To say this movie came out 7 years ago, when blu-ray and HD was unheard of, this movie is AMAZING on Blu-Ray. I've always loved the film, but it has re-kindled my love for this classic. And I think that's what Blu-Ray is all about. Get it. Watch it. Love it.

I saw a Sam Shepherd play recently, so I was quite surprised to see that Sam Shepherd wrote this screenplay. But having seen two pieces of his work, you can detect a style. Shepherd examines the dark side of families, the frustrations, the pain, the fights and their consequences. He likes long monologues uncovering a web of events and feelings. I think the dialogue in this film is superb. The landscape and the music is also rich in metaphor. Kinski is a wisperish, idealised beauty. The other adult characters are weatherbeaten by life's demands. This is a long, slow and often banal film, but it says something about real lives. I first saw this film over twenty years ago. It lingers and haunts, and that thematic strum of the guitar ... Read More:

4.Swordfish [2001] (REGION 1) (NTSC) starring: John Travolta, Hugh Jackman, Halle Berry, Don Cheadle, Sam Shepard directed by: Dominic Sena October 30, 2001
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: £0.22
This movie makes a lot of promises all along, but does not manage to materialize them. Despite some special effects (not all so special in fact), stunting, violence, a bit of glamour, pseudo-cyber links, it does not manage to provide a convincing result. Some of the characters are well played (namely Ginger (Halle Berry) and Stanley (Hugh Jackman)), John Travolta comfortably plays his proven and apparently preferred tough guy role. But that is not enough. A movie where people are killed and then resurrected, that leaves the audience wondering who actually end up enjoying the big bucks (the real guy or someone else who had been impersonating him since a not well defined time of the movie), cannot be convincing. Besides, ... Read More:

I THINK I CAN CLAIM MYSELF TO BE FU'S GREATEST FAN. I HAVE READ THE 3 BOOKS MORE THAN 10 TIMES AND WATCHED THE 1ST 2 VIDEO EDITIONS OVER A 100 TIMES. BUT I WAS TRULY DISAPPOINTED IN THE FINAL CUT. IT'S INTERESTING BUT I TRULY PREFERED BBC'S VERSION OF THE 2 1ST STORY LINES TO THE BOOK BU THE 3RD ONE, SIMPLY PROVED THAT AUTHOR IS A TRUE GENIUS. WHLE THE BOOK IS BRILLIANT, ENTERTAINING AND BREATHTAKING, THE MOVIE IS BORING AND ONLY COLOURED BY A FEW SHOUTS AND A BUNCH OF BORING SEX SCENES. I DEFINITELY EXPECTED BETTER THAN THIS, SPECIALLY THE ENDING WHICH WAS ABSOLUTELY AWFUL IN THE VIDEO AND BRILLIANT IN THE BOOK. SO IF YOU ARE PLANNING TO ENJOY THE MOVIE, WATCH IT BEFORE READING THE BOOK. OTHERWISE YOU'LL FIND THE MOVIE A TRUE WASTE OF TIME.
