Top reviews from the United States

  • Reviewed in the United States on June 20, 2012
    Some of the reviews listed here are misleading. This film really had nothing to do with liberal propaganda or even politics at all. Which is one thing I like about it. I'm from the south, and the characters were spot on, almost hyper-realistic. What makes this film enjoyable is that it deals with common themes, death, animals, family, alienation, obsessiveness, and how these relate to the experience of meaningful relationships (that weren't necessarily scripted from Leave it to Beaver). It's also really funny at parts. Life fails to leave me extremely bored and in constant search of entertainment, and so I seldom lack the motivation to get a grasp on unsettling, personal experiences. The kind of which I enjoy recognizing in performances like this film. Equating existential perspectives with liberal propaganda does in fact display a very superficial understanding of film in general, so I'm cool with not doing that and ultimately being stereotyped in my reviews as unenlightened, and defensive of Christianity.

    Giamatti is brilliant as usual. But this film was surprisingly good. Michelle Williams is gorgeous, pensive, brooding, and perfectly cast alongside Giamatti. The supporting actors were on-point and compelling. Indie director Julian Goldberg brought it all home. This film wanders and rambles, and veers from any sort of typical dramatic playbook, and somehow avoids getting lost in its own sentiment like so many other indie films unfortunately do. It's a careful, thoughtful, subtle film, and I'd include it among my all-time favorites.

    Movie based on a story by the renowned Harry Crews. He grew up in South Georgia and taught for many years at U of Florida -- in Gainesville, Florida -- where this movie was filmed. But Paul Giamatti's portrayal is out of sync with the rest of the cast, who, unlike him, seem authentic in that cultural mileau.
  • Reviewed in the United States on August 5, 2007
    This is a movie about a man with personal issues who is obsessed about taming a hawk. The characters interact in unusal ways (the main character sets up his love interest with his mentally challenged nephew for sex!) I have to say this was a hard movie to endure. The story line is very unusual and the conversation hard to understand. The actors should have been coached to enunciate! I had to rewind over and over in a few spots and never did figure out what the actor said, so I just gave up and went on. One thing that was interesting about this movie was the insight to taming a hawk, but I wasn't really sold on why the main character would want to do that. Nice packaging and filming, but entertaining? No.

    The negative reviews of this film must be from people who know nothing about Harry Crews. Harry was still alive when this film was made. He has since left us, but I swear that his ghost is in this film.
    The film captures the spirit of the book. Paul Giamatti's performance is unforgettable. The hawk's performance is unforgettable, too.
    Harry Crews' young son drowned in the 1960's. There is no doubt that Harry wrote this book to deal with his grief.
    I spent a day with Harry in the last year of his life. As grotesque and profane as his books are, the man had a heart of gold, an he was actually very sentimental. Yes, sentimental. He just wrote the truth--the truth of what he saw growing up poor in the south.
    This is one of the best films I have ever seen. It must have been one hell of an experience for the actors, knowing that they were involved in great art. The Gainesville, Florida setting is perfect (including the beautiful Payne's Prairie State Park), The direction, cinematography, and acting are stellar. This is just great cinema. and it's a heartfelt tribute to Harry Crews, one of America's greatest writers.

    I thought this movie looked like a great nature type feel good movie but it turned out to be a over dramatic dis-jointed bunch of disfunctional weirdos and the dialog sounded like they made it up as they went along and not much of it made any sense. I decided to watch it as comedy but still couldn't get through half of it - what a disappointment. I'm surprised that the entire cast didn't commit suicide. Blaaaaagh.
