Summary - Perfect 5.0
I’ve read many Stephen King novels and am a huge fan. I have not, however, read Misery. The movie makes me want to very much.
Acting - Perfect 5.0
Kathy Bates. Excellent psychopath. James Caan. Convincing torture victim. 1 + 1 = 2.
Male Stars - Perfect 5.0
Female Stars - Perfect 5.0
Female Costars - Perfect 5.0
Male Costars - Perfect 5.0
Film - Great 4.0
A very good, and effectively scary film. A masterpiece, if you will. Truly frightening dialogue makes Misery a truly frightening film. It hits you in the face, shocks yo, terrifies you, and repulses you. (All in a good way…)
Direction - Great 4.0
Dialogue - Perfect 5.0
Music - Good 3.0
Visuals - Good 3.0
Edge - Risqué 2.5
Even though the film is bloodless, it is very sadistic and brutal. A scene involves hobbling. Don’t know what that is? Maybe that’s for the better. Not for those with a weak stomach.
Sex Innocent 1.0
Violence Monstrous 5.0
Rudeness Polite 1.5
Reality - Surreal 2.2
Not hat unrealistic. Torture is portrayed in realistic, gritty fashion.
