3. It's on my "to see" list... is it good?
Keep in mind I'll take your review with a grain of salt, as you thought Grace Jones brought down the tone of "A View to a Kill". :hide:

5. I liked it a lot
But there's no gaurantee you will. It's semi-obscure. Hit or miss. Love it or hate it. In the movie he's coping with the suicide of his wife and he develops a huffing habit with gasoline and develops a love for remote control airplanes. I thought he gave a very strong performance.

2. I saw "Happiness" on Sundance once
It was repelling and compelling at the same time.

I particularly liked him in "The Talented Mr. Ripley". Wonderful performance.

Great character actor.

9. He's terrific.
He's always great, but his contribution in "The Big Lebowski" is one of the reasons that movie is on my top ten list.

12. yup, that was a brilliant performance
Ripley is one of my fav movies. I love Anthony Minghella.

I remember the first time I saw PSH in Scent of a Woman....he's the perfect privileged snob. He refined the part in Ripley.

11. He's great, but...NOBODY should have been allowed to play Lester Bangs.
I'm sorry, it's just a thing with me....

16. PSH was certainly the best part of that film.
Even Sarah was less than adequate.

You want to stay away from a film?
Avoid "Last Days".
