Intersection (1994)

the final 30mins are really good

[6/10 · 7 March 2013]

I can understand why the movie is rated 4.9 in 2013. The emotion in both relationship is not well reflected in the first 60 mins. As a men of 40 something, I am not convinced by the screen play.

But the final 30 mins really took my breath away, the letters, the red-hair girl, the phone booth, the accident, the dream...... and the final ending.

If the director can refine the first 60 mins, this film will be remembered by more audiences.

Richard Gere, Lolia Davidovich and Sharon Stone performed pretty well in the movie. The good performance is ruined by the unrealistic story line.

I wish another director will re-create the potential masterpiece.

The Truman Show (1998)

Life is on stage, you don't have the second chance to perform

[9/10 · 3 September 2005]

For most of people, they face a situation which is like this: You are not satisfied with your current situation but you want to change that and you don't have the courage.

But Trueman did that. So we believe we can! Probably like Trueman, we are all on a show and we are all on the performance stage in the every minutes.

Do you want to take a change? So take your own boat and make your own journey.

I feel the film is underrated in IMDb. With the great imagination of the script and the outstanding performance. I gave it 9 out of 10.
