Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - A Masterpiece
I have always told people that this is my favorite movie of all time - and I have seen a helluva lot of movies. That is all I need to say.



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - A really great film, and yes...
The Pope IS Jewish.

It's a rather sad state of affairs that virtually every movie reviewed on Amazon with any fame or notoriety is reviewed as 'excellent', 'genius', 'brilliant', insert superlative, etc.

The fact is, and most of us know this, most of the movies sold here or anywhere are mediocre at best. If you don't believe me, just go look at the reviews for either version of the Poseidon Adventure.

However I can honestly say this movie is not a mediocre ... Read More



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Veddy British, Veddy Stoopid...I've Resorted To Hypnosis In An Effort To Forget It
Peter O' Toole's binge drinking (or occasional bouts of momentary sobriety) from the days when this film was made explains a lot about why he took on the role of a mad English Lord in the allegedly funny dark comedy The Ruling Class, although how Arthur Lowe was talked into coming aboard this brain-hurting turkey is a mystery.

In a nutshell, this perhaps one-time avant-garde movie from 1972 plays out like this... A fusty old nobleman, the thirteenth Earl of Gurney, played by Harry ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - More room in these views...
What a relief anyway to note that at least ONE reviewer below can write, both to the point and grammatically correctly! OK, on to the actual movie.

I'm slightly disappointed, but unsurprised, I suppose, not to see the following interpretation included among the many. I saw The Ruling Class when it first came out in the UK. Of course the film took well-aimed pot shots at a variety of British institutions, but also asked subtler questions of all of us, such as "Shouldn't society review ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Typically brilliant British film, though it may not be for everyone...
This is a great film, one that polarises audiences even today. Some say it's outdated, that its targets (the stuffy upper class British snobs, the House of Lords, etc., etc.) are old news. Yet I feel that it hasn't dated at all, that we will always have these stuffy upper class bastards (whether they are British, American, French, or what have you) with us. Many have had problems with the mise-en-scene of the film, stating that it's too stagey because it's based on a play. I didn't find this at ... Read More
