Movie Reviews

MovieMartyr.com - 10/10 by Jeremy HeilmanAn invitation to see the world through the same rose colored tints that Clair does.
Ozus' World Movie Reviews - 8/10 by Dennis SchwartzA brilliant lighthearted musical comedy that is one of the early films to be shot in sound. It's directed with panache by René Clair.
User Review - 10/10 by Jayden CGreat musical, even if you don't speak French.
User Review - 10/10 by Marvin DA jolly musical. Now i know where "a night at the opera" was inspired from.
User Review - 10/10 by Emre TAn impoverished artist discovers he has purchased a winning lottery ticket at the very moment his creditors come to collect. The only problem is, the ticket is in the pocket of his coat. . . which he left at his girlfriend's apartment. . . who gave the coat to a man hiding from the police. . . who sells the coat to an opera singer who uses it during a performance. By turns charming and inventive, Rene Clair's lyrical masterpiece had a profound impact on not only the Marx Brothers and Charlie Chaplin, but on the American musical as a whole
User Review - 10/10 by Roy CA thoroughly enjoyable frenzy of pitch-perfect comedy, tightly directed by Rene Clair. Clair was a notable influence on Chaplin, and it is easy to see that here; there is a perfect pinch of pathos sprinkled into all of this wackiness and no matter how far into the abyss these characters fall, we are always wholly connected to them. This is really about as much fun as one can have watching a movie. Every situation, every character antic and every goofy musical number furthers the film's incredible charm. Along with its sense of fun, Clair's film is also of enormous significance for the history of the French cinema; this, one of the first synch-sound pictures the nation produced, stands as one of their proudest landmarks.
User Review - 10/10 by Toronto DThis is the freshest, most original movie I've seen in quite a while. And it's from 1931. I think maybe that I need to get out more.
User Review - 10/10 by Michael LRidiculous yet outrageously innovative. The techniques emplyed for sound here is a masterstroke, really bringing out pure cinmatic conventions and blending a new form with the old and really proving how cinema stands out. Absolutely whimsical and fun, no one will be left sad or depressed watching this film.
User Review - 10/10 by Jean-Michel ORene Clair will get the recognition he deserves some day...love this tale.
User Review - 10/10 by Private UGreat musical, even if you don't speak French.
