Note de Lord Onim
Just finished watching The Man from Earth a few minutes ago. My first impression was just WOW. Early on in this film though, the acting felt a bit poor, as in not very convincing. However, that soon changed as the film progressed, and I started to realise what a clever movie this really is. Only after a few minutes the excitement started to build up. At this point TMFE really "owns" you, and just won't let go until the end. It's clever because it never really lets you in on all the secrets, there's always a little shadow of doubt.
I believe the movie could be put into comparison with a magic night which you never want to end. Exactly that is how I felt towards this movie. It was captivating, from beginning to end.
Moreover, this motion picture felt a bit short. Maybe John could have been developed further, maybe it could have gone deeper. I also thought it ended a little bit too soon and I was not entirely satisfied, despite the ending being plausible. Although I guess it had to follow Jerome Bixby's screenplay? That said, I must underline that the excitement that engulfed 99% of this movie outweighs the limited runtime. Overall this is an excellent movie that discusses important topics and really gets your mind working. I will certainly watch it again many times to come.
Kudos to the makers of this film. It was about time a science fiction movie of this type was made! I'm also thankful that you demonstrated that science fiction can be so much more than space ships and ray guns to the general public. I might even get some of my friends who are die hard non-SF fans to watch this. It is probably the best science fiction story since The Matrix. Very well done. 8/10

My opinion is that this is one of Clint Eastwood's better action
movies. The action sequences are straight-forward, but
sometimes they are somewhat overdone and it feels like if this is
one of the action movies with the most bullets fired.
Sometimes the action sequences are pretty dumb and you are of
the opinion of that they could have been made better. Despite that,
it is very forward-moving and never really pauses. Eastwood himself is very good (he usually is), as the quite slow
cop Ben Shockley, who is sent out to do what seams to be a minor
assignment. The casting of Sondra Locke as Gus Malley was not
the best choice though. She does not do a very good job in the
movie, at least not in the beginning, but there is nothing wrong with
her looks. Pat Hingle as Josephson, Shockley's friend and partner
in the movie, was rather good. It's a rather OK film to watch even
for those who are not Eastwood-fans.

Just like Crocodile Dundee this is a humor-packed film from beginning to end. Paul Hogan is as charming and charismatic as ever and the jokes are at five minute-intervals, enough to make it a somewhat serious (and sad) film.I am glad I stumbled across this film, as I think you will be.
