Oh What could have been! - 3.75 out of 5 (8/24/2000)
The life of Robert Downey Jr. Has been something of atumultuous one. A rollercoaster of applauded roles and bad life decisions have assured him a place in infamy.
But, just we are clear, you have not wandered onto the local internet gossip sheet. This review has none of the spicy stuff about Downey, other than the fact that this ironically made him a perfect choice to play Charlie Chaplin who was also guilty of some poor decisions.

A Must-See - 4.75 out of 5 (1/30/2006)
I first saw this movie on cable TV and I had to own it on DVD. Robert Downey Jr. is brilliant in this movie and has a great supporting cast. It will make you laugh, it will make you cry. It focuses on Chaplin's somewhat dark side, but it also explores his genius as a filmmaker and director. If you love Charlie Chaplin it a definite must-see!

This is a really, really goo

A good film-tribute to Charles Chaplin a master in silence comedy. - 4.75 out of 5 (7/15/1998)
This film really fills your heart with a great chemistry. Robert Downey Jr´s best role ever as Charles Chaplin who brought so much joy in the youth of film-making. Kevin Kline makes a heart-filling performance Douglas Fairbanks.
And the film also has other good actors like Anthony Hopkins, Dan Aykroyd, Paul Rhys, James Woods, Kevin Dunne and actresses like Chaplin´s daughter Geraldine Chaplin as his mommy Hannah, Marisa Tomei, Penelope Ann Miller, Moira Kelly, Nancy Travis, Diane Lane, Milla Jo
