Leave your thoughts about Giant.
| VarietyVariety StaffAn excellent film which registers strongly on all levels, whether it's in its breathtaking panoramic shots of the dusty Texas plains; the personal, dramatic impact of the story itself, or the resounding message it has to impart. |
| New York TimesBosley CrowtherGiant, for all its complexity, is a strong contender for the year's top-film award. |
| Spirituality and PracticeFrederic and Mary Ann BrussatOffers a lively portrait of a marriage that weathers all storms and evolves over time into something more than it was at the outset. |
| Hollywood ReporterDouglas PrattA real movie is big, grand, magnificent and regales you with all the power that movies can wield upon a viewer's imagination and spirit. George Stevens' 1956 production, Giant, is a real movie. |
| Austin ChronicleMarjorie BaumgartenIf Texas had a state movie, then Giant would be it. |
| Combustible CelluloidJeffrey M. AndersonGeorge Stevens captured the vast space of Texas by using height, not width. It's fascinating to watch. It tells a long story, a story of times changing for better or worse. |
| Filmcritic.comChristopher NullDean (in one of 3 roles on film) makes quite an impression, and Taylor reminds us why we ever liked her to begin with. |
| Creative LoafingMatt BrunsonThis ambitious adaptation of the Edna Ferber novel is often touched by greatness, yet it's ultimately too scattershot to satisfactorily maintain its bloated 200-minute running time. |
| Time OutGeoff AndrewStevens' sprawling epic of Texan life, taken from Edna Ferber's novel, strives so hard for Serious Statements that it ends up as a long yawn. |
| eFilmCritic.comRob GonsalvesEntertaining in a big-movie way, but very, very long; many scenes are expendable. |
