EXCELLENT
By: dave27 Member's photo available | Aug 18, 2001 01:57 PM

’American Beauty’ is an amazing depiction of American life and the generation gap and despair at the passing of life, but at the same time a reassuring promise that the maturity of age has its own benefits.... Read complete review |  Read 1259 times |  Comments (1)

No Beauty Found Here
By: SmashingPumpkins | Jul 30, 2001 10:22 AM

This is one of the most difficult reviews I have ever had to write. First of all because this is a film everyone seems to love so much. But since I found the film to be below the perfection everyone else... Read complete review |  Read 964 times |  Comments (4)

american beauty!!!
By: aphrodisiac77 | Jun 11, 2001 05:39 PM

I don’t use the word beauty that often because I don’t need it as much the other synonyms(too obscene to state here). To me, beauty is usually something the museum crowd loves to throw around to describe... Read complete review |  Read 768 times |  Comments (3)

masterpiece that too in his debut... SAM MENDEZ ru
By: theDUDE | May 31, 2001 11:57 AM

This film is an ’’adult’’ film to be appreciated by people who are in touch with themselves -thinking people who sometimes stop & evaluate their pathetic and dull existence on this planet. The PLOT- ... Read complete review |  Read 3234 times |  Comments (5)

The PLASTIC BAG ILLUSION
By: lora Member's photo available | May 31, 2001 12:00 AM

American Beauty digs into the decaying fabric of the American society...very shallow , skin deep and meaningless. All that’s seen on the exterior is not actually so..yet everything is SO predictable. American... Read complete review |  Read 2813 times |  Comments (7)

American Beauty
By: iloveliverpool | May 27, 2001 04:59 PM

This film received a lot of hype and I felt it only natural that I should see it and boy am I glad I did. The film’s main character is a typical dad and magazine worker Lester Burnham (Kevin Spacey),... Read complete review |  Read 1324 times |  Comments (2)

I landed outside New Excelscior Theatre in mumbai (glad to see that Mumbai offers the chance to watch some of these wonderful movies as a rerun). I entered the movie hall, not knowing what to expect... Read complete review |  Read 1232 times |  Comments (0)

It will blow u away
By: loverboy4u_17 Member's photo available | Apr 19, 2001 12:31 PM

This movie blew me away. It puts society’s definitions of Normalcy and Beauty under heavy scrutiny. What appears ordinary is often captivating; what appears unique is often forlorn; what appears powerful... Read complete review |  Read 1082 times |  Comments (3)

The Sad Little Life Of Lester Burnham
By: minxette | Apr 07, 2001 02:25 AM

’’American Beauty’’ is a totally unforgettable movie. It rightfully won 5 Oscars and 6 Baftas, including Best Picture in each. I was not too enthusiastic about seeing it, but I was dragged kicking and... Read complete review |  Read 772 times |  Comments (0)

Reality of Social Chaos
By: skmm Member's photo available | Feb 20, 2001 10:07 AM

A scenic suburban town, the streets lined with maple trees, the first shot of the movie American Beauty, is very placid and looking harmless. The image is a very desirable one for any town. But... Read complete review |  Read 1477 times |  Comments (1)

Anti American dream?
By: sadsack | Nov 27, 2000 04:17 PM

The title is highly misleading, in fact much of the movie is a sad commentary about the grime in the moral fibre of modern day society and a lot less about ’beauty’. The story starts off, simply enough,... Read complete review |  Read 2415 times |  Comments (0)

What a beauty!?
By: farid Star Writer | Nov 27, 2000 01:59 PM

American Beauty is ironic, humorous and spits at you in the face. For life is small and the purpose large. A man is a mere tool for carrying forward God’s plan towards the mere-mortal end. Kevin Spacey... Read complete review |  Read 648 times |  Comments (1)

If you thought Baywatch is america think again. This movie bring to the front the very fabric of american society. At the same time making is as surreal to make on think its exagerated. Which it ofcourse... Read complete review |  Read 589 times |  Comments (2)
