I admit, it was a long drawn out movie, but I haven't seen one that touched me in so long like this one did. It was seriously depressing and sad. I know how it feels to have everything fall apart on you and your mother breathing down your back about everything you want to do. Natalie (ann) played this character so well, I cried almost the entire time. The look on her face was just so sad, it tore me apart. I wouldn't recommend this movie to anyone who's never had it all fall apart or can't stand to watch a slow movie. I see all these people saying how horrible it was (yeah, everyone does have their own opinions) but I have to disagree completely. I intend to buy this movie.

For being a horror-loving maniac, I hate to say I had not seen either of the Hellraiser movies until recently. I was born in 84, so I definitely had time to catch this one. My mother suggested I rent the first movie one night b/c I was searching for a bloody, scary, sickening movie...yes, I love those the best. So I picked it up...and, suffice to say, I thought was good and went and got part II, III, and IV. I should say, no movie I have seen has had such gore...well, besides brief moments in EVENT HORIZON (my fav movie of all time...maybe) Doug Bradley makes Pinhead almost loveable. For me at least. I find I hate him at points, but love him at others...maybe it's my fascination with the underworld. He has a unique look, as well as the other cenobytes. Out of the series (haven't seen part V yet....still on the one-night shelves) this one (III) is most definitely my favorite. The humor is great. Pinhead is in it enough to satisfy me...whereas he was not in the previous ones. Pinhead makes even the ugliest depths of hell look beautiful. Of course, being a gore and hell fanatic...maybe it's just myself. I would love to meet Clive and Doug and see how it really was to make these films. To me, they are brilliant and amazing. Most definitely good horror films. This one, being the best. :-)

I am a rabid Carrey fan. I think he is one of the funniest, brilliant actors around, but man! This movie is funny to a certain extent and then you get worn out on how far it goes. It becomes boring half way into it. I saw this in theaters and my friend and I were dumbfounded as we left. It's a good movie for laughs, but don't expect much. Keep an open mind, too or else you'll be screaming for it to stop. Not Carrey's worst role, which is that of "The Truman Show", but I'd say it falls right behind it.

I've seen most people rented this movie b/c of Kevin Spacey...truthfully, I rented it b/c of Gary Sinise. I've seen a lot of his stuff, and only one turned out to be a dud-Mission To Mars. I went to get Of Mice And Men and saw him on the cover of this movie and immediately grabbed it. This is one movie that kept me saying "What's gonna happen!?" "Who IS this guy?!" and random things to that nature. I think the plot is amazing. It took the second time watching it for me to really grasp what went wrong in the beginning. It has just the right amount of comedy relief as well. I think everyone has a 'great!' role and acts in it well! Dillon and Dunaway could have been more 'convincing' but all around, wonderful! I plan on buying this movie!

Okay, just to get the major disappointment out, I was expecting a thriller/action type movie, not a CHICK FLICK! Don't get me wrong I like chick flicks *runaway bride being a very good new one* but OH MY GOD how this one sucked. I was expecting to be blown away with effects and good plots and acting. Come on, Tim Robbins and Gary Sinise!?! I would like to know what the hell happened. Most horrible acting I've seen in a while! The only enjoyable part was the beginning (with the big dirt tunnel) It went completely downhill after. I wouldn't read the next part if u haven't seen it-but I was sooooo remotely disappointed when Robbins died!! And how BAD was that acting. "oh. no! boo hoo! my husband is dead!" Completely cheesy! I LOVE Gary Sinise and I do not know what possessed him to go forward with this movie. He's been in two of the greatest movies-Forest Gump and Apollo 13 and did such great jobs in BOTH! He was the only reason I stayed and finished Mission To Mars. It's not the worst film I have ever seen, and if u know what to expect, u may enjoy it...but I did not. I wanted my money back afterwards. If I hadn't have had 2 hours of Gary Sinise I would have gone and demanded it back. Even though his acting is horrible, he's still good lookin to me! And that's such a sad excuse to watch a movie. Wait for this to hit the 2.50$ for 5 nights at video stores!!!

This movie was nothing special to me. I heard such great reviews about it, and how it was "Scary!" "You'll Be Thinking About It For Days!!"....uh, no! I left the theatre like "That was not very good." I mean, I never knew what the end was gonna end like, but I was never scared the whole time. I didn't jump once. I didn't think about it, except how disappointed I was, days after. It doesn't suck, don't get me wrong, but it is not scary at all.

The acting is wonderful, might I say. Haley is such a great actor. I've seen him in movies before and how good he was, but this was a major boost in his career! He had me crying when he explained about 'grandma's pin' in the car after the accident happened. Bruce also has a great role, too. I'm usually expecting him to be a badass/tough guy and it was great to see him caring and more down to earth in this film.

Maybe I need to see this film again. Blair Witch was better the second time, maybe this one falls in as well. Blair Witch had me scared for days!! I even had to go camping in Blairville Georgia 3 days later! Anyways, I don't think it was the best film of 1999 by far, but definitely worth watching. I also think I was expecting more than it was, and it led to disappointment. I'm not dyeing to see it again, but I would sit down and watch it if a friend rented it one night at a sleepover.

Well, i must say, i did think this movie would have been better than it was. But, overall it was still good. When I was 12 I had a huge crush on Devon Sawa (anton) so it was really cool seeing him in another movie. I think this movie is really funny. Maybe it's because I have a wide sense of humor. The ending is just kind of stupid (the whole try and rescue thing) But I think the actors were great. I like the fact that they were all Slackers and pot-heads. Kinda reminds me of my friends and myself. Well, if u happen to have some free time I recommend this movie..if ur a real hard critic who wants an academy award performance movie...dont watch this. It was not made for you.

Okay. I went to see this movie b/c I thought it looked VERY spooky and not like BOO! Scared ya type movie, but a mind bender. I, personally, preferred THE HAUNTING (1999) Im not saying this movie wasnt good, but everything about it was predictable...except what happened to Mr Willis in the end. That was the only thing I never caught on to. But, one thing, this movie had no scares. Lots of people in the theater (sold out show) gasped and screamed a lot, but I looked around like "And what have you people been watching? that was so not scarey" but, we're all different. im sure there was someone in there like me wondering what was so scarey. Of course, I was sitting by this old lady who screamed every 5 minutes, which wasnt pleasurable. But if u want to see a movie for it's twists and confusion...this is one. NOT for anyone who thinks it's scarey, b/c to me, it just wasnt scarey in the least bit way. My toaster oven has more fright. But this was definetly a wonderful movie. I give it a 10/10 for twists and originality. a 1/10 for scariness.

Okay..I dont understand all you who say it sucks. We all have different opinions, but have you "suck sayers" ever heard of KARMA?? Thats what this movie is based upon. Karma is what goes around comes around type stuff. if u have bad karma, bad things happen, good=good. (u get the point) So what if it's gory and kinda psychotic. It's what we like to call a MORBID COMEDY. I thought it was hilarious, and utterly disgusting. It seems no matter what happens, everything gets screwed up. Everyone got what they deserved, well except the dog. If u dont like sick movies...like totally and completely chaotic movies, DONT see this. If u do, I highly recommend this movie.

Well, I saw this movie a while ago...twice. I believed we got ripped-off the second time b/c the movie wasnt in Surround Sound, and let me tell you, our theaters here suck! My computer speakers work better than most of our theater speakers. Anyhow, the first time I saw it in SS and I was so scared at the end, i was shaking. Not like "BOOO!" "OMG!" scared, mentally scared. I love this movie, and mainly b/c of two things, it isnt gory and bloody yet a mind twister (for those who are intelligent enough to see this), and Mr Neeson is OH LA LA sexy! I dont care if he IS 47. He has got it going on, his smile is just too gorgeous. Okay, back to the movie though, It isnt all about BOO! scares...mainly a mind torture chamber. For those who want blood and gore, I dont recommend, but if u like mind thinkers...see this one. The ending may be a bit strange, but all is good. The effects are killer awesome, and the acting is major perfect. Kinda has a bit of everyone in it. but there is one thing id like to know...What was the deal with the car when they were trying to run the gate down?? The gas leak, sparks, and all(if uve seen it, you'll know what i mean)...and at the end, if u noticed..there was a big enough hole to escape...kinda confusing, but over-all it was a major mind bender.

I have just finished watching GO. I love this movie. Someone remarked that they didnt like the fact everyone was stupid-like that they could understand maybe one dumb person. But, in real life, not everyone is smart. Most of us are wild and make a lot mistakes. And even smart people get themselves in deep over their head. And some of us just get dragged in. I think this movie reflects more of what life is really like. Just full of bad decisions and problems. All the actors were GREAT! As for Mr. Askew, I hope to see him in many more films. I noticed he wasnt in many other films, but I think this movie gave him a boost. And the fact Scott and Jay portray gay guys is just too much. This movie had me laughing and on the edge of my seat the whole time. This is a movie a think a lot more, than less, people can relate to and enjoy it.

First of all, I was never a die-hard Star Wars fan. That is my older brother. But I went to my grandma's house for about a week on vacation and my mum and I HAD to get away from her, so we went and saw this movie. I must say, I really liked it. It has some major flaws, but I believe the effects make up for it. I really didnt much like Jar-Jar..he's cute and all, but I really wish I knew what he was saying. He shouldnt have had such a dumb accent. The aliens that spoke english gave me a headache. Their lips werent moving in anyway what-so-ever to what I ours might. I had to look away when they talked to understand. I think Mr. Neeson is a MAJOR BABE...who cares if he's 47? He's definetly hot! ANd Mr McGregor...well what can I say, he's a major hottie, too. Maybe they didnt have the perfect roles, but I think the movie is so awesome. I would recommend all SW fans to see it, and even those who arent. It has the best effects I have ever seen. You'll see past Mr Jar jar and the weird-o aliens.

Well, I must say this wasnt a work of art. Rather that, it practically stunk. If sexy Banderas hadnt been in it, Im afraid I would have turned it off and left. My friend and I have a thing for Mr Banderas, so we rented it. We pretty much talked about other things when he wasnt pictured. I agree with the anonymous person who said a goof by mr director dude gave it away immediately. I will never figure out why he did such a thing. But I must admit, the end, well it was definetly NOT what I expected. I was kinda dissapointed about it though. Seemed cheesy and lame. But if u like Banderas, rent it, fast-forward through any part he is not in...it will save your sanity. Otherwise...I wouldnt recommend this to anyone.

I rented this movie tonight because I hadnt seen it since like 1995 and I still cried. This movie is one that will last forever. I think it's a Masterpiece. I has many characteristics of real life and how cruel we can be towards those who are different from us. Edward is one of the few characters you love and love even more after 100 times of watching it. I think this is Tim Burton's best film. It is heart-wrenching and pain-staking. It's definetly one movie that will never get old in my eyes. There are no special effects that will wear off or look fake (okay, besides the mountain scene) with age. The sadest part to me was when his creator gave him the hands and died, and the hands were ruined. Breaks me all up inside to watch that part. One of the best love stories I have ever seen, and I watch a ton of movies. This movie carries every emotion and makes you feel them everytime. And it isnt like most love stories, end all perfect. It has a better twist to it, even if it makes me cry everytime. I would suggest this movie to anyone. It's just totally wonderful. I dont know what else to say.

I saw this movie expecting it to be really good. To my surprise, it turned out BETTER than I thought. My mum thought it would be dumb, but she loved it, too. I think the actors were good, maybe not "saving private ryan" good, but I liked it. I really like Banderas, and he was exceptionally good, to me, in this. not a movie for everyone, though. I am going to see it again this weekend. :) And dont listen to anyone's opinions...everyone likes different things. But I'd give it 10/10!!!

Okay. I've read almost everyone's comments, and I hate that people keep bringing up the copying part of it. Everyone copies someone else. And Sphere can AFTER Event Horizon. I think everything about the movie was great. First movie I have ever covered my face b/c something was so gross. And the fact the plot was something impossible is why they call it science-fiction. But the concept that they can travel faster than light to me is just awesome. The effects in it are awesome. I dont complain about the gory-ness b/c THAT is what HORROR is suppose to be. "Scream" and "I Know What You DId Last Summer" were really stupid in my opinion. Scream, it was okay, but IKWYDLS was just totally and utterly boring to me. Im glad I didnt pay movie theatre prices to see it. I would have payed to see Event Horizon, though, and I wish I would've now. The actors are great, they do a wonderful job. The cast fits perfect. A caring captain (miller), a funny guy who keeps things down to earth (cooper), the paranoid guy (smith), a weird-science freak (weir), the baby (justin), the motherly woman (peters), and the serious woman (stark). I think this movie should get more credit than it has. I own this movie and watch it all the time. And someone said the ship looks like a toture-chamber...Makes it THAT much more better. If the ship was pink and purple and all merry-like, it wouldnt be scarey. But, not everyone likes the same thing, but I loved this movie.
