Great Film overall

Absolutely the worst movie.

Movies so rarely touch the heart, and this one was perfect.

At First Sight (1999): Dir: Irvin Winkler / Cast: Val Kilmer, Mira Sorvino, Kelly McGillis, Steven Weber, Bruce Davison: Romantic drivel about both the physical blindness and the unawareness of love. Val Kilmer plays Virgil who has been blind since age three and regrets the fact that his father left him at age eleven. He seems to get around and has a passion for skating on a nearby pond. Mira Sorvino plays an architect named Amy who strolls into town establishes a friendship with him. She tells him of an eye surgery back home that may help him. This leads to a depressing conclusion in an attempt to get a tear from viewers who should realize that the screenwriter is cheating them. Director Irvin Winkler is at best when exploring Virgil's senses as when he listens to the rain. His previous film, The Net dealt with sense also but from a different perspective. Kilmer is at the mercy of romantic clichés when more about his dealings with his condition would have been more interesting. Sorvino labours under cardboard basically acting as the love interest. Kelly McGillis is wasted as Virgil's concern sister. Then there is Bruce Davison as a doctor out to give Kilmer sight so that he can see what a piece of junk he has been cast in. Is this film taking the whole blind condition and surgical possibilities seriously? Perhaps, but it is more likely that it is dull to the senses when factoring its giddy delivery. Score: 3 / 10

Tightly-wound New York architect Mira Sorvino (as Amy Benic) gets a rubdown from hunky blind masseur Val Kilmer (as Virgil Adamson), and the two fall in love (you guessed it) "At First Sight". One can see this coming as Mr. Kilmer's strong hands begin to caress Ms. Sorvino's body. This is very much how the entire film plays out. Everything is obvious. The main plot development is when Kilmer undergoes treatment to recover his sight, thanks to conveniently placed doctor Bruce Davidson (as Charles Aaron). Kilmer has some good scenes after the operation, sister Kelly McGillis (as Jennie) makes the most of her supporting role, ex-husband Steven Weber (as Duncan Allanbrook) makes you want to see him win, and vision therapist Nathan Lane (as Phil Webster) gets in a few good lines. Director Irwin Winkler's most valuable player is clearly cinematographer John Seale.***** At First Sight (1/12/99) Irwin Winkler ~ Val Kilmer, Mira Sorvino, Kelly McGillis, Nathan Lane

I happened to come across this movie one night on cable. I have to say I'm sorry I didn't see it in the cinema. Val Kilmer did an excellent job playing a blind man, and the struggles it entails as he adjusts from his dark world, to a seeing one, and having to adjust to loosing it all again. I could't help but get wrapped up in his struggles to adjust, the frustration he feels when he tries to adjust to the seeing world and what Amy (Mira S) expects of him as his eyes begin to fail him once again. I was surprised to see, at the end of the movie, that it was based on a true story. Hats off to Val Kilmer for job well done - he was very believable.
