Review of Creator

Creator (1985)
10/10
Peter O'Toole is a genius
2 November 2002
I loved O'Toole more than ever in this film. I just read someone else's review who didn't like it --one of their reasons was that they couldn't believe that O'Toole's character just let Spano's Character (Boris) come in and work for him just because he walked in the door. But that is exactly what make's O'Toole's character! He WOULD do something like that! He is so off the wall! Lol. I know if his character existed in real life he would most certainly do that!

I thought this film was so similar to real life and while it may be too heart felt to some people (especially MEN!) I think there are many lessons to be learned from it. Look, I love horror/thrillers more than anything and that is what makes up most of my top 10 films. But Creator does slip in there --Hemingway is just made for the part. I think the script is clever, fresh , funny and delivered so perfectly by all involved. I am also a huge fan of Ms. Madsen who was also perfect. They ALL were fantastic and now that I think of it I need to find this film on DVD Pronto!

Excellent cast, film script and set! (I love Santa Barbara)

Watch it! and enjoy think and learn.
