Movie Reviews of The Big White
Movie Review: Where was this movie when it came out??
Summary: 5 Stars
I just recently got to see this film and it got me wondering.....in a year when the only really good films were foreign, where was this little gem???
Dark enough to give chills in some areas, light enough to make you laugh and even some suspense thrown in, as your never quite sure how far things will go.
Robin Williams is always great....he is an amazing actor, no matter how cliche he may seem. He can do comedy, he can do drama....this movie falls in the black dramady catagory of which he was made for (see Death To Smootchy!).
Excellant casting in this one, a great story that takes some turns that you don't expect, and of course some you know are going to happen and can't be helped. Very entertaining the whole way through. Woody is a scary man when he wants to be, and he comes off 10x scarier than anything he's played before (he was really an anti-hero in NBK), he is straight up villian in this movie and it works very well for the emotion of the story.
Giavanni is a strange actor, and im never really sure about him, as half of his movies are really good (see Boiler Room) and others really fall flat. He is pretty good in this one as a majorly obsesive insurance investigator....the first scene with him in it really spells out his character perfectly.
All in all, i would highly recommend this film, and again i ask.....where was this one when it came out almost 2 years ago??
