Defintly worth buying.

one of the most powerful films from the 1990's. I never thought kevin costner and clint eastwood could be as good as they were in dances with wolves and unforgiven but here they both proved to be even better together onscreen. the chemistry between actors kevin costner and the young boy is partly why the whole movie works alongside Clint endearing character and a very powerful story line and message about mistakes we make and how we soon we rtegret making them. A must see for anyone who ever wanted to be moved

a decent motion picture about the last 24 hours before the death of bobby kennedy. The movie circles around a numch of characters and their usual lives and how Bobby kenedy means to them and how his death affected them all.

with a wonderful cast in cluding the gorgeous demi moore, sexy sharon ston, emilio estevez in a comebackrole, anthony hopkins, harry belafontewilliam h macy, lindsay lohan, helen hunt and elijah wood all are wonderful in their small parts as is laurence fishburne and christian slater. With a good story, some very engrossing scenes, some good eprformances and decent direction from emilio estevez could have been better except there are too many character stoires that some feel incomplete and some of the dialogue is contrite.


good but not great and worth watching.

a fairly suspensful well acted film with two very good performances froim alec baldwin and demi moore and a very early performance from sopranos james gandolphini and joseph gordon levit who would later appear on third rock from the sun and the lookout
