Spotlight customer reviews: Customer Rating: Summary: Paul Giamatti is awsome and this miniseries is another HBO Smash! Comment: BUY THIS MINISERIES!!! Paul Giamatti is awsome as John Adams. This miniseries is the greatest Hollywood produced civil war era cinema made to date. Its also very historically accurate so you can actually learn a little something. Customer Rating: Summary: very pleased Comment: This series very made very well made. Pleasantly suprised. My whole family was able to enjoy these with the exception of having to fast forward two parts (just because of my extra small children). I would highly recommend this series for anyone wanted to get a look at John Adams and the world in his time. Customer Rating: Summary: John Adams Comment: This is an outstanding series, very well researched. Acting was outstanding and they did an excellent casting of characters. I would highly recommend. I viewed the three discs on three separate nights but when I watch it again I'll probably do an all-nighter to keep the flow better. Customer Rating: Summary: John Adams (the HBO series) Comment: We had watched this from Netflix and liked it so much we bought it from Amazon. Now we're sharing it with our grown children. The series makes the history come alive and the people more real. It was wonderful. Customer Rating: Summary: Missing Disc Comment: When we went to view the DVD, we found two disc 2's and no disc3. Amazon fixed the problem, but what a pain. More Reviews
Editorial Reviews: John Adams is a sprawling HBO miniseries event that depicts the extraordinary life and times of one of Americas least understood, and most underestimated, founding fathers: the second President of the United States, John Adams. Starring Paul Giamatti (Sideways, Cinderella Man, HBOs American Spendor) in the title role and Laura Linney (You Can Count on Me, Kinsey) as Adams devoted wife Abigail, John Adams chronicles the extraordinary life journey of one of the primary shapers of our independence and government, whose legacy has often been eclipsed by more flamboyant contemporaries like George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Alexander Hamilton and Benjamin Franklin. Set against the backdrop of a nations stormy birth, this sweeping miniseries is a moving love story, a gripping narrative, and a fascinating study of human nature. Above all, at a time when the nation is increasingly polarized politically, this story celebrates the shared values of liberty and freedom upon which this country was built.
