Camille (1936) 96% EDIT “Greta Garbo approached her task with ennui, but once she sensed the soul of the character, she went on brilliantly from one phase to another. ” – The Age (Australia) Feb 4, 2026 Full Review Gaslight (1944) 94% EDIT “It has a strong plot and the heavy brooding mood of suspense imparted.” – The Age (Australia) Jan 13, 2026 Full Review Confessions of a Nazi Spy (1939) 95% EDIT “Apart from the national significance of the picture as the present time, Confessions of a Nazi Spy is a first-class specimen of mystery drama, and is superbly acted by a well selected cast.” – The Age (Australia) Jan 6, 2026 Full Review The Karate Kid Part II (1986) 49% EDIT “Karate Kid II is true to the formula of the first film, and handsomely shot in Hawaii, it presents traditional Japanese notions of family loyalty and honor most attractively. ” – The Age (Australia) May 28, 2025 Full Review Only Yesterday (1933) 100% EDIT “Only Yesterday could, of course scarcely fall to be good in view of its outstanding cast -- Margaret Sullavan, John Boles, Billie Burke, Edna May Oliver, young Jimmy Butler.” – The Age (Australia) Apr 23, 2024 Full Review National Velvet (1944) 98% EDIT “It is not overdone, and has a homely atmosphere which makes it attractive.” – The Age (Australia) Mar 25, 2024 Full Review Bringing Up Baby (1938) 97% EDIT “It is Cary Grant's film chiefly, with Charlie Ruggles all too briefly amusing in his jungle calls.” – The Age (Australia) Jul 25, 2023 Full Review The Bitter Tea of General Yen (1933) 86% EDIT “There was little to recommend [it] as pleasant entertainment.” – The Age (Australia) Apr 24, 2023 Full Review The Black Pirate (1926) 100% EDIT “While the theme creates intense interest right through it combines a scenic attractiveness rarely seen.” – The Age (Australia) Mar 22, 2023 Full Review The Dark Angel (1935) 94% EDIT “A powerful climax to a film that starts a little obscurely and develops slowly. ” – The Age (Australia) Mar 9, 2023 Full Review Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs (1937) 97% EDIT “Many fine adjectives must be employed to describe it, and they would not be adequate, even though the list include the words lovely, beautiful, exquisite, and marvellous.” – The Age (Australia) Dec 20, 2022 Full Review My Four Years in Germany (1918) 95% EDIT “Throughout, Mr. Gerard's reminiscences are very closely followed... and while at times there are crudities in the presentation -- particularly in in those scenes relating to the horrors of war -- the film contains much that is interesting.” – The Age (Australia) Nov 16, 2022 Full Review The Maltese Falcon (1941) 99% EDIT “A mystery film that rises far above the level of the usual "who-done-its."” – The Age (Australia) Nov 11, 2022 Full Review Meet Me in St. Louis (1944) 99% EDIT “Several catchy old-time tunes are woven into the story, and the color Is delightful; It ls all very gay and diverting and skilful direction Is backed with excellent acting, most notably from Judy Garland and little Margaret O'Brien.” – The Age (Australia) Nov 10, 2022 Full Review King Kong (1933) 97% EDIT “From start to finish it is one big series of exciting spectacles packed with more improbabilities than Jules Verne could ever have encompassed. ” – The Age (Australia) Nov 8, 2022 Full Review Mr. Smith Goes to Washington (1939) 97% EDIT “Words dominate a Capra film for the first time by design. It is the director's way of showing up Parliament and Its party puppets.” – The Age (Australia) Nov 8, 2022 Full Review The Shop Around the Corner (1940) 99% EDIT “If you like its whimsical style you will certainly delight in the popular players.” – The Age (Australia) Nov 7, 2022 Full Review How Green Was My Valley (1941) 93% EDIT “Pictorially and musically, the film is distinguished, and if the atmospheric continuity tends at one stage to become wearisome, the humor and philosophy of [the characters] amply compensate.” – The Age (Australia) Jul 26, 2022 Full Review Marty (1955) 96% EDIT “Amiable, despairing, elated Ernest Borgnine is splendid as the hero. It is a superb performance.” – The Age (Australia) Oct 18, 2021 Full Review Sunset Boulevard (1950) 98% EDIT “Sunset Boulevard is a triumph for Gloria Swanson, star of the silent days, and now at the top of the ladder in this more difficult talking era.” – The Age (Australia) Oct 11, 2021 Full Review The Philadelphia Story (1940) 100% EDIT “The "story" is otherwise well told in satirical strength, with a cleverness which is refreshing.” – The Age (Australia) Jun 9, 2021 Full Review North by Northwest (1959) 97% EDIT “There are scenes so improbable and goonish without any goonish intent that laughter is the only appropriate reaction.” – The Age (Australia) Jun 8, 2021 Full Review The Last Days of Pompeii (1913) 100% EDIT “[Last Days of Pompeii] is intensely interesting, and furnishes another example of the high standard which has been attained in cinematographic art.” – The Age (Australia) Jun 4, 2021 Full Review The Women (1939) 94% EDIT “Norma Shearer does her work charmingly.” – The Age (Australia) May 24, 2021 Full Review Modern Times (1936) 98% EDIT “Modern Times is a film worth waiting for, and a worthy successor of City Lights. Chaplin's outlook has not changed, and he uses the cinema as a medium with marvellous dexterity.” – The Age (Australia) May 6, 2021 Full Review
