Rain Man (1988) - 4 stars

One Sentence Plot Summary: A self-centered yuppy embarks on a cross-country road trip with his newly-discovered brother who is autistic.

Starring: Dustin Hoffman, Tom Cruise, Valeria Golino, Gerald R. Molen, Jack Murdock, Michael D. Roberts, Lucinda Jenney, Bonnie Hunt, Beth Grant

Best of: Dustin Hoffman as Raymond.

Wost of: Tom Cruise as Charlie. While not a poor performance, the character could have been much more nuanced. I don't blame Cruise as much as I blame the script.

Notable: The movie was largely filmed in Cincinnati, the world's greatest city.
