Movie Reviews of The Defiant Ones
Movie Review: Interesting and unpredictable journey
Summary: 4 Stars
Curtis and Poitier are wonderful here as a pair of prisoners who escape after an accident, chained together, on the run, injured, and always in danger from each other or from those who are chasing them down.
Sometimes they do some very stupid things, and the lonely woman who wants to run off with Tony seems unbelievably desperate. However, you will enjoy the sense of suspense and mystery, as you wonder how it is all going to end.
Movie Review: The Defiant Ones--no wonder it was nominated for all those Oscars.
Summary: 4 Stars
Although minimal by today's Hollywood standards, this drama stimulates discussion on many levels. Some of it is obviously dated, but it is worthwhile seeing from the standpoint of cinematic storytelling, basic cinematic technique, and basic dramatic performances without excessive explosions, graphic sex or verbal profanity. Highly recommended for the movie enthusiasist.
