Quaid and Caviezel are explosive!

by Bodytype , Nov 19 '00
Pros: Great plot so you won't find yourself yawning.
Cons: Language can be a problem.
When this movie was released in the theater, I thought about seeing it, but never actually got around to it. Luckily for me, my mom's fiance' had seen it and my mom wanted to see it so we rented it. I didn't expect for it to be such a great movie,...

No Problems with this Reception

by s2roberts , Dec 10 '00
Pros: constructive plot
Cons: slightly predictable
Convinced by my buddies begging, and my other pals previewing, it was "Frequency" that made my Saturday evening an authentic Blockbuster night. Director Gregory Hoblit's unique creation of a time bondage spurs thirty six year old cop John...

The best film of it's type ever...

by buddonahue , May 11 '00
Pros: This one is strong on all counts
Cons: The film ends
The first trailer I saw for this movie was back around Christmas time, and when I saw it I immediately knew it had great potential to be one of the best "sci/fi-time travel" movies ever made.

Frequency exceeded my highest...

The best thing to happen to ham radios since transistors

by ursic , Apr 27 '00
Pros: Good story which plays out well
Cons: No real surprises, Quaid's accent could have used some work
Frequency: The mother sunspot of all time allows a young man to speak with his father on his ham radio. Nothing strange about that - you can talk with people around the world. What makes these conversations unique are that dear old dad has been dead...

Turn on the Frequency

by bepstein , May 08 '00
Pros: Exciting, moving, drama
Cons: Concept hard to believe
Friends wanted to see Frequency...I didn't know anything about it, but I went along. You have to see it with an open mind, none of this "it could never happen" business. That will just get in the way of your enjoying this fast-paced and...

Fine Tuning

by MK2K , May 05 '00
Pros: Decent.
Cons: Not impressive.
6,000 years of progress since the beginning of recorded history, and we end up talking to the past on ham radio.

All right. So it's a real dumb idea. So the inherent trouble of talking to the past on ham radio is that ham radio really...

Tune in for a great flick

by prophetZarquon , May 26 '00
Pros: Clever concept, both drama and action
Cons: Bipolar tone, contrived ending
"Frequency" is widely hailed as the first truly good movie of the year, and it's been compared to everything from "The Sixth Sense" to "Back to the Future" to "Ghost." Some say it's science fiction, others drama,...

I hope this is a runaway hit.

by rebelgrrl , Apr 29 '00
Pros: Well-written and directed, constantly entertaining.
Cons: A couple of unnecessary subplots.
As I have been generally displeased with the choices of movies that Hollywood has decided to give us within the last 6 months or so, I didn't think that Frequency, a self-professed sci-fi movie, would be something that I would want to watch. I hadn't...

Tuned in

by Diversity646 , Apr 27 '00
Pros: Intriguing and enveloping...The time elements leant much to the plot. Brilliantly executed
Cons: A slow start, but once the story finds it's pace, LOOK OUT!!!
Can a critic safely say "Wow" without being misconstrued...?

Just about once a decade, a movie comes along that takes us places where we've never been before. The '80's had "Back to the Future". The '90's showed us a...

On the Right Wavelength

by zenda , Apr 16 '00
Pros: very original script, terrific use of direction and editing
Cons: the last sappy 2 or 3 minutes
I have been very anxious to see this film. The trailers I have seen for it have been very intriguing. And I like Dennis Quaid, he is a very personable actor. So when I had the chance to go to a sneak preview of "Frequency", I went.

Ever Wish Your Life Had Turned Out Differently?

by jandjwicker , Apr 29 '00
Pros: Good acting and real life fire scenes.
Cons: Far fetched and science fiction type plot.
Well that's what Johnny wished for his life. He didn't realize that the problems that he was having in his life was a result of dealing with this wish. He was unhappy with his life, his girlfriend had left him, and he was drinking and smoking too much!...

Tune in for Excitement

by berkman2 , Nov 23 '00
Pros: Non-stop excitement
Cons: Not for "reality cynics"
My husband is always complaining that I inevitably find the worst movies to rent, but for once, I proved him wrong! In fact, after watching Frequency alone, I immediately brought him in and we watched it again together. I knew nothing about the plot of...

Frequency- Great father and son movie!!

by superbaker12 , Dec 07 '00
Pros: Heartwarming, and some special effects
Cons: I didn't see any
We originally rented this movie thinking that it would be a good sci-fi thriller--It was, and much, much more. There are not a lot of sci-fi thrillers out there that brings a father and son together in quite the manner that this one does. If you're a dad...

Amazing

by heb , Apr 30 '00
Pros: Everything! It is a great film. GO SEE IT :o)
Cons: Not enough press about it, no one knows anything about it.
If you had the chance to stop something from happening in your past, would you do it? Yes, of course you would, who wouldn't? But, would changing have consequences you hadn't even conceived of in your present? Once again, Yes. This is what...

not quite as expected (and that's good)

by doakley64 , Dec 14 '00
Pros: Neatly packaged movie
Cons: timeline problems at end
I have been a sci-fi fan for many years, having read a tremendous number of books and watched a personal plethora of movies. I did not anticipate that this movie would be a solid movie, and do not believe that the trailers do it justice.
