Seen it over a dozen times and it never fails to move me.

Prince at his best.

Hard to describe this plot w/o sounding kinky, but first movie that ever made me think spankings were a good thing!

Beautiful and heartbreaking, this moving tale will stay with you.

I didn't see it i 3D but nonetheless this was a great movie. The plot is sweet but smart and the characters wholly engaging and even the villians are likable!

Interesting but not your standard movie fare. The Savages takes a sometimes unflattering, very realistic look into the emotionally devoid existences of two siblings, Jon & Wendy, who shared an apparently traumatic childhood, and are unexpectedly called upon to come take charge of their mentally failing, elderly father.

During the course of his ever-declining health the siblings sometimes argue fiercely about him but both, in their own way, continue to see to their father's care. Though never does this father show appreciation or gratitude during his brief lucid moments, yet does seem to realize during one that he has only reaped what he sowed. It's a difficult, sad movie to watch and I'm unsure whether to recommend to the average viewer.

This hasn't any Hollywood flash or slick feel. It's almost too real, too raw, I guess. But if you appreciate that in a film, you'll like this, I did. I give it a B+.

Outstanding direction and amazing performances can do the impossible in a movie; transplant the viewer to another time and place. Milk covers the few years that Harvey Milk ran for and secured a position in S.F.'s local government in order to effect changes towards gays and lesbians in local & national legislature. He was the first (openly) gay elected official in the United States and stood ready to make great strides in the fight for equality of gays & lesbians when his life was tragically taken.
