	Movie Review - The River Wild
		In The River Wild the Hartman family befriends the killers, believing them to be stranded tourists and in so doing become their victims.
		Since the thugs cannot negotiate the river rapids by themselves, they coerce Gail, who was a champion white water rafter in her youth, to get them down the rapids.
		The actual jump into the river was off of a special platform where a trainer waited with the dog and made sure his footing was good, then tossed his favorite toy into the water to encourage him to jump in, which he did.

		The Wind River tells the true story of Nick Wilson who lived among the Shoshone for a couple of years, and was one of the original rides of the pony Express.

		The main strength of this movie is the sympathetic portrayal of the American Indian.

	Bridge on the River Kwai Review by David Hurlbert (5 Stars) \| MatchFlick
		The Bridge on the River Kwai (1957) is a spectacular film and a sobering reminder of that generation who sacrificed much to provide a future of liberties and values that we should uphold and never take lightly.
		Historical inaccuracies aside, this movie defines the term film epic on a grand scale from the original sets to the notable cast.
		While this epic film is undoubtedly a great movie, it sanitizes the crimes the Japanese committed against the Allied POWs and Asian captives held during that time in the region.

	The River Movie: The River DVD is available from Bestprices.com
		When the local river floods and nearly destroys the farms around it, hardship hits the area.
		Director Mark Rydell's THE RIVER is a truly beautiful, subtly heartwrenching, and unique film in that it captures the seldom-seen pleasures of living and growing up in an endangered world--that of the family farm.
		Much of THE RIVER was filmed on 440 acres of land purchased by Universal Studios by the Holston River in Tennessee.

	The River - DVD Movie Central
		The river itself is in essence the true spiritual center of the film, its nurturing waters providing for all in the community, from the villagers to the foreigners and even to the majestic pipal tree that sits along its river banks.
		The River is a celebration of immutable existence itself, wherein life and death and renewal are all intertwined in an commensal embrace.
		The River has now passed somewhat into the faded annals of cinematic history, but it is a film that deserves to be cherished and not forgotten.

		The River was filmed in fourteen states, as opposed to five in which footage was shot in the making of The Plow That Broke the Plains, with a considerably larger crew and the budget two and one half times the size of the first film.
		The script that Lorentz wrote for the narration of The River is a free-verse masterpiece which was praised by James Joyce as "the most beautiful prose that I have heard in ten years", and was nominated for the Pulitzer Prize for Poetry in 1938.
		Lorentz suggested that misuse of the river and the river valley bore the responsibility of the horrible financial situation that many Americans found themselves in during the Depression.

	The River Movie
		The river's rage is nothing compared to the characters undergoing their conflict.
		She and Glenn are excellent (so are the 2 kids) but there was nothing about Gibson's character that made me care and his acting is so dreadfully dull.
		The only chemistry in the entire movie existed whenever Spacek and Glenn were interacting.

	Drowned at the River » Quick Movie Review: Miami Vice
		Most “TV based” movies serve only to tarnish the memory of the original, slavishly trying to mimic the formula that made the TV series a hit.
		The climactic battle that ends the movie isn’t as long as firefight in Heat, but it is every bit as compelling.
		This movie is not your typical summer action flick… It’s a crime drama, and we should be thankful that Michael Mann trusts us enough as an audience that he doesn’t dumb it down in an effort to achieve “Summer Blockbuster” status.

	The River Wild \| Movie Review \| Entertainment Weekly
		She convinces you that her character, a middle-class wife and mother, is also an instinctive athlete, a woman who relies on fluid physical strength to keep herself centered.
		In the movie's white-water thrill sequences-of which there are exactly two-her raft becomes a storm-tossed throne, with Streep astride it like the feisty queen of the jocks.
		But before the film reaches its climactic river run, which is photographed to make the audience experience every queasy bump and plunge, we have to sit through 90 minutes of draggy TV- movie melodrama.

	Mystic River - Movie Review
		From a storytelling standpoint, River actually is Eastwood’s most ambitious project in years, with multiple subplots growing like weeds in an untended patch.
		From that point on, River slowly trudges through the motions of a tired whodunit, saving its dramatic juices for a blowout finale that never comes.
		In addition to a Bacon-Robbins commentary track (what, Penn was too tired?), a second disc offers a number of extras, including a making-of film and a piece by the author of the original novel about his old 'hood.

		"Mystic River" is a compelling film that could have been a classic with some judicious editing in the end and a rethink of the climax.
		Mystic River is haunting and melancholy, and the portraits it paints of Jimmy,Dave, and Sean will stay with you after you have left the theater.
		In a time when the goal of most movies is to offer instant gratification with no aftertaste, this quality should be both valued and praised.

	The River (1938) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-04)
		I first saw THE RIVER in the 1950's in school, in the days when watching a movie in class didn't mean turning on the TV and popping in a VHS tape, it meant rolling in the old Bell and Howell Filmosound, putting up the screen, and watching a real 16mm projected MOVIE.
		It is the story of the Mississippi River, what it means to the land, and what we have done to it.
		And it doesn't hurt that the musical score, by Virgil Thompson, is arguably the greatest musical score written for any movie (it is in its orchestral suite format a concert standard and has had many recordings, and is also available as the complete score on at least one recording).

	Mystic River - Movie Review
		It's something of a rarity these days to encounter a crime movie that doesn't batter you across the face with one unlikely twist after another, whilst simultaneously forcing an unfathomable number of characters and contrivances down your throat.
		Sean Penn, not a man you generally tend to associate with great movies, delivers the goods in spades as Jimmy, the ex-con turned family man whose life is torn apart when daughter Katie (Emmy Rossum) is found brutally murdered.
		Jimmy's childhood friends Sean and Dave (Kevin Bacon and Tim Robbins) soon become embroiled in the case - Sean because he's the detective given the job of investigating it, and Dave because he soon emerges as the chief suspect.

	Mystic River Movie review
		Clint Eastwood's moody, dark movie of Dennis Lehane's novel "Mystic River" is one of his best films as a director, topped only by "Unforgiven." This new film examines the result of a childhood trauma on three boyhood friends, and the ever-widening circles of other people it affects, directly and indirectly.
		The only serious failing of "Mystic River" is that it's hard to identify with the characters; each is so troubled, so dark that they remain at arm's length.
		But this is as intelligent and well-crafted as Hollywood films get; if you accept the fact that it is a disturbing film offering little comfort to characters or audience, it is very much worth seeing.

		The New England private boarding school at the centre of her River King has a storied past, from a flood that ravaged the building in 1858 to a headmaster's wife who hanged herself.
