Movie Reviews of The Ladykillers

Movie Review: Excellent English comedy
Summary: 5 Stars

This film is a blast to watch...Sir Alec gives another amazing performance.I watched it several times to be sure I didn't miss anything,and the one thing I noticed repeatedly is the fact that he "reacts" better than anyone in the business.Very subtly,to be sure,but perfect.The entire cast is a dream combination.If you are a fan of wry humor,and especially a fan of Guinness (and a very young Peter Sellers),and the rest of the cast...you will not be disappointed.

Movie Review: The Killer Lady...
Summary: 5 Stars

Alec Guiness is a criminal mastermind who leads a band of crooks (including both Peter Sellers and Herbert Lom) into the perfect heist. Well, almost. A little old lady named Mrs. Wilberforce is their cover and helper, though she is oblivious to their scheme. She ends up being the undoing of the entire mob as she mild-manneredly destroys their plot, while the thugs destroy themselves! Never mind the remake, this is the original masterpiece! Highly recommended...

Movie Review: Cannot be improved on...
Summary: 5 Stars

I, (like many film buffs), was surprised that the Coen bros. would entertain the notion that they could even come close to improving on this Ealing Studios classic with that piece of junk that they convinced Tom Hanks to be in. The acting in the original is right on target, as though the actors are from a stage ensemble, knowing exactly what another character is going to do next. The chaos and silly scuffles are even perfect. Cannot be improved on.

Movie Review: Classic British Comedy
Summary: 5 Stars

A great classic crime comedy. The cast is great, featuring Alec Guinness and Peter Sellers. The plot is that Guinness is organizing a crime, in which a main ingredient is a little old lady, Mrs. Wilberforce whose house the thieves need to stay in during the heist. As you might geuss, things don't go just as planned. Parts of it are really hilarious. It's a classic British comedy.

Movie Review: A Wonderful Classic and what a GREAT cast!!!
