Worth the watch
I read the book in high school. Granted, I don't remember much of what it was about these many years later. I enjoyed the movie very much. The acting was great, and it was set in an era that I enjoy seeing on film. It did have it's sad moments though. John Malkovich and Gary Sinise got totally into their characters as Lenny, a mentally challenged individual and George, his best friend who looks out for him. They land another job as migrant workers on a farm in California. As the movie progresses, it became very noticeable to me how frustrating it was for George to look out for Lenny all the time. I actually felt his frustration. Trouble followed everywhere they tried to start over. Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed this film. If you enjoy watching depression era movies set in the south, I think you'll like it too.

A great movie based on a great book !
I love the original book Of Mice and Men by John Steinbeck and I am pleased that this movie stays very faithful to it's source material probably one of the best adaptations of a book to a movie. The movie follows the story of two friends George Milton and Lennie Small working on a ranch to make money to one day own a ranch of their own. The movie follows the book's story very well even taking lines directly from the book. The actors play their parts well except for Curly's wife who's personality deviates from the book a little but she gives a great performance. I love how the film takes place entirely in the farm and don't try to go somewhere else. My only cons with this movie was that I feel like the theme of loneliness aren't as present in the movie as the book. And also SPOILER ALERT ! I was very annoyed that the scene where Lennie, Candy and Crooks are berated by Curly's wife is not in the movie. That was an important scene in the book because it reinforced the idea that the barn and the farm are a microcosm. They characters act just like their book counterparts and all the scenes are played out really well. This is probably one of the best movie based on book. The blu ray also has a bunch of bonus features and looks great. I rate the movie an 8/10

Of Mice and Men
I enjoy watching this film every once in a while , so I felt it was only right to buy it for my none stop growing blu ray collection! I’m always reminded of high school watching this film as we had to read the book in English 10 and right after finishing the book we got to watch this movie in class . I would say everyone should watch this film at least once in their lives !! “Tell me about the rabbits George” will always be stuck in my mind from this movie alone .

Better than the 1939 original
The service was fine for this excellent 1992 movie. It’s not often I will say this but I thought this was better than the black and white original from 1939. John Malkovich was simply amazing as the tragic Lenny. Gary Sinise underplays perfectly as Lennys companion George, proving to be the perfect sparring partner for Malkovich’s Lenny. Gary Sinise also directed this version and he did such an excellent job I was surprised to hear he never got behind the camera again. But it’s the Malkovich show in this movie and he blew me away with his riveting performance as Lenny. Would highly recommend.

Excellent version
I bought this DVD for our school's collection of films used in comparing and discussing the differences between the book and the film version. The best proof of this film's quality was the total silence during the viewing.

LE film à voir !
Les relations humaines abordées sous l'angle de l'amitié sans faille... Une belle fidélité à l'oeuvre originale, des grands acteurs que l'on suit avec un immense plaisir du début à la fin.
