Arlington Road--a Slowish Start As It Sets The Sc
Arlington Road--A slowish start as it sets the scene but a believable film which builds up suspicion and suspense. It made me think-- in this day and and age,perhaps we should pay more attention to similar reports of behaviour and not disregard them as considered nutters ravings. Good acting all round from Jeff Bridges and Tim Robbins
Brilliant Film, Defys The Codes And Conventions Of
Brilliant film, defys the codes and conventions of the genre and surprises the audience with a twist at the end. Requires brain work but is worth it in the end. Excellent storyline, good performances.
I agree with this review because... It was a good thriller, interesting story, with plot twists and turns and well acted by a stellar cast.
Whilst Recieving Many A Good Review From A Multitu
Whilst recieving many a good review from a multitude of respected critics, i found his film at times disappointing, and often highly offensive. As much as i am ashamed to admit, my primary income at the moment is as a male nanny/babysitter, as i am between jobs, and often in the evening i rent a film to pass the time.
From the infomation given on the box, i was not expecting and of the actual contents, and even deemed it suitable for my young babysats to watch, how wrong i was!
The excess nudity was not by far and away the worst part of the film, in fact it seemed in moderation to the extreme violence employed by the producers in an effort to get people to see the film.
In point of fact, this film just sets in stone many of the points raised by the debate currently raging about censorship! The fact that such a film was allowed to be released with it containing the material that it does. Although considering the level that society has sunk to, i hardly think it fair to blame the consequnces of civilisation gone astray on one film, it is merely the subjuntive climax of the deterioating society as a whole.
IN OTHER WORDS, DONT SEE THIS FILM.
I disagree with this review because... The film was rated R or no one under 17 should be viewing, and the reviewer states he was surprised by the fact it wasn't suitable for his "young" charges as he babysat. He also mentions nudity and there was no nudity in this film. I realize the review is 5 years old but in case someone looks to this review for guidance I want them to know that this reviewer has certain facts wrong and they need to look at other sources.
A Really Good Film. Arlington Road Is Slow To Buil
A really good film. Arlington Road is slow to build without being too dreary, with just enough information to let you make your own investigations along with the main character.
The plot and ultimate ending are craftily written, with excellent intertwined storylines, and a great dead-pan bad-guy who keeps you guessing till the finale'
