Something new every time! - By: James Gallen, 05 Dec 2007 
This is another rendition of an American classic. I had seen this movie & read the bookin the past, so was there really anything new this time? We watched it as a school project for my daughter. She watched it as a teenager, my wife watched it as a teacher & I watched it as a lawyer and, for tonight, at least, a part-time tutor. We each saw somethingin it that we had not appreciated before. For me, the courtroom scenes were interesting, but I identified more with Atticus, the father, than Atticus the lawyer. No matter how often you have watched thisin the past, you will find something new to admire when you watch it again. Never stop!
Great movie - By: I AM ME, 01 Nov 2007 
This is a great movie, & it is one of the bestinterpretations of a novel that I have seen, but like almost everything, I enjoyed the book a little bit more, needless to say I can hardly fault it, & I highly enjoyed it
It is the 1930's & the tale is told through teh eyes of a young girl called Scout. The world around her is filled with racism & prejudice, & Jem ( & her family ) has to struggle to do the right thingin dire circumstances. They enjoy annoying their reclusive neighbour, Boo Radley, & trying to get him to come out of his house, but the most important storyline is that of Atticus ( Scouts Dad ) defending a black man accused of the rape of a white man on trial.
There is nothing much bad to say about the movie, it is well acted, good plot, & nice old fashioned movie, I highly recommend it.
Well done - By: B. Chandler, 28 Jan 2007 I was surprised at how well all the elements came together for this film. Obviously the main cohesion is centered on Atticus Finch (Gregory Peck) & his relationship with his children, Scout (Mary Badham) & Jem (Philip Alford). I would classify this as one of Gregory peck's best movies. It almost had to be shotin black & whit to have the feel neededin the all but black & white movie.
Scout & Jem know very little about their neighbor 'Boo' (Robert Duvall.) They have heard & made up strange stories. They spend time daring each other & their summer friend, to go up to the neighbor house as it holds some mysterious crazed person. Through the movie many odd things happen such as a tree that mysteriously offers a series of objects from marbles to a watch, among other things. What do we really know about our neighbors? Watch as the mystery unfolds. And what will they find outin this slice of lifein the Depression-era South.
