Reel Geezers- Man on Wire

[variously2]

man on wire was terrible. the man was an egotistical asshole who used his friends. the movie was incredibly boring and simple. i could tell you in one sentence what happens: A man plans years to walk between skyscrapers and then does it. The feat was neat, the lass was an ass, and there was no reason to use 90 minutes to drag this out with annoying commentaries by all those involved, especially the lead dick.

The only thing I don't like about YouTube is that people can make stupid remarks like Alfrunk has done here. This is one of the great documentaries ever made. It's moving and heartbreaking at the same time. It deservedly won the Oscar this year. It's about so much more than wire-walking.

[josiewhales]

i liked the movie but i wish it had better video footage of his walk besides that it was great

[MarmiteGivesLife]

are these 2 married? im new to this show sorry if its been asked a million times

[myfilmblog]

they're not

[bmobaggins]

yeah i liked it, but it played that one song over and over. but still that aside, great eye opneing documentary. for sure this will win best documentary at the oscars.

[Lemphek]

Gymnopedie no.1 by Satie is such a beautiful song.

Such a pity it was overused like you said.

[Alfrunk]

I know - it's like suddenly people have this HUGE love for wire-walkers?? Huh?? Since WHEN has anyone ever been inspired and joyous over a circus act like wire-walking? Just goes to show what SHEEP these people are. Something is seen as popular, and suddenly everyone is on the bandwagon. Have any of these lemmings given a SHIT about wirewalking before? Disgusting.

[Alfrunk]

THe sexual chemistry in this review is as overwhelming as it is disturbing.

[sammmyp]

LOL

[Missy8085]

No, no, your observation that there is overt

sexual chemistry is laughable and disturbing.

[Alfrunk]

Evidently you are quite young and naive. Please grow up a bit before making such a ridiculous claim.

[Havenscope]

It's typically like this in most of their videos lol.

[Morcridx1]

omg gohman7 trying to explain to us how movies SHOULD be LOL.

what world do u live in bud?

[afewgoodclips]

Great review! I want to see this movie now! I'll have to look for it on DVD! I still think your show belongs on TV! Have you approached Bravo network or something? I think people would love it. Even when you guys argue, it's great. We love your personalities and don't change! Peace to you and good luck.

If you do a little more research about Philippe, you learn that he agreed to explain all of his methods to the police in exchange for a dismissal of the charges.

I think you are missing the greater point about Philippe's feat. His act brought joy to the lives of many. I suggest you watch the movie rather than dismiss the man as a criminal.

[Alfrunk]

Yeah let's idolize a criminal. What a life - he balanced on a wire and didn't die - wow. And some people just wanna cure cancer. Sad the "people" we look up to these days, while overlooking true heroes. Sick.

[SheilaTait]

Great review. When the artist was asked why he did it, he said 'there is no why' and having seen the film I understand his answer. Oh to have such passion.

[ksmred2]

The best film of the year.

[DameEdithDivine]

I love this review. I must now see this documentary. I think this is the best review because of your enthusiasm. You are both vibrant, exuberant, inspired and inspiring. Bravo! More like this!!

[robertantonnyc]

these two are just a joy to watch interacting and they surely know their stuff. There were a few spoilers without alerts but still a grea review and such wonderful chemistry. "Class never goes out of style".

[yaffle]

nice review.

[xwidget]

I skip most "blockbusters", at least first run, as I find them too formulaic to bother. This film is one that I will make the effort to see at the theater. Many thanks for the heads up and for the excellent commentary.

[whymeee]

love watching this

[portalplayer]

dear reelgeezers,

please review Mummy 3!!!!

It was a huge movie that many people hated. It would be interesting to see what you think of it.

[allansfriend]

I've got to tell my Dad about this one...Thanks so much!
