Movie Review Summary

Rain Man is now over 20 years old but the story is so relevant it could easily be made again today with few updates. Tom Cruise and Dustin Hoffman play a tremendous double-act as brothers, with Dustin Hoffman’s portrayal of an autism sufferer so very convincing. Watching the dynamics of the relationships you’ll understand how Raymond frustrates the money-hungry Charlie, and how Charlie comes to appreciate a member of the family he has been long separated from. What could have been chosen to be any kind of genre is excellently played out as a drama and we do have real drama as we watch parts of two characters lives many people can probably relate to.
