Editorial Review

This 1992 crowd pleaser made almost as much money for Whitney Houston as its chart-busting soundtrack. A high-wattage star vehicle as only Hollywood can make, Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars Letting your guard down .....
Hmmmm .... I think the theme song says it all ... I lost "my bodyguard" too when I too jumped on a plane to California. Two different worlds can only collide for a short time.
5-0 out of 5 stars BRILLIANT!

Editorial Review

Get mindless for awhile with this 1997 disaster flick, starring the La Brea Tar Pits in Los Angeles as a funky place for lava to spew, plus Tommy Lee Jones and Anne Heche as the brave souls who know how to shut off the spout. Director Mick Jackson (Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars Volcano Shows It's Stuff.
Although it is a far-fetched plot when you first hear it, the filming of it makes you believe that it could happen. That plates underneath the soil of L.A. could possibly shift hard enough for lava to burst through. Tommy lee Jones, in his usual everyman role, plays a father trying to keep his life together when reports of a possible Volcano threat surface. Like always, proffesionals and specialits claim that that kind of incident would never happen but, through building reports, it does. A classic disaster movie with heroes sacrificing left and right to insure the safety of their fellow men. Lots of cool special effects and lots of great deep-thinking acting. A good buy.

1-0 out of 5 stars awful, awful, awful [...]
i think everything that needs to be said about this movie has already been said. i actually couldn't bear to watch it right through so maybe it suddenly got really good right after the bit where the guy's hanging off a firetruck ladder over an advancing lava flow which is so hot his shoes are melting, but the metal of the ladder is still somehow cool enough to hold onto with bare hands. but it's pointless to start nitpicking since the whole rotten film is one giant, err, nit i suppose. i only gave one star because there's no zero-star option.

3-0 out of 5 stars Poor Release ofVolcano Movie
Overall, I thought the movie was stupid and a waist of time.I though the movie did not have much plot to it and felt it could have been much better.I did like the special effects that were used. Tommy Lee Jones was a good actor and played his part.I would wait to rent it and not own it as my own copy. ... Read more

4-0 out of 5 stars "You're going to be locked up, until we find out if you are sane or insane."
Chattahoochee (1989) is a film inspired by true events of a man, after returning home from the Korean war, went crazy go nuts, got hisself locked up in a state loony bin, documented and reported all the abuses he saw and experienced, which eventually led to reforms of the system for public provided care of the mentally ill. Directed by Mick Jackson (L.A. Story, The Bodyguard), the film stars Gary Oldman (Sid and Nancy, Romeo Is Bleeding) as the Emmett Foley, a certified hero in the Korean conflict and a certified nut at home. Also appearing is Dennis Hopper (True Romance, Space Truckers), Frances McDormand (Fargo, Johnny Skidmarks), Pamela Reed (Cadillac Man, Kindergarten Cop), Ned `Squeal Like a Pig' Beatty (Rudy, Radioland Murders), and M. Emmet Walsh (Slap Shot, The Jerk, Blade Runner).
5-0 out of 5 stars Moving
This movie is very moving. I saw this because I saw that Gary Oldman was in it and I will watch any movie he is in. I am glad I did, because this is one of his best performances, even as a young as he was. Based on a true story, Chattahoochee mainly takes place in an insane asylum. Dennis Hopper is also very effective as another inmate. The breadth of emotional range and display is amazing out of both actors. This movie also makes me wish Gary Oldman got more lead roles; he can carry a film like no other and is a much better actor than any one else out there (respectively). Anyone looking for a very deep, involving, emotional story that is based on true events should be looking here.

4-0 out of 5 stars Completely Biased, I Admit...
Truthfully, I know nothing of this movie's history, nothing of the actual events from which it was taken. However, considering the film for film's value alone, its strengths are easily indentifiable. Gary Oldman is absolutely brilliant. Any fan who simply loves to watch him work, loves to study each inflection of his ever changable features, will be in heaven just as I was. Though there are many movies of his I enjoy more - few display his breadth and depth so completely. He's nearly flawless here, and is present in almost every scene. Dennis Hopper is also uncomfortably believable, and the supporting cast was perfect (Frances McDormand, Ned Beatty, Pamela Reed). Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars Well constructed and spot-on
As a clinical psychologist who specializes in the development, analysis and evaluation of child sexual abuse interviews, I have reviewed many of the the materials associated with the real McMartin case. While I understand the nature of people who want to 'believe the children', it must also be known that there are some very bad interviewing practices which can affect how they remember events and what they report (not just children - adults as well).These kids were not fools, they were victims - but the McMartins were also victims. They were both victims of the very problematic interviewing techniques used in this case.I can tell you: not only was the portrayal fair, but it left out some of the most problematic interviewer behaviors.There were some interviewer behaviors so wildly inappropriate that viewers would never have believed they occurred. They did.
2-0 out of 5 stars They told the wrong story
I grew up in Manhattan Beach in the 80's. Luckily for me, I went to a different pre-school. I grew up with bumper stickers reading, "I believe the children." 5-0 out of 5 stars James Woods, Superstar
Armed with a perfect Verbal SAT score and an IQ of 180, intellectual powerhouse James Woods aces his portrayal of a defense attorney who, against the political might of the Los Angeles District Attorney's office, brings the best possible approximation of justice to a family falsely accused of committing the most heinous of non-capital crimes--a family already tried and convicted, though ambitious, reckless, and sensational reporting, in the court of public opinion.Read more
