Movie Reviews of The Vanishing
Movie Review: In the blink of an eye.
Summary: 3 Stars
The Vanishing starring Jeff Bridges, Sandra Bullock, and Kiefer Sutherland was a much ignored film from 1993. Bullock wasn't a household name yet and Sutherland was just starting to show his acting chops. I like Sutherland in this film, his performance is haunting and intense. I think this film is based on another film, parts of this film are slow and tepid but great acting from the cast and interesting storyline, give this sleeper of a thriller a chance.Movie Review: Nice movie
Summary: 3 Stars
Excellent movie for those "Jack Bauer" 24 fans. The movie was good and the ending surprised.
Movie Review: Tepid Thriller
Summary: 2 Stars
This is a maddening film because it starts out promisingly but quickly dissipates in the second half to typical Hollywood schlock thriller. For the first hour or so the film was reminiscent of Hitchcock's work. Superb performances were on display particularly by Nancy Travis. Oddly, the worst performance on hand is by Jeff Bridges who previously I never thought capable of bad work. He affects some implacable accent that makes you scratch your head and not think him menacing. Pacific Northwest maybe? Whatever, this flick typifies mediocrity and elicits ennui instead of genuine terror.Movie Review: Boring Ending....And Not A Surprise
Summary: 2 Stars
This American version of the movie too predictable. Doesn't fit the title of "suspense." If you want a TRUE thriller, buy the Dutch version of this movie! That version is captioned, but you are so taken in by the storyline, you won't even realize it. The American version of "The Vanishing" was softened up for American audiences.....the Dutch version is not, and the ending is even more shocking!Movie Review: Jeff Bridges Intolerable
Summary: 2 Stars
The movie is not bad until Jeff Bridges shows up about half way through. And I think even I could have done his post fist fight make-up better. The obvious cotton roll stuck in his upper lip to indicate swelling was almost as annoying as his stupidly written character (not his fault) and his complete inability to play a menacing super creep.
