Movie Reviews of The Ritz
Movie Review: Top Notch Fun
Summary: 5 Stars
The Ritz has been a cult movie in our family for decades now. Totally irreverent, it pokes politically incorrect fun at just about every ethnic group, religious faith and sexual orientation in sight. at least those in sight in 1976. Frankly, I think it is a perfect movie. When I saw the recent Broadway revival, I kept thinking how the various scenes were played in this movie. The movie won the competition with the stage performance hands down.Movie Review: At long last!
Summary: 5 Stars
I've been enjoying this film for over twenty years on a scratchy video. At last it is out on DVD, cleaned up and reformatted for wide screen. It is a joy. Jack Weston, E. Murray Abrahams, Rita Moreno, Kaye Ballard and Treat Williams all turn in superb performances, as do the rest of the cast. There is not a false note. From beginning to end it is a wonderfully funny farce and a memory of happier, pre-AIDS days. Superb in every way.Movie Review: Funny, funny
Summary: 5 Stars
This and the original M.A.S.H film had me rolling on the floor with laughter. It has a lot in common with classic theater farces (Goldsmith, Wilde, et al.) but takes the genre right over the top. How Rita Moreno didn't win another Oscar for this one, I don't know. Everyone I've shown it to--the girl friend, Mom, the neighbors--loved it. Not a mean-spirited moment in the whole show. An all-star cast, perfectly cast.Movie Review: The Sleeper of the 70s
Summary: 5 Stars
So controversial that it had to be made in England, The Ritz is the ultimate 70s farce. Who knew that a fat garbageman from Cleveland could be funny in a gay bathhouse? That Murray Abraham could impersonate Margaret Dumont? Or that Rita Moreno would be mistaken for a 'transvestitite?" Don't forget Claude Perkins, Detective Brick, and Seymour Pipping. They've gotta put this one out on DVD.Movie Review: THE RITZ, THE BIZ.
