thiago S @Thiagostone 1d Filme fraco, o roteiro é fraco, as cenas são fracas, a história é fraca, o elenco é fraco, e ninguém ajuda a melhorar o filme, os personagens são fracos, e o filme deveria ter cenas bem melhores e relevantes, para fazer o filme ser bom See more 12/19/2019 An underrated gem from an underrated actor. Timothy Dalton shines brightly here and it is astounding to watch. See more 09/27/2015 This is my favorite movie of all time. I have watched it over 300 times. I am terminally ill, a very slow, painful death. This film taught me how to live again. It showed me that there is ALWAYS a rose among the thorns. If I get another tomorrow, then I will LIVE it. I was suicidal when i first saw this film, it literally saved my life. All four main characters do an excellent job, in this very underrated film. When I was a professional bowler, I handed out red noses to those that asked for autographs, and to sick folks I visited in the hospital. This is one of Mr Dalton's best performances. Taking this role was a risk, as it was between his two Bond films. The best way I can describe this movie is "laughing through tears." Many do not know that this film is the inspiration for "The Bucket List." I watch it at least once per month, and on those days when pain makes self pity knock on my door. See more 09/05/2015 Low budget, fun, yet deeply moving piece of work. Looks at the attitudes to terminal illnesses. Some of the scenes will have you rolling in the aisles, while others will have you crying like a child. One of my all time favourites. See more 10/02/2014 Timothy Dalton proves in this film that he has two sides: One, a playful character wanting to help others get through their suffering with his unique outlook on life, and the other, a character who does care and look out for his friend. And Anthony Edwards does a good job playing a patient struggling to cope with his terminal illness, who doesn't just serve as the foil to Bancroft, but a true friend to the end. While cheesy and silly at some points, 'Hawks' delivers a strong and well-focused plot, with good acting performances from our leads, and a rather good composed score made by former Bee Gee singer Barry Gibb. See more 06/17/2011 Likeable but pretty dull drama. See more Read all reviews
