Movie Reviews

Combustible Celluloid - 10/10 by Jeffrey M. AndersonA King in New York proved prophetic, not only in the McCarthy witch-hunts, but also in the relentless advertising and television obsession we have today.
DVDJournal.com - 10/10 by Mark BourneTaking a fire hose to HUAC is an impulse worth applauding, but the overall movie is so tone-deaf and tired that the method sinks the message.
Ozus' World Movie Reviews - 7/10 by Dennis SchwartzThe coming of talkie films has been unkind to the legendary silent film comic, Charlie Chaplin.
User Review - 10/10 by Nick D"visionary"... one word sums it up. I saw it on Turner Classic... 50 years later its up with the time. As he knew, what the media will become.
User Review - 10/10 by Hugo SChaplin's political line is appearing very clear in this movie.
User Review - 10/10 by Jacob BChaplin's last starring role in a film is one of his more underrated and finer performances. You can feel a lot of Chaplin's frustration with America and the HUAC as a result of his own exile. These sentiments are strongly felt in A King in New York and it makes for both a very wonderful film and a strong political statement about the status of America during the 1950's. With the use of rather scathing satire, Chaplin crafts a rather fantastic film which is nothing short of magnificent. Also, it is one of the rare films you will find of it's era that readily defends Marxism, which is a breath of fresh air.
User Review - 8/10 by Fabio MThe son of Charles Chaplin plays a magnificent act in this film. I thought it was a great picture including some funny scenes and some political views as well. Even when he talks, Chaplin can be a good performer. This film is underrated, i think you should give it a look if you haven't seen it yet!
User Review - 8/10 by Lea Fnot one of his best, but it's still very good
User Review - 8/10 by Sean LThis is hilarious. On a side note, I wish there were live music performances that preceded cinema.
User Review - 8/10 by Michael HAn unfocused but gleefully sardonic film which serves as the last gift from Chaplin as an actor. Importantly, it comes late in his career, after America targeted him as part of their witch hunt and effectively ruined one of the greatest film careers in the history of the medium. Chaplin certainly hasn't forgotten or forgiven here (who could blame him?), but instead of striking back violently he does so with a signature sarcasm which points out the absurdity of the red scare and comments on it with a good sense of humor. Admittedly, the story does make a wild burst in its final act, where structure is lost and Charlie takes a few potshots, but this doesn't take away from the wonderful sequences that lead up to it. After a career of incredible characters and some of the most heartwarming and hilarious movies of all time, this is a worthy actor's swan song for Charlie Chaplin- both autobiographical and imaginative.
