Review of Christine (1983) by Akshatmahajan — 28 Jul 2021
From last few days, I have been watching John Carpenter's movie. I read alot about this movie and watched it. I liked the idea of the movie and it was new concept for that time (based on Stephen King's novel). For your info, this movie is now considered cult classic like Carpenter's other movies.
For me, the movie was nicely made. It had elements of darkness, horror and tense, all blended perfectly. There are some good tense scenes. The suspense is also nicely built up and there are some surprises also.
If we talk about performances, everyone did their job nicely. Direction by John Carpenter was just like his other movies such as Halloween and The Thing. I didn't find any problem with the pacing.
Overall, the movie is good and different for it's time. I will be different experience for you.
P. S. Indian movie, Tarzan: The Wonder Car is loosely based on this movie and had manu scenes copied from this movie.
