Absolutely the worst movie.

A waste of 90 minutes of my life

Excellent characters with emotional depth. My wife, daughter and granddaughter all enjoyed it...and me, too! Very good movie! You won't be disappointed.

It's easily one of the freshest, sharpest and most enjoyable films of this year.

Matthew Modine is completely successful in portraying two identical in appearance but different in character twins (one is timid and bland, the other slick and confident), but beyond functioning as a showcase for his acting skills (Lara Flynn Boyle also gives one of her better performances), this film appears to have no other point. You might expect it to go mystical, or supernatural, or simply thriller-ish, but it's really a quirky yet basically straightforward drama. One of the two Modine characters sums it up best at one point when he says something like "It doesn't mean anything, it's just a big circle". But hey, that IS a spectacular 360° shot of Grand Canyon we get at the end! ** out of 4.

This and Rudolph's "Trouble in Mind" seem, to me, to be companion pieces. They both take place in a future that serves to create a mood around the characters rather than spectacle for the audience. They seem to be almost completely forgotten with no DVDs on the cards, and that is a shame since they are both terrific.Equinox contains great work from Matthew Modine, Lara Flynn Boyle and Kevin J. O'Connor in particular, but this is a quality production from top to bottom. The twin storyline threatens to drag this into the trash but the script dodges a lot of the tiresome clichés that you would expect from reading the synopsis or tag line. Please ignore the poor rating and bad reviews on IMDb. This one has been severely overlooked.

One of Alan Rudolph's finest; this is a deliriously atmospheric tale of separated twins, lost love and searching. It is a heady brew propelled by Rudolph's sensitive direction, great performances from Modine and Flynn-Boyle and wonderful cinematography and score. Leisurely paced and dreamy this is not for all tastes but the Romantic vision and pervasive melancholy make it a rewarding piece of cinema.

1st watched 9/10/1998 - 5 out of 10(Dir-Alan Rudolph): Strange tale of twin brothers going their separate ways after being adopted. The film leaves too many questions unanswered and finishes so abruptly that it seems to have been cut short in production. A longer and complete story could have been better.
