Just about very well known Sci-Fi personality 4 von 5 Punkten This film has all the 50's Sci-Fi standards except the flame thrower. We start off with a narrative that shows an atomic test taking place in the frozen north. Two people go out to take readings after the test. One does not come back and the other is delusional, talking of a monster. Naturally he needs curing and is almost well with a female paleontologist starts to believe him and offers to let him eat her sandwiches and look at mug shots of mobsters past. Can the authorities be convinced before it is too late? Yes I know most people watched this movie because it has Lee Van Cleef playing a pivotal role. Yet we should not forget the many other familiar character actors that make this a true 50's monster picture. First there is that cute little monster himself curtseys of Ray Harryhausen; when he pushes over a lighthouse I can only think of one of my cats. He had the same mischievous look. Then there is Paula Raymond who has been in every TV play from "77 Sunset Strip" to several "Perry Mason's." Not to mention Cecil Kellaway, Dr. Chumley in Harvey (1950). Kenneth Tobey as Captain Patrick Hendry in "The Thing From Another World" (1951). There are way too many to mention here; so you will just have to watch for yourself.

Super 5 von 5 Punkten Dieser Steinzeit-Film aus der britischen Produktionsfirma Hammer verbindet Dinosaurier und Menschen, die ja eigentlich 65 Millionen Jahre voneinander getrennt lebten, zu einem faszinierenden Abenteuerfilm. Die Kulissen dieses Films sind wunderschön (gemalt), und die Spezialeffekte von Jim Danforth (ähnlich Ray Harryhausen) suchen ihresgleichen. Einfach super!
Meilenstein des Monsterfilms 4 von 5 Punkten Als Professor Tom Nesbitt bei einem Atombombenversuch einen prähistorischen Rhedosaurus freilegt, halten Ihn alle für verrückt. Keiner glaubt Ihm, bis das Monster in New York auftaucht... Dieser "B-Movie" zeichnet sich vor allen durch seine, für damalige Verhältnisse, hervorragenden Tricks aus. Im "Stop-Motion"-Verfahren erweckt Ray Harryhausen, Schüler des legendären Willis H. O'Brien (King Kong 1933), den Dinosaurier zum Leben. Unter der Regie von Eugène Lourié entstand ein düsterer, teilweise sehr spannender Monster-Film lange vor Godzilla oder Jurassic Park ... Nicht nur für Genre-Fans sehenswert ! |

She was an intermezzo in his life. 5 von 5 Punkten This David O. Selznick film is a remake of an earlier film with the same name. Ingrid also played in this one so it is easy to get them mixed-up at first. The story is a classic and has been told in many ways. A famous violinist (Leslie Howard) falls in love with his daughter's piano teacher (Ingrid Bergman). Unlike many movies where the couple cause each other trouble and force the other one to beg his/her way back into good graces, the situations are real enough that you feel that you are part of the story. You will have to watch to find out how they deal with feelings and act on them. You can easily get wrapped up in the story and forget that there is quit a bit of beautiful music in this film. If you find this movie as intriguing as I do, your next story should be "Brief Encounter" - Criterion Collection (1945). See my review "When you feel like British, no other film will do as well."
