DVD Reviews of Street Smart

DVD Review: Street Smart
Summary: 4 Stars


Received in good conditon and in a timely manner. Very real story about street life and the consequences.

DVD Review: Street Smart - A truly great performance by Morgan Freeman
Summary: 5 Stars

Morgan Freeman was robbed of an Oscar for his performance in this low budget and under appreciated film. Overall the movie was just okay, but it is well worth the price to see Morgan Freeman stealing every scene that he's in while scaring you to death with his portrayal of his character.

DVD Review: A tour de force of acting by Morgan Freeman.
Summary: 5 Stars

Morgan Freeman definitely was worthy of an oscar for his acting in this film!!! The story was very interesting with excellent acting by everyone. It's a piece of American cinematic art in its' own right, within the category it is in. For those who want to nit-pick at it with proposterous fussy-ness, they should either mention films (they consider perfect), or, present the list of movies (they produced and directed) so we can see what perfection is. And, liking a certain type of movie doesn't add-up-to that the viewer endorses the behavior or lifestyle portrayed in the movie - as some may conclude. -- (I suggest reading 'C.O. DeReimer's' review of this movie)!

DVD Review: never ordered this product either

DVD Review: Morgan Freeman's favorite role
Summary: 4 Stars

I purchase this movie because Morgan Freeman stated on "Oprah" that the role he played in this movie was his favorite role. I had never heard of the movie, but being a Morgan Freeman fan, I had to search it out. The movie was enjoyable, had a good storyline and is a must-see for Morgan Freeman fans and Christopher Reeve fans.

Description of Street Smart

Christopher Reeve, Kathy Baker, Mimi Rogers and Morgan Freeman star in this intriguing (Boxoffice), Oscar?(r)-nominated* thriller that's 'smart, cunning, deft, revealing andyesstreet smart (LA Weekly)! Freelance journalist Jonathan Fisher (Reeve) becomes the toast ofthe town when he breaks a story about the dirty deeds of a ruthless New York pimp. There's only oneproblem: Jonathan, under a deadline, fabricated the entire thing. Suddenly he's in demand not only by other reporters and the D.A., but also by Fast Black (Freeman), a real-life pimp everyone believes to be the subject of Jonathan's article! *1987: Supporting Actor (Freeman)
Stuck for a story idea that will excite his dismissive editor, New York magazine reporter Christopher Reeve hits on a winner: the life of a Manhattan pimp. The editor eats it up, but there's just one problem: Reeve made the whole thing up and now the editor wants more. What's worse, a scarily charismatic pimp (Morgan Freeman) and his top prostitute come looking for the reporter, believing that he was, in fact, writing about them. As they seduce him with access to their world, he becomes more and more trapped by his lies, particularly when a crusading D.A. also takes an interest in just what he knows. Reeve is the bland nougat center in what is otherwise a very tasty little film, given added crunch by the superlatively seductive Freeman and the equally intriguing Baker. --Marshall Fine
