	TerribleMovies.Com: All about B Movies, B Lifestyles, and the CHUDs who love them
		These campy, quickly cut, and daring movies that are filled with one liners and media references are merely reflections of trends in a pop (poop ha ha!) art society.
		Movies that would have been too dangerous or too out of context for the time would not have been allowed or paid attention to.
		People's fascination with popular movies can be likened to a cult; moviegoers flock to the cinemas solely to catch a glimpse of their favourite stars, like Leonardo DiCaprio and Ben Affleck, the plot of the movie in and of itself becoming less and less important.

		Phenomenon also stars Robert Duvall as Doc, the small town doctor who is like a father to Malley, and Kyra Sedgwick as Lace, Malley's love interest.
		Phenomenon tells the story of Malley, who on his 37th birthday is hit by a strange light which beams down from out of the night sky and strikes him like a bolt.
		Before the phenomenon, we used to be able to communicate clearly, but now I don't understand what he's saying all the time, and I don't understand why he's so obsessed with certain things.

	'Phenomenon' leaves audience feeling empty
		Director Jon Turtletaub's "Phenomenon" is the kind of movie that's pretty bad to begin with, but ends up seeming even worse when you begin to think about the sheer wastefulness of the whole project.
		Instead, "Phenomenon" proceeds to take itself far more seriously than itshould for a film that remains steadfastly elusive as to the cause, meanings or repercussions of the events in its own narrative.
		It's not that downbeat endings are bad per se, but for a movie that operates primarily on a level of pure romantic fluff, the sudden sullen nature of "Phenomenon"'s finale seems ever so pretentious and miscalculated.

	Movie Review: White Noise
		While the movie White Noise is billed as a suspense thriller with a story written for the big screen, it also purports to feature a real meethod of communication between our world and the one inhabited by the departed.
		Whether or not the phenomenon represents messages from the dead in te real world is subject to question (there are, believe it or not, groups formed specifically to study the phenomenon, the largest of which may be the American Association of Electronic Voice Phenomenon).
		The movie uses its poetic license to assume that EVP is exactly what it is purported to be: a way for those who have died to send messages back to those of us still living.

	Pitching a big tent - Salon
		We all heard the story of how a little horror movie, shot for $30,000 on wobbly cameras held by unknown actors, was bought for $1 million and spurred on to a $141 million box-office success by the astute, Internet-based marketing tactics of distributor Artisan Entertainment.
		It was the kind of movie that makes huge money, generates a thousand parodies and gets everyone talking about a revolution in marketing; it was a phenomenon.
		To become talked-about and written-about, a movie needs to have, or at least seem to have, something new and surprising; sequels by their nature have no novelty and few surprises.

	Nicholas Evans - The Movie
		My family and I were in Montana during the summer the movie was being shot and Robert Redford kindly invited us to the set for a day which was fun.
		When I first saw the movie in LA in the spring of 1998 I was blown away by the opening scene and liked the first half very much.
		I was less keen on the second half of the movie.

	ChatTimes Movie Reviews: "Phenomenon"
		Travolta and the movie's director, Jon Turtletaub ("While You Were Sleeping"), are both gifted with a populist touch that goes to the heart of what people often seek from the movies -- warmth, reassurance and a moral compass of some kind.
		Above all, the movie is imbued with a sweet-spirited optimism that is channeled and focused by Travolta, who pours his natural charm into the straightforward portrayal, creating his most sympathetic character yet.
		The movie's ad line says "Some things in life just can't be explained," and this is a case where you wish they weren't, since the explanation provided for Malley's transformation is disappointingly ordinary, and takes the movie on a swing into affliction-of-the-week mawkishness.

	How Movies Work
		It is the weekend and you are sitting in a dark movie theatre with popcorn in one hand and a box of chocolate covered raisons in the other.
		Persistence of Vision is the result of the tendency of the eye’s retina (the part of the eye that is sensitive to light) to retain an image for about 1/12 of a second.
		An example of this phenomenon is a series of flashing lights that appear to be moving along a path (such as blinking Christmas lights).

	deseretnews.com - Movie review: Phenomenon \| Deseret Morning News Web edition
		Wags will probably call this one "Forrest Gump Gets Smart." But it's actually "Charly," the movie adaptation of the famous short story "Flowers for Algernon" - about a mentally deficient young man who is turned into a genius through a scientific experiment, only to discover that being brainy isn't all it's cracked up to be.
		There's no question that Travolta's shaded performance is one of the highlights of "Phenomenon," in which he plays George Malley, a small-town dunce who is knocked to the ground on his 37th birthday by a strange shock of light in the midnight sky.
		"Phenomenon" is rated PG for a few scattered profanities and vulgar remarks, brief partial nudity (Duvall mooning Travolta through a window) and though Travolta and Sedgwick do end up in bed together, the sex is offscreen.

	Phenomenon DVD Movie Review by AceGamez
		Whilst Phenomenon could technically be classed as science fiction, it is a far more down to earth story about the human condition.
		Phenomenon is a charming and enjoyable film, although it is quite slow-paced and does drag a little towards the end.
		Phenomenon is an endearing tale of one ordinary man's extraordinary journey and whilst it is very well acted with a great cast, the screenplay is a little too slow to hold your attention throughout the film's overlong duration.

	Review: Phenomenon
		Presumably, Phenomenon's film makers are aiming for the same audience that made 1994's Forrest Gump a mega-hit.
		Unfortunately, this movie doesn't have half of Forrest's intelligence, and, opening opposite Independence Day, Phenomenon is likely to capture only a small fraction of Gump's box-office tally.
		Phenomenon goes from a feel-good story to a tear-jerker by using a plot contrivance that makes the "brain cloud" of Joe Versus the Volcano seem reasonable by comparison.

		The phenomenon, a flash of light from nowhere, hits Travolta's character, George Malley, on his 37th birthday.
		With "Phenomenon" out of the way, Travolta is now angling for a part in a Steven Spielberg movie musical starring Barbra Streisand.

	Three Movie Buffs Editorial: The Summer Blockbuster, Must See, Event Movie Phenomenon
		Jaws was released on June 20th, 1975 and became the first movie to break the coveted $100 million mark in box office earnings, thus setting the bar for all blockbusters to come.
		Even today, when $100 million is quite common, and the budget for the largest movies often exceeds that amount, it is still the base standard for what is used to describe a blockbuster.
		Although the Summer Blockbuster was born in the seventies, it was the eighties that saw it come to maturity.

	Phenomenon (Site not responding. Last check: )
		Phenomenon is occasionally cute and mostly inoffensive but its soundtrack is truly grating.
		Billed as a feel-good movie, Phenomenon coddles the viewer for near on two hours with picturesque scenes of rolling farmland, heartfelt human situations, poignancy, expectation and hope.
		Failing that re-edit, Phenomenon should be avoided by anyone with an intolerance to saccharine.

	Cranky Critic® Movie Reviews: Phenomenon
		I'm guessing here, but it is almost as if the writer of Phenomenon (Gerald DiPego) was too aware of previous films dealing with similar transformations (Charley and Resurrection), and did his best to avoid coming off like a clone.
		I've said many times that I'm no sucker for romances, and a very sweet, simple romance is what Phenomenon really is. The women sitting around me were gushing like broken wetworks.
		Were Cranky able to set his own price for Phenomenon, he would have paid.

	Movie Review - Phenomenon
		Phenomenon is a film about George Malley, a man who was born and raised in a small town in northern California.
		When the government finds out about this phenomenon, they ask for George's permission to do open brain surgery on him.
		The only problem is, they want to do it while he is still alive, which would inevitably cause his death to come sooner than if he did not have the surgery.

		Phenomenon is about the blossoming of human potential, as is Scientology.
		Not only did "Phenomenon" have a great soundtrack, but it probably is both the most underrated performance and underrated film in Travolta's career.
		When I was a few years too young to watch the actual movie, I found the soundtrack to "Phenomenon" in my dad's music closet; it has remained my overall favorite CD ever since.

	Dan Heller's Movie Review: Phenomenon
		In Phenomenon, Travolta doens't surprise us with how well we ended up feeling for him; you don't get as absorbed by his nature or character as you do for the Forest Gump character.
		It's mostly the script and his surrounding movie environment to blame.
		You'll walk away thinking, "aww, that was a good movie," but you won't walk away thinking it was a great movie.
