Disturbing yet enthralling
Boring, over-political, tech fuzed mess
Mostly, the movie is committed to the value of a good time.

View MoreMovie Review: "Rain Man" (1988)Winning four Academy-Awards on March 29th 1989 including "Best Picture" and "Best Director" in favor for Barry Levinson, who directs Tom Cruise and Dustin Hoffman as unlikely brothers. One outgoing, extroverted, premium-car-trading as vanity-indulging Charlie and the other introverted, senior mental institution-living, handicapped-by-autism character of Raymond due to developmental disorder in social interaction as communication, when supporting actress Valeria Golino, at age 22, keeps the two brother sticking together, when "Rain Man" turns from a drama into a road-movie with twisting as suspenseful surprises from scene to scene.Director Barry Levinson, at age 45, makes sure to avoid any sentimental moments in an nevertheless emotional storyline written by Barry Morrow and Ronald Bass, directing Tom Cruise into precise beat work in first reception in an already seven-year-spanning career in acting, while the Hollywood star marks one major hit "Top Gun" (1986) directed by Tony Scott (1944-2012) his own at age 25, when Dustin Hoffman creates his own scene-ruling microcosm without much intervention by the director, retrieving his sophisticated insights from over twenty years in acting and seemingly well-researched effort on a birth-giving state of existence.The 125-Minute-Editorial comes along in interweaving scenes of well-designed due to great location choices and authentic costume design, cinematography by John Seale delivers already with the very first shot of sports-cars getting craned through mid-air under composer Hans Zimmer core-striking soundtrack created to let "Rain Man" be an instant classic of modern cinema much to the liking of producing Mark Johnson, who receives the Oscar at the ceremony in its 61st edition, a fulminate rounded industrial recognition, giving to a wonderfully-humane movie open for revisits.Copyright 2018 Cinemajesty Entertainments LLC
View Morethe movie is full of yelling.. all the time Tom cruise was arguing with his brother and that mad man repeating an old unfunny joke "who was on first base." WTF!! i just wonder how people could handle to watch 2 hours of tow brothers fighting and arguing and one of them so mean that he was keeping offend his lame brother.
View MoreTrailer: Terrible Movie: AmazingThe trailer is so bad, that I almost didn't want to watch it. I am 12, so I recently just watched it about a month or two ago. It is one of Tom Cruise's best films. It also won the Oscar for best picture. And it deserved it. It's about a man named Charlie Babbit, who goes on a road trip across America, with his brother he never knew he had. Although, his brother has autism.
View MoreNearly 30 years ago, Rain Man came out and became a sleeper hit at the box office and won the Oscar for best picture. It was a game changer at the box office, with the movie dealing with autism, loneliness, and a getaway. Dustin Hoffman is great as the retarded character while Tom Cruise is his best friend. The cinematography is great, the soundtrack by Hans Zimmer (his first) amazing, and the acting is legendary. My dad grew up watching this movie on VHS and i finally watched it on bluray since i'm old enough to see this movie. It's not for kids since it's rated R.
