Movie Reviews of Venus
Movie Review: One of the Most Amazing Movies Ever
Summary: 5 Stars
I fell in love with this film immediately. It is one of the most touching and powerful films I have ever had the pleasure to watch. Other than the impeccable performance of the cast, this film offers a sense of timelessness to its viewers because it focuses upon the relationship between Jessie and Maurice, who are at opposite ends of the human life spectrum. Regardless of the age difference, they offer each other a unique type of companionship and love in the end. It is a film that is sad yet beautiful because it portrays both characters as being capable of both selflessness and selfishness in the end. It mantains its reality which is refreshing for a film of this millenium. I personally enjoyed it and it is, as I said, one of the most amazing movies I have ever seen.Movie Review: o'toole one of the greatest of all time-VENUS
Summary: 5 Stars
Peter O'Toole was wonderful in this movie....especially for those of us over 55 who still believe in life and love....and the possibilities of finding same....i hope someday he wins an oscar for his achievments...i recectly watched "Beckett" again after many years and both he and Richard Burton were "tried and true" actors with out all of the explosive and violent distractions of todays movies....i plan on watching more of the older movies now that i am old enough to appreciate them!!! For a man who is obviously frail now..he still has a wonderful sense of himself, a sexinesss, great beauty and humor...i don't care how old he is, he has class!!!Movie Review: Flawless!
Summary: 5 Stars
One of the dearest, wittiest, most beautiful films of all time. Peter O'Toole is a master, Leslie Phillips is a "find." I adored it. I wondered if I would like it because so many critics were put off by the "dirty old man" theme, but that is really insulting to elderly people. O'Toole likes the tough young girl, expelled from and shamed by her family. He awakens her to her beauty and worth; she keeps him alive. Each has a self-centered agenda, which is exactly as it should be, and keeps this exquisite film from being maudlin. Loved it to the max and recommend it to one and all.Movie Review: Quality never gets old!
Summary: 5 Stars
While not a film for everyone, Venus has enough to satisfy even the most hardened film buff. Peter O'Toole delivers a stellar performance not because of over-acting but becase of restraint. Even more importantly, he allows a young actress an opportunity to not only rvial his quality but to spar with him at a level rarely seem in modern cinema.
Many people will never bother to see Venus. It will be their loss.
Movie Review: Bravo...
Summary: 5 Stars
Wow, what a stirring masterpiece of filmmaking. The level of verisimilitude surpassed anything I have seen in recent years, if not decades. Probably going to be much more poignant to the over 40 crowd, however, the dynamic between Maurice and Jessie makes this equally as accessible to a younger crowd on a different level. I laughed, I cried, I learned...
