I thought it was an OK movie.  It was cute, humorous, quirky in some parts.  It has a deeper meaning though, in my opinion.\nWe're always trying to fast forward through life, without savoring each moment we DO have with our loved ones.  He was lucky, he got a second chance.....because it was a dream.\nWe don't.  So don't waste your lives focusing & worrying about work, etc!!!  There's SO much more!!!

The movie was good. It was well-done and directed attention to interesting aspects of discrimination. \n\nThe song performance at the oscar was however not so great.

I once read an article by Jonathon Ross about John Holmes, and in it he described a pathetic figure whose celebrity status in the arena of porn deteriorated into a life of drug abuse, betrayal, gang involvement and murder...oh, and his eventual death due to Aids. What a great premise for a film!\n\nI enjoyed Wonderland and was gripped all the way though.It was Holmes' dependence on drugs that meant he was eventually dropped from the porn industry, he could no longer perform or 'get it up'. From there his life spiralled and this is where Wonderland starts.\n\nThe story is not only presented in a very factual way, ( nearly every police statement and event occurred as shown ), but the pace in unrelenting and the acting convincing. Kilmer does a good job on Holmes - a bit like his Jim Morrison, he gets the druggie, spaced out feel just right.\n\nThe re-telling of events through different perspectives is also impressive, if not original and although there is no real tension in the film this is not a criticism. This is not supposed to be a suspense film or a thriller, it is much better than that. It is a true account of lives which interest us and which most of us have difficulty comprehending - apologies to drug dealers, murderers and porn stars.\n\nWhen the actual murders occur they are brutal and dramatic, interspersing real footage of the murder scene into the action. Gory and fascinating, and i'm sure most of you do the pause or slow-mo run after.\n\nI'm a sucker for information being handed out at the end of films and Wonderland doesn't disappoint. We find out about all the main protagonists and of course we all know what happened to John. Full credit to the director, I was waiting for this film to be made since 1988 and am not disappointed!

"If you could see what I hear".  \n\nA fantastic movie about the life of entertainer Tom Sullivan.\n\nI laughed, I cried. I loved it. But not many others did.\n\nIt stars Marc Singer (Beastmaster and televisions "V"), Shari Belafonte and RH Thompson\n\nYou might find info on it on IMDB.  It was on video many many years ago, but I haven't been able to find it on DVD.  \n\nThanks for making me bring that up again!  If you get a chance, its a wonderful watch!

It was a pretty good movie,\nwith similar twists and surprises as the first.\nI personally think it wasn't as good as the first,\nbut definitely a must see for the fans of the original!

Funny you should bring that up. I just saw it a few hours ago. My personal views on the movie... Well, I though it was mostly funny. I just don't like that much cussing. I think it's kind of embarassing. Jack Black and Kyle Gass wrote almost all the songs in the movie. I thought the basic idea of the movie was interesting. And I didn't know Tim Robbins was going to have a cameo in it.

I have seen it and all I can say is I will never date any Japanese woman if I get divorced.  That has got to be the most disturbing movie a guy who is dating can see.\n\nI did like the movie though.  It was very sick and twisted, but very well done.

Yeah i agree. It was very provocative in terms of the costant focus of the complexities of racial conflict, and the idea of examining fear and bigotry from multiple perspectives.Awesome movie!

I saw this title on digital cable featured on On Demand. I wasn't sure if I wanted to watch it so late at night. But your feelings towards this movie has intrigued me enough to actually watch it this time! I have a book about gay rights and equality which I have yet to read. May even mention Paragraph 175...When I find out the name of the book I'll post here

It was pretty good...it was a good story, but got a little slow in parts.  I enjoyed it though, the French guy in it is a fabulous actor, you really hated him.  I love a good villain.\nI think it was worth the watch...I'd watch it again.

Jejejeje! I loved that movie! Seriously! Still, when I don't have a lot on my mind the scene where Danny got shot jumps into my head and makes me really sad. That scene was more disturbing to me than the curb scene. Ed Norton was so amazing. He got the part exactly! The emotions you see in his face are unbelievable. \n\nShalabra as you know these are the scenes that made me cry:\n\n1. The store scene\n2. The curb scene\n3. The rape scene in prison\n4. The scene when Danny and Derek take down the Nazi stuff on the wall\n5. The scene when Danny gets killed\n6. The deleted scene when the two skinheads harass the old lady and she gets sad...but I think that was more because I was still emotional from Danny's death.\n\nAnd Shalabra...answer me please...the thing that bugs me a lot is that I'm scared Derek will go back to being a skin head. I mean partly why he became one in the first place was because his dad was killed by a black guy...so now that his brother was killed by a black guy, I'm scared his anger will rise again and he'll go back to being one.  That thought scared me more than anything...even though it's just a movie.

I did see it and it was cute.  Like you, I don't see many movies because they are too expensive, but we took our kids to see it.  While it was 'animated' the storyline was not geared (HAHA!) toward kids.  \n\nMy suggestion...wait for the video.

I saw the movie last night and it is one of the best movies I have seen in a long time. I totally agree with you.  I remember the day he died well and gave it 4 out of 4 stars.  My brother who was 3 gave it 4/4 and my 16 year old nephew gave it 3/4.  Do yourself a favor and see the movie. I am also shocked by the vehemence and hatred expressed for people once revered and loved. Society has declined.\n\nJFK and particularly RFK had a profound effect on my life. I was a teenager when Bobby Kennedy was killed. At age ten, I, on my own, went to JFK headquarters and got and passed out campaign fliers. His book, Profiles in courage, influenced deeply the rearing of my children. I taught them to always have the moral courage to stand up for what they believed even if they \nwere the only one or were ostracized. To stand up for good and the underdog, to be non conformist and dare to be different, I taught them buy having the courage to speak up boldly even if they were alone, they might give someone else who feels the same way but who is too scared or shy to speak up the courage to speak up too.\n\nI wanted to go into politics and read thick political books like "American Democracy in World Prospective" while peers read romance novels. (I got married instead subsequently.) But it was Bobby who captured my heart and soul. I memorized many of his speeches and some I still use and recall the words though it has been nearly 40 years ago.  He so inspired me with his deeds and his words. He wrote me a letter. \n\nConcerning the movie, although I was disappointed there was not more focus on his life and footage at points during the movie, in the end, the film triumphed tying it all together.  The film maintained my interests and had some great performances. But it is the emotions which it wrought within me at the end which cause me to give it a 10 and call it one of the best movies \nI have seen recently.  \n\nI was very surprised at the extreme emotions that cursed through me, particularly at the end of the film. First the anticipation of what was coming caused me to tense up. Watching that final night play out like I saw so many years ago brought me right back to the moment it really happened. \n\nI could not stop crying.  Indeed, I kept putting my face in my hands and really crying hard. I had to stifle back sobs that threatened to escape and embarrass me.  I could not stop wiping the tears so it brought me back to that moment when America saw its 3rd assassination. Those words that so inspired and called us forth to be a compassionate, just, peaceful nation that strived to mends bridges and really look at how we spent our limited time and what we might accomplish would never again be there to guide and remind us of what a better world we might have.  With him, those hopes seemed to die. It wasn't long when the wealthy elite began to escalate destruction of our country. \n\nBoth JFK and RFK had the unique ability to really make us look at ourselves and call forth the best within ourselves. When we lost these leaders of insight, intelligence, and empathy, we as a country lost a lot..our very souls and trust. It was a time in history of men of courage, idealism, and good mores that soon fled from all but those who still recall that "each time a man stands up for an ideal, acts to improve the lot of others and strikes out against injustice, he sends forth a tiny ripple of hope and that ripple \ncrossing a million centers of energy and daring can build a wall that can sweep away the mightiest walls of oppression and resistance" and those who are mindful that "few will have the greatness to bend history itself but each of us can work to change a small portions of history and within those acts will be written the history of this generation." \n\n"It is from numberless, diverse acts of courage", he said. I didn't want to leave the theatre, but to reflect on all I was feeling. I continued to cry for
