5.0 out of 5 stars Falling From Grace But Showing More New Talent, July 24, 2001

This review is from: Falling From Grace [VHS] (VHS Tape)

Having been a Mellencamp fan for 20+ years, I must say that he never ceases to amaze me with the versatility of his talents. This movie was no exception! I must admit the movie is even better the second time you see it and each time thereafter; you catch subtlities and details you miss the first time while simply following the plot. Having grown up in a town and being happily transplanted to the country and farm life made this movie even better for me. It is so similar in many ways to the type of life and things that a lot of us "farm folk" experience. The "realness" of the people only served as an incredible tool to further enhance the story and as usual, there is a lesson hidden therein. The scenary is beautiful. I only regret that 5 stars is all I could give it; it deserves more. "Falling From Grace" IS a good movie and my Johnny Boy shows everyone that he can also be a good actor/director. Folks, don't pass this one by, especially if you have ever had any ties to or passion for the country and/or farm life. And be sure to watch it at least twice!!

5.0 out of 5 stars A great first acting/directing debut!, August 11, 1999

JM has shown yet another side of his talent with this movie. It is now clear that this man is more than a musician and an artist -- John Mellencamp is an actor and director who can touch on so many real emotions. Like his songs, this movie is about 'real' people, and how even famous people have to face their demons and deal with life's trials.

This review is from: Falling From Grace (DVD)

i have no idea why so many folks are bashing this film. sure its not a special effects extravaganza with a huge hollywood budget . but as a movie exploring small town life and the things left behind its pretty good. mellencamp's acting is suttle but pretty decent in my opinion. the ultimate test of a good movie is if it entertains and it did the trick for me.
