Cruise should have won an Oscar, 2008-12-24
Tom Cruise should have won an Oscar for his little brother character to the autistic older brother Dustin Hoffman.

2.5 stars out of 4, 2008-12-18
The Bottom Line: br / br /A fairly middling film lifted out of its mediocrity only by the star power generated by Tom Cruise and a very good Dustin Hoffman, Rain Man is too long, too slow, and too uninteresting to be considered a good movie, much less a classic.

Great Item, 2008-09-29
I bought this DVD on Saterday recieved it in the mail on Friday. I thought I was buying a used DVD but this one seemed New still had the plastic over it like a new one usually does. This pleased me because I only paid close to three dollars plus shipping. I'm very pleased with this product.

Great Movie With A Decent Depiction Of A Person With A Disability, 2008-08-16
RAIN MAN is an excellent film that came out in 1988 when autism was relatively unknown. Though no one person on the autism spectrum is likely to exhibit all the traits Raymond Babbitt does Dustin Hoffman's portrayal of him is humane and relatively accurate. Tom Cruise is also excellent as Raymond's handsome self absorbed brother, Charlie, and I had almost forgotten what an appealing actor Cruise was as a young man. The plot is not too realistic but the movie is so well acted and the setting as the two men drive from Cincinnati to LA so well realized that it is difficult not to be absorbed in this good hearted film with a message.

Rainman, 2008-08-08
I'm a big fan of Dustin Hoffman and the part he played in this movie was one of his best characters. I can watch this movie over and over and it still brings tears to my eyes.
