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.

Spotlight customer reviews: 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 HBO miniseries Comment: seemybooks2 NEVER SENT THIS ITEM. I sent them a note as Amazon suggested but never got a response. I have read reviews of others who experienced the same disappointment. I am wondering how I can get my money back because this company must have gone out of business. This has been very disappointing as this was my one present for my husband. Thank you. Lelly Smith Customer Rating: Summary: Excellent movie Comment: This was an excellent movie. The makeup and little details in the movie made this very authentic. Tom Hanks and co. did a fantastic job in producing this. Normally any productions he has been behind are well worth watching and this movie backs up that statement. Customer Rating: Summary: Excellent Comment: This video is a great depiction of the turbulent times surrounding the birth of the United States. Excellent attention to details of the way life was. Insightful description of the characters; no rose-colored glasses here. Customer Rating: Summary: John Adams Comment: Superb in every respect. And so heartening to know it was a totally American production. More Reviews
