Film Critic

Catch-22 (1970)

Publish Date: November 21, 2014
"Cynical and bitterly cold (...) [Mike] Nichols and [Buck] Henry fail to make an anti-capitalist film. They have made their case so strong that it becomes an anti-human film."

The Hollywood Reporter
2001: A Space Odyssey (1968)

Publish Date: November 7, 2014
"It is, as promised, 'a majestic visual experience', quite unlike any film we have ever seen"

The Hollywood Reporter
Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid (1969)

Publish Date: September 9, 1969
"George Roy Hill's intelligence and craft have never been so clearly and confidently manifest in bringing to the screen the aggregate virtues of the ingredients."

The Hollywood Reporter
Planet of the Apes (1968)

Publish Date: February 4, 1968
"It provides maximum entertainment topped with a sobering prediction of the future of human folly (...) [It] is that rare film which will transcend all age and social groupings"

The Hollywood Reporter
The Graduate (1967)

Publish Date: December 17, 1967
"A brutally funny look at contemporary youth (...) Both tuned and attuned to its subject and on target for most of its course (...) Miss Bancroft is outstanding"

The Hollywood Reporter
Bonnie & Clyde (1967)

Publish Date: August 6, 1967
"[It] marks a new peak in the work of director Arthur Penn, an exceptional screenplay by David Newman and Robert Benton and the emergence of Faye Dunaway as a screen personality equal to the importance of her assignments."

The Hollywood Reporter
In the Heat of the Night (1967)

Publish Date: June 20, 1967
"A gripping and suspenseful murder mystery."

The Hollywood Reporter
The Dirty Dozen (1967)

Publish Date: June 15, 1967
"It is overlong, uneven and frequently obscure, but will succeed by virtue of its sustained action, even though what it attempts to say, if anything, remains elusive"

The Hollywood Reporter
Bullitt (1968)

"It is simply one of the most exciting and intelligent action films in years, probably the best good-cop film we can expect to encounter."

The Hollywood Reporter
The Thomas Crown Affair (1968)

"Jewison continues to prove himself among the most facile and appropriative of the two-dimensional directors ..."

The Hollywood Reporter
The Out of Towners (The Out-of-Towners) (1970)

"It is the closest the sound film has come to recapturing the genius of the silent movie chase comedy."
