Movie Reviews of The Fisher King

Movie Review: A WONDERFUL MIX OF INDIE AND HOLLYWOOD!
Summary: 5 Stars

'The Fisher King' is one of those films that falls under the either love it or hate it category. I personally can't see why anyone would not like this film! Jeff Bridges, Robin Williams, Mercedes Ruehl, Amanda Plummer and Michael Jeter give fantastic performances in this quirky, original, dramedy with elements of fantasy thrown in for good measure! It's a wonderful ride that takes the viewer from fall on the floor laughter to gut wrenching tragity the next and it's totally engrossing from start to finish.

If you like this film, you might want to give 'Nurse Betty' a try, it's got a similar quality, although a very different story.

Movie Review: Fantastic Movie
Summary: 5 Stars

Jeff Bridges and Robin Williams are exceptional in this movie of tragedy and forgiveness. Both bring such suffering and passion to their characters that you empathize with them throughout the movie. Mercedes Ruehl and Amanda Plummer provide terrific supporting roles as the love interests of Jeff Bridges and Robin Williams.

The visuals that Terri Gilliam brings to this movie are superbly done in typical Gilliam style.

I recommend this movie to anyone interested in an outstanding story with equally outstanding acting.

Movie Review: A fine film
Summary: 5 Stars

This is a wonderful film, with Robin Williams putting in what I consider his finest performance. It is also quite a different film - the sets are almost surreal, while showing the plight of homeless people in a stark and uncompromising light. But most of all it is a film that will make you laugh, and make you cry, and I feel you can never want more from entertainment than that. Don't pass it by - it is truly a wonderful film about how you can find salvation in the most unlikely of places.

Movie Review: Realizing a great dramatic actor.
Summary: 5 Stars

I was never overly impressed with his comedic career, it was OK but nothing great. This was the movie that I realized, Robin Williams is a great dramatic actor. His performance in Dead Poets Society was great, and when this followed it up, I was convinced. The interaction between Jeff Bridges and himself was absolutely wonderful. The characters were so believable and you felt for every one of them. It was such a magical movie! To this day it is still one of my favorites.

Movie Review: there are so many things to love about this movie
Summary: 5 Stars

this is one of my all time favorites, for so many reasons. Robin Williams gives an amazing performance. Mercedes Ruehl has many of the best lines in the film-an awesome actress. i could watch Michael Jeter singing to Amanda Plummer a million times and never grow tired of it-he steals the whole movie with this one scene! so much of the dialogue is touchingly funny and sweet.i also love the music used in the movie.this is a great film,with great performances; i love it.
