Leave your thoughts about The Lightship.
| Ozus' World Movie ReviewsDennis SchwartzIt's noted for the inventive performance of Robert Duvall. |
| DVDTalk.comScott WeinbergMuch of the narrative is airy at best -- deadly dull at worst. |
| User ReviewGeraint Owell umn just seen this movie 4 the 1st time n think that this is a good movie 2 watch...its got a good cast of actors/actressess throughout this movie...i think that robert duvall, klaus maria brandauer, badja djola, william forsythe play good parts throughout this movie...i think that the director of this Drama, Mystery & Suspense movie had done a good job of directing this movie as you never know what 2 expect throughout this movie its an enjoyable movie 2 watch n its worth a watch |
| User ReviewJamie TAs a psychological thriller, The Lightship has its tense entertainment moments, but the narrative line takes so many detours that the problem is trying to figure out the non sequiturs as they surface out of nowhere. |
| User ReviewBrody MWhen I found this movie on VHS I was SO happy!!! I LOVE when I find movies I've never heard of before so I couldn't wait to get home & watch it.After watching it I see why I've never heard of it before.Robert Duvall & his 2 goons reminded me of the characters in The Ladykillers Even though Robert Duvalls Caspary was a psychotic nutjob, there are times where you can't help but almost laugh at him.His character is just way over the top.The movie is OK watching it once but after watching it once, I don't think it's something you'll ever watch again.The good thing about The Lightship is I never knew what a lightship was till I watched The Lightship |
| User ReviewChris Mlaughably awful. only people who like soap operas would be hooked |
