Mike W I came close to spilling my drink with lines that included "Daddy-O" and "Later Alligator". It was the worst movie I recall that featured Gregory Peck, an actor I like very much. The scenes in the zoo and aquarium were POOR. Rated 1.5/5 Stars •  Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 07/09/24 Full Review Nizar N You know what to expect from the very first few minutes, and realize it is not the greatest movie you'll ever see. That is okay, firstly because it is still one of the memorable ones you'll see, and secondly because it keeps up with what it promises and stays true to itself instead of pretending to be something it's not. The plot might come off as convoluted, but is not really, and that trait is what keeps the movie interesting. Sophia Loren and Gregory Peck have great chemistry together. Stanley Donen experiments with some unorthodox frames as well as effects with lights, and he gets some beautiful scenes. The ending is remarkably great, and very rarely do movies focus on the ending that much, which also brings to mind none other than the great ending of Donen's Singin' in the Rain. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 03/10/23 Full Review Liam D While not as good as Stanley Donen (The Grass Is Greener, Damn Yankees) other thriller Charade its still an absolute fun ride Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/01/23 Full Review steve d Peck is always good but the story didn't work. Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review Audience Member Stanley Donen's Hitchcockian motion picture is called Arabesque that is about an international affair that involves a professor, a Middle Eastern prime minister, a ruthless businessman, a beautiful spy, and hieroglyphics. While there are some things that I found unnecessary in this film like the cinematography due to over usage of the Dutch angle and the constant twists that occur throughout the entire movie, I still was fond of Arabesque. That's because of the suspenseful musical score composed by Henry Mancini, the lavish costume designs, the sense of humor in some scenes, and last but not least a wonderful performance by the beautiful and iconic Sophia Loren. Arabesque is a stylish film filled with suspenseful mystery.
