Farah R. @Farah Feb 21 One of the worst old Hollywood films I’ve ever seen. I can’t believe the iconic Marilyn Monroe starred in such a poorly-written movie. The dialogue was annoying, the characters were vapid, and the ending was nonsensical. See more Rare T @RT00283363 09/10/2024 That was a weird movie, but it's good at what it is. One can't give it a bad review simply because the plot was unpleasant (if it were to happen in real life, and it does). Consider it a thriller romcom; it has a great plot for that weird collab, in addition to the great performances, cinematography, and humor. Bus Stop is meant to be taken lightly, and with that attitude in mind while watching it, it will turn out to be just fine as an enjoyable watch. See more Alec B @Alec97 12/13/2023 It should actually be listed as "inspired by Inge's play", not "based on" since it throws just about everything from the source material out the window. Monroe is uncharacteristically unglamorous for almost the whole movie, which is the only interesting thing about it. See more David F @dfulmer 07/01/2023 While it's much different from the claustrophobic play that took place exclusively in its eponymous locale, this film does feature some of Marilyn Monroe's best acting. She plays a lounge performer who attracts the attention of a boorish simpleton rancher form Montana, in town for a rodeo. The pairing leads to broad comedy and frankly a lot of very dated "courting" but Monroe truly shines as a sort of lower-class Southern Belle. See more Brent A @BrentAprill45 04/10/2022 10% rating. Terrible film. This would not slide in today's culture. Did not age well. See more steve d @RT35616104 07/21/2020 Incredibly dated and not at all entertaining. See more Read all reviews
