Logan By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.

Dana An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.

petersonwilliam-45667 Barry Levinson's Rainman is a good but not great film and I feel its kinda overrated. It is a good, solid feature film but certainly not worthy of best picture. Furthermore with the passage of time we have seen that the autistic portrayal here is kinda skewed to put it mildly. However, having said this it is a good film featuring a great performance by Dustin Hoffman who won an Oscar for his portrayal of an autistic brother to Tom Cruise's straight man. Regardless, this is a good watch, if for nothing else then for the fact that it won many awards.

Smoreni Zmaj A young, self-centered businessman, on the verge of bankruptcy, finds out, after his father's death, that he has an autistic brother who'll get entire inheritance. To gain half the money he thinks rightfully belongs to him, he "kidnaps" the brother from the sanatorium, but the time they'll spend together will change them both. This beautiful, emotional drama, with a touch of humor, deservedly took four Oscars (best picture, screenplay, director and male leading role), and Dustin Hoffman played probably the best role in his career. Even Tom Cruise, about whom I do not have a high opinion, bought with his performance, and especially the chemistry he has with Hoffman. One of those movies that is forever remembered.10/10

justin-fencsak Nearly 30 years ago, Rain Man came out and became a sleeper hit at the box office and won the Oscar for best picture. It was a game changer at the box office, with the movie dealing with autism, loneliness, and a getaway. Dustin Hoffman is great as the retarded character while Tom Cruise is his best friend. The cinematography is great, the soundtrack by Hans Zimmer (his first) amazing, and the acting is legendary. My dad grew up watching this movie on VHS and i finally watched it on bluray since i'm old enough to see this movie. It's not for kids since it's rated R.

Amir Ghorbani I think this movie showed that humans can have peculiar understandings, and implicitly proved that we can make everything real! because what is real?? like other good movies it doesn't stand in our mind and slides to our heart to make sense ! it stimulated the willing for power in the spectators!
