    Stand By Me

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Jul 10, 2003 | 4 out of 6 found this Stand By Me (1986) review helpful

    Stand By me was the most excellent movies that I have ever seen. It's like seeing it now that you are in the 23rd century makes you wanna go back to the 80's and meet the characters in the story and the real-life actors. This movie will make ...you wonder what it was like to search for a dead body wit your three closests friends and take that chance on just getting close to the on a classical trip. I give Stand By Me a 5-star movie because this movie to me is drama, comedy, and suspense all in one movie. To see Corey Feldman playing this death wise desire kind of kid that is so handsome and dirty talking in this movie is awesome. But to also see the hard, tuff, bad boy leader of them all; River Phoenix is priceless. The character that River brings is so great that it makes you wanna be in the movie and stand by him throughout it. Then you see Jerry O'Connel the fat, scaredy cat of them all! What a laugh of joy and happiness. And of course, the cute, shy looking walkin', talkin', cute-faced one; Wil Wheaton! OMG! He is so cute! In the movie he seemed very quite and weird to people. Or to some people he was just John Cusak's little brother. Well, he was 25% life of the four boys. I will always love all of them and I will always dedicate this awesome movie to the one and only River Phoenix. Rest in Peace. Read more Less

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Apr 14, 2005 | 1 out of 1 found this Stand By Me (1986) review helpful

    Pros: A great coming-of-age tale

    Cons: Though not enough of a bonus disc

    This film was culled from the novella collection by Stephen King called "Different Seasons". It's full title was "Fall From Innocence; The Body". It told the story of four twelve-year old boys who embark on a trek through the ...Maine wilds searching for the body of another child who'd been killed while walking the train tracks. The film directed by Rob Reiner and written by Raynold Gideon and Bruce A Evans, stuck faithfully to King's tale and is now presented here as a deluxe collectors edition. Unfortunately, it doesn't have a Commentary Track from the three surviving stars Wil Wheaton, Jerry O'Connell and Corey Feldman. This whould have been interesting in hearing what they remembered of the film and just having a bonus disc of the Ben E King song doesn't cut it. There should be much more to this. Stick with the original release version instead. This should be a message to the studios to clean out their vaults and load Deluxe packages with tons of extras especially the Extras stingy Paramount films. Read more Less

    Something Else

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Apr 25, 2000 | 1 out of 1 found this Stand By Me (1986) review helpful

    I saw this movie over ten years ago and it still affects me. I relate to all the characters in this film. We've all been there, outcasts, misfits, often misunderstood. Do we let our friends hold us back, do we move on? This movie raises so many ques...tions and leaves it up to the viewer to answer those questions as they relate to the viewers own life.Remember the closing line to this movie?, I do.I never had any friends like I did when I was twelve years old, Jesus does anybody?May you rest in peace River, I never met you but the day you died I felt a peiece of me died.

    My FAVORITE Movie of ALL time!

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Oct 25, 1999 | 1 out of 1 found this Stand By Me (1986) review helpful

    I just thought I should come and write the first movie review for this movie because it TOTALLY deserves an amazing rating. SUPERB acting by such young actors. GO RENT IT! Also, I haven't seen The Shawshank Redemption, but it's also a movie adapted ...from a Stephen King short story, so you might want to rent that too. I've heard GREAT things about it! Hope you enjoy the movie:) Read more Less

    Pros: A wonderful film about growing up

    Cons: You may get a lump in your throat

    I first saw this movie in high school. I then bought it on VHS many years ago and actually had to replace it since I wore it out. I now intend to buy it on dvd! Three cheers for Stand By Me!

    Pros: Everything

    Cons: None

    I saw this on a rainy day at a university camp where there was nothing else to do. Even so, it was one of the best movies I ever have seen. Every time I see Wil Wheaton on an old Star Trak episode, I think of this film. It recreated every sensation I... remember from when I was a kid in the 1960s. If you haven't seen it, you MUST see it. Six stars! Read more Less
