Excellent,
By Malvin "ganz prima" (Montreal, Canada) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton Film Collection (Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf 2-Disc Special Edition / The Comedians / The Sandpiper / The V.I.P.s) (DVD)
Great movies. Richard Burton and Elisabeth Taylor were great actors and they prove it in these movies. They were borned to play together.

Worth an lazy afternoon watch,

This review is from: The Comedians (1967) (VHS Tape)
Has anything really changed in Haiti? I wonder. Shocker was I thought Taylor was imitating a FRENCH accent and turns out she is GERMAN!Didn't sound German at allOK movie if you lived thru that era which I did. Nothing special but for a lazy Sunday Afternoon....OK
2.0 out of 5 stars
Conscientious and dull,
By
This review is from: The Comedians (1967) (VHS Tape)
A disappointment for Greene fans, or at least this one. I found this movie conscientious, slow and obvious, and the acting duo of Burton and Taylor didn't help. Burton's usual tired self loathing seemed phoned in. Taylor's lack of depth gave him nothing to play off of, assuming he was ready to try. She was so carefully made up and coiffed that one was always aware that it was a star turn for Taylor. And the movie is long. What would have been interesting, and might have made an effective movie although it would never have happened, would have been to cast Guinness in Burton's role and Burton in Guinness' role. Yes, Haiti was awful then. And, yes, Haiti is awful now. But no matter how serious the message, a movie's first responsibility is to be well made and effective. The Comedians tries way too hard to be "meaningful."
