Dustin Hoffman is a 'triumph (People) in an Oscar(r)-winning* role, and Tom Cruiseis 'terrific (ABC Radio) in a film that's fascinating, touching and full of smart surprises (Newsweek)! Charlie Babbitt (Cruise) has just discovered he has an autistic brother named Raymond (Hoffman) and is now taking him on the ride of his life. Or is it the other way around? From his refusal to drive on major highways to a four minutes to Wapner meltdown at an Oklahoma farmhouse, Raymond first pushes hot-headed Charlie to the limits of his patience and then pulls him completely out of his self-centered world! But what began as an unsentimental journey for the Babbitt brothers becomes much more than the distance between two placesit's a connection between two vastly different people and a poignant, profound and powerful film (Joel Siegel, ABC-TV)! *1988: Actor

VCR to DVD
Just wanted to update my DVD collection with one of my favorite movies, Rainman. Amazon had the best price and delivered within 5 business days, even during the holiday season.

Wonderful movie
Barry Levinson has proven again what a fine director he is.

RAIN MAN delivers quite a punch as a human drama and sort of a buddy picture, with some humorous moments. It is deeply felt.

Tom Cruise is excellent in this movie. Dustin Hoffman is great too.

I would definitely recommend this one.

Cruise should have won an Oscar
Tom Cruise should have won an Oscar for his little brother character to the autistic older brother Dustin Hoffman.

2.5 stars out of 4
The Bottom Line:

A fairly middling film lifted out of its mediocrity only by the star power generated by Tom Cruise and a very good Dustin Hoffman, Rain Man is too long, too slow, and too uninteresting to be considered a good movie, much less a classic.

Great Item
I bought this DVD on Saterday & recieved it in the mail on Friday. I thought I was buying a used DVD but this one seemed New & still had the plastic over it like a new one usually does. This pleased me because I only paid close to three dollars plus shipping. I'm very pleased with this product.
