Review created: 07/15/08

I loved the movie, but the "F" word was too much and totally unnecessary. Dustin Hoffman will always be one of the great actors and he was perfect in his part. Lots of love and compassion which makes it a movie to rerun over and over again.

The story held my interest. The acting was superb. I decided to buy it because I saw it years ago, and my husband didn't. I wanted to let him enjoy seeing it, also.

  **---** AN AWESOME MOVIE!! A++!! A CLASSIC!! **---**
Review created: 04/03/08(updated 04/03/08)

RAIN MAN is AN AWESOME FILM!! It is an older film(80's) that has been digitally remastered on DVD. We have loved this movie since it was first introduced, back in the day. Dustin Hoffman plays an Autistic Adult, and Tom Cruise plays his long lost brother, whom he never knew existed. The come together at a time when their father passes. At first their relationship is quite distant and unknown, with Cruise having other intentions. Once they begin to spend a day or two togther, their emotions grow on each other, and they develope a long-lost bond. Dustin Hoffman and Tom Cruise PLAY EXCEPTIONAL PARTS, as well as other great faces which make this movie come together. AN EXCELLENT FILM!!! A LOT OF ACTION, VERY VERY INTERESTING, VERY WELL WRITTEN, A MUST SEE!! Also, all of the music fits very well into the movie, making it memorable.

Rent It or Buy It? If you havent seen it, BUY IT!!
Most of us that have seen it, own it! Its a CLASSIC you'll be sure to watch over and over!

Our Overall Rating: 10/10 WE HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT!!

We hope that you found this Review helpful! Thanks for shopping eBay!!

  A reasonable DVD price, but very disappointed.
Review created: 02/03/08

I bought a DVD movie, Rain Man, with a very reasonable price and shipping in December. However, the picture on the auction was totally different from the DVD I received, and it seemed like the one I got is completely different version, but the seller confirmed that it was because the picture was provided by Ebay (I still have that e-mail message). I have nothing to complaint about the DVD because it is yet unopened. It's not valuable to return the item because the internationl shipping cost is almost the same cost as the price of the DVD plus shipping that I paid. Again, there is nothing to complaint about the product. It is just very disappointed

  A movie to have in your collection
Review created: 09/04/07

I bought it because my little cousin mentioned how she had never saw the movie. I remember watching it when I was younger with my uncle and thought it was a good movie with a point. So I searched for it and found a good purchase price. It's an excellent movie just to have in my collection. It's one of those older movies that people just remember or remember parts of.

Boy you just can not beat Tom Cruise and Dustin Hoffman together in movie. This movie was great and I can see why Hoffman won an award for his acting performance. It made you laugh and cry. I loved it and will enjoy watching it for years to come.

Can`t hardly beat Dustin Hoffman and Tom Cruise in a movie together. Will watch this one repeatly. Hoffman does a really great job playing Raymond and so does Cruise in the roll of Charlie.

My wife is a graduate level Psychology Professor at a local University and they were studying autism as part of one of her classes. There were specific parts of the movie that were applicable to her class, so that's why I purchased the DVD.

  Out of the mouths of babes .....
Review created: 10/11/06

Dustin Hoffman and Tom Cruise combine in a moving redemption drama that raises a host of questions about the nature of loyalty and love. Opening scenes show Charlie Babbitt (Tom Cruise) to be an unprincipled hustler without either quality. As the film unrolls, the seeds of both are planted and his self-interest and self-absorption turn to something more charitable. Greed and a desire for confrontation are supplanted by an altruistic spirit, a desire to protect and, for want of a longer word, by love.

Motive and goals, loyalty and love, dispassion and engagement are examined in different situations from the bedroom to the casino. Hoffman gives a remarkable performance as an idiot savant; Tom Cruise plays Tom Cruise; Maria Colino plays a tough but sympathetic role as Charlie Babbitt's girlfriend. Music by Hans Zimmer is predictably excellent; the hand of Barry Levinson is firmly in control. A great film to own and to revisit.

RAIN MAN is one of my favorite movies. I bought it to add to my collection. This was a challenging role for Dustin Hoffman and he passed all expectations and went on to win the Academy Award for Best Actor. He rightfully deserved it. Tom Cruise was excellent in his role as the selfish, conviving brother. Yet after spending time and getting to know his mentally challenged brother, his character learn to love and become completely unselfish. I like happy endings.

  Rain Man: Best Work of Dustin Hoffman and Tom Cruise
Review created: 09/25/01
by: MsHooterville -- a member of Epinions

Pros:
Fantastic story, perhaps best work of both Dustin Hoffman and Tom Cruise.

Cons:
Lots of the F-word until about halfway through.

Now and then there's a rare movie where you wish that two strong, equally essential characters could each win Best Actor Oscars. To me, both Tom Cruise and Dustin Hoffman deserved the top prize for Barry Levinson's Rain Man. Hoffman did take home the statue, and the picture and Levinson did, too. Brother, Can You Spare $3 Million? As Charlie Babbit, a hard and bitter young luxury car hustler in Los Angeles, Cruise shows his most callous and mean-spirited, shallow side when he learns that his estranged father, Sanford Babbitt, dies in Cleveland. Charlie, who thinks he's an only child, returns..

  Ten Minutes to Judge Wapner: Rain Man
Review created: 12/29/07
by: George_Chabot-- a member of Epinions and Advisor in Movies

Pros:
Hoffman, Cruise, Story, Direction

Cons:
Slow moving

Rain Man (1988) Rain Man gives Dustin Hoffman the latitude to play his finest role, which he does so convincingly I cannot imagine the performance being done any better or by anyone else. Tom Cruise as Hoffman's brother also turns in a notable performance and the growth he exhibits during the film's running time is remarkable and heartwarming. Tom Cruise is a gray market auto dealer with a load of Ferraris at the dock side. As he is wondering where he is going to get the customs money he is informed his estranged father died, leaving him an old Buick Roadmaster and a trustee $3 million. When..

  Rain Man: Character Rich
Review created: 08/22/00
by: donnamr -- a member of Epinions

Pros:
Good story, strong performances, humor and drama well balanced

Cons:
???

Some stories are plot based and other are character based. "Rain Man" is a classic example of the latter, rich in character and relationship development. It is a story of two imperfect people: one hampered by true disability, the other by an over-inflated ego. Charlie Babbit is a creep. He's selfish, immature, shallow, worships money, and thinks he's a hot shot. But Charlie's life is about to change. And the instrument of that change is a brother that he never knew he had. Charlie searches out the recipient of his dead father's wealth, and finds Raymond, an autistic older brother, in an...

  Of course, this is definitely, uh, definitely a great movie. Uh-oh.
Review created: 10/01/01
by: dancingpotato -- a member of Epinions

Pros:
Dustin Hoffman's incredible performance. Very good dialogue and direction.

Cons:
The soundtrack blows chunks.

There s an incredibly stupid notion in Hollywood that mentally disabled people are funny. Hell, it s not always in Hollywood. But movies, since the 80 s (or so, I can t remember a movie much older than 1980 that made fun of the mentally disabled), have created stereotypes of retards as comic relief. There s also a myth running around that if an actor/actress plays someone with a mental problem, they re a shoo-in for an Oscar. This rumor claims that playing mentally disabled is easy and an easy way for a rottn actor to get praise. Damn that rumor. I have Rain Man to prove it wrong. (This...

  Rain Man Top Ten
Review created: 09/16/00
by: partners -- a member of Epinions

Pros:
Casting, performances, scenes

Cons:
very few, would have to nit pick

I looked at the "Rain Man" reviews because I wanted to add it to my "Love It" list. I was really surprised to see it only had twenty-five reviews listed. This is one of my all-time favorite movies, and I was expecting to see numerous reviews. The small number, would indicate that there are a lot of people who have not seen this movie. I highly recommend, if you have not seen "Rain Man," that you rent it, the next time you pick up videos. There are so many levels and nuances to this movie, that you can view it time after time, and find something new. It features one of Tom Cruises (Charlie...
