Wow! My heart broke and melted at the same time at this fantastic phenomenon. This is such a powerful film that I absolutely loved from start to finish. I almost cried at how beautiful this film is and how much I love it. I am a big follower of autism and the meaning of what it is was told in the best way. I know someone very close who suffers from it. I love films involving a man/woman with a dis... read more

A big classic from the 80's... Once again, not bad at all and quite entertaining and Dustin Hoffman gives a great perfomance but it gives the idea that to a have an handicapt relatives is like a wall in the park... And it is so irritating that everytime Hollywood makes a picture about an autist,it has to be some kind of genius... Of course, some autists are really gifted but just as much as non-au... read more

Un apelicula increible donde dustin hoffman hace una actuación genial y tom cruise redescubre que los orgullos no ellvna para tanto, de esos films donde la historia deja un sin sabor, debido al drama y al choque de sentimientos, en donde prevalece los buenos sentimientos y el humor fino

"12.6. Nuori Tom Cruise virnuilee ja yrittää samalla viedä autistin rahat, mutta viime hetkellä opitaan tärkeitä asioita elämästä. Siitä huolimatta tämä oli hyvä."

My movie year 2013 (358 movies items)

"27.5. (Kirjasto-DVD) Hieman tympeänä ja tasapaksuna alkava komedia paranee huomattavasti loppua kohden. Vaikka elokuvassa opitaan elämästä ja sen tärkeimmistä asioista, se käy melko arkisesti eikä supervaahterasiirappityyliin. Loppuratkaisu olisi voitu kirjoittaa paljon huonommaksi. Heikoin lenkki on aina yhtä ärsyttävä Tom Cruise, joka sopii itsekeskeisen *vahva kirosana* rooliinsa kuin nakutettu, muttei pärjää enää millään tämän hahmon kehittyessä. Dustin Hoffmanin main"

Greatest Film Tearjerking Moments Q - Z (51 movies items)

"The emotional farewell scenes between idiot savant autistic Raymond Babbitt (Dustin Hoffman) and his slick, car-dealing brother Charlie ("main man") (Tom Cruise) after a memorable cross-country road trip together; they touch heads together (Charlie: "I like having you for my brother" Raymond: "I'm an excellent driver") and then the camera slowly zooms in - also their parting after a short discussion at the Amtrak train station: (Charlie: "I'll see you soon." Raymond: "Yeah, One for bad, two for "

Films and the critics who hate them (741 movies items)

"Rain Man's restraint is, finally, rather like Raymond's gabble. It discourages connections, keeping you out instead of drawing you in. - Richard Schickel, TIME Magazine It's end effect depends largely on one's susceptibility to the sight of an actor acting nonstop and extremely well, but to no particularly urgent dramatic purpose. - Vincent Canby, New York Times Neither Levinson nor Hoffman was able to penetrate the mystery of their subject. - Hal Hinson, Washington Post"
