\"\"\/Watched “Rain Man<\/a>” on DVD. This is an interesting drama, but kind of slow-paced.<\/p>\n

Two main characters were played by Dustin Hoffman<\/a> and Tom Cruise<\/a>. Cruise was as useless as usual. Hoffman, on the other hand, delivered the best performance I have ever saw. He was so amazing that he made the movie worth watching only by himself. Everything is else became very unimportant. Absolutely totally brilliant.<\/p>\n

None other bits of the movie matched Hoffman’s performance. Some of them though were pretty good. Particularly I liked how casinos and old cars were shown.<\/p>\n

8 out of 10.<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"\n
