jsullivan2219 This is my favorite movie of all-time. It combines two great genres together: (Drama and Comedy) quite nicely. Dustin Hoffman plays Raymond Babbitt a autistic man with some unique talents, like knowing how many toothpicks fell on the ground or the statistics over the years of each airline crashing (except for Qantas).This is probably Dustin Hoffman's best role of all time. At times you really think he is an autistic man. Tom Cruise should've deserved an award or been nominated at least because he was a great supporting cast. He plays a car salesman who is short tempered at times and doesn't quite understand his brother Raymond. I love this story because you see how one long car ride changes Raymond and Charlie's relationship for the best. Such a great story and message.
Smoreni Zmaj A young, self-centered businessman, on the verge of bankruptcy, finds out, after his father's death, that he has an autistic brother who'll get entire inheritance. To gain half the money he thinks rightfully belongs to him, he "kidnaps" the brother from the sanatorium, but the time they'll spend together will change them both. This beautiful, emotional drama, with a touch of humor, deservedly took four Oscars (best picture, screenplay, director and male leading role), and Dustin Hoffman played probably the best role in his career. Even Tom Cruise, about whom I do not have a high opinion, bought with his performance, and especially the chemistry he has with Hoffman. One of those movies that is forever remembered.10/10
tuomastalasmaa I think this movie is an excellent story of building an emotional connection between Charlie and his autistic brother. Despite their differences, yet are they able to love and understand each other the way no other than own brother could. The movie is funny and emotional. It will make you think about it even weeks after watching it. Its old, but gold. The more you think about it the better it getsI recommend!
skyfall-33402 Trailer: Terrible Movie: AmazingThe trailer is so bad, that I almost didn't want to watch it. I am 12, so I recently just watched it about a month or two ago. It is one of Tom Cruise's best films. It also won the Oscar for best picture. And it deserved it. It's about a man named Charlie Babbit, who goes on a road trip across America, with his brother he never knew he had. Although, his brother has autism.
