Movie Reviews of The Life of David Gale (Widescreen Edition)
Movie Review: Phenomenal Movie
Summary: 5 Stars
This was truly and exceptional movie. It's really beyond my understanding you it didn't hit the silver screen.
There will always be debates on the topic of capital punishment, and death penalties. This movie did a remarkable job protesting against capital punishment.
After all the debates on national television, and protesting out on the streets, David Gayle realized if you don't stand for something, you will definitely fall for anything. After his voice continued to be ignored, he allowed his actions to speak for his beliefs.
This is differently a "must see" film!
Movie Review: Although Alan Parker did a fine job,,,
Summary: 5 Stars
... (as usual), I haven't yet seen a movie about death penalty which have tackled the real issues : the bible inspiration being the most ludicrous (an eye for an eye, etc...), why not think about the best thing coming out from death penalty, which is NO ONE EXECUTED HAS EVER BEEN A REPEAT OFFENDER. Another GOOD REASON for death penalty is that (almost) no one ever complained about the way dogs with rabies are dealt with, so why insist on considering mad dogs standing on their hind legs are human : just remember what Konrad Lorenz said 'The missing link between ape and man is US', so, those who don't want to behave as human beings should not be regarded as such, and therefore should not benefit of any human status
. The second best thing being that anyone executed is not as much as a burden for the taxpayers as those who get board and food for 5/10/15/....years. For those who lament over the innocent victims of a mistrial they should be aware that, with over 7 billions beings plaguing the planet, those few will never be enough to ease the problems created by overpopulation (and. if they have any question about me, they should know I would be happy to be one of those judicial errors, so I wouldn't have to bear any more with their self-righteousness stupidity - sorry for the redundancy).
Movie Review: Great Social Commentary
Summary: 5 Stars
So this movie is well directed and nicely acted in, but the biting part is the social commentary that is involved here.
The plot involves the imprisonment of a college professor for murder and he is facing death row. The ironic part is that he was one of the leading anti-death penalty advocates while he was still working. Now, the problem come because he swears his innocence and wants a reported to attempt to find the true killer for him.
This is a beautifully played out story that teaches people the horrors and problems with the death penalty in America, but does not preach to us. I had nothing but good things to say after seeing this movie and it summed up a lot of my feelings in it as well.
Movie Review: Great movie!
Summary: 5 Stars
I recently saw this movie, The Life of David Gale, on TV, having never heard of it before. The critics slammed it, and I guess it was buried. I'm just a movie watcher, so what would I know compared to a "critic." I thought it was great! Kevin Spacey, Kate Winslet, and Laura Linney were terrific. I'm going to buy this just to watch it again for all those little clues that are missed the first time aroundMovie Review: Excellent!
Summary: 5 Stars
This is an amazing movie that everyone should see. I think those who reviewed this movie in a negative manner simply did not understand it.
