Really liked this one
Why this has an average rating of only 7.3 is beyond me. This is really darn good, maybe not a “masterpiece” as some of the other reviews have stated, but one of those criminally underrated and overlooked movies. And, heck, starring River Phoenix for crying out loud. Why had I never heard of it? Yeah, it’s got a touch of cheesy ’80s things about it (music, clothing, etc.) but I’ve learned to overlook that sort of thing if it’s actually a good story. Take this and another coming-of-age movie, _This Boy’s Life_ (starring Robert De Niro and Leonardo DiCaprio — why hadn’t I ever heard of that one either?), and you have a couple of the best great-but-underrated movies in recent memory. I’d love a good explanation for why this should only get a 7.3 out of 10, given the quality of a bunch of material with a higher average rating. (I thought 6.9 was the average rating here. This isn’t even close to just average.) Compared to the body of Sidney Lumet’s work, this has got to rank right up near the top, doesn’t it?

Almost a Perfect Film – Running on Empty
There are so many wonderful performances in this film, that it is difficult to decide which one to begin with; but let’s start with River Phoenix. What a horrible loss to the film industry, but even more tragically, what a horrible loss to his older brother, Joaquin, and the rest of the Phoenix family. I know a little about losses like this. River was outstanding in his role. As was Hirsh and Lahti. I am opposed to violence of any kind; but this story of Weatherman-type anarchists who blew up a lab for military research during the Vietnam era stuck a chord with me. The dialogue is thoughtful and genuine, and the situations are tragic. You must see this film, regardless of your political beliefs.
