The refusal to play by traditional rules is thoroughly refreshing. Review
The love story isn’t as affecting and the drama isn’t as significant as many of its peers, but To Have and Have Not still boasts an exciting climax and a satisfying conclusion. Review
Instead, it feels confused, unfocused, and unsatisfying – perhaps a result of studio meddling and the director’s waning visionariness. Review
The Master of Suspense may prefer to manipulate his viewers, but he’s not so ruthless as to deprive them of a supremely satisfying finale. Review
His brand of monster is nuanced, unique, and highly cinematic. Review
May be low budget and devoid of stars, but the music by Edward Bilous is rather rousing, if a touch overdramatic. Review
It’s a fascinating study of crime and consequences, of love and fatalism, even if the parting shots are contrived and rushed – but also perversely poetic and redemptive. Review
By the end of this bloated, small-town crime saga, a few moderate (and guessable) surprises turn up, but they’re not shocking or severe enough to warrant such a long, meandering theatrical adaptation. Review
It may betray its genre intentions, but it’s nevertheless well-acted and routinely entertaining. Review
The central romance becomes a slight perversion on the love stories in Gone with the Wind and Wuthering Heights and Jezebel, yet with a hint of redemption that isn’t the least bit believable – and a climax that nods to Casablanca but lacks the sensibility and sentimentality. Review
Nicely complementing the violence is a pervasive tongue-in-cheek vibe. Review
Amid the haunted-house jump scares and the graphic violence, decent bits of humor work their way into the picture. Review
Surely one of the cleverest of the musical comedies of the ’30s, as well as, arguably, Astaire and Rogers’ greatest collaboration. Review
As a ripped-from-the-headlines police procedural, Frenzy is above average. But it’s somewhat lacking for Hitchcock, despite its fascinating deviations from his usual projects... Review
It’s original, confounding, and profound, though it culminates in an ending capable of exasperating half of its viewers, while giving the other half a glimmer of hope. Review
Actually could have been a touch longer, to detail a bit more of the characters’ predicaments, yet its fast pace, coupled with its use of history as an intermittent backdrop to love, is strangely, hauntingly unique. Review
Here, the thrills can never really be described as larger-than-life characters engaging in heroic undertakings; this world is dark, gritty, brutal, and unforgiving – yet uncommonly absorbing. Review
By the end, it doesn’t feel like a complete film, but it’s nonetheless effective, thought-provoking, and sweet. Review
The camaraderie, humor, and bittersweetness of the finale can’t overcome the strangeness of Lee’s fate, which doesn’t feel like fitting justice. Review
As insightful as it is colorful, and as cinematically entertaining as it is provocative. Review
It may not be a nail-biter, but the subject matter is educational, captivating, and entertaining. Review
This lack of verve carries over to the musical numbers as well, which can’t manage to replicate the catchiness of those written for the original. Review
One meaningless battle after another assaults the senses, until even the action sequences appear dull. And with such one-note characters, none of the adventure, destruction, romance, or peril have any impact. Review
The two leads are quite impressive, managing to overcome the limitations of their largely stock roles to create a warmth and an energy not often found in such softball approaches to periods of historical despair. Review
