NEW
New in Global Theaters: A sober look at this giddy adventure does reveal a greater ambition
New on Netflix: A lot of physical comedy, ridiculous and irresistibly funny at times, for those who are game
New on Netflix: Entertaining at first, until the movie drowns in its literary references and increasingly silly crime plot
RECENT
This deranged story is good enough for a second round
The very definition of ”it is what it is”, serving up a thin story connecting decent action scenes
OK of its type, but never particularly scary, funny or clever
OLDER
Premiered in 1929: An unusually well-made film for an early talkie; moves fast, has a disarming sense of humor and impressive sets
Premiered in 2021: A bloody mess, with lots of laughs and bizarre violence
Premiered in 1975: Plenty of action keeps the movie afloat and the filmmakers take good advantage of London locations
LONGER REVIEWS
Premiered in 1961: The screenplay has weaker moments, but this is a genuinely witty film
Premiered in 1924: A pleasure to behold, with obvious creativity and energy in many scenes
Premiered in 1962: Intense and provocative at the time, the film also has a terrifying score by Bernard Herrmann
