This is one of the most brilliant movies that I have seen in recent times. Goes way above even any international movie of any repute.

One of the best movies for all ages. You will never be able to look at LION KING again without thinking of the extra history this movie adds.

Robert Taylor and Stewart Granger switch the goodie-baddie roles they held in "All the brothers were valiant".

I found it highly interesting that the film actually managed to bridge the gap between my own american culture and that of the originators, i.e. chinese. It becomes a story about values, and causes the watcher to reevaluate their own choices in life, and loyalties toward institutions. Amazingly enough, it managed to do... | Positive | null | null |
I thought this movie was very well put together. The voice-overs were also great. I liked how they all overcame their conflicts and reached their goals. I would recommend this movie to anyone.

I'm not at all picky about horror movies, and I'm willing to watch pretty much any of them. That doesn't mean that I'm willing to re-watch many of them, or that I won't have criticism for them.

I was in the film too, but i don't know if they actually put this scene in.

An excellent movie and great example of how scary a movie can be without really showing the viewer anything.

Why can't this type of compact, entertaining mystery be filmed in the new century? It keeps the viewer thinking and guessing all the way. The cast is a great ensemble.

Certain DVD's possess me until I just have to go out and buy it. This was one of those movies. Like many on here, I remember seeing it as a child and loved it.

As the jacket proclaims, this film is "Gorgeously shot and masterfully edited," and, yes, it is mesmerizingly beautiful.

Having heard of Modesty Blaise before, but never having read a novel or a comic strip, my wife and I liked the film a lot.

Overall I would have to say that I liked the movie. Some of the fight scenes are really good. Especially the fight against Leung Ka-Yan.

An excellent example of the spectacular Busby Berkeley musicals produced in the early 1930's. Audiences must've been very surprised to see James Cagney in this type of vehicle.

The last film in Lucas' saga is a lavish, spectacular-looking production. It is often considered the ugly duckling of the original trilogy, but I think it is a notch above episode IV (and just a notch below episodes III and V).

I liked the movie, first of all because it told an interesting story, but the story as told in the movie felt like it was condensed from a much-longer story.
