One Hour Photo - Robin Williams in Another Great Role

by dragonfire88 dragonfire88 is a Top Reviewer on Epinions in Movies, Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 50, Oct 02 '02
Pros: Robin Williams. Unique plot.
Cons: Eriq La Salle
I recently made a trip to Columbus with my friend. We spent most of the day there. We decided to see a movie while there. Several movies have never made it here that we have wanted to see. We had been wanting to see One Hour Photo, but...

Hi. I'm Sy. The Photo Guy. 'One Hour Photo'

by Vormancian Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 500, Dec 11 '02
Pros: Robin Williams. Excellent direction...mostly.
Cons: Occasionally overshoots.
If you look at any study of what people (who aren’t or haven’t been in long-term marital relationships*) are scared of, high on the list (if not at the top) you’ll find ‘being alone’. You know the alone those people are referring to....

One Hour Photo - or: "Why I Bought a Digital Camera"

by millinocket millinocket is a Lead on Epinions in Movies, Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 200, Feb 27 '03
Pros: Williams, screenplay, direction, photography
Cons: Score
I anxiously awaited the release of One Hour Photo for months. Having seen Robin Williams as creepy guy in Insomnia and being a total sucker for a good thriller, I was completely set to love this movie. So I finally got my little red...

Disturbing Developments

by pmills1210 pmills1210 is a Top Reviewer on Epinions in Movies, Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 500, Sep 30 '02
Pros: One of Robin Williams's best performances
Cons: It may be too easy to figure out what happened
Photo development isn’t just a way for Seymour “Sy” Parrish to make a living. It is his life. His work has reached the point of obsession, and it has begun to manifest itself in subtle ways, but impossible for us to not notice. Sy (Robin...

One Hour Photo: Draw your own conclusions...

by flamepillar Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 50, Apr 22 '03
Pros: Great direction, good job with the colors, Robin Williams is the God of acting!
Cons: Slow moving, disturbing, not for the faint of brain.
Aspiring photographer that I am, I always wondered what it would be like to work behind the counter, to see all the pictures that the people of our local community took. Ever since Sandra Bullock got her job as a photo developer in Hope Floats ...

Do you have any naked pics of your wife? Would you like to buy some?

by George_Chabot George_Chabot is a Top Reviewer on Epinions in Movies, Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 50, Aug 19 '08
Pros: Robin Williams moxie to even show up
Cons: The story; Direction; Robin Williams performance; it lasts much more than one hour
One Hour Photo (2002) First off, I loved Robin Williams when he was television’s Mork from Ork. I thought he was obnoxious, but I could understand him wanting to get next to that fine girl, Mindy. But since he got off the idiot box he has become ...

It could happen to you: Lean-N-Mean

by carl_lazarevic Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 1000, Dec 05 '03
Pros: score, cinematography, acting.
Cons: beginning and end.
One Hour Photo sees Robin Williams playing a lonely photo developer named Sy. Sy's life is so lonely that he escapes into a fantasy world where he's a member of one of the families that use his services. However his whole fantasy has been based ...

One Hour Photo: The Next Oscar Nod For Robin Williams

by kristinafh Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 50, Jul 25 '02
Pros: Another terrific acting side of Robin Williams.
Cons: Eric La Salle is a stinker of an actor.
I can't remember the first time that I saw the trailer for One Hour Photo. I'm not really into thrillers but when I saw this trailer, I knew that I would go see the film. Personally, I think that Robin Williams is one of the most...

Mark Romanek’s One hour Photo (2002)

by artbyjude Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 500, Mar 28 '03
Pros: Williams Performance, Cinematography, script-except the ending
Cons: the ending, and ewwwww!!!!
Despite Robin William’s brilliant performance, I can understand why the Academy Awards bypassed this movie. I am surprised that they bypassed this movie, but the reason for me is simple. If your overwhelming response to this film is to be put on...

One Hour Photo - think twice before you take in those nude shots

by CyndiA Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 50, Apr 22 '04
Pros: Odd thriller. Character study. Robyn Williams does a great job in the role.
Cons: Don't expect physical action or predictable story lines.
I felt like I was in one of those old Twilight Zone shows when I went in the local chain drugstore to pick up my photos, and the counter guy went back to look under the initial of my last name when I hadn’t told him my name. When I noticed he was ...

One Hour Photo: A Fine Print In Need Of A Better Finish

by NFP , Sep 16 '02
Pros: Williams' outstanding performance, brilliant cinematography, buildup.
Cons: Conclusion. You, sir, are no Alfred Hitchcock.
Director Mark Romanek’s much-awaited chiller One Hour Photo is a fascinating and spine-tingling exercise in bleached still-life, not unlike a series of snapshots on a CD run through a PhotoShop program until they are color-adjusted to be...

Why I only use digital cameras...

by hugh_u_kidden , Sep 07 '04
Pros: Robin Williams serves up the best dramatic performance
Cons: The pace plods a little
I'm an amateur photographer of sorts; and in past years have been somewhat successful in capturing photos of rare subject matter and sufficient enough quality to actually sell a few. Well, except for my most famous, or rather, infamous print, Fly on a ...

"No One Ever Takes A Photograph Of Something They Want To Forget"

by headlessparrot Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 1000, Apr 29 '03
Pros: Great direction, writing and acting. Cool DVD extras and other stuff
Cons: The ending almost ruins the rest of this great movie
I don’t normally watch movies all that often, which is why, even after two years at Epinions, I’ve only written two film reviews (neither of which I’m particularly fond of in retrospect). I prefer to exist in a controlled environment where...

every breath you take, every smile you fake

by voxpoptart Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 1000, Apr 08 '03
Pros: Good acting (great in Robin Williams's case), expressionist lighting, passionately empathetic script.
Cons: It's a couple of sentences too long.
Given the poor critical reception One Hour Photo faced, I've been pleased and surprised to glance lightly over existing Epinions reviews of it and see lots of favorable feedback. My review should give the details of fewer plot events than the...

Sy's Sad Kodachrome Life

by Ynmaeven , Dec 11 '02
Pros: Great suspense. It builds in intensity until the shocking end.
Cons: Some less-than-three dimensional characterizations, but I think it's intentional.
I know, you have seen a lot of movies with Robin Williams and he has been hysterically funny...manic almost, in his portrayals of comic characters. He played in comedies like "Flubber", "The Bird Cage", "Jumanji", "Hook", "Mrs. Doubtfire", "Moscow on...
