Movie Reviews of The Black Swan

Movie Review: Seen many times on Sunday's
Summary: 4 Stars

This movie was a staple on Sunday afternoon television. Tyrone Power was so handsome, Maureen O'Hara so beautiful (she still looks terrific today) to compare them to todays "stars" is laughable. But, as much as I pine for the handsome leading men, and beautiful leading ladies of the 50's time marches on. Not to downplay Johnny Depp, who is a very good actor in his own right, but he is so androgynous looking he's usually prettier than his leading lady. And Orlando Bloom is so bland how does he keep getting movie deals? Enjoy!

Movie Review: Maureen O'Hara and Tyrone Power - who could want more?
Summary: 4 Stars

I mainly purchased this because Maureen O'Hara did a commentary track for this picture. Since she is a favorite of mine, I wanted to hear some of her stories and insight in working with Tyrone Power and on this particular film. I only wish that the other commenter would have had more information about the film (or 20th Century Fox) to speed up the dialog between them or to prompt Maureen O'Hara to say more than she did. As for the film, it's a classic tale of pirates and adventure. A good addition to any collection.

Movie Review: Ty Seas
Summary: 4 Stars

Power is in top form in this brisk, lushly colorful pirate picture. He's terrifically charming, which is odd as he plays kind of a drunken lout. But he's positively low-key compared to the rest of the cast who act up a storm. It's especially amusing to see the famously debonair George Sanders hamming it up as a bearded baddie. Maureen O'Hara is almost too convincingly haughty to root for her as Ty's romantic booty. But she's along for a great commentary track with Rudy Belmer.

Movie Review: A Great Tale Of Swash-Buckling Adventure!
Summary: 4 Stars

For anyone who occasionally enjoys a great story of pirates in The Caribbean, this is a very good choice. Tyrone Power is strong in the lead role, as Jamie Boy. This story also includes quite a bit of historical background data, from that period...
