Pre-2024 Film Reviews
The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes (1939)
Rick Aragon @ Rick’s Texan Reviews
- Excerpt: The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes is an absolute showcase for Basil Rathbone as the title character.
Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania (2023)
The Blob (1958)
Rick Aragon @ Rick’s Texan Reviews
- Excerpt: The Blob is nothing more than a good time, with a sly sense of humor amidst all the extraterrestrial chaos.
Ecstasy of the Black Rose (1975)
Panagiotis Kotzathanasis @ Asian Movie Pulse
- Excerpt: “Ecstasy of the Black Rose” is an eccentric, self-reflexive and frequently hilarious Roman Porno that finds art, exploitation and desperation occupying the same cramped room. Kumashiro’s film may not be as outrageous as its reputation suggests, but its focus on sound, performance and the conditions of low-budget filmmaking makes it much more than a succession of erotic scenes.
Interiors (1978)
Rick Aragon @ Rick’s Texan Reviews
- Excerpt: Drawing heavily from Ingmar Bergman’s various portraits of quiet despair, Interiors manages to be both an homage to Bergman and an original (Woody) Allen story.
Scarlet Street (1945)
Rick Aragon @ Rick’s Texan Reviews
- Excerpt: Exceptionally well-acted and written, Scarlet Street builds up its tragic story with elegance and grace.
Sextette (1978)
Rick Aragon @ Rick’s Texan Reviews
- Excerpt: Sextette is worth watching only if you want to complete a Mae West filmography collection or enjoy seeing freakishly awful films.
3:10 to Yuma (1957)
Rick Aragon @ Rick’s Texan Reviews
- Excerpt: 3:10 to Yuma builds up its tense story of this battle of wills to a climactic finish. With excellent performances and a surprisingly brief runtime, 3:10 to Yuma will appeal to both Western fans and those not particularly interested in the genre.
