Movie Reviews

EmanuelLevy.Com - 7/10 by Emanuel LevyInspired by Garbo's Ninotchka (a much better film on any level) King Vidor's romantic melodrama is a serviceable star vehicle for Clark Gable as an American journalist and the beautiful Hedy Lamarr as a Soviet streetcar conductor.
User Review - 10/10 by Charles CNow, I must say. This is a very interesting spy thriller coming out of a very tumultuous time. Being filmed during the partitioning of Nazi Germany, we see representations of Nazis, Soviets, and Americans alike. The portrayals add insights to their times. Gable and Lamarr have great chemistry. Overall, it is a fabulous film by King Vidor and one that is not broadcasted much. But, it is definitely worth a viewing.
User Review - 8/10 by Alexa HI heart Clark Gable! This is a super cute movie!
User Review - 8/10 by Nicole JI really like Clark Gable in this movie ^^
User Review - 8/10 by Adam BCommunists would have taken over the entire world, if they had used Hedy Lamarr to sell it
User Review - 8/10 by Vincent HThis movie was SO silly! and great to boot. Gable, Lamarr, and Soviet Commies, what more could you ask for?
User Review - 8/10 by STCENTERPRISE .I thought it was a funny film. It shows the outrageous suspicions that all Russians had in the Soviet Union. I like how the sets look. I think it is a comedy, a mystery, and several other kinds of genre type of film which I am not sure I'm able to clearly identify. I thought it was a pretty great film. I would buy it. Clark Gabel did a very good job acting in this film.
User Review - 6/10 by Katie RLamarr and Gable have good chemistry, but overall it's a dull Ninotchka wannabe.
User Review - 6/10 by Greg WBen Hecht wrote this pre-cold war comedy about newspaperman Clark Gable falling for beautiful communist Hedy Lamarr in this Ninotchka-esque romantic comedy. It's really only a mediocre comedy, but Lamarr is gorgeous and charming and there are certainly some good bits of dialogue from Hecht ("You can't have a revolution in a country where the people love hot dogs and boogie-woogie." or "Don't get nervous honey, we're all safe inside this room. We can take our ideals out and play with them.") I've never been that big a fan of Gable, but it's adequate for the role of a brassy American. Lamarr and the sporadic Hecht zingers are really the only reason to watch this one. It's not a classic, but it's worth checking out if you're run out of great classic comedies to watch. And on a related note, I'm on a quest to find if there was ever a "great" film that Lamarr appeared in, because it is my new theory that she has been somewhat of a forgotten star because she seemed to have appeared only is average films and never any real classics. So far, of the films I've watched, I'm thinking "Algiers" is the closest she's come to a classic and that one is still really not a classic. It's a shame because she does have some comedy chops, solid screen charisma and is, of course, absolutely gorgeous.
User Review - 6/10 by Ashley HComrade X is a decent film. It is about an American reporter smuggling news out of Soviet Moscow who is blackmailed into helping a beautiful Communist leave the country. Clark Gable and Hedy Lamarr give good performances. The screenplay is a little slow in places. King Vidor did an alright job directing this movie. I liked this motion picture because of the humor and romance.
