Broadcast News is a hilarious movie with a great cast. William Hurt and Albert Brooks are simply hilarious,as is Holly Hunter. DON'T MISS IT!

Wagnerian Celebration of Death
Reviewed by shanahan for Dead Man Walking at 2008-08-11 06:10:42
The notion that this film is some kind of serious meditation on capital punishment is hard to understand. The repeated flashbacks to the murder scene are not only gratuitous (how many times do we need to see a murder/rape to get the message?), they border on a macabre preoccupation with violence and death. The moody rhythm of the film, and the "crescendo" execution scene (another lingering scene that suggests fascination with death), are manipulative and ham-fisted. Give us a sharp, tragic look - like "I Want to Live" - at the death penalty; or a thoughtful meditation on murder and the murderer - there's a gap Hollywood has never filled. Don't give us Wagner.

Keep your dreams alive
Reviewed by chains81 for Rudy at 2008-04-15 12:09:18
Ever feel like quiting? Watch this movie. This is a great story about never giving up on your dreams, no matter how far out of reach they may seem. Acting was pretty good, if not great.
