AFI Top 100

Is there another movie with the same name that’s a breathtaking masterpiece? Because the Scorsese one is overlong, pretentious & dull…#4?

Trailer:

Amazing. Shouldn’t have been a surprise, but never expected the depth to this. Sure, it’s funny, but the battle scenes and stunts are epic.

Trailer:

If they stopped making musicals after this, that would have been understandable. Set bar so high. Kelly, Reynolds & O’Connor triple threat.

Trailer:

Spent youth vainly pretending it was overrated. What can I add that hasn’t been said? The single greatest movie the studio system produced.

140 Character Movie Review – #140RVW

Debate never to be settled: better than original? Modern story may be; flashbacks less engaging. Pacino deserved Oscar but so did Chinatown.
