Movie Reviews

Groucho Reviews - 10/10 by Peter CanaveseThe extended rescue climax provides the heights of Steamboat Bill, Jr.'s ingenious choreography, but Keaton's brilliance as a performer shines just as brightly (if not more) in the simpler moments...[Blu-ray]
Little White Lies - 10/10 by Philip ConcannonKeaton has lost none of his ability to entertain and astonish.
Time Out - 10/10 by Tom HuddlestonIf your faith in humanity needs a little pick-me-up, there's no better place to start.
Guardian - 10/10 by Peter BradshawThe ensuing farce involves miraculous physical comedy and stunt-work. Keaton makes it look easy.
Eye for Film - 9/10 by Jennie KermodeSteamboat Bill, Jr. packs in more stunts in 70 minutes than most action franchises have in total, and does so with panache.
LarsenOnFilm - 9/10 by Josh LarsenKeaton becomes here, quite literally, the calm in the eye of the storm.
Cinemania - 9/10 by Dan JardineWorth it for the storm sequence alone, which is staggering in its audacity, and Shakespearean in its execution.
Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC) - 9/10 by Ken HankeA wildly creative comedy that has as much power to impress and amuse an audience today as it did in '28.
Tim Dirks' The Greatest Films - 8/10 by Tim DirksSteamboat Bill, Jr. (1928) is the last of physical comedian Buster Keaton's (the Great Stone Face) nine independent feature films and one
Cinema em Cena - 8/10 by Pablo VillaçaQuase oitenta anos já se passaram, mas a agilidade e a coragem de Keaton continuam a impressionar neste filme que ainda surpreende, encanta e diverte.
