Love It!,
By Jake McKay "sumterseller" (sumter, sc) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Continental Divide (VHS Tape)
This film is very old....but that's what makes it great. It's interesting to see the old computer equipment the newspaper used, and the old Amtrak trains throughout the finale. I also like it because John Belushi was a comedian attempting to make that cross-over to drama (of course this isn't a stone cold drama like "Out of Africa" for instance). Many comedians have failed in this...like Chevy Chase in "Foul Play" and John Candy in "Only the Lonely" and Richard Pryor in "Which Way is Up?". I think Belushi pulled it off beautifully. It's also the type of movie that leaves you with your heart exposed...it leaves you with a sense of longing deep in your soul....as Belushi rides off in the final scene you can't help but think of how the story goes on from there. You can't help but think that you want to be there, you want to feel like they feel as they proceed into the unknown area of post-credithood.

a different side of john belushi,

This review is from: Continental Divide (DVD)
I saw this movie the other night and I was captivated. I only thought that John Belushi was a comedic actor. I watched and watched as I saw that there was more to John Belushi than meets the eye. The film shows the Animal House John Belushi in the beginning but later shows a different actor. The movie shows that he is a compassionate person. In short, I loved this movie I think that John Belushi is an extremely talented actor. I think it is ashame that he passed away at such an early age. I think thatn he could have made an important contribution to the film industry.

From alcohol to the alps,
By todd rich "scoop 69" (makin it happen , nc United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Continental Divide (DVD)
John Belushi is forever connected to the alcohol abusing, self depricating , and party animal charators that he 's reknowned for playing in other films. Luckily , before his untimely demise , he participated in this project...Continental Divide. It totally seperates him against typecast and shows just how much diversified acting ability , he had .Whereas , alot of people (typical Belushi fans)didn't appreciate this effort, I think it was extremely refreshing. It only took me about five minutes to forget that it was John Belushi portraying Ernie Souchak. A top dog columnist who's forced out of town to do a safer article , at the request of his boss , to save him from danger. Blair Brown's Nell Porter, provides the perfect opposite, for Belushi's Souchak. The film has a very basic "boy meets girl " formula. However ,the script and actors take this film to an all time high. It is a very special film that provides very special and cinematic moments. I enjoyed it when I was a teenager and I hated love story's. But there's more to this tale than just a typical spin. Definately not a film to be missed.
