Customer comments on this selection. The Way It Was Meant To Be Filmed!This is an excellent film version of the John Steinbeck novel. Malkovich and Senise capture the essence of their characters and instill in them a true sense of reality as Lenny and George struggle with the times in which they are trying to survive and the developmental disability afflicting Lenny. You will hurt with them and hope for a happy ending which you know will not come. I consider this much better than the Burgess Merideth and Lon Chaney version and a must see. Of Mice and MenMy students really enjoyed this movie. We had read the book as a class and discussed it in detail. They all could not wait to see the movie when we finished. There were characters that they hated and characters that they loved. Over all, this movie was great! Thank you for such quick delivery of this product. Henrietta Presley Teacher DENI am a serious Steinbeck fan. Of Mice and Men is one of his greatest books. Quite honestly, I believed the depth and feeling of Steinbeck's written word could not possibly be captured on film. I was wrong. If you watch this film you will be changed forever. John Malkovich and Gary Sinise are flawless in their portrayals of Linnie and George.  A very bad language movieThis movie states on the box that is is PG13 because of violence...It should state because of bad, bad language. It repeatedly used the name of God's Son, Jesus, my Savior, in a vain and bad way. Reguardless of what we paid for it, we tossed it in the garbage where it belongs. The movie plot got no where...taught no moral lessons ...encouraged no one. The retarded man was shot by his own friend in the end. Bad, Bad movie...don't buy it! Movies based off books can be amazingI had no expectations of this movie. I had not read the story. The movie was a big surprise to me. It was funny and very well made. The actors were greatly chosen. The actors definetely led the movie in a great way. This film is a must as it is needed to be experience through high school. Of Mice & Men proves that movies based off books can be very good even if its classis literature. |
