Movie Reviews of Reap the Wild Wind

Movie Review: an early DeMille masterpiece.
Summary: 5 Stars

Reap The Wild Wind is an early Cecil B. Demille masterpiece. John Wayne gives a very believable performance in a supporting role. Ray Milland received top billing in this one. Paulette Goddard is absolutely ravishing in this. it's a shame she didn't have a more successful film career. she gave a great performance as well. this is really nothing more than a nautical soap opera but is so well written and directed that it can engross any classic film buff's attention.

the transfer suffers a little in the beginning but improves after the first act. vibrant technicolor only complements an already great film. the audio is also excellent.

Movie Review: Reap the Wild Wind
Summary: 5 Stars

WOW! What can I say about Cecile DeMille,the director that hasn't been said. A wonderful film with two great stars, John Wayne and Susan Hayward. The photography is spectacular, a very well written story and the action is certainly above par. I recommend purchasing this for anyone at just about any age from 10 on up. Why I started at 10 is because it's primarily an adult story, but having said that, you don't have to worry about language, or the scenes.

With a film with John Wayne in it you can't go wrong!

Enjoy!

Movie Review: One of My Favorite Movies
Summary: 5 Stars

REAP THE WILD WIND is a great movie. I think it is much better than movies being made now. It has everything-Romance, Adventure, Family, Betrayal, Beautiful scenery and Gorgeous costumes. The acting is great. I especially like Ray Milland. Paulette Goddard, Susan Hayward, Raymond Massey. Robert Preston and the rest of the cast do a great job. I never liked John Wayne after I saw him in this, but if you like him, you will be surprised by his performance. Try this DVD, and you will be glad you did. It would make a great gift to someone who hasn't seen it.

Raymond Massey (1896-1983) play a awasome and clever villain , a super performance ! . Transfer in Ultra-Resolution High Quality picture . Highly recommended

Movie Review: Key West In The 1840's
Summary: 5 Stars

John Wayne portrays a sea captain who is honest and hard working until he is "betrayed" by the company he works for and then agrees to work for the "bad guy". He does the right thing in the end and saves another man's life at the cost of his own. The case of the movie was in good shape and the movie was excellent condition. Thanks RWM
