4.0 out of 5 stars What's up Murray?, November 14, 2003

By A Customer

This review is from: Treed Murray (DVD)

I happen to see this movie quite by accident, and am glad I did. Its not an action movie, or comedy, although there are some funny parts. There are some serious issues in this movie, and the best part, like real life everything does not get resolved at the end of the movie. It leaves you thinking and pondering both how you would have handled this situation, but it also opens your eyes to look past yourself. Murray learns a lot, about himself and about a group of youth, one guy in particular. The youth learn something as well. Lessons are learned at a great cost. A good movie to watch if you work with young people.

4.0 out of 5 stars predator or pray, March 12, 2005

A very good movie. One of the better films David Hewlett has starred in, right up there with Cube. Definitely worth the price. An intriguing look at the good and bad side of society and human nature. David does an excellent job playing Murray, the advertising executive with dirty little secrets and a dysfunctional family life, forced to take refuge up a tree in a city park when he strikes a gang member intending to rob him. I don't know any of the other actors, but they did an equally great job portraying the vicious gang hell bent on getting Murray (David) down. If you're a fan of David's work, I'd definitely get it.
