Rating: - He Who Hesitates....A Case for Commitment!
Peter Masterson directs another tender film in the manner of his 'The Trip To Bountiful'. Based on the play by Larry Ketron (who also wrote the screenplay) THE ONLY THRILL follows the lives of four people over a period of 30 years, a time frame that wisely incorporates all the changes that happened between the 1960s and into 1996. Not only is this a strong story about relationship possibilities, it is a chronicle of the changing mores from the decade of 'Love' to the decade of dissolution: social changes here documented make a lasting impression on those of us who have lived that time frame. ...

Rating: - A Beautiful Way To Go!
This movie "The Only Thrill" was brilliantly cast with Diane Keaton as(Carol) and Sam Shepard as(Reece). The movie had such love and caring of two people who spent all their time together. One who has love and the other who cares and is afraid of love. I am certain with the love, laughs, ups and downs you will cry, but I promise you it will be The Only Thrill you need. Great movie, Diane Keaton, Sam Shepard ... Read More
Rating: - Don't Wait Until it is Too Late
"The Only Thrill" tells the story of two people (Diane Keaton and Sam Shepard) who are destined to be together, but because of certain insecurities, never do connect. Now their kids, her daughter and his son are falling in love and are about to make the same mistake their parents did.
This was a wonderful story that brought tears to my eyes (not many movies do that to me) in certain parts as well as laughter. One of the things that I loved was how they showed the characters through the course of about 30 years. It was such a bittersweet and wonderful movie to watch.
Rating: - There is Still a Chance for Love
Sam Shepard and Diane Keaton light up the screen as two people who are meant to be together, but are kept apart by fear. What I really loved about this movie was how it started in the 1960s and eventually ended up in the present day. Diane Lane and Robert Patrick were wonderful as the daughter and son of Carol (Keaton) and Reece (Shepard), respectively. And they are headed down the same path as Carol and Reece were, until something changes their minds. If you like romance movies, this is a wonderful one to rent or buy. The performances by all four leads are excellent. The drama is what pulled ... Read More
Rating: - good for a rainy night
This movie is good for a rainy night, when you're feeling bored and not in the mood for an overly-drenched romance. This movie balances romance and drama well. The point of this movie is to tell your significant other only three words: "i love you", but to the two couples in this movie, it's taking them a lifetime to say it. I thought the plot was sweet,also the actors, but you find yourself thinking "come on! just hurry up and say 'i love you!'".. though i like this movie, i have a few thoughts based on the plot. The plot seems too general- like every part seems superficial. I wanted to see the actors ... Read More
