Some want to study him, and one (Hutton, in a good performance) just wants to communicate with him. Scintists dig up a Neanderthal and thaw him out. Among other really good movies he's done are Q&A, Taps, Falcon & The Snowman, French Kiss, and Iceman, which is way better than you'd think it would be, considering the plot is so much like Encino Man. People think Timothy Hutton didn't do any good movies after winning the Oscar for Ordinary People, but that's not true. John Lone is an excellent actor, you won't even be able to believe that this is the same guy/actor from The Last Emperor. Iceman is really worth a look just for John Lone's performance, it's a brilliant performance to watch. It's truly a brilliant performance by Lone, and probably one of the best portrayals I've ever watched in a film of an actor playing a Neandrathal Man. I'm not sure how John Lone didn't get nominated for any kind of awards here(I mean he's even academy award nomination worthy here as his portrayal as the Neandrathal Man). Lot's of crazy ideas/concepts being thrown out there. So with Iceman, this is a very thought driven movie. CAVEMAN ENCASED IN ICE MOVIEThe older movies had better stories and were more clever about their action and special effects, and actually I preferred the not so fancy special effects, in my opinion, it kind of ruins a movie nowadays it seems because it's just too much CGI and too much action. The difference is they didn't have the technology to make what they do today, which in actuality is usually too much! Therefore though, that's what people like, so that's what you get nowadays, tons of special effects with the same type of action, CGI, with little or no story. ![]() This is what I love about Movies back in the 80's and 90's, and really just older movies in general, you can see the difference. ![]()
