Movie Reviews of Emperor of the North
Movie Review: Borgnine was one of the best Villians
Summary: 4 Stars
I bought this movie for Lee Marvin and it was a great vehicle for him. Marvin to me was always cooler then Brando and Dean.
But Borgnine who I like came close to stealing the show as one of the best villians.
During the depression Marvin as a Hobo tries to steal a ride on Borgnine's train to Oregon Borgnines job is to keep him off
If you like Marvin IF you like Borgnine and if you like trains Give this movie a try The only thing missing was Johnny Cash singing Ride this Train
Movie Review: Emperor of the North
Summary: 4 Stars
I have loved this movie since I saw it at the drive-in as a kid. Sure a violent movie about depression era hobos trying to ride a sadistic train conductor's train isn't the normal kids movie, but I wasn't a normal kid. You basically can't go wrong when you have Lee Marvin and Ernest Borgnine. So if you like hobos, trains and violence, then see this movie.Movie Review: Great Film -- but I think it's cut!?
Summary: 4 Stars
If I remember the movie right (from an early VHS) there is a
scene where Marvin in burned by Borgnine with hot steam from
the train's engine. Did I miss it, or why is Marvin's shoulder
burned all of a sudden. If the movie is cut it's a shame after
all this waiting for a DVD.
Movie Review: Hey, I might be hoboing soon
Summary: 4 Stars
What a great movie. You know there are parts of this movie that shows what it really was like during the last depression. It does show how the rails were a world of their own. I would have thought that the fake blood would have been a little less fake, but it's still a great movie.Movie Review: First class bums
Summary: 4 Stars
Marvin and Borgnine combine to present a rivetting story of the underside of life during the Great Depression in this drama that pits a tenacious railroad man against the hobo that dares to steal a ride on his train. Life on the road was never more dangerous.
