Erica K Starting to watch this movie i already was skeptical about this being good; due to the neon green font- Like you could have have chosen a better font? But actually in general the movie was good!It really shows a old "modern" life and it was actually really satisfying to see how people lived, talked with each other, worked, and etc... the entire land owning premise of the movie was also a good key to show where people stood with each other; really good representation! The cinematography was great, the actors, costumes, scenes, and props were amazing as well and honestly really happy i watched the movie! Really opens my mind to WAY before my time and how people survived. One thing i didn't like was the ending, it didn't make sense to me of how Shannon was just so chill about everything (finding Joseph again) and also Joseph dies and then just....doesn't? I feel like the ending was rushed which is something i really didn't like about the movie, but other than that the movie was really cool!Also i saw this movie was PG, i wouldn't rate that, i would rate it about either PG-13 or 16+. Rated 4/5 Stars • Rated 4 out of 5 stars 03/11/24 Full Review Tom C As an Irishman, I think this movie is great fun. Despite some terrible Irish accents from the American actors, the movie is quite fun.If you told me to pick someone to direct an American produced Irish period piece romantic movie, Ron Howard would be pretty far down on that list but he actually does a really good job. I have no complaints.John Williams made an absolutely incredible soundtrack that's one of the best of his career.Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman are both quite good in their roles despite their hilariously bad accents. They both play their roles well and have good chemistry with each other, because they were married at the time. As a Star Trek fan, I loved seeing Colm Meaney show up in this movie. And he actually did a really good job. Colm Meaney is actually Irish so of course he didn't have some terrible accent or anything.I genuinely liked this movie. I thought the Irish accents were funny but the movie itself isn't bad and neither are the performances. Rated 4/5 Stars • Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/20/24 Full Review Gabe A Love it when Tom Cruise does the Tom Cruise run, coolest thing ever. (I watch all his movies for this purpose). Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/07/24 Full Review Debra B I'm not sure what's up with the low ratings for this movie, but I love it! It's one of my favorite movies from the 90s. Romance, adventure, and great acting throughout! Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 09/17/23 Full Review Jessica L I am not a fan of Tom Cruise. I was hoping it would evoke some sort of emotion in me, but it didn't.
