I like the storyline of this show,it attract me so much

Surprisingly incoherent and boring

It is so daring, it is so ambitious, it is so thrilling and weird and pointed and powerful. I never knew where it was going.

If you like to be scared, if you like to laugh, and if you like to learn a thing or two at the movies, this absolutely cannot be missed.

With Honors is a comedy which turned into much more by addressing the topic of human motivation. William Mastrosimone should have written a novel instead of just a screenplay and it would have been a bestseller. With Honors is one of the great screenplays ever written in that it transcends time. I expect it will eventually be a Turner Classic.What I like most about the movie is how it teaches one to put oneself into someone else's shoes. There are so many out there who are completely insensitive to what others are up against. Be it inexperience, hard heartedness, or political correctness, the fact remains our world is full of those who completely lack the ability to put themselves into someone else's shoes.Brendan Fraser does a superb job as Montgomery Kessler, a government student who genuinely cares for people. He has excellent on screen chemistry with Moira Kelly, who plays the part of student Courtney Blumenthal. It's excellent chemistry in that Courtney Blumenthal brings out the best in Montgomery Kessler. She understands the term "love" better than Kessler and hence Joe Pesci's plug for her towards the end.Patrick Dempsey does an excellent job as Everett Calloway, the school's radio talk show host while Josh Hamilton plays an antagonistic role as Jeffrey Hawks, the spoiled insensitive preppie who is by far the least spiritually developed of the group.Gore Vidal is excellent as Professor Pitkannen and is part of a priceless sequence in the movie. It's fun to examine the countenances of those sitting behind Fraser and Pesci during the scene.With Honors teaches us to not pre-judge others as time and experience on this earth may equal great wisdom. More importantly it teaches us there are more important things in life than status and achievement; namely, love and compassion for others.

I was once asked: "What is your favorite movie?" in a graduate school application.I have many movies that I love and I couldn't ever decide on a favorite movie. At the time, however, I had recently watched "With Honors" for about the 20th time and I chose it for my answer. Researching the movie on this website, I was astounded when I discovered that it did not win (well, it wasn't even nominated for) any award on screen writing or acting. It was only nominated for Best Original Song ("I'll Remember", performed by Madonna).The film centers on Montgomery 'Monty' Kessler (Brendan Fraser) a government senior student at Harvard University, who thinks his life depends on his thesis. When his computer crashes, Monty decides that the reasonable thing to do is to rush to make copies of the only hard copy of the thesis he has. But on the way to the copy shop, he has an accident and the thesis falls into the boiler room of the library and into the hands of Simon Wilder (Joe Pesci), a homeless man who has made a makeshift home in there. At first, there is tension between the two, as Monty is outraged for the deal he is forced to make with Simon: for each day of food and shelter, Monty gets one page of the thesis. As time goes by, Monty realizes that there is more to Simon than meets the eye. The relationship between Monty and Simon develops into a strong friendship and Monty soon learns that there is more to life than graduating with honors.I am always moved by the beautiful story and the incredible acting in this film. The performances are so honest that the story seems to have been taken out of real life. The transition in the character of Monty, from a young man that considers grades and recognition to be the most important things in the world, to a man, touched by the life of a "bum" – as Simon refers to himself – who is intelligent and good-natured, and knows the meaning of love.The last few lines in the movie always bring tears to my eyes, as Monty reads Simon's self-written obituary: "He is survived by his family: Jeff Hawks, who always remembers to flush; Everett Calloway, who knows how to use words; Courtney Blumenthal, who is strong, and also knows how to love; and by Montgomery Kessler, who will graduate life with honor, and without regret."

This movie is an amazing meeting of the minds. In a time where compassion is barely making rounds, and where those who make it part of their vocabulary are deemed as lower than criminals, with honors illustrates that as individualistic as our society likes to be deemed, we are a community. Joe Pesci plays Simon Wilder, a homeless ex-merchant marine, who teaches Montgomery, played by Brendan Fraser, generosity and compassion. He retains a draft of Monty's thesis, the center of Brendan's grim existence, after it falls down into the boiler room of Harvard University's library.Pesci decides to leverage this circumstance and offers a page in exchange for various items which includes a van where he shall sleep. Monty, in exasperation, re-evaluates his priorities and the thesis itself as he realizes that selfishness and being cold, makes him that less human and honorable. At the possible brink of Pesci's character's death, Monty does a full 180 degree turn. Additionally, he then changes his thesis to the disdain of Gore Vidal.This movie is a must see for all that study, vote or even think about government and its role in society. Our growing homeless situation in the States and abroad is a reminder that we do need each other to some degree.An excellent movie by Keshishian who was also a Harvard graduate. The song by Madonna is moving and an excellent accompaniment to this stellar movie. Not to mention, a step up for Moira Kelley who had previously done that ridiculous skating movie and then went to do a sting on One Tree Hill.

Perhaps if some of our representatives watched this movie, they would gain a little understanding. It is certainly a good movie for the young to watch. It displays a change of heart through an experience that many of us don't receive when we are young.As a Harvard student sets forth to write his assigned term paper, he runs into a homeless man, a self-professed "bum." He loses his term paper to the "bum" who is living in the library basement and the "bum" makes an exchange for each page of his term paper. In the process, the college student learns more about the realities of life.This movie could change your attitude about how you view people on the streets. It could also change your attitude about how you view our president and other representatives.Love, Hope, Peace, & Christ Be With You, Cal-el & Black Canary
