Tomato
A-

Oklahoma! (1955)

"Changed the face of the musical… After The Sound of Music, it's the best-loved Rogers & Hammerstein film adaptation, deservedly so."

Steven D. Greydanus

Tomato
A-

Old Yeller (1957)

"What makes Old Yeller more than run-of-the-mill Disney is not only the gut-wrenching climax, but also the remarkably well-done uplift of the denouement."

Steven D. Greydanus

Splat
C-

Oliver and Company (1988)

"The last gasp of Disney Animation's post-Walt malaise before the 1990s Disney renaissance … retains Dickens's seamy milieu, but not his morality-play tableau."

Steven D. Greydanus

Tomato
A+

On the Waterfront (1954)

"Religion and social action finally meet in Hollywood… a great film for many reasons, but its most enduring asset may be the young Brando."

Steven D. Greydanus

Tomato
A-

Once (2007)

Tomato
C+

One Man's Hero (1998)

"An earnest, flawed film for thoughtful, critical viewing."

Steven D. Greydanus

-

One Man's Hero (1998)

"The film never got a proper U.S. theatrical release, and hasn't been promoted on video and DVD… Thomas Nash is working to change that."

Steven D. Greydanus

Splat
C

One Night With The King (2006)

"Distinctly made-for-TV vibe [despite] visual spectacle and a distinguished supporting cast."

Steven D. Greydanus

Tomato
A

Open City (1945)

"Stunned audiences the world over recognized in it an unmediated authenticity more evocative of the documentary quality of wartime newsreels than of conventional WWII dramas."

Steven D. Greydanus

Tomato
B

Open Range (2003)

"Open Range is a bit like Charley himself: competent, flawed, unglamorous, grim but not unhopeful, it gets the job done… a simple, uncluttered tale of honor, loyalty, freedom, and frontier justice."

Steven D. Greydanus

Tomato
A+

Ordet (1955)

"Dreyer is digging deeper than these slogans ["institutional religion" versus "personalized faith"], to the regions of mystery where Johannes's mind was lost."

Steven D. Greydanus

Tomato
B

The Others (2001)

"Watch it, and see what was wrong with the Zemeckis/Ford/Pfeiffer flop What Lies Beneath."

Steven D. Greydanus

Tomato
A

Our Hospitality (1923)

"Keaton's first feature-length comedy is one of his best, a comic gem set against a backdrop of a Hatfield-McCoy style family feud."

Steven D. Greydanus

Tomato
B+

Out of Ireland - The Story of Emigration into America (1995)

"Period letters and songs, archival and modern photography, and illustrative anecdotes as well as broad analysis are all deployed to convey the flavor as well as the sequence of historical events."

Steven D. Greydanus

Tomato
B

Over the Hedge (2006)

"May satirize suburban foibles, but that doesn't mean family audiences need to see themselves as the target. Who really likes plastic flamingos, anyway?"

Steven D. Greydanus

Tomato
A-

The Ox-Bow Incident (1943)

"In contrast to the familiar Western device of the hero obliged to take the law into his own hands… a grim, messy cautionary tale about vigilante justice and mob rule."

Steven D. Greydanus
