Review of Ninotchka (1939) by Jason M — 24 Dec 2016
This is a drastically overrated film. I believe people associate praising this film as an homage to Greta Garbo, who herself may have been vastly overrated as an actress. It is an unbelievable comedy - I don't mean that to emphasis greatness, as it is literally very unrealistic.
The plot is silly, the comic relief characters are endearing, the acting poor, so it is difficult to comprehend why the groupthink of critics award this "classic" status. I don't believe they know either.
