He Was a Quiet Man (15)

'Office punchbag' and 'psychopathic loner' are very unkind descriptions of the troubled character brilliantly portrayed by Christian Slater. Heavy, but cleverly and sympathetically done, with nice little touches like the goldfish to lighten the mood. A very moving and hauntingly memorable film to anyone with the slightest bit of sensitivity towards those unfortunate enough not to fit in.

What a great film. Was one of those films that keep you watching until the end. The ending makes everything come clear - i.e. the majority of the film is the main characters fantasy. Very clever and thought provoking!

I loved this film all the way through but was left a little perplexed by the ending. At least until I read the FAQ on it at IMDB.com. This explained things perfectly and made me love the movie even more.

This movie was great, until the end. Alot of it was really well done, but when it came time to wrap it up, the writer/director decided to tell everyone in the world who doesn't fit in that they should kill themselves for the sake of everyone else. It's a shame too because I really enjoyed most of the movie.

Nowhere memorable? I thought this was one of the most memorable films I've seen all year. There were so many twists and turns you never could guess how it was going to end up. I was very moved by the ending of this movie. Normally don't like Cuthbert but in this she's great.

Comepletely disagree. This film is incredibly memorable. My group talked about it all night after seeing it. Did this reviewer watch this in a theater or in his home? Great ideas and totally unpredictable. What nore could you want?

I disagree wit the reviewer completely. This film succeeds in doing what most films haven't done all year, leave me talking about it for days. The film pulls you in and doesn't let go until the very last frame, which blew me away. Slater and Cuthbert are excellent.
