Swimming With Sharks
WARNING - SPOILERS
I just watched this a few nights ago for the first time. I was really surprised at how much I liked it. Really good movie. Kevin Spacey was excellent in it. I'm surprised Spacey wasn't at least nominated for Best Actor. His character was great and memorable. I usually can predict the ending of most movies but this one blew me away. I thought for sure the kid was going to kill himself or Spacey. When it turned out he actually killed his girlfriend it blew me away. |
Re: Swimming With Sharks
So... "the kid" killed his girlfriend. And this is supposed to blow us away.
Spoilers much? |

He wasn't famous back then and the studio didn't advertise during Nomination season.
I think it was an Oscar-worthy performance. |
He is very good in it. I think it was actually made a year or two before, but wasn't released until '94. It really made its mark after The Usual Suspect hit big in '95.

Did you like it, Honeykid?

Re: Swimming With Sharks
Yes, I really liked it. I've not seen it for a long time. It was on tv recently. I recommended it to n3wt and he liked it too.

When I saw it a few days ago I thought it was some new movie of his I missed. I didn.t even know the name of it because I saw it on IFC and it didn't say the name of it (missed the very beginning). I had to look it up on Wiki to see what it was.
Spacey made Buddy Ackerman a memorable character. http://cdn.mos.totalfilm.com/images/...95--300-75.jpg |
Re: Swimming With Sharks
Apparently he's based on Joel Silver. :D

Forgot how good this movie was, especially Spacey! Gotta watch it again!
