Wow, could Bradley Cooper be ANY dreamier??? I doubt it, because with each movie he's in he seems to just get sexier and more suave... be still, my heart, lol! No, but in all seriousness, I really liked him in this movie because he plays a character who isn't like anyone I've ever seen him play. His character has shades of grey and he isn't a bad man but he isn't exactly a stand up guy either. He's very flawed, and one of the mistakes he makes on his way up the ladder to success is to take credit for the one thing that makes him a national sensation as a writer. His character is very believable because we've all been in a situation where we could have done something bad and nobody would know (or we thought nobody would know) and then the truth comes out. I think Jeremy Irons is superb in the movie and I hope he gets nominated, he gave me chills in every scene!!! EEK!!! -
This movie was the cat's pajamas yo! So suspenseful, it had me on the edge of my seat in the theater all throughout, I was so curious as to how it would end! Suffice is to say it did not disappoint, thanks mostly to the awesome chemistry between Bradley Cooper and Jeremy Irons who plays the leads. I totally bought their relationship as thief and owner and I could see what the director and writer were trying to do by showing how guilt ridden Bradley Cooper's character was but also why Jeremy Irons's character was so unforgiving. It's pretty scary stuff at time but nothing my boy B Cooper cant handle (actually, doubt me when I say that!). Zoe Saldana is good too, though she's mostly there so that B Cooper has someone to get the original book from. I thought this was much better than "The Possession" and somehow managed to scare me a lot more than a ghost story. -
I was shocked to see that this movie garnered only 17% on rottentomatoes. I had seen the trailer and was deeply intrigued by the story so I knew I had to see it when it came out. Boy, am I glad that I didn't listen to the critics because this movie is SUPERB. It has it all: intrigue, suspense, romance, and the story of a man who tries to right but ends doing everything wrong. Basically it's the story of a struggling writer who happens upon a fantastic story written by somebody else but which he claims he wrote. The book goes on to be a smashing success and then one day, voila, the original author walks into his life and demands that the man pay for stealing his work. Bradley Cooper if good in his role as the wayward writer, but the scene stealer is Jeremy Irons who plays the part with such perfect relish that you can't help but root for him, even if he's kinda the bad guy. Just like when he played Scar in The Lion King. Really great movie, I'd even take my kids to it. -
I thought this film was way too confusing and pretentious and I did not like it at all and do not recommend seeing it in the theaters. It is a story within a story within a story and it is all way too literate and way too confusing and remarkably boring all in the same time. The characters are not developed enough and I did not really care for any of them to succeed or fail. The main problem is that Cooper’s character is a real jerk and there is no way to like him which makes the whole film pretty pointless. -
The Words is a film starring Bradley Cooper, Jeremy Irons, Dennis Quaid, Olivia Wilde and more. The movie definitely has an all star cast to boast. The Words revolves around a struggling writer (Bradley Cooper) who finally catches his big break and writes the next great novel. However, the twist is he didn’t really write it. This movie is a combination, or rather gracefully switches between a romance, thriller, and drama. I really liked this film. It was very interesting and a story I hadn’t really seen before. I can imagine this would be a great movie for novelists but honestly everyone would enjoy this film in my opinion. The movie was clever and fast paced and kept me interested the entire way through.
