An Exercise In Nonsense
A brilliant film that helped define a genre
True to its essence, the characters remain on the same line and manage to entertain the viewer, each highlighting their own distinctive qualities or touches.
View MoreIt really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.
View MoreI admired all the characters in this movie. Love the music and the path of a moment in life.After reading all the comments I see no one hit the mark. If we could only get away from all this nonsense that means so little we would get the point of the movie.That point is simple. THINK of where we as humans are and figure out how to make it better.
View MoreOn top of that... plot holes you can drive trucks through. Here is 'thought provoking'... one 10-star reviewer's words of wisdom are: all people have value and make a difference. I am guessing that reviewer's 'list' includes such as Mother Theresa, George Bush (W), the Koch brothers and Shirley Temple. To be 'Fair and Balanced' one should add to that list such as Hitler, Ted Bundy, Putin and Stalin. Most of these nice fellows 'had value and made a difference' to their followers.And how many fellow Americans feel they have little or no value and make little or no difference since they can not support and feed their families on minimum wage and because so many fellow citizens wish to strip them of the first ever access to medical care they have ever enjoyed in their adult lives.If you are up for a stealth, right wing, religious/political agenda film this one's for YOU!
View MoreThis movie has a great message that all people have value and make a difference. Our choices dictate what type of affect we have on the people with whom we come in contact. I appreciated the surprises and the emotional pull this story had on me. John Schneider has been one of my favorite actors since the 70's and he continues to create products that are entertaining and powerful. He even has a scene where he showcases his singing/musical skills. I was not familiar with the other actors, but feel it was full of great performances. If you are looking for a movie that leaves you thinking and realizing you can make a difference in people's lives; I recommend this film wholeheartedly.
View MoreDoonby is one of the best films I've seen. Wow! I loved it sooo much. I was shocked the first time seeing it. The whole movie kept me at the edge of my seat. The ending had a powerful message that really made me think about the value of life and how every life is important. the movie was well written and Directed by brilliant and Amazing Director Peter Mackenzie. Great performance from the entire cast. Jenn Gotzons performance as Laura Reaper was her best performance yet. She showed soo much emotional depth to her character and the chemistry between jenns character and John schneiders was fantastic! Jenn did a fantastic job playing a wild party Girl. the ending scene between Sam Doonby And Laura Reaper was extremely powerful. you could feel the emotion between the two especially when she breaks his Guitar. Her performance as a wild part Girl was sooo Amazing. I thought the movie had a great story with a surprise twist at the end that I never expected.. Jenn and John Schneider did a superb Job. The ending had a huge Impact on my life and is one of the best pro life films that I've seen. I highly recommend this Movie. It is a must see. It will change a persons perspective on life and make people think about the choices they Make.
