Leave your thoughts about Continental Divide.
| Chicago Sun-TimesRoger EbertThe movie itself is fun: goofy, softhearted, fussy, sometimes funny, and with the sort of happy ending that columnists like to find for their stories and hardly ever find themselves. |
| The New York TimesJanet MaslinMr. Apted has made this a sweet, engaging movie that audiences will very much want to see end well. |
| Washington PostRita KempleyContinental Divide should have marked Belushi's tentative, encouraging first step towards quirkier, more substantive roles and films. Instead it, and Neighbors were more of a dead end. |
| Combustible CelluloidJeffrey M. AndersonIt's very slight and grows less interesting as Belushi's character is tamed, but it's a rare, welcome look a the late, great comedian's romantic side. |
| Spirituality and PracticeFrederic and Mary Ann BrussatContinental Divide charts a love relationship that is hobbed by work. |
| User ReviewAfonso AThis was the movie that proved that John Belushi wasn't just a comedy guy, he was indeed an actor. Used to watch this on tape when i was sick as a child, the story always made me feel better. |
| User Revieworiginal Blue Army!Just love this one its funny and has romance in it |
| User ReviewJ.r. RThis was the movie that proved that John Belushi wasn't just a comedy guy, he was indeed an actor. Used to watch this on tape when i was sick as a child, the story always made me feel better. |
| User ReviewLeslie Gto me this movie showed what a gifted actor John really was. You can't help but fall in love with him when you watch it. just a shame we could not see him develop more in his roles. |
| User ReviewJedidiah CA forever favourite. JB's last film. Myfavourite. Not your typical Belushi, love the nature V city thing. |
