Very best movie i ever watch

Powerful

everything you have heard about this movie is true.

A lot more amusing than I thought it would be.

Robin Williams gives one of his best performances ever in One Hour Photo. He creates a character that is both creepy and vulnerable, psycho and sympathetic. The movie itself is a little slow, but it is a creative and interesting film that investigates one man's obsession with photography.

In this film, Robin Williams gave life to Sy, an employee of a big store that works in the department of revelation of photographs. He is apparently competent and a good worker, but the truth is that he hides a fascination for a family he usually attend, the Yorkin's. When he realizes that the unity and joy of that family is in danger, he decides to act and protect the family.The film is not easy to digest. To begin with, the pace is slow, in order to construct the characters and plot in a more appropriate and perceptible way. Then you have the problem of the main character being dysfunctional and hard to like. Initially, he acts like a maniac, with an obsession with that family, to which he seems to wish to belong. We don't know if it's envy, if it's worship, if it's a mania. Even so, there is something rational about how he behaves, as we have seen in the explanations he gives to the police in the end. Another problem, especially for the more commercial audience, is the intellectual touches the film takes on regularly, in monologues or in discreet detail that many people may find boring or expendable. I confess, I enjoyed it.Little can be said about Williams' performance. He is brilliant. I never thought to see this actor, so attached to comedy and humorous characters, to give life to a character so dense and complex, with touches of villain, stalker and avenger punctuated with the sweetness of a lonely, needy and unhappy man. The remaining cast was also fine, but does not stand out and leaves room for Williams to shine as he deserves.Technically, this is a competent, but discreet film. Good cinematography, good light and color, good camera angles, and a discreet, yet capable, soundtrack. I would highlight the monologues, where the film shows some art.

Some horror movies (like the Halloween or Saw franchises, for instance) are easy to categorize, and you'll know exactly what you'll get when you push the "PLAY" button. Other films (like What Lies Beneath or The Others) start out as thrillers, but end up providing genuine scares in the process. "One Hour Photo" falls squarely into the latter category.The plot of this movie focuses on Cy Parrish (Robin Williams), a Photo Center associate at the Sav-Mart (a copyright-friendly Wal-Mart) retail store. Though at first it seems as if Cy is a friendly (albeit slightly strange) guy who puts his all into his rather mundane job, we quickly discover how close to the edge of sanity he really is.The hallmark of this movie is the slow progression of Cy Parrish into complete and utter insanity. At first, Cy just seems like a lonely old man who makes up for it by interacting positively with his customers. However, when a series of events challenges his views on life and frustrates him a bit, he quickly loses his grip on reality and goes to a place much darker than we would ever expect.The first time I saw this film, it truly creeped me out, something that doesn't happen all that often. The acting performance from Robin Williams (perhaps the finest of his entire career) creates a truly terrifying character that a part of us can all relate to.Thus, One Hour Photo is a surprisingly creepy suspense flick that thrives on excellent acting and an intense character study of a loner. Your film-developing experience (or retail in general) will never be the same.

No more Mork from Ork in this one. Here Robin Williams really shed his comedic persona to demonstrate his dramatic chops big time. Robin Williams had an impressive acting range, and his restrained role here really shines, and we're kept guessing until the end by what will happen.It's an intriguing concept, the one hour photo guy who obsesses over the "perfect" family, and sort of brings himself into their lives, only to be ripped apart when the father embarks on an affair. It's a shame Robin didn't get an Oscar nod for this, because he really excelled in this role, and he deserved better. Connie Nielsen also shines in this. This was two years after her performance in Gladiator.
