Movie Reviews

Hartford Courant - 8/10 by Malcolm JohnsonFrankie Faison comes the closest to Vonnegut's spirit in his bold caricature of the Black Fuehrer of Harlem.
SPLICEDWire - 8/10 by Rob BlackwelderWonderfully mysterious and emotionally draining.
EmanuelLevy.Com - 7/10 by Emanuel LevyNick Nolte is excellent in Keith Gordon's ambitious but flawed adaptation of Vonnegut's fascinating novel.
Chicago Tribune - 6/10 by Gene SiskelDirector Keith Gordon emphasizes the speeches more than other issues, and his otherwise thoughtful movie needlessly romanticizes hate.
User Review - 10/10 by xGary XThe only great Vonnegut film, but damn, it is REALLY great.
User Review - 10/10 by Brandon JI've never seen a film that evoked so much empathy in me for such a complex and conflicted character. Nick Nolte doesn't get enough credit for what a courageous thespian he has been. It is also amazing how such a dark film is capable of evoking humor about its subject without treading into the ridiculous. It's always refreshing to see such a grave film not take itself so seriously. But I assue this may have a lot to do with the masterful post-modern writing of Kurt Vonnegut.
User Review - 10/10 by jeremyFollowed the original novel better than any movie i think ive ever seen. beautiful and tragic work.
User Review - 10/10 by Ian Sone of the greatest book to screen adaptations ever done, i need to finish the book, i'm currently finishing the book
User Review - 10/10 by Brett SI had seen Mother Night because Sheryl Lee was in it, & it was worth seeing. Nolte did a great job, although I think Sheryl acted him off the screen in my opinion. I loved the gritty black & white prison scenes & I loved the ending. Overall, its a brilliant film.
User Review - 10/10 by Natasha DThe only great Vonnegut film, but damn, it is REALLY great.
