The Glass House movie review & film summary (2001)

 'The Glass House" brings skilled method to a plot that is a foregone final thought. Since it is clear from very early in the movie what must have happened and why, it is a movie about waiting on the personalities to capture up to us. The movie's trailer does not help, with its extensive dishonesty of the movie's key secrets. It should also be a trick that this is a thriller--we should stroll in thinking it is about kids making it through the loss of their moms and dads. No chance of that.


The movie opens up with among those unimportant stun switches that have become annoying in current years--five or 10 mins that have absolutely nothing to do with the rest of the tale, but trick us with misleading video video. In this situation, there is a scary scene, and after that we see it is a movie, and after that we see the heroine and her friends watching it--and, yes, they're adorable as they giggle at their own responses, but openings such as this are empty stylistic exercises. Once was a time when the well-made movie used its opening up scenes to dig in, not simply rotate its wheels.


The movie was guided by the TV professional Daniel Sackheim, that dealt with "ER," "The X-Files," "Legislation & Purchase," and various other collection that are smarter compared to this. It celebrities Leelee Sobieski, among the best young actresses, as Ruby Baker, that with her little sibling, Rhett (Trevor Morgan), is orphaned when their moms and dads pass away in a car crash. The family attorney (Bruce Dern) explains that the moms and dads had scheduled their friends Erin and Terry Glass to be their guardians in the situation of disaster, and quickly the kids are moving right into the Glasses' big glass house (uh huh), which is luxurious, although Ruby and Rhett are a bit too old to be sharing the same bedroom. It is a information such as that we find annoying. Why would certainly the Glasses, that have acres of living space on their Malibu hill, put the kids right into one room? Provided the Glasses' long-lasting plans, why not make the kids as happy as feasible? There is a type of thriller where the occasions unravel as they might in reality, and we need to decide which way to take them--and another type of thriller, this type, where the occasions unravel as a collection of ominous portents, real and duds, and songs stingers on the soundtrack. The first type of thriller is a movie, the second is a technological exercise.


What makes "The Glass House" unfortunate is that sources have been wasted. Diane Lane and Stellan Skarsgard, as the Glasses, are so great in the dialed-down "reasonable scenes" that we wince when they need to go over the top and make everything so very definitely clear for the slow learners in the target market. Sobieski is fine, too--as great a high end Los Angeles secondary school trainee as Kirsten Dunst in the current "Insane/Beautiful," but in a category exercise that hairs her rather than going someplace fascinating and taking her along.


It is great to see Bruce Dern again. He's among those stars, such as Christopher Walken, that you presume on first glimpse has a trick evil program. Here he's the family attorney that the kids can or can't trust, and is smart enough to play the personality definitely straight, with no tics or twitches, so that he maintains us wondering--or would certainly, if Wesley Strick's screenplay had not been among those infuriating buildings where the key outside personalities show up at the incorrect times, think the incorrect individuals and misunderstand everything.


Talking turning up, Sobieski's personality shows up at too many right times. How lucky that she decrease in on Mr. Glass's workplace simply at the right minute to be all ears, unobserved, on crucial discussion. And how regrettable that she appears to be showing the Glasses right and herself incorrect when a social employee strolls know a crucial minute and, of course, misinterprets it.


If you want to see a great movie about a pair of kids threatened by a ominous guardian, rent "The Evening of the Seeker." Watching "The Glass House" has all the aspects for a better movie, but does not trust the target market to stay up to date with them. Having actually criticized the Strick screenplay, I should in justness observe that the way it usually works is, the author places in the wise stuff and after that it appears in the tale seminars with execs that number if they do not understand it, no one will.
