“(OK) Really bad in plot and dialogues and gags. The long long Hollywood spectacle waste talents of Frank Morgan, Lucille Ball, Ann Sothern and Marsha Hunt in a lousy doctro sketch; Rooney presenst the show and is pure sympathy; Judy Garland and Lena Horne is the best of the film; Eleanor Powell is s” read more
“(OK) George Sidney is still learning, and has no style or genre preferred. Here is a forced story of german spies feeling at home in Washington, a very stupid girl Jean Rogers, a pretty more interesting rumanian spy Mona Maris, and a light Lee Bowman decyphering codes...” read more
“(OK) Robinson is always well, but voice in off is not his, and the plot centered in his irrational predictions against mistrut of policeman William Demarest (totally miscast), boring Lund. Gail Russell is even wasted. The film comes down from the great beginning with Lund finding traces of Gail who ” read more

“(OK) Wonderful in each department: horror, folk, acting, special effects imagination, photo, lighting, sets. Gogol's spirit as alive as alive is the witch each noght in her coffin (in her old hag and young beauty forms) ...” read more
“(OK) Pre code surprise coming from a director/writer with few titles. Walter Huston is great here as a Chaney without Browning but with Browning moments, and great plot of revenge, lust and everything else louy whites and tribal satanized blacks could do in Kongo's hell. Amazing...” read more
“(MU) Another manifest (he is used to) from Von Trier, posing as a collective expression of Dogma. But the idea of people mocking as idios on idiocy, selfvictimized when trying to go ahead with it in his working and family routine, is really good....Bizarre and wild moments, orgy, irreverent politica” read more
“(OK) Kind debut for Aldrich. Robinson is excellent and funny (he even clowns dancing alone, and amuse himself in a scene with Jaeckel), good secuences in low key night outdoor with Jeff Richards and Vera Ellen...” read more
“(PA) I think, there´s Martita, Joan Fontaine´s peruvian adopted daughter, behinf her bride dress tail, in the scene where Joan marries Jourdan. She told in her autobiography "No bed of roses" that Martita appeared in this film.” read more
“(PA) A pity the bad copy; but there it is Bocaccio making its way in european Hollywood with straight Fregonese hands. The malice is in the plot, don't try to find it too obvious in the bodies, even in young Joan Collins. Dialogues are elegant. Good Godfrey Tearle in the 3 stories with a variant...” read more
“(MU) Don't catch the vale of Ted Mikels, this is pire exploitation, with lousy effects and handsome girls leading the action...Maybe some pioneering in the 'angels of Charlie' stuff...” read more
“(MU) People of Cinerama made some arrangements to film entire secuences, some with a small plot, around great events that deserved -arrogant and innocente they were- ne inmortalized in its 3 screens procedure: the final of Aida in La Scala, a special day in St. Moritz, a show in Cypress Gardens, a t” read more
“(OK) Oh, Favio es tan seguro de sí y tan natural en su approach a lo que sea que haga (mayormente gente extraordinariamente arcaica que pasa por algo distinto) que resulta fluido y redondo. Prefiero a Vidarte, con sus matices e inseguridades, que Borges que no deja de parecer porteña haciendo de p” read more

“(MU) Bogdy just happy playing with shaodws of silent stars. Chaplin is very weak but Kirsten Dunst as Marions Davis and Edward Herrman as Hearst, are something. Dialogues are as weak as Chaplin's character and actinG...” read more

“(PA) So pos nouvelle vague wandering in parisian cafes, Leaud trying to be smart and funny and lovable and crude and impossible, Laffont improving in each scene till she almost steal the philosophy and even tells stories better than Leaud...” read more
“(PA) Pure Chabrol, la respectabilité bourgeoise avec feu and a crime simialr to "Postman rings twice". The little town, the mayor, his wife and the right hand of the mayor, the mayor trying to use the adultery, the daughter as a spirit of righteousmess or revenge...” read more
“(OK) No watse woth Ivory. He een makes Raquel Welsh a good acting star, her character is the soul of the film and Coco is superb. The calm sordid night before the big ending (won't spoil it) is divine....” read more
