Movie Reviews of The Chosen
Movie Review: Great Insight Between Two Cultures
Summary: 5 Stars
A very well written and acted movie. It gave me a great insight into the Hasidim community and a thought provoking view into a very complex time in our history as is experienced between two friends from two different backgrounds.
I had viewed it in 1988 and never forgot it, and am glad that it is available in DVD format. The performances were outstanding.
I highly recommend this film.
Movie Review: Brilliant film
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a brilliant film, based on one of Chaim Potok's best books. It's intelligent and sensitive, and very well acted. I won't go into the story--other reviewers have done that. My only gripe is that it has been discontinued on DVD. I still have an old VHS of the film, which is on its last legs, and second-hand DVDs start at about $50. Surely we need more films like this rather than the Die Hard variety?Movie Review: A Surprise Classic!
Summary: 5 Stars
The Chosen is one of those rare movies that will deeply touch your heart. Robbie Benson and Rod Steiger give wonderful performances that you will want to see again and again. If you love stories that show strong and wise fathers that care for their children, this movie is for you. The climax will bring you to tears. One of the most memorable movies you will ever see!Movie Review: Powerful
Summary: 5 Stars
While I preferred the book, this is one of those rare movies that captures the essence of the book it is based on. Chaim Potok was one of my favorite authors. His stories were moving and very well written. This book communicates the core of the novel very well and I recommend it highly.Movie Review: ahhhh, yes.
Summary: 5 Stars
This movie was written with all of the feel-good kind of action that this man can muster. Robby Benson, go, go for me and eveyrone who must be subject to this kind of primordial browbashing. It throws me for a loop when I see it in action and by all means, it just makes sense.
