Review of Talk Radio (1988) by Eric H — 15 Aug 2012

Talk Radio is a fantastic film that needs more recognition than it has. It is compelling, riveting, and even pretty hilarious at times. It is masterfully made up until those last five minutes where my opinion of the film just started to plummet.

But it doesn't mean I'm going to ever think of this film as a bad film because it is not. The other hour and forty five minutes are incredible. So much so that if it had succeeded in resolving well this could have made it into the list of my favorite movies.

But instead it is just going to end up being a very good film that I won't forget, but won't revere as one of the greatest films ever made.
