Review

 

Successful Web designer Wilson Joel's (Hoffman) life spirals out of control after the sudden, devastating event of his wife's suicide. Unable to read the goodbye note she left for him, Wilson forges new, unpredictable relationships with friends, co-workers, and his stunned mother-in-law (Bates). But the bond he creates with a dangerous drug could take what's left of his blown-apart life and extinguish it completely...

Customer rating: 5 out of 5 stars Best Kept Secret!

Sometimes there are movies that are destined for the bottom shelf of your video-shop, movies that nobody will ever see, movies that are "best kept secrets", you find a gem, a jewel in the rough, and you realise you've found something special. Love Liza is one of those movies. It's amazingly refreshing. A man still coming to terms with his wife's suicide, getting addicted to petrol fumes and going to radio control meets, this is brilliant inventive film-making.... Hoffman is a revelation, a real tour de force, bringing a subtle vulnerability to the role. Watch for Kathy Bates as his overbearing mother-in-law... Love Liza is a brilliant movie, which has been criminally overlooked by the general public and deserves to be seen. It might not be to everybodies tastes but that's cinema!!!! This critic even feels a little jealous that whoever buys this movie will be able to witness it for the "first time", as I have watched it thousands of times and am still refreshed by it's originality! BUY IT!

A Man Who Sniffs Gasoline Fumes And Likes Model Planes. Gripping Stuff I Know. Awful Film.

Customer rating: 5 out of 5 stars A criminally over looked movie!

How can a low budget film about addiction to gasoline fumes, flying model planes and a man's reluctance to open his wife's suicide note be so damn funny?
Brilliantly written and directed with a superb performance from Philip Seymour Hoffman. Differently one of my all times favourites.
