Average Rating: 
Rating:  - Surprisingly good film.
I was channel surfing and found this one. I was sucked in and am buying my own copy. Albert Brooks and John Goodman are 'lock' actors for good performances, but who really surprised me was Leelee Sobieski. She shows surprising range of emotion and ability for someone who is very hit-and-miss on film. Case Comparison: "Joan of Arc" vs. "The Messenger", produced pretty close together in time, in which she is outperformed by Milla Jovovich by an embarrassing margin. It is for this very reason that ... Read More

Learning to dance.
Climbing a mountain.
Fear of the unknown.
Fear of death, fear of life.
The movie is this and more; full of humor, adventures, mystery, surprises. It is one fine movie, purchased lots of copies and gifted friends and then hear how they've shown it to their daughters, their friends, their small gatherings. Buy it.
Rating: - i never buy dvd. tv is enought but once or twice i do
Only now and then i watch tv, but when i do i make sure i don't waste my time, i had 2 movies choice, and i choosed this one, but the sort of abstract start almost made me swich to the other, i was glad i didn't.

This movie had been recommended to me. After viewing, I can see why. Although there was no acclaim, this story is a wonderful portrayal of not fitting in and trying to find your path in life, all it takes is someone to believe in you.
Rating: - I just watched this twice. I will watch it again!
I always like Leelee Sobieiski. In this she was perfection. Albert Brooks is always okay but I loved him in this. Carol Kane, Mary Kay Place, Michael McKean and John Goodman were the throw away characters. They all are wonderful in their parts but the movie is really alive when Leelee and Albert are on screen together. Great humour, great pathos, great sexual tension but no sex. What is it about? People. Think a Ghost World in which everyone is actually so much better off for having met. If you need a ... Read More
