Pros: Cast, script, surreality, music, humour, pretty much everything really. Cons: Nothing I can think of.
Benny & Joon is a very sweet romantic comedy starring not only the brilliant and famous Johnny Depp but also the supremely talented though far less well-known actress Mary Stuart Masterson. Add in Aidan Quinn and Juliette Moore, ...
Not every film has to blow things up or have laugh out loud, absurd comedy. Sometimes, a film that’s sweet and poignant can tough your heart in a way you didn’t expect. In this day and age where so many parents have children with ...
Pros: Decent acting. Some funny moments. Cons: This move isn’t sure whether it’s safe to comedically portray the mentally handicapped.
For me this was one of those movies you just never got around to seeing, even though you thought you might enjoy it. Perhaps I waited too long, since I wasn’t as impressed as I’d hoped I’d be.
Pros: Good soundtrack Cons: Unrealistic depiction of mental illness in a weird combination with comedy
One of my friends loaned me Benny & Joon. She simply gushed over the movie’s merits. She told me it was one of her favorite movies, and she keeps asking me if I’ve watched it yet. Now that I’ve watched it, I’m working on what to say to her...
Pros: The plot, The cast, The song, Everything! Cons: Nothing. Just a perfect movie!
When I wake up, well I know I'll be the man who wakes up next to you. When I go out, I know I'll will be the man who goes along with you. If I get drunk, well I know I'll be the one who gets drunk next to you, and if I haver, Yeah I know I'll be the man...
Pros: Johnny Depp, Aidan Quinn, Mary Stuart Masterson Cons: None, really.
I've wanted to write a review for this movie for a long time, but have always put it off. In finally looking at it, I've come to the conclusion that I've been afraid to review it for fear of not doing it justice.
My girlfriend kept nagging to see this movie. She kept bugging me, telling me how great it was and I just had to see it. So finally one Sunday she brought the video over and we watched it together.
Some movies you can just watch once....NOT this one! From the opening credits and the first beat of the music to the very end of this movie you will completely entertained! This is one of my all-time favorites! This is a story of Benny (Aiden Quinn),...
"Benny and Joon" is one of my favorite movies ever. It's a sweet, quirky love story that is alternately hilarious and touching, about two couples who finally figure out that they are perfect for each other.
Pros: All of the characters charm their way into your heart. Cons: I love it too much to even think of a bad word about it.
My motto is "If Johnny Depp's in it, it's got to be worth a watch" and never is that more true than when speaking of Benny and Joon. This film touched my heart and the hearts of those who I have shared it with. I love this film so much that Benny, Joon ...
This is a movie that you will want to watch over and over again. Aiden Quinn, Mary Stuart Masterson, and Johnny Depp are a perfect cast. This is one of my favorite quirky movies.
If you are a Buster Keeton fan you will love Johnny Depp's...
What a fantastic movie to add to one's collection. This movie is packed with emotion. The main theme is love, and in several ways. It shows the love of a family member towards another, and what we will self-sacrifice in the name of that family love....
