Not bad of a movie.I don't see what the bad comments are about., 14 July 2005

I don't see why there's so many bad comments about this movie. Peoples attention span has diminished so much through the years that they cant see a true classic movie like Out Of The Blue when its right in front of them. The movie was an all time great classic with great realistic performances by Dennis Hopper, Don Gordon and Sharon Farrell and the movie had that certain realism that you can relate to in it just like the film Easy Rider which was another movie that Dennis Hopper made and stared in.The movie sort of leaves you thinking over your life and what you have accomplished with it. Give the movie a chance and you will see thats an amazing well made movie.
