Supelice Dreadfully Boring

Matrixiole Simple and well acted, it has tension enough to knot the stomach.

tostinati This film won't appeal to three types: 1) those who get a bad '80s hair-band vibe from any film that hasn't just been released because their frame of reference is erroneous, 2) those who absolutely must feel that they have conceived every witticism and crafted every irony that exists, or else feel threatened by the clear existence of superior talent in the universe and react like a cranky three year old at nap time or 3) those who have attained that rarefied and magical metaphysical status which precludes their doing anything as carnal and popular as watching real movies anymore -- in spite of the fact that they won't shut up about their "love of cinema."Miracles IS laugh out loud funny. Conti is brilliant. Garr was never better. (I have no idea who directed it, and other than feeling a little bad for failing to look the guy up and give him his props, I would say it doesn't matter. It's not an "oh look at me, I know all the directors" kind of flick.) The situations and set pieces are disarmingly unexpected, delightfully silly and often -- not always, but OFTEN -- wholly hilarious. I won't even venture the opinion, as some have, that the key to life isn't contained in this film. I dunno, Cisco. ...The bit with the priest dismissing the miracle as "no miracle" seemed as profound as anything anyone has had the kahunas to put in a movie in the last 20 years. Bottom line, only a fool argues with the spasm of laughter. The sniffy, supercilious sorts who keep whining about the script and direction should seek out A Breed Apart, another loss leader currently making the rounds on THIS Network. Miracles will look like Citizen Kane beside it. ...Guaranteed, or the money you spent watching it on free TV back.Work with it, Sherlock.

hotlurvemachine Although this movie has not done well on the polls of Amazon, whenever I've seen it I've always found it enjoyable. (So much so that I felt obliged to write this brief review on it !!) O.k, its a bit daft in places and some of the humour is a bit dated perhaps, but the story trundles along with plenty of twists, its not predictable and the relationship between the two main two characters slowly builds up and develops throughout the film.Both Tom Conti and Terri Garr give good performances and are believable in their roles. (And I've always had a shot spot for Terri Gar, and I find her particularly appealing in this film !)The bungling villains are also well played (though a bit cheesy) and Christopher Lloyd seems to enjoy playing his part.Overall, this film is never going to be considered a masterpiece as its just a light hearted family comedy adventure story - designed to be watched by kids, but engaging and entertaining enough to be watched by their parents as well.

mugwah This is a comedy well worth seeing. If you like to laugh, then this is a movie for you. You can't be a dolt and appreciate everything that this movie has to offer. "Miracles" contains so many different styles of humor. There is a little slap stick throughout, but most of it is very well thought out, well timed lines and loads of clever, subtle things that can only be caught by someone with quick wit. I never tire of watching this movie. Remember that the title is "Miracles" as you watch it. I hope that this movie will make it to DVD. It is a fun comedy. If you can find it in the video store, give it a whirl. Like so many films, the more times that you see it, the more that you will get out of it. Enjoy!

Lee B I love this movie. Roger (Tom Conti) and Jean (Terri Garr) are a newly-divorced couple who meet again by accident (literally!) and wind up on a truly incredible journey. Christopher Lloyd has a supporting role as a mad pilot.My favourite parts are the witchdoctor, the plane landing sequence and the jailbreak and its consequences. The only false note is Tom Conti's American accent, but it's easy to overlook as the rest of the movie hangs together so well.9 out of 10 from me!
