Movie Reviews of The War
Movie Review: Flawed, but still one of my favorites
Summary: 5 Stars
When I first saw this movie, I remember thinking Elijah Wood is one of the most amazing actors of the times. Even at his age, he was almost upstaging Kevin Costner. I was blown away at his natural talent, and I loved watching him. He has a great way of showing his emotion through his eyes.Although the movie sometimes is overwritten and wordy, for me it never takes away how wonderful it is to watch. The cast does an amazing job with the sometimes too corny script and makes it all work. Definitely one of my all time favorite movies. If you're just in it to watch a good movie, and not get too critical, you're going to adore it. I gave it 5 stars, even though I said it was flawed, because the movie it self makes up for whatever silly flaws were in the script and directing. The actors are amazing, and do a wonderful job with what is given to them
Movie Review: They Win this War...
Summary: 5 Stars
This is the most beautiful and heartbreaking movie I haveever seen. Elijah Wood and Lexi Randall and all the kids
in the film are amazing, and Kevin Costner gives a perfect
performance with his physical and emotional transformation
as Stephen Simmons. He touchingly elicits all of the reality
of the tragedy in the treatment of Vietnam Veterans, and
his shellshocked, understated portrayal forces the viewer
to step back and take notice. One of Kevin's best acting
pieces, next to A Perfect World, The Untouchables, For the
Love of the Game, and Field of Dreams. A great movie with
great performances.
Movie Review: An Entertaining Movie With A Positive Message
Summary: 5 Stars
The War is an exceptionally acted beautiful movie with a message that is rarely sent through movies in this day and age. In a time when most movies make the statement that the only way to deal with problems is to fight them, The War tells us that there is another way which may be a little harder but gets more results in the end. And it does it in a beautiful and entertaining way. I enjoyed everything about this movie from the actors chosen to portray the characters to the masterful direction of the story. EVERYtime I watch this movie I get teary eyed but I always go away from it feeling good. I love this movie.Movie Review: Love it! Love it!
Summary: 5 Stars
I loved this movie SOOOOOOOO much! It was soooo sad when Stu's dad died, though! I am desperately trying to call him Stu because Elijah Wood is my favorite actor EVER!!!! I've taped the movie before I came here(to Amazon)but I cant help but talk bout this movie. Stu is able to cope with problems and manages to still be a kid as well. His adorable in this movie though I dont really know why they call it the War. It wasn't the main idea and it was the aftermath of the war but I still Review: SOME THINGS ARE WORTH FIGHTING FOR!!!!Summary: 5 Stars This is one of my all-time favorite movies. I have watched it repeated times and I love it more each time I see it. This is a wonderful movie with great performances. Kevin Kostner is wonderful as the "perfect" father and Elijah Wood is great as his son. We come to learn from this movie about life values. We come to know that love is important and that sometimes things are worth fighting for. I recommend this movie to everyone. You will not forget it once you see it!!
