4/5
     (2000)      "The best darned gay samurai murder-mystery I have ever seen." [movie review]      Goatdog's Movies   
  
3.5/5
     (1935)      "It's everything I expect from a Dickens adaptation: a grand, sweeping storyline; impeccable period costumes and sets; and colorful villains and selfless heroes." [movie review]      Goatdog's Movies   
  
2.5/5
     (1992)      "A difficult film to like." [movie review]      Goatdog's Movies   
  
4.5/5
     (1942)      "In addition to its status as one of the great screen comedies, the film is a treasure trove of homosexual undercurrents, many of which aren't all that disguised." [movie review]      Goatdog's Movies   
  
3.5/5

5/5
     (2004)      "No film has ever, ever affected me as much as this one did. I don't know whether it's a great movie, or just particularly good at hitting all of my buttons." [movie review]      Goatdog's Movies

2/5
     (2003)      "A chaotic mess, saddled with its own utter meaninglessness and afflicted by the need to be bigger-better-faster-more." [movie review]      Goatdog's Movies   
  
2/5
     (1938)      "It wants to be a grand story of love and adventure and the call of ever-increasing speed and height, but it's basically just Top Gun, fifty years earlier." [movie review]      Goatdog's Movies   
  
2.5/5
     (1983)      "The film is barely competent, revealing its TV-movie roots in uncertain directorial guidance, technical flubs, [and] a patchwork script." [movie review]      Goatdog's Movies   
  
4.5/5
