Dorathen Better Late Then Never

CommentsXp Best movie ever!

Baseshment I like movies that are aware of what they are selling... without [any] greater aspirations than to make people laugh and that's it.

Mandeep Tyson The acting in this movie is really good.

leplatypus This is the most soporific and stupid movie i have seen lately and it's a new stinker with Holly who didn't make a fine work since « the firm » ! For sure, as she plays a maid for a father and his son, you can guess at once what's the movie is about ! It's a sort of tradition that maids always fall in love for their rich and prestigious masters but i can't buy it ! I prefer to believe into their depraved habits when a son can indeed make love to his father girlfriend !! All this turpitude happens in a gloomy, austere mansion that stinks old ! This ridiculous family of crying men is badly played with Sutherland doing the adult poet kid in shorts (!) and with a poor nobody with zero talent as the father ! This one is in addition so tall that poor Holly break her neck to see him ! All along the movie, between doing chores and speaking around meals, she has nothing to do ! So it's a totally useless movie that doesn't worth any more comments !

karenmcb57 This move was a project of Kiefer's that he really believed in. Then the editors got a hold of it and butchered it quite badly. Kiefer pulled his name from the credits and that is why you see Smithee's name as director. His mother, Shirley Douglas, is listed very high in the opening credits, but in the cut version, you never see her. The author also has a small part and it was also cut. I have to agree with the previous comment that the DVD, and the version you see on the television now, is the cut version. I also notice there is a very large discrepancy of pricing in the VHS versions. I am myself looking for the uncut version, as I have not yet seen it. I am a huge Kiefer fan, and have talked to him personally about this film. Over the years he has allowed his name back on the credits, but still feels bad over what happened

deadlymistress24 I am the hugest Kiefer Sutherland fan, so when I was flipping through the channels and saw this movie, I immediately had to watch it. So I did. I wasn't entirely sure what would come out of the movie, but I was surprised to find myself somewhat pleased. Sutherland did an excellent job in acting and directing this film. Moriarty was a very unique character, and Hunter brought a sort of wholesomeness to the movie. However, I do agree that the ending is a little mind boggling. I know that Hunter's character went to church and prayed for a child, but I didn't believe it would happen. As the previous reviewer said, no one really knows who the father of the child is and that is creepy. But when you see the end, you notice that there is a picture of both men kissing the top of the child's head, so whatever the answer is to the question of the child's father, it may not seem relevant. What is relevant is that this poignant story of father and son finally coming together, despite many obstacles is truly a story to behold.

hans-31 In this movie everything is wrong. The script is to bad for words. Why the characters behave like they do is unclear. Everything comes out of the blue. Even the continuity people were bored making this movie. In scene one there is a band aid on Kiefer Sutherlands head, then it is gone, and some time later it is back. Michael Moriarty is giving the worst performance of his lifetime and even Holly Hunter is walking around wondering why on earth she bothered to come to the set of this film. My advise: show this movie on film school in first grade and let students write an essay about everything that is wrong.
