TUCK EVERLASTING MOVIE SERIES
This film bears comparison to the Highlander movies and TV series and a bit ofĬomparison to Sean Connery's science fiction classic Zardoz. As the film builds Kingsley grows more evil and more serpentine, he will really creep you out. Only certain people should enjoy immortality.

One of the things that I liked about Tuck Everlasting is that it conceded that in Reviewed by bkoganbing 8 / 10 A secret worth keeping While this lacks certain elements from the novel and the musical, it moves briskly and makes its point which I have greatly accepted: a life well lived needs an ending, and hopefully, you go out with applause and thumbs up for a job well done. Kingsley makes a great villain, his character amply described in the musical as an "evil banana". Along with Dianne Wiest and Alan Arkin in "Edward Ecissorhands", these two rank as the best surrogate parents in film history. William Hurt, who has played his share of villains and heroes, is wise and humble as Jackson's father who provides the film's moral. I've always been a Sissy Spacek fan, and she is totally lovely as the kindly mother who takes Biedel under her wing as if she were her own daughter. Moving performances by the entire cast (which includes Amy Irving as the heroine's mother and Victor Garber as her father) make this truly worth watching, as does the very direct way that the screenplay presents the story. Jackson falls in love with Biedel whom his older brother is forced to kidnap when she discovers the secret, and the presence of a mysterious Man in the Yellow Suit Ben Kingsley threatens to destroy their hiding place and reveal the secret, giving the potential of making them into freaks. It occurs in the woods in the back of the Foster mansion in the self, where Jackson's father William Hurt and mother Sissy Spacek make their home, hiding out because they are destined to live forever. "Do not fear death, but only the unloved life." that is the theme for the book, two movies and the new Broadway musical. In the opening scene, he drives up to an old southern mansion on a motorcycle, and the film flashes back many years to when he had first met the heroine (Alexis Biedel) whom he fell in love with. Jonathan Jackson, the handsome and innocent-looking Lucky Spencer from "General Hospital", is the innocent young boy who is older than he seems.
