Audience Member Just AWFUL. good twilight zone episode. BAD BAD BAD movie. One of the worst I've seen. I liked Chloe grace Moretz as an actress and I accept that sometimes you just need a paycheck.... but damn. If you need cash that bad, I'll send you a 20. Police academy was a more intelligent movie than this drek Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/14/23 Full Review Audience Member Go buy a boat named Stella Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/29/23 Full Review Audience Member The Willamette Valley gets a shoutout in this film by Jean Hagen and is even pronounced correctly! Oregon is also pronounced in the correct regional dialect. Ralph Meeker plays a "shellshocked" (now PTSD) WWII veteran trying to adjust to regular life my moving in with family who find their relationship strained by his erratic behavior. Nancy Reagan, then Nancy Davis, plays he's sister-in-law. James Whitmore is his brother and Jean Hagen his girlfriend. It's a good film, but it gets an extra half star for Oregon references. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/31/23 Full Review Audience Member good noir from the 2nd cycle Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/21/23 Full Review Read all reviews
