from John-Boy to Rich Farley. Brooke Sheilds looks a lot like the real Laura Black, and it's a good supporting cast also. The plot is a good one, and it's a movie that's not only entertaining, but also serves as a portrayal of the realities of those with an obsession. Overall, it's a great movie, but dont' let the kids watch!

Movie Review: A good movie!
