    A Masterpeice

    In my book, maybe controversially, Al Pacino's best film. He acts the world off the stage, you can do nothing but believe he is blind. The whole cast of this film are excellent and the direction perfect. There is some strong language in the film, please don't let that put you off. The language used is part of Al Pacino's character and is only used when necessary for the character to express himself. A warm film with a solid story line and memorable moments. A must for any film fan, Al Pacino or not!

    A great film

    I thoroughly enjoyed this movie and so did my mother, who will not admit to enjoying anything in life.

    Of course Al Pacino is superb as the rude, arrogant, suicidal blind ex-army guy. Who certainly makes life very difficult and exciting for his new carer Chris O' Donell, including the drive of a lifetime in a new Ferrari driven by the blind Pacino.

    A very up-lifting film and very funny but it's no comedy. It is certainly inspirational and I at the end had a lot more respect for the actors involved, baring in mind that O' Donnel was an unknown when I watched the film.

    “What super power would you have?” someone asks Zuzana in an internet chatroom. “To be invisible,” she replies. “To walk through walls and to read peoples minds…” We get a taste of these wondrous gifts ourselves, courtesy of this beguiling and whimsical observational film by Slovak music video director Juraj Lehotsky. Shot over a five year period, the movie is a documentary which applies some fictional techniques – including some scripted scenes, Read more
