Great movie, incredible performances.

A must see for any PTA fan.

What did the board think of it?

It was weird as hell at times but I enjoyed it overall.

Phoenix was great in it, as well as Hoffman.

Absolutely HATED it when I watched it but after discussing it with a friend who really enjoyed it I'm thinking about rewatching with a different perspective.

Most people didn't care for it. I really liked it, and Phoenix gave the best performance that year, and I love DDL.

It's flawed, but it's a very fine film.

O look! Another thread on the Master!

Terrible movie that plodded along for far too long while managing to go nowhere all at the same time.

It was a character sketch more than a movie and it sucked arse.

The board is fairly well divided on it, though I think more disliked it than liked it.

I have it recorded and now I'm scared.

I'll watch it soon and I hope I like it.

I have no interest to ever watch it again and I love all of PTA's movies, except this one. This was a weak swing and a huge miss.

Sure it has some decent acting but the story is boring and could have been so much more.

this it drifted in between mesmerizing scenes and boredom. The dialogue wasn't great and that's really what it boils down to for me.

Your thread made me watch the trailer.

The trailer made me want to watch something else

I thought this thread was about the early-'80s NBC show of the same name.

You know...the cheesy ninja show starring Lee Van Cleef...
