TheBlueHairedLawyer Don't Talk to Strangers has everything in it you wouldn't expect to see. The story is basic enough; a mother divorces her controlling alcoholic husband and meets a new man, but when her son goes missing in a new town, both her new husband and ex-lover get together to hunt down the kidnappers. There's a strangely hilarious "veggieburger" scene. There's a fight where a lawyer named Huddleston gets attacked by the controlling ex-husband (I've never heard the name Huddleston before). There's a mom with some crazy driving skills. And there's a stereotypical fat county sheriff. Holy cow, why aren't movies today like this one? Well, another interesting thing is the appearances of two actors both in popular 1990's television shows: Dave "Squatch" Ward (Ned Bell from Disney's So Weird) plays the minor but distinctive role of a character named Tiny. A younger William B. Davis (the Cigarette Smoking Man from The X-Files) plays the role of the unfortunate lawyer named Huddleston in the movie's intro scene.There isn't much else to say, although Don't Talk to Strangers seems to stand out from other movies in the same genres (Lifetime-type movies). It had decent soundtrack, good acting (although the blonde child with the bowl-cut, he was awful) and it manages to hold your interest 'till the end, not bad for a movie of its type, although I don't see it winning an award any time soon.
ccthemovieman-1 This was decent film, not worth getting totally excited about, but still very much recommend. The problem is that if you haven't seen this film by now, you probably won't unless someone puts it out on DVD. It's been over 10 years since I saw this, and the photography was good enough to make want to see this again, this time on a widescreen DVD format.For a film that isn't well-known and stars an unknown actress (along with the known Pierce Brosnan), this was a well-acted, nicely-filmed movie. It movies well and has some nice twists to it, guaranteed to keep the first-time viewer interested. It will keep you guessing.Terry O'Quinn played the best role in here, in my opinion. Reed did a nice job of acting but I didn't care for her persona. Kudos to Richard Leiterman for his photography.What I didn't understand was the movie's "R" rating. There was very little profanity in here, very little blood and no nudity. What gives? It did read "R" on my VHS tape.
MaxHush The first thing I'll say about the film is this. Pierce. Yes, the mighty mighty Pierce. Don't be fooled though, just because of Pierce factor it doesn't mean that this movie is good, far from it infact. From Pierce demonstrating his culinary skills at making vegeburgers, to Pierce being violently assulted while sitting on a stool eating said vegeburgers this movie is poor, and believe me, it could have been better but for the directing. Pierces acting is nothing short of grade A, but the entire film seems pushed along quickly, and that, combined with the bogstandard plot makes it seem like the director wanted the maximum amount of Pierce in the movie, hoping that that alone would hold up the movie, sadly it didn'tVerdict - Bogstandard plot(0) + rushed scenes(0) + Peirce(4) > 4/10
Sissel This movie had a surprising end! But I loved it anyways! A nice movie to relax with...especially when my fav. actor Pierce Brosnan is in it!!
