4.0 out of 5 stars A Real Weeper, June 1, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Table for Five [VHS] (VHS Tape)

This is one of those movies that is perfect for those days when you feel like a good cry. Just imagine a marathon of Penny Serenade, Terms of Endearment (when she sees her kids for the last time!) and add Table for Five to that list. Maybe it was just the mood I was in, or I am not properly medicated, but this was a terrific tearjerker. Well written, acted, and filmed, it is a great flick!

5.0 out of 5 stars A man bridges a gap with his children..., January 5, 2003

This review is from: Table for Five [VHS] (VHS Tape)

Jon Voight plays a divorced father of three, who rarely sees his kids, remembers their birthdays, and generally isn't much of a parent. The role of parent to the kids belongs to his beautiful ex-wife, played by Millie Perkins, and her current husband, a loving man played by Richard Crenna. Voight arrives to take his children on their yearly vacation together, and it turns out to be a Mediterranean cruise. During the cruise, the love he has for his kids is evident as well as the unfamiliarity he has with playing the father and putting his kids first. But when a tragedy strikes back home, Voight must decide if taking on the role of father permanently is something he can and wants to do...

A very emotional, well-acted piece of work by Jon Voight. Perhaps his best acting ever. Don't miss this one.
