	John Ottman: Biography
		John was nominated by the American Cinema Editors and won the British Academy Awards for his editing, as well as a Saturn Award for his score to the film.
		John dove into Apt late as film was piling up to the ceiling. He was faced with a very difficult story to keep interesting editorially.
		John then delivered a heart-stopping action score utilizing the full battery of the orchestra, as well as a creative use of electronic phone sounds woven in the score. The most challenging part of the project was keeping an emotional connection between two characters who are never in the same space.

	The Jack Bull
		John Cusack is underestimated as a thespian because of his young face and an undeniable consistency to his characters--young, intelligent, angst-ridden, love-struck males who hesitate over every decision.
		John Badham is an infuriating director, the type that makes a great movie every ten years or so, then spends the other nine making crap.
		Like the Cusacks, Dick and John, this is Badham's first western and he shows admirable restraint, resisting the camera hot-dogging that many current directors familiar with the action genre cannot (Raimi, Hill).

	John Badham
		Never was a film more suspenseful, both in the circumstances of its plot and in the greater drama of Badham’s skill with juggling the complicated metaphors, which accounts for an extended homage to The 39 Steps.
		The style is primarily a concomitant of all this, having to maintain an even keel on the wide seas of a variable image, with a particularly abrasive performance by Jason Patric as the painter creating an afterimage of bold independence.
		Badham’s layout is extremely interesting (note the “clips” from his author’s film work).

	DRACULA (1979)
		Richter and Badham were no doubt compelled to follow this route, considering Langella's success in the play, but they also introduced some new 'inventions' into the script, some of which work and some of which don't.
		Badham insists he wasn't thinking in terms of a sequel, but it certainly comes across that way.
		Badham directs with considerable style, making terrific use of the Panavision frame and keeping the pace going at a decent clip.

		I say either John Badham is not worthy of his good movies or his bad movies are not worthy of him.
		Photographed by the distinguished John Alonzo, the interiors create the mood of a neo-noir, while the climactic chases and battles boast some the most thrilling aerial photography ever captured.
		Badham and star Matthew Broderick steer us through an entertainment that has remained brisk, funny, and compelling, but has also become acceptably - no, make that endearingly - quaint.

	ER \| Nick of Time (1996)
		John Badham doesn't make films -- he makes "movies." Just like Spielberg (except when he's showboatin' for an Oscar), Tarantino (when he actually steps behind a camera), and Paul Verhoven (whom I have nothing against, I just like plugging SHOWGIRLS).
		When the credits roll and they stick "A Film By" in front of their name, they kid themselves that their work is elevated to the level of art, not entertainment.
		At least Badham is honest and labels his flicks "A John Badham Movie." He's refreshingly without pretense -- then again, he's also a world class hack.

	Actor, john travolta films, movies, pulp fiction, john travolta photos!
		John Travolta Born on February 18, 1954, in Englewood, New Jersey, of Italian-Irish descent.
		Born the youngest of six children to tire salesman and former semiprofessional football player Salvatore Travolta and high school drama teacher Helen Travolta, John was a late-in-life baby, and therefore a miracle according to his Roman Catholic parents: his upbringing was appropriately pampered and permissive.
		Not that Travolta doesn't have plenty of work to fill the void: apart from starring roles in Michael, Face/Off, and the upcoming Mad City, he inherited (from Tom Hanks) the role of a U.S. president whose libido runs amok, in Universal's adaptation of Primary Colors, the best-selling satire of Bill Clinton's 1992 presidential campaign.

		Badham's decision to treat the authorities (Scott Wilson, Jay O Sanders, John Goodman) as period caricatures is regrettable but John Cusack is solid as a figure of utterly matter-of-fact integrity.
		John Cusack is just terrific here - you might find it a stretch to see him in a Western, but he is utterly credible in a tough role.
		I'm sure Dick Cusacks (john's dad) would be proud of the end result of his script, produced by his son.

		John Badham, who I regard as one of the nicest and therefore most inspiring people I've ever worked with, just patted me on the shoulder and said everything would be just fine.
		It was mastered a little more brightly than I wanted (which will always disturb me), but in the end the score was saved.

		It veers toward the terminally cute, what with 5's hyperactive antics and E.T.-ish voice, and the mangled grammar of Guttenberg's East Indian sidekick (Fisher Stevens) threatens to become offensive, but Badham's breezy direction keeps the film on track.
		Give credit to designer Syd Mead, an army of puppeteers and robotics operators, and the cartoony voice of Tim Blaney: Number 5 is alive.
		The DVD special edition also features relaxed audio commentary by John Badham and writers S.S. Wilson and Brent Maddock, on-set interviews with cast and crew (including some sharp observations by futurist Syd Mead, who designed the robot), a short "making of" featurette, behind-the-scenes footage, production stills and designs, and a trailer.

		But it's also a relic of its era in other ways as well, tapping into a fresh vein of Cold War anxiety that arrived with the Reagan administration's new concentration on the arms race.
		As much as the first factor dates it and the second factor may alienate viewers who came of age after the fall of the Iron Curtain, neither element prevents director ohn Badham's film from still playing like a skillfully put together thriller.

	Drop Zone . Tucson Weekly . 01-12-95
		Wesley Snipes and Gary Busey (as the villain) are still trapped in some sort of Flop Zone that seems based on a quest to recreate the cat-and-mouse tension of Die Hard without the benefit of well-constructed action sequences.
		Though packed with great stuntwork and stunning images of glow-in-the-dark skydivers leaping out of planes at night, director John Badham isn't up to the nitty-gritty task of building suspense, and his attempts to add humor only accentuate this failing.
