3.5/4  Underated Thriller that keeps you interested!
Based on a clever premise, wonderfully photographed and scored, and seamlessly edited, "Frequency" is a near perfect package of suspense and "feel-good". Quaid, Caviezel and all the players gave very believable and intriguing performances ... (read full)

3/4  Frequency Quick Review
A surprisingly well-made drama with a sci-fi twist that works. It takes a low-key approach and keeps building and building. The idea may not be original, but the presentation makes it seem fresh.

5/5 Wish Fulfillment in an Entirely Entertaining Film
  by drkhimxz (Freehold, NJ, USA)
Having advanced degrees in neither Physics nor Metaphysics, I accept entirely the possibility that all the events transcribed in this satisfying opus could have happened and may well happen in the future. With the exception of the quite prosaic mode of communication between generations, all the action is a matter of everyday occurrences carried out in everyday style. The success of Director and Cast in maintaining that spirit of ordinariness is one of the two chief elements in carrying the day for the film. The second, even more important, is the prayerful wish fulfillment provided by the fundamentally ritualistic character of the film, that death does not sever the connection of generations and that nobody truly dies. Whatever the secular character of our minds there is always lurking at those deepest level of the human psyche the need to believe that neither we nor our loved ones die. It is at that level, through the fine work of the cast and the creators, that people felt much of their pleasure in the film.
Maybe not! At any rate, it is a film redolent of all those in movie history which have sought to convey the message that time and death can be defeated; it does a good job for what it seeks to be....something not quite as dramatically penetrating as Hamlet.

5/5 HIGHLY ENTERTAINING MIX OF SCI-FI, CRIME STORY AND DRAMA!
  by ! MR. KNOW IT ALL ;-b (TRI STATE AREA)
An interesting idea that blends family and crime drama with sci-fi elements to make a highly entertaining movie `Frequency' is one of the most entertaining films of its kind. Quaid and Caviezel hand in very good performances and make the unbelievable, well.... believable. Usually these types of films can be confusing and tedious, but because the center story about a boy losing his firefighter father at an early age is heartfelt, it makes up for any minor plot holes. Look fast for a young Michael Cera as John's son. The DVD has an excellent transfer and there are some interesting extras including commentary, deleted scenes and feature-ettes.

5/5 Unforgettable
  by R. Kyle (USA)
When a freak aurora borealis causes interferences in the airwaves, a father and son separated by the father's death are reunited via a shortwave radio.

That's a simple summary of what's a very complex and heartrending story. Sully (James Caviezel) is living in present day NYC in the house he grew up in. He comes across an old shortwave and hooks it up and manages to contact his Dad back in the past. He's a burned out cop whose relationship is going awry.

Frank (Dennis Quaid) is a loving firefighter Dad who gets an eerie message from his son in the future. "If you'd just gone the other way...instead of following your instincts..."

Together, these two guys work to change history....

I first saw "Frequency" in the theatre and had to buy the VHS, then upgrade to the DVD. This is one of my all-time favorite films. I have to watch every couple of years, cry, then put the film aside. This is not just a sci-fi story, but a compelling family story that depicts a love that transcends time and space.

5/5 Frequency a movie DVD
  by Nanlee Gilliom (Ft. Myers, FL USA)
The DVD Frequency with Dennis Quaid, includes Time travel, using a ham radio,that links the present with the past through an unusual storm and Northern lights. John Sullivan, played by Jim Caviezel, a cop, links to his father, Frank Sullivan,played by Dennis Quaid, a firefighter,who was lost to him due to a tragedy of a fire. The Scifi is intensive, but very interesting.
I recommend this to those who like Scifi and Time Travel. My order was promptly acknowledged and arrived in good time. The cost was within my means and the product is in excellent condition. nanlegf26
