Watch Max Dugan Returns For Free

Did you people see the same film I saw?

This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.

Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.

Despite having Charlie Lau helping Mathew Broderick's character in his hitting, the high school baseball scenes were completely unrealistic and look like a bad Pony League game. I cannot see a high school coach treat a varsity level game in this manner. Make the umpires look like real umpires, too.Another thing, high school baseball is only seven innings and they are playing in the ninth inning. Come on, a little research here. A simple detail like this really ruins movies with sporting scenes that are filled with these kinds of errors.Being involved with sports, some mistakes like this type of thing can lose any credibility. Movies need to make sporting events to look realistic, especially down to the officials. I see too often referees and umpires in out-of-date uniforms (I mean vintage 1940s) and doing things most trained officials would never do.

Probably one of the best Neil Simon has done. The story is based on a widowed schoolteacher raising her teenage son on her paltry salary and trying to raise him to be a good person but her long lost terminally ill father reenters her life seeking to spend his last six months with her and his grandson. Complicating matters is he is also bringing along a satchel with 647 thousand dollars he skimmed off a casino while working as a blackjack dealer. Although the money was originally his when he owned the land the casino he stole from "legally separated" him from it, his daughter is still worried about the influence of such dealings on her son. There is also a special appearance by the late Charlie Lau, former batting coach for the Chicago White Sox. Great for the whole family.

Neil Simon, did ya read Les Miserables recently? To say that this movie is loosely based on a modernized version of that book would be accurate; the script would be totally different if Victor Hugo never existed. Let's run down the list of parallels. Robards is Jean-Valjean: he served time in prison and now dedicates his life to the happiness of a young child, Matt(Cossette). Like Valjean, he has three aliases and --SPOILER-- disappears at the end. Although in Les Miserables, Hugo meant his disappearance to symbolize death. Robards' life in this movie revolves around being pursued and followed by a detective(Javert in Les Miserables). Javert's life-long ambition was to wrest Valjean, just as Sutherland becomes obsessed with this concept as it applies to Robards. Simon's theme is that family ought to be highly valued--one of the multiple themes contained in Hugo's novel. Swirl corny 80's elements--the baseball games--into to the rancid bowl, and a movie compiled of Hugo's ideas forms.This "comedy" has some other horrific extras that force the characters to act like slow-witted Kawala bears. When Robards goes out in public, he wears a dark jacket, a black hat, and sunglasses...because that doesn't look suspicious at all. Were you trying to look like a criminal, Roby?If you're into typical family-oriented 80's slosh(and many people evidently are) then I recommend this film with one reservation. Sutherland and Robards, the two best actors in this treasure, only have one scene together because that makes sense!

I thought that "Max Dugan Returns" was fun to watch in class. I think that every character was interesting, plus they had different things to talk about.Neil Simons story "Max Dugan Returns" has positive and negative opinions to talk about, but most of mine are positive. Neil Simons did a really good job of making and writing the movie. The part that I thought was negative was when Jason Robards as "Max Dugan" had to lie to his grandson. Max Dugan lied this grandson Matthew Broderick "Michal McPhee" several times and did not tell him who he really was. I liked the way Max Dugan treated his family, he was nice to Michael. Max Dugan the got them everything. He got her a car, he got Michael a new stereo system. Neil Simon put alot of good and fun parts this movie.This movie "Max Dugan Returns" shows a family problem. Max Dugan abandoned Nora Mcphee when she was a little girl and she thought that he had died a long time ago. Max Dugan came back to Nora Mcphee and he wanted to apologise for his mistake, and so he got her all of those good things like a car. Nora Mcphee didn't want the money that Max Dugan was giving her, because she thought it was stolen. The thing is that he came back for her and his grandson. Max Dugan thought that giving her money will make her take his apology, but she didn't care about the money. I think that it was a good idea for him to go and look everyone too. family is always important.Max Dugan has positive and negative things to talk about. Max Dugan made a bad decision gambling and steeling money. I think that was a very bad thing to do. Jason Robards has mostly all positive performances because he was a really good actor. Max Dugan came back to his family. He was so funny and I liked the way he was, he was just too funny and he did very good positive stuff towards his family. One more negative. He lied to his grandson about who he was but at the end it turned out to be ok. Jason Robards is a very good actor and he was #1 in this movie.Marsha Mason, was a very good actress in this movie. She shows something very special. Nora showed that she still care about her father. She was very funny, I liked the way way she acted when she lost her motorcycle and when stole her car. I liked the way she talk to the policeman "Brain Costello". She really liked him and he liked her.She acted really good when she didn't want the policeman to go into her house so she wouldn't see Max Dugan.Donald Sutherland "Brian Castello" the policeman, acted really good in this movie. I liked it when he gave Nora a motorcycle and she lost it. Then Max Dugan got her a new car. Next Brian got a face like"what the heck" where is the bike. He did a really good role in the movie. In the beginning of the movie I thought that he was going to be mean and bad but he turned out to be a really good guy. He acted really good in this movie.Matthew Broderick was the teenager "Michael Mcphee".OK now he was the funniest one out in all the actors. He did the movie "Godzilla" an alot more movies and I love all of his movies. I was really glad to see this movie and have him in it. He is so funny. He did a really good job doing this movie. I loved the way he acted when he got his new system and when he saw the motorcycle gone and then a new car. He was the best.
