Movie Reviews of The Morning After
Movie Review: Two Star's Removed for flippent stupid Racial Insensity to blacks, jews, italians you name it!
Summary: 3 Stars
Given I love only three Jane Fonda Movies, Barbarella, China Syndrome and now The Morning After, this one seems the best of the three. Well sort of. Barbarella can not be beat when you are fater some weird over the top fun. Few movies can match Barbarella in its over the top goofyness. China Syndrome was well acted and pretty good all around. The Morning After has a "Funky 70's" burn out sort of feel to it. I like Morning after because I started out hating both characters and ended up so happy they both got together.
I like in this movie the sappy icky sweet ending one other reviewer seems to dislike. I like a movie that ends happily so you can imaging the two characters you have spent an hour investing in leave you with a hollywood happy ending pay off. The movies I hate are those that build the viewer up to hoping two partners or partner and side kick start building a life together. I hate the so called sophisticated endings more common in the newer generation of movies where the credits start rolling and the silly movie seems to have no resolution. Whats worse is many movies in so stupidly now its makes all the time you spend watching seem wasted.
This movie has a predictable ending but thats what makes it awesome to me. This movie was done right. I saw The Morning After on Chiller which repeats its movies to death so if you want to preview Morning After watch Chiller its bound to be on a couple dozen times in the near future.
Summary of The Morning After
Who's the guy lying next to her? How did they meet? All Alex knows is that he's as dead as a toe-tagged John Doe. "He had a heart attack?" Alex's ex asks over the phone. "From a knife in the chest," she retorts. Two-time Academy Award winner Jane Fonda earned her seventh Oscar nomination* as Alex, an alcoholic has-been actress cast in the real-life role of Suspect #1. Panicked at facing the police, Alex runs for it - right into the battered convertible of a washed-up former cop (Jeff Bridges). Their uneasy alliance draws them nearer each other and closer to the startling truth behind the murder. Director Sidney Lumet (The Verdict) draws strong performances from his leads and an ensemble that includes Raul Julia and Kathy Bates. The murder happened the night before. But the real mystery begins The Morning After.DVD Features:
