2001: A Space Odyssey (1968)
90%
“It is the photography which sets 2001: A Space Odyssey apart from any other movie ever made. The story may puzzle the mind... but be assured nothing in Cinerama or any other projection has ever presented such a wonder to the eye.” –

The Searchers (1956)
87%
“The Searchers is not really a "big Western." Despite some of the finest scenic shots to be brought to the screen, it is just a "long" Western. Much too long.” –

The Lone Ranger (1956)
90%
“It is perhaps unfair to saddle [Screenwriter Herb] Meadow with all the blame. It is difficult to imagine just what a writer forced to work within the confines of this childish legend could possibly come up with except a "B" category Western.” –

Gentlemen Prefer Blondes (1953)
88%
“Howard Hawks must indeed be a genius of the first magnitude, for not only has he presented us with a new Monroe, he has also completely refurbished Anita Loo's 27-year-old story. ” –

Requiem for a Heavyweight (1962)

“Requiem for a Heavyweight searches the slums and back alleys of New York and probes deeply into the minds and hearts of its principals to tell a story as exciting as it is unseemly. ” –

Zarak (1956)
“There should be some sort of special award for Director Terence Young; he is a man of usual talents and possessed of extraordinary restraint. The proof of this lies in his superb handling of Miss Ekberg's contribution.” –

A Man for All Seasons (1966)
89%
“A Man for All Seasons is a thing of beauty to the eye, music to the ear and excitement to the mind. It is also one of the very few transpositions from stage to screen which can honestly be said to improve with the change of medium. ” –

Barefoot in the Park (1967)

“Intelligently "opened out" to include incidents only mentioned in the stage version, this delightful comedy has all the lightness of a feathered and brings to the theater audience the same comfortable feeling that all is well with the world.” –

Deadlier Than the Male (1956)
“In a drama of taut emotions and ruthless determination, Miss Daniels Delorme easily proves that the gentler sex is indeed "Deadlier Than the Male."” –

Midnight Cowboy (1969)

My Fair Lady (1964)

“How many times in a lifetime does the thrill-of-a-lifetime come twice? Never, you say. Ah, then you have never had the experience of seeing My Fair Lady first on the stage and then on the screen.” –

In the Heat of the Night (1967)
95%
“There is an aura of gold about In the Heat of the Night. It is the gold of statuettes -- Oscar-shaped statuettes... But if there is here to be an Academy recognition of a leading player, male, only a twin Oscar would be justified.” –

The Incredible Shrinking Man (1957)

“Tied to the philosophical theme that nothing is too small to catch the eye of God, this experiment in optical illusions makes the fatal mistake of taking itself seriously.” –

“While following the adventures of his little outlaw Director Roberto Gavaldon makes the most of his Mexican location. Natural beauty is enhanced by colorful festival scenes and a fascinating religious service.” –
