Geisiane O Como um o destino é intrigante, um pouso forçado pode trazer e mudar vidas ! Muito bom! Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 11/23/23 Full Review Louisa E This was so painful. I watched the silent version, which might not be fair to George Arliss, but here are my thoughts. The plot is ok, but the pace is very slow. It is the acting that makes the movie so painful. It is terrible. The raj doesn't look even a hint Indian, and the character felt so inauthentic. I felt racially uncomfortable the whole way through. I got so bored watching this and couldn't wait for it to be over. The plane crash scene was laughable. The worst movie I've seen in a while. Rated 1.5/5 Stars •  Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 05/08/23 Full Review Audience Member An ok film that has some entertainment value. George Arliss is the best thing about the film (even though you would never believe him to be Indian) due to his entertainment value at playing the menacing Raja. What I liked about the film is that you don't know who is going to survive and escape from the Raja. However, the rest of the casts acting is not good and the sound quality is quite bad as well. Arliss was nominated for his role as the Raja but lost to himself for playing Benjamin Disraeli in Disraeli which I think was a better performance in a better film. I also note that both of Arliss's performances were better than Tibbett's Oscar-nominated performance in (what's left of) The Rogue Song, the only Best Actor nominee I have seen from that year. Overall, a mildly intriguing film due to film history but also due to Arliss's performance and an interesting plot, everything else is lacklustre. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/11/23 Full Review Audience Member I was disappointed. George Arliss is the scheming Raja who manages to capitalize on an airplane crash that delivers three British citizens into his hands just as the fate of his three siblings is about to be settled in neighboring India. His subjects believe that it was the hand of the benevolent Green Goddess who has delivered this opportunity for retribution to their Raja, so the three begin to look doomed, unless they can use the radio to summon help. It's a stage bound presentation and Arliss, usually good, is off form. The production is basic in limiting aspirations of director Alfred Green. The film is just all a bit flat for what seems like a long 75 minutes and ends in a let down. Rated 2.5/5 Stars •  Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/08/23 Full Review steve d Far too over the top for me. Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review Audience Member Matching wits with a paradoxical Rajah and his murderous people in this adventure three survivors are rescued ,not suspecting the terrible fate awaiting them. Solid performances by the entire cast and still watchable . Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/15/23 Full Review Read all reviews
