thiago s Filme fraco, o roteiro é fraco, o filme tem cenas de fracas, a história é fraca, o elenco é mais ou menos e ninguém melhora o filme, os personagens sao ruins, e faltou muitas cenas para o filme ser bom. Rated 0.5/5 Stars •  Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 03/22/25 Full Review Christian K Can see and feel the original PTA juice backed up by strong acting and a original story. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/27/25 Full Review Isa B Sydney or "Hard Eight" is the outstanding first feature length film from the career of Paul Thomas Anderson. Anderson got everything he wanted pertaining to final cut with this picture, but one thing he didnt get was the name. The studio insisted onncalling the film Hard Eight and Mr. Anderson reluctantly agreed. The film is still widely referred to by the director's chosen title. I absolutely love this picture. Philip Baker Hall was marvelous as Sydney. He is such an underrated talent. If anyone doubts his greatness, please do yourself a favor and watch Secret Honor by the legendary Robert Altman. That is the film where P.T. Anderson first saw Mr. Philip Baker Hall. A match made in heaven, if you ask me. Hall was also brilliant in Anderson's other films, Boogie Night and Magnolia. Anyway, I digress. John C. Reilly and Samuel L. Jackson were fantastic in their respective roles as well. This is a very good film and I highly recommend it. 90/100 Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 12/08/24 Full Review alan g Sick movie about trashy individuals. Waste of talent except Paltry who couldn't act her way out of a wet paper bag. Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 11/05/24 Full Review Scott M Fabulous story by PT Anderson about two lovers in Vegas who get some advice and help from an old gambler. Extremely good acting. One of my favorite movies. Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 07/22/24 Full Review M7AMD A This is a classic 90' movie that includes a lot of dine-in restaurants meeting scenes, some swearing and gambling, and a lot of smoking. lol I did like all the actors in the movie, the way they act and talk to each other felt natural but the story was missing a much better ending than that, while the story revealed some twist at the end and i was looking for more thing from the movie but it suddenly ends! I still don't know what the movie was all about exactly but from what i understood is he was missing the love and affection of his children (he kinda gave a hint while talking to Clementine) and also was looking for some forgiveness for what he had done in the past so he wanted to compensate that by looking after the lost man he met at the begging. however, this movie deserves way better ending. Overall i enjoyed sitting late at night watching it and i definitely would recommend it. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 08/23/23 Full Review Read all reviews
