5.0 out of 5 stars WONDERFUL, PLEASANT, EASY TO WATCH, June 7, 2000

By 

"brybrown" (Florida) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Sweet Talker [VHS] (VHS Tape)

This is a very enjoyable movie, no sex, no violence. It's a pleasure to see a movie like this.

Bryan Brown is conman Harry Reynolds who travels to a small Australian beach town with plans to scam the residents. However, his plans change when another conman comes to town and Harry becomes involved with a small boy and his mother.

The relationship between the boy and Harry is what makes this movie special.

This movie may be predictable but it is, nontheless, very pleasant to watch. Beautiful scenery and good acting.

4.0 out of 5 stars Thoroughly enjoyable and charming film!, November 12, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Sweet Talker [VHS] (VHS Tape)

I was surprised into watching this film one night a few years ago, and am VERY glad I did! Bryan Brown is as robust and clever as always, and the doe-eyed, strong-minded Karen Allen is a perfect foil/love interest for Brown's "Harold Hill"-esque con-man. In fact, this film is quite like The Music Man in many ways, albeit without the music! Brown's scam-artist intends to milk a small coastal town out of it's hard-earned money, but has a change of plans when Allen and her son find their way into his heart. There's comedy and light drama here, and the entire cast seems well suited to the script and storyline. In all, this is a charming film, and if a little predictability can be endured, it will be sure to satisfy.

5.0 out of 5 stars Emotional at times, well acted, beautiful Aussie scenery, June 26, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Sweet Talker [VHS] (VHS Tape)

What a very pleasant surprise to be able to sit down with your family, and watch a most surprising video. Bryan Brown is the usual larrikan he can be. Karen Allen, the cute, bubbly girl next door, and Justin Rosniak. what a find he has been. This child will go a long way in a very fickle industry. Whomever may have cast this young boy, certainly receives top honours. He us extremely professional, and a charming little Aussie. I look forward to Justin Rosniaks next movie................Great viewing
