Dan F One of my thoughts was that they don't make movies like they used to, and that's a good thing. I found this movie, like a lot of old movies, not especially engaging, and maybe a little too complicated in its story. The romance between Bogart and Bacall is barely developed. If everything you know about this movie comes from the hit song, you are likely to be disappointed. It's really not a romance. More of a thriller, but maybe not a very good one. Still, Bacall is lovely, and Bogart is Bogart, plus there is a hurricane, so maybe it is worth watching. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 09/29/24 Full Review Josh D Robinson is Great, Bacall is Great, & Bogart is Excellent! Top 5 of Bogies career Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 05/28/24 Full Review John S A very mature film for it's time. The characters are mindful and largely rational. It's odd to see a b&w film with intelligent leads without instant, undying love stories appearing out of thin air or bounty of ridiculous notions you need to excuse as included as a product of its time. Note that I'm not saying there's no chemistry and promise for love. And there's some (well-intentioned?) indigenous stereotypes. (Lacking perfect execution and consisting of false representation). It's entertaining AF though. Easily one of my favourite movies of the 40's era. I enjoyed it so much upon my very first watch I ordered the Blu-ray. Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 03/02/24 Full Review Jeff S Bogart and Bacall are great in this tense drama facing off against classic bad guy Edward G. Robinson and his sidekicks, which include the talented Thomas Gomez. Director John Huston scores yet another hit. Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/13/24 Full Review Alec B There are some great performances here, but the movie is filled with potentially interesting ideas about heroism and the nature of evil that are sidelined for some pretty dull gangster villains that even Robinson can't make all that interesting. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/10/24 Full Review JJJJJJ J Good enough to keep me interested through out. Though maybe a bit too direct at times this noir seemed to be more thoughtful in comparison to most other noirs of the time. The film is both shot, and acted beautifully and the plot was enough to keep me engaged throughout. Like I said the main critic comes from its less than stellar script. I think this film is a great watch for those that want to look back on previous American "values" and "ideals" or for any fan of the noir genre. Highly recommend.
