Classical movie, one of my top 5. A great role played by Dustin Hoffman. Even Tom Cruise is tolerable in this movie. The plot is great and the acting phenomenal. A must see for everyone.

funny, warm, and emotional without being overly-sentimental and sticky, and I liked the way it ended - maybe not very conclusively, but with a great deal of satisfaction for the brother who started off being a pain in the neck, and grew into a likeable and more human kind of person.
