The Walker /Walker/ movie comments

Date: 2008-01-13 17:45:23 User: AleshaWencen This is easily one of the best movies of the year. Woody Harrelson should pick up an Oscar nod for this role, which could play as a companion piece to Paul Schrader's earlier film "American Gigolo". Saw this at the Toronto Film Festival and observed that Schrader is an overlooked American heavyweight of the cinema, who still makes intelligent pictures for adults. The movie is suspenseful, but not because of artifice, because of the corner that the Woody Harrelson character finds himself in and how that triggers a stirring of is own moral code. I love that about this movie, how the plot is strong on it's own terms but that we get this added layer with the character study. It's a very timely movie too, what with the Senator Craig thing of this past summer, the movie is the only picture of our times to address the hypocrisy of the "Moral Values" brigade in Washington. First rate all the way.   You have to register to leave a comment...   Back to the The Walker movie download page
