Subject: Very recommended
Reminded me of a cross between It's A Wonderful Life and Hero. Well worth the watch!

Subject: Phenomenal Movie
Meet John Doe is one of the best films ever! Cabra is brilliant; this one is right up there with my favorite movie, It's A Wonderful Life. All the actors did a fine job. Barbara Stanwyck is amazing here, as she is in all her films. The scene towards the end is amazing and Stanwyck gave a great delivery; I especially loved when she mentioned Christ and what He did for humanity. Can't say enough good things about this one. It is a shame that more movies these days don't have the heart that this one does. A must-see for all people of all ages.

Subject: I thought it was enjoyable and well acted.
The characters and dialougue are enjoyable and entertaining. The developing dynamic between the main man and the leading lady is fun to watch. The movie has an engaging, original plot and a novel community spirited message.

Subject: Mediocre Capra
I'm not sure what I was expecting. I suppose a cross between It's a Wonderful Life, Mr. Smith, and Arsenic and Old Lace, all of which are phenomenal films. Instead John Doe is a rather dull, overlong, and profoundly unfunny movie. I suppose there is a meaningful underlying message. I suppose the acting is better than average. But in the end, John Doe disappoints.

Subject: Le meilleur Capra
Quelle chance de pouvoir trouver ici ce excellentissime film de Capra. Dans la grande lignée de films comme La vie est Belle, M. Smith au Sénat, M. Deeds... c'est un film qui regonfle, remonte le moral pour repartir à l'assaut de la vie quotidienne.
Gary Cooper y est formidable, Barbara Stanwyck magnifique et Edward Arnold, en second rôle de méchant totalement réussi.
Difficile de trouver des défauts à ce chef-d'oeuvre. A voir et revoir sans modération.

Subject: Tracking in some players incorrect
There have been complaints that the MPEG-2 file for the movie is incomplete. The file is complete, but the tracking is off, so the length of the movie may appear to be much less than it is in real time.

Subject: a true classic
Many think of Capra films as sappy, but I find his films inspiring. "Meet John Doe" and "It's a Wonderful Life" are two of my favorite holiday films.
