5.0 out of 5 stars Unrecognized classic, February 11, 2002

By 

"capito" (Toronto, Ontario Canada) - See all my reviews

This review is from: True Confessions [VHS] (VHS Tape)

I am in complete agreement with 'A viewer from Summit N.J.', unable to understand why this thoughtful, moving film failed to achieve the recognition is so clearly deserves. De Niro and Duvall are both at their distinguished best, their interaction as brothers one of the most persuasive and compelling I have ever seen on the screen. The evocation of the period - including the Catholic Church of the day - seems flawless, and the slowly unfolding drama of personal redemption gives the movie very unusual dramatic weight. An excellent film in every way.

5.0 out of 5 stars critics are sometimes wrong, December 16, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: True Confessions [VHS] (VHS Tape)

Simply stated, this is a great watch. The critics did not care for this effort. Some say it is too complex, too much thinking required to follow the plot. Not at all. It is a perfect blend of hero, anti-hero, humanity's darkside and finally, a redeeming closure. DeNiro and Duvall "made" this movie!
