Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
The effect is exhilarating and exhausting.
– Roger Ebert,

fresh:
It's all fairly excessive and far from subtle, but in this case good taste would have been wildly inappropriate and a fearful drag.
– Vincent Canby,

rotten:
This is both the movie in which [Russell] is most faithful to the ideas and tone of his material, and one of his very worst films.

fresh:
Ken Russell's filmization of Tommy is spectacular in nearly every way.

rotten:
This 1975 film's inventiveness begins to flag about halfway through, but by then it's a relief. If only Wagner could have lived to see this.
