Bed & Breakfast Audience Reviews

Alicia I love this movie so much
Scarlet The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.
Justina The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.
Billy Ollie Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable
shawhore The look and feel of this straight-to-dustbin film is exceptionally poor at best; I'm pretty surprised an actor of Roger Moore's calibre agreed to this poppycock. If you are indeed looking to spend 1hr 37mins of your life watching a film with great dialogue; a slick narrative; subplots and defined characters, then good luck trying to find it in this garbage. It is however, very quickly, worth mentioning Roger Moore putting in a typically assured performance - playing Roger Moore. There is as well, I suppose, some slight titillation in the film for women of a certain age, as we see that famed brow raising far more than just a menopausal pulse or two.The film also stars Talia Shire (better known as Burt Young's sister in the Rocky films) and some other people.We start the film with Adam (Moore) taking a refreshing swim after being thrown from a yacht by a gang of unconvincing mobsters - all sporting regulation sunglasses, baggy suits, lacquered hair, and all providing limited acting ability. Moore, I mean Adam, is soon washed ashore a picturesque New Hampshire coastline suffering amnesia, and is taken in by three generations of women who live close by.It doesn't take Moore too long to ingratiate himself with Grandmother, Mother and Daughter (Shire plays the mother); scoring free bed and board by doing jobs around their home, and standing around looking more tanned than usual. The three of them are soon under the spell of Adam (no surprise there) and the rest of the film meanders around his relationship with each of the women.Although Moore takes a decent stab at trying to act his way through this tripe and elevate the tone of the film: with the odd one-liner here, and the slight baring of chest there. In spite of this, he is sadly let down by the rest of the cast, and this appalling script. Even the eyebrow was fighting a losing battle in this dross. As for the rest of the film, well the less said the better.4 stars for Moore, and 2 for the eyebrow.
fandangonoir Roger Moore, my fave Bond, finally gets a chance to show his acting chops. This flick is about a mysterious stranger who comes into the lives of three very different women and has a gorgeous Maine setting.The only weak point is an out of place crime subplot. But it's wrapped up not too shabbily by the cast, director, and screenwriter. The screenplay could've been better, but all in all it's a mildly amusing, slight, harmless movie.This film made me also realize that actor Jake Weber, who plays a hitman in this film, was not Alan Cumming. I always thought Alan was the guy from Meet Joe Black. They look so much alike, I guess it was easy for me to confuse them as the same dude.I just wish old Rog would do some more dramatic roles in films like this. I always thought it would be great if Stanley Kubrick had cast Roger in Sydney Pollack's role in Eyes Wide Shut. Kinda like how Quentin Tarantino took a chance on Robert Forester, another under appreciated actor, in Jackie Brown. Ah, well, what might have been...But I, as usual, well, not that usual, digress. See Bed & Breakfast. Dig?
gridoon Roger Moore (who, incidentally, has always been my favorite Bond)gives a relaxed and enjoyable performance, and he seems to be in surprisingly good shape, too, considering his age. But the rest of the film is dull, awkwardly directed, with a needless "crime movie" subplot. Talia Shire gives her typical performance.
Ffolkes-3 I've got two favorite Robert Ellis Miller films - "Hawks" (featuring Timothy Dalton) and "Bed & Breakfast" (featuring Roger Moore , Colleen Dewhurst and Talia Shire) which originally was considered as a TV movie , but it was found very interesting so it was shown at cinemas. (The film was made in 1989 but it was first shown in 1992.)I'm not surprised because it's one of the best movies I've ever seen. Whole cast is just great but especially Roger Moore who proves that he's someone more than the Saint or Bond. He's a great actor.
