An undisputed classic with an incredible award-winning performance from Dustin Hoffman, this is another of my favourite movies. Delving into the little-addressed issue of autism and Asperger's syndrome, Hoffman shines and is absolutely astonishing as Raymond Babbitt. There's not ...( read more)
not too bad....tom cruise's role seemed to come naturally to him :P
dustin hoffman was awesome
Dustin Hoffman is brilliant in this movie..one of the best performance ever...He is spot on as an autistic man..
Dustin Hoffman gör en enastående insats. En film som är värd att se mer än en gång!
this movie makes me so happy and raymond warms my heart everytime he recites the wheel of fortune's introduction.....
This movie did a spectacular job of humanizing autistics to the mainstream by using emotional circumstance and humor. This movie is a testament to the versatility of Dustin Hoffman as a performer. And the authentic fart in the telephone booth didn't hurt the star rating either.
Another overrated (but still good) best picture winner. Dustin Hoffman's performance is what really lifts the film up. I am not a fan of Tom Cruise, and felt his wooden and insincere performance brought the film down. Well produced in every way.
My mum nagged me to watch this for ages and I'm glad I finally listening to her because it was brillaint, Cruise and Hoffman were both superb.
One of Tom Cruise's best performances as well as Dustin Hoffman's. It doesn't sugarcoat the reality of autism, but it manages to depict the reality and the many pluses and minuses.
"I'm an excellent driver".
Already an icon of the dramatic genre. Classic.
74/100
A nice drama with very strong acting by Dustin Hoffman! The script is good, too. Nice
awesome! Simple story with great great acting!!!
Dustin Hoffman kicks ass.
VERY TOUCHING ONE...THO AT FIRST YA WANNA REACH OUT AND SHAKE TOM CRUISE SILLY..BUT IN THE END, IT'S A FANTASTIC ONE...
I love this movie, but that's because I have a family member that is Autistic and reminds me of Raymond. The story is good & touching. Tom Cruise is a hottie.
Good movie. Dustin Hoffman's performance is so captivating, you get distracted from the actual story. Rain Man can be slow at times, but it's worthwhile in the end.
now I understand & will love this movie by heart.. now that im raising a rain man of my own.
Definetely one of my favourite films. The subject is so interesing and deep and also Dustin Hoffman and Tom Cruise and doing amazing roles.
it's a rare film which can make tom cruise likeable, however, rain man succeeds, in the end. dustin hoffmans shows that he really is a genius with raymond, tom cruise's autistic older brother. he's anexcellent driver
Raymond: Of course I don't have my underwear. I'm definitely not wearing my underwear.
Charlie: I gave you a fresh pair of mine to wear. Where are they?
Raymond: They're in the pocket of my jacket. Here.
Charlie: I don't want them back.
Raymond: These are not boxer shorts. Mi...( read more)
The movie that got me to take Tom Cruise seriously. In many ways, he outdoes Dustin Hoffmann.
The only good Tom Cruise movie and a fantastic performance by Dustin Hoffman.
Hoffman's performance remains strong 21 years later, while Tom Cruise looks so young it is hard to take him very seriously. The writers explain that the original idea was for Charlie to be about the same age as his brother, and to be even more bitter than Charlie was portrayed. ...( read more)
