@@wordman3624 Um no, it's a good movie, the issue is it was released literally around the same time as True Lies and The Lionking. Like look at the box office and movie attendance figures from around that time, it was actually off to a good start and was going to have a decent run, that literally got cut off the week True Lies came out, then Lion King. Just bad luck and bad timing.
Yes, the Tulku explained at the start of the film, after he was kidnapped and trained to become the Shadow: I also know that for as long as you can rememember, you struggled against your own black heart and always lost. You are tortured spirit. Your very face change as the beast claws it way out from with you. You're in great pain, aren't you? You know what evil lurks in the hearts of men, for you have seen that evil in your own heart. Every man pays for redemption. This is your's.
Very rarely do literary characters translate to the silver screen without compromise. The Shadow looks as though they peeled him right off the pulp! Like Christopher Reeve was to Superman, Baldwin was a prime catch for the character. The "false face" he conjures before donning his costume was such a clever way to make him resemble the pulp depictions and further disguise Cranston should he be compromised. It must take him much mental discipline to keep this effect up during his activities, a further testament to his "psychic endowment."
MY OWN THOUGHTS ON THE YEAR1994 MOVIE OF (The SHADOW) I enjoyed seeing it, and to add at the time I thought it was great. Now I strongly feel that the character hero known as (The Shadow) deserves the right to have a show series be created of it, and to add I think that it should be shown on the broadcast network of (AMAZON Prime).
The one thing I never understand is, why does he always gets two drinks? One for himself and one for an empty chair. He does it a couple of times in this movie.
I demand Hollywood reboot The Shadow for this generation, but then again Hollywood sucks. I hope Netflix can reboot The Shadow. As a kid when this came out I often wondered why isn't there a sequel to this or even the Rocketeer. Then growing up and realizing why it didn't get a sequel...just sucks.
you can't reboot the shadow for "this generation", it won't work. this generation would expect way too much and it would more than likely change the character for the worse. they tried this in the comics in the mid 80's and it just did not work, all it did was piss off the older fans and for a brief period bring in newer fans who quickly went away. the movie never got a sequel because it did poor at the box office mostly due to the fact that it got lost in the shuffle between the lion king and forrest gump. had it not been for that and the ending being botched i think they would have made a sequel for sure.

Baldwin is great in 'The Shadow', but the film is a mess. Great production design and the cast list is impressive, Goldsmith's score is good, but it's very tricky trying to do a 1930's pulp story right in 1996. It's a very hard ask. It probably would have been better not to so deliberately play up the pulpy nature of the character and setting and style.
they need to go back to this type of filming style and directing just like batman the movie the grit and feel of wonder is no longer in movies it's so hollow and empty that's why the lion king is still in theaters in 2018 and it came out when I was a kid.
Shame what Alec Baldwin has become today. He was so underrated in the late 80s and 90s. I mean, not to some but to me he had a lot of potential. He just got terrible movie scripts. He was a runner-up for Batman for the 1989 film. I think that would have been neat, but Michael Keaton owned that role.

This movie is criminally underrated I miss the 90s my childhood.
I never understood why this film failed. It's absolutely entertaining.
Because it's not very good.

My Favorite Superhero!!
This scene is hilarious,she's immune to his powers
Beautifully underrated film❤️🎞️
Alec Baldwin probably wishes he had that power of mind control now.
his darkside looks like his younger brother
straight up could have used Daniel Baldwin for the shadow
@@FansFAX this movie was before he could Act
Trent Reznor.
Jedi mind tricks don't work on her.
rigurat only money
Who does he think he is, some kind of Jedi?!
@@DSMTheEditor Lamont can cloud people's mind
@@DSMTheEditor *YOU WILL FORGET ABOUT ME.... YOU WILL GIVE ME NO FURTHER THOUGHT!!!*
Make sense since George Lucas created both the Jedi and the sith that as an inspiration from The Shadow
He's probably thinking, "This has never happen tome before"
That is exactly what he is thinking.
Margo dress and fur 🔥🔥👍🏾
I really love this movie.
Me too. I just brought the blue ray.
Very underrated movie. What a shame.
Love her dress.
I WANT THIS DARK SHADOW POWER
Man, does anyone else notice that when he becomes the Shadow, his face actually changes?? Like it's not Alec Baldwin's face, it's someone else....
Yeah.... That's intentional.
@@axledog7297 I am glad that I am not the only one who noticed this epic moment!
I thought it was
Liam Neeson.
@@chipngo9758 It is actually Alec Baldwin with makeup and prosthetics on his face.

Yeah, um, when someone says they're working on some sort of implosive device, you don't just brush that off.

That is a hot dress
Worn by an even hotter woman.

People perhaps say the same about you!
@@danivarius perhaps they don't? And and if they do I really don't give a damn
I love the 1930's that-never-was comic dramas: The Shadow, Rocketeer, Dick Tracy, The Phantom. I hope that genre comes back. Great adventures.
if netflix does it it will be black transgender lgbt++ 'shadow' that blends in the light ....
I wish I was like the Shadows in real life to fight crimes and have an adventure too.
Does she say "Mandarin" instead of "Chinese" in a different version?
special movie

Disagree also. I think they did a great job with what they had.
