The screenplay didn't ring true, the dialogue was

The screenplay didn't ring true, the dialogue was too pat. The acting wasn't bad. Too slow moving at times and it didn't flow smoothly. But it does have some memorable moments. Not much of an effort toward period detail.

This was a real gem..a kind of tone-poem

This was a real gem..a kind of tone-poem, which I thoroughly enjoyed. In a word, it is a character study of an eccentric American family, with members who are anything but boring, and the picture had some particularly poignant moments, and overall fine acting. I was glad I had the foresight to record the film on DVD disc. I am mystified by all the poor reviews. Perhaps prejudice, or many of the critics actually viewed another film. Now, "Raising Arizona," "Smiley's People" and "Rocky Horror Picture Show" (and portions of "The Fifth Element")...those were dogs. Oh, though the ending was not fully satisfying, it contained a nugget of great fun. Left me with a chuckle, as I stepped into the kitchen for another glass of wine. A very worthwhile film, and yes, sometimes the critics DO get it wrong!!!

Look, I'm appreciative of small, quiet movies--like I'm

Look, I'm appreciative of small, quiet movies--like I'm very grateful that someone made "The Station Agent"--but "Beautiful Ohio" is small and quiet and not much of a movie. You won't be sitting on the edge of your seat due to the conflict. This movie is like you broke into someone's house to rob it, they came home early and you are hiding in a closet watching a family that is obviously dysfunctional, but not much is happening. The most ridiculous part of this movie is when the oldest son's girlfriend moves into the basement--drops down a mattress to sleep on--and the family doesn't figure this out within six hours. This takes place in 1973, and the family's father acts like he just discovered there was something called Rock & Roll. The cast is great, but I can't believe that each one of these actors read the script amd didn't immediately in the other direction.
