Best movie ever!

Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.

The movie really just wants to entertain people.

The movie's not perfect, but it sticks the landing of its message. It was engaging - thrilling at times - and I personally thought it was a great time.

I'm not a fan of romantic comedies, but this is one exception to that.The whole premise is ridiculous, the plot twists improbable, but who cares? This is a movie meant to entertain and it does so successfully. Don't look for any political statements or tests of one's intellect--you won't find any. Just sit back, suspend your disbelief, and enjoy the show.

The adventure part of it was great. Honest! But for people who think their kids should watch it, are underrating this "sexy" film. I would much rather if they left out certain scenes... (which aren't important anyway)and then just stuck with the adventure, so the whole family can watch it. But besides that, it's a very exiting movie with great comedy, drama, and suspense :) Anyone who wants to go to Columbia, might have second thoughts after watching this wild movie LOL.

A romance writer sets off to Colombia to ransom her kidnapped sister, and soon finds herself in the middle of a dangerous adventure. Romancing the Stone is a 1984 Adventure Comedy directed by Robert Zemeckis and stars Michael Douglas, Kathleen Turner and Danny DeVito. Personally i found this film to lack the aspect of comedy and action at times it's very silly and over the top and that is what hurts it the most plus DeVito's performance is very silly and not in a good way, the 2 main stars have a good chemistry together and the movie is watchable for the most part despite being really dumb at times. The soundtrack is good and the action is okay. It's not one of Zemeckis best films but it's not one of his worst either but it could have been much better if it tried a bit more at least . (7/10)

Romancing the stone (1984) starring Kathleen Turner, Michael Douglas and Danny DeVito is an immensely entertaining film that is full of romance, action, and some comedy is even thrown in the mix for the audience to enjoy. The script is very delightful and fun. And the action scenes are thrilling, well coordinated, and well edited, hence the academy award nomination for best film editing, which was well deserved. Kathleen Turner was very delightful to watch on screen, she has great on screen chemistry with Michael Douglas, and she carries her own weight very impressively. And Michael Douglas really fits his character well, and he is very engaging in the action scenes. The movie really is just a whole lot of fun to sit down and enjoy, and the setting is great too, very fitting for the movie. Now this film is not a family movie, there is a pretty substantial amount of profanity, it's targeted towards a teen and adult demographic. 8/10 for romancing the stone.
