Most helpful review Confessions of a Dangerous Mind

  • The truth is out there ?

    Rated - 4.0 stars  
    By Paul Roberts from Warrington, England , 06 Feb 2004

    [Highly rated reviewer]

    Confessions of a dangerous mind is based on the 'true' story of Chuck Barris, the godfather of banal television, with shows like 'The Dating Game' and 'the Gong show'. But Chuck was more than that. He was hired by a shadowy figure to become a contract hitman for the C.I.A. Truth of fiction? You decide. Testaments from friends and colleague are interspersed during the film to add balance and possibly mislead.

    Directed by George Clooney, for a first time effort this is impressive and George has obviously been studying his contemporaries carefully. The lighting is superb and adds a distinct quality to the film. Sam Rockwell in the lead role is brilliant as the neurotic Barris and is ably assisted by his co-stars including Drew Barrymore, Julia Roberts and Clooney himself.

    This is well worth a rental. Watch and enjoy.

  • Rubbish film

    Rated - 1.0 star  
    By a customer , 22 Apr 2013
    Couldn't see why people had rated the film so highly. Was totally disappointed. Didn't find it at all funny. Turned off after 45 minutes

  • ....ING RUBBISH!

    Rated - 0.5 stars  
    By Fenlandia (11 reviews) , 09 Apr 2013
    Continual swearing abused my ears. Gave up after 5 mins. A tanker load of rubbish. Articulate scripts have died. Audiences should expect better, then they would be given it.
