Movie Reviews of The Limey

Movie Review: a critique of the 60's and a tribute to films of the 70's
Summary: 5 Stars

The Limey is a great ride with great performances and crackling direction. However the best part of this DVD, by far, is the full length commentary by Steven Soderbergh and Lem Dobbs, the screenwriter. The two of them snipe at each other the whole way through as Dobbs expresses his frustration with the way his script was filmed and Soderbergh reacts with a mixture of defensiveness and humor. Watch the movie and then watch the commentary for a great insight into the creative tension between director and screenwriter.

Movie Review: Excellent DVD
Summary: 5 Stars

This is an excellent DVD. The picture quality and sound is well above average. Interesting way of story telling with flashbacks and flashforwards. Difficult to understand the accent at times, but you can just click on the "Subtitles" button. If you get the DVD version pay attention to the special features. Finally after 2 years of DVD usage, someone took time to explain anamorphic, versus letter box formats. I did enjoy this DVD very much.

Movie Review: Clever, sharp, introspective
Summary: 5 Stars

I really enjoyed this movie, and had no difficulty with the non-linear storyline. The whole thing is worth it for the one scene where Terence Stamp's character gets up off the pavement after being beaten up and goes back into the building like a heat seeking missile. It was an unexpected coda to the previous scene and actually provoked an adrenalin response while I watched it. How many movies do that anymore?

Movie Review: Terrance is lookin good
Summary: 5 Stars

The picture is good in the DVD, especially the flashback scenes and night scenes.Terrance stamp can really put you in the feelin of this film. If you like the plot of revenge but not so much the style of this movie I reccomend "Payback". Note:Payback is alot more violent than the Limey.

Movie Review: I loved this film
Summary: 5 Stars

I bought this cheap off amazon or ebay and was very happy to see it. I wish I had seen it on the big screen but those are days gone by. Peter Fonda was good in this movie as was the whole cast. Terence Stamp is outstanding and I like the way he talks. This movie plesantly suprised me.
