Movie Reviews of The Hudsucker Proxy
Movie Review: Another Coen Bros. favorite
Summary: 5 Stars
I have loved all the films that the Coen Brothers have produced. This one was a bit of a surprise, Tim Robbins was an excellant choice for his part. I didn't even know it was a Coen Bros. movie until after about the first 30 minutes, then the light bulb in my head came on, and I KNEW it had to be. I enjoy their brand of humor and tongue in cheek quips, it was recognizable. Like the early Marx Bros. movies, I love the pace and that its often better the second time watching it. I like the undertones like that of a Brit made movie.Movie Review: Brightly funny and darkly satirical
Summary: 5 Stars
This was the third of a hat-trick of great Coen Brothers films and I think it is the best one. It is my favourite. The film is brightly funny but darkly satirical. It is uplifting as well. It absorbs the history of American cinema into a superb modern context, making the best of everything. It has many great set-pieces, wonderful sets and colour photography, great casting and acting. It is surely Paul Newman's best outing. Ravishing and wonderful. This is one of the best films ever made.Movie Review: A perfect movie
Summary: 5 Stars
I've watched this movie four times, and every single scene is perfectly shot, a testament to the skills of the Coen brothers. Newman is brilliant as is Tim Robbins and the supporting cast. From the very first scene of the CEO taking the plunge to the very last minute, it has a mesmerizing "Citizen Kane" type of feel; you think you saw it all, but when you see it again new textures come through. This is very much a keeper of a film.
Movie Review: Sucker for Hudsucker
Summary: 5 Stars
This is the hidden gem of the Coens' ouevre - arguably on a par with Lebowski. Tight, witty, darkly humorous dialogue and outstanding performances by Tim Robbins, Paul Newman, and especially Jennifer Jason Leigh - with smaller, yet essential, roles by Charles Durning and Bruce Campbell. Even a peek of Steve Buscemi. Great score, fabulous art direction, and writing credits shared by the Coens and Sam Raimi. Buy it, and watch repeatedly.Movie Review: Great Film
Summary: 5 Stars
Very enjoyable, fun movie to watch. Once again Tim Robbins is brillant and adorable as he is in all his films. Paul Newman and
Jennifer Jason Leigh are not too shabby either. Overall just a
nice clean film with a catchy soundtrack and a classic movie charm which is becoming increasing harder to fine:)
P.S. Check out Tim doing the Muncie fight song from college--it is so cute:)
