BASIC - MOVIE REVIEW

HE SAID:

A classic whodunnit, where a person who is hated by everyone, dies. All the people who hate this person become suspects. There are so many twists in the tale that it becomes difficult to hold on to the plot thread after a while. This movie is still a very good thriller. The actors have done a fantastic job. John Travolta is his brash overconfident self. Samuel Jackson kicks ass as the man everyone loves to hate. Connie Nielsen is excellent as the local officer being passed over in favour of an outsider. Timothy Daly of Wings fame is adequate.

All in all an explosive movie. On a scale of 1 to 10, 1 being the worst and 10 being the best, I
give this movie a 8.

SHE SAID:

John Travolta is cute and he is such a great actor too. But for his presence this movie would have been one more loser consigned to the hell of late night reruns.

Worth a watch once. On a scale of 1 to 10, 1 being the worst and 10 being the best, I give this
movie a 4.
