Movie Reviews of Deadfall
Movie Review: A very engaging movie
Summary: 3 Stars
The film is full of wit and sry humour. I love the photography and Caine is superb. It tends to be a bit long at times but you can always skip if you don't like it. The music is fantastic but I didn't like the opening track by Shirley Bassey. Overall if you like 60's movies you won't be disappointed.Movie Review: Thud!
Summary: 2 Stars
Another of the dreadful international films that (deservedly) killed Bryan Forbes' directing career, DEADFALL has popped up in a handsome Fox DVD transfer. So what? This picture's still the snoozer it's always been, with the usually reliable Michael Caine dull as dishwater here. Leading lady Giovanna Ralli is lovely, and nearly unintelligible; sounds like she's made a valiant stab at learning English phonetically. At that, she beats the dire Nanette Newman, the exceptionally untalented Mrs. Forbes, who's unfortunately thrust front and center in his films of this period. Here, she's easily the world's least enticing starlet, cavorting around behind her usual filters playing her usual ingenue that she's a good fifteen years past (no, no, Nanette!) A nice John Barry guitar concerto is cross-cut to little effect with a wowless heist sequence. This picture is strikingly photographed, expensively mounted, and DOA.
