COMMUNITY REVIEWS
touching movie
submitted by ferdoble on July 31, 2011, 9:42pm
This movie, was fun, funny, and heartwarming. Robin Williams carries this film in a way that he does in most of his other films. He is both touching and funny. Jeff Bridges is also wonderful. I'm so glad that I came across this classic.
Watch it, it'll make you feel good
Realistically Magical submitted by Fevvers - STAR473 on August 27, 2014, 8:39pm Terry Gilliam uses the legend of the ill, unhealable Fisher King as the basis for this magical movie. It's very moving, surreal, and sad - but also has a brightness and hope to it, and humor.
