By Chip M (44) on 18 Sep 2014

Nothing that happens in this film makes any sense...and everyone on set had to have been on hallucinogens, not that that's necessarily a bad…

Dated and almost too bizarre, but boy did I still ate it up…

By Tim W (1,375) on 02 Nov 2014

Ha, what?! This movie's terrible, but terribly entertaining too, so points for fun…

Forget about the moral story or even logic.. Imagination is number 1…

Review of Barbarella (1968)

By Don S (1,504) on 09 Jan 2014

While the sets are eye candy and the premise seems funny, the humor is too sexual for my tastes and the plot goes nowhere…

Review of Barbarella (1968)

By Etopp (10) on 08 Dec 2020

A funny, cheesy sci-fi comic book romp with a strong visual aesthetic. DDL did it better with Flash Gordon but this is still worth watching…

Review of Barbarella (1968)

By Tristan W (81) on 16 Dec 2017

A gorgeous, surreal, trippy, irresistible guilty fantasy for the modern individual to enjoy…

Review of Barbarella (1968)

By Olly H (260) on 02 Jul 2013

Trash, der den test of time leider nicht überstanden hat…

Review of Barbarella (1968)

By Ryan V (1,568) on 30 Jan 2015

It's what I like to call fun-bad. It's lavish, gaudy and completely absurd. It's so gonzo though, that I enjoy it…

Review of Barbarella (1968)

By Ethan H (563) on 05 Jul 2013

A very cheesy classic but really what else can you ask for with this storyline. All the absurdness works though for this 60's classic…

Don't remember it too well. I think it was pretty lame…

Review of The Cell (2000)

By Kenneth Turan (2,323) for Los Angeles Times (12,977) on 20 Sep 2014

Some movies make you sorry you've seen them, and The Cell is one of those. Creepy and horrific, it's a torture chamber film…

Review of It Happened at the World's Fair (1963)

By Brian P (1,844) on 10 Dec 2006

I don't really have anything positive to say about this movie, so I will just leave it at that…

More than a decade after the terrible original this new movie actually starts off really well…

Review of Repo! The Genetic Opera (2008)

Wow... it's really bad... really, really bad. just turned it off after about 45 min. couldn't take it anymore…

Review of Colossus: The Forbin Project (1970)

By Louise D (267) on 25 Aug 2017

Somewhat interesting to watch as a time capsule of 1970s mores, hopes and fears. Generally very silly though…

Review of Dead Men Don't Wear Plaid (1982)

By Anthony B (897) on 27 Aug 2011

I fell asleep. The best scenes are all Steve Martin one liners and physical humour, the youtube clip show is a much better way to watch it…

This movie is trippy and makes no sense what so ever. good for stoners…

Review of The Blob (1958)

By Imthenoob (1,101) on 26 Mar 2021

The titular creature is rarely featured in this incredibly boring film that largely boils down to virtually everyone denying that such a creature…

Review of Help! (1965)

By Bosley Crowther (448) for The New York Times (9,847) on 19 Oct 1973

The boys themselves are exuberant and uninhibited in their own genial way. They just become awfully redundant and—dare I say it?—dull…
