Thumbs Up!

Rating: 10/10 (11 August 2000)

The Exorcist is shocking. The movie starts off slow and builds in excitement until the very end. Some people say movies that make you think are the best. I disagree. The best are like the Exorcist where you don't think about anything. You just watch in amazement on what's going on. You are not thinking the movie would be better if or what's going to take place next. Your mind is clearly on the movie. For example, when Reagan turns her head around and says, "You see what she did?" I was completely glued to the screen and I think you will be too. In fact, from then on I was hooked. Even better yet, it's like riding a rollercoaster with each new drop even better than the last.
Everything about the movie is first rate. Ellen Burstyn acting is excellent. The script is great. The special effects are great. The direction is superb. I seen thousands of movies, and the Exorcist is the best.
