Kings Row Ratings & Reviews
The New Republic
Otis Ferguson
In spite of overlength, [Kings Row] has a nice apportionment of dramatic qualities.
Gone With The Twins
Mike Massie
While several of the lesser ideas, such as pity and revenge, aren't demonstrated with as much tact, the sweeping melodrama is still a winning formula.
Cine-Mundial
Jose Maria Santos
A film of very high quality that you won't easily forget. [Full Review in Spanish]
TIME Magazine
James Agee
Potent, artful cinema.
Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews
Dennis Schwartz
The film that made the future President Reagan a movie star.
EmanuelLevy.Com
Emanuel Levy
Sam Wood's Oscar-nominated small-town tale is one of the darkest melodramas Hollywood made in the 1940s, full of neurotic personalities and perverse secrets.
Movie Metropolis
John J. Puccio
...while episodic and sentimental and filled with all kinds of unlikely turns of events, there is no denying the characters are endearing and the ending uplifting.
Journal and Courier (Lafayette, IN)
Bob Bloom
A wonderful guilty pleasure potboiler enchanced by a magnificent Korngold score and fine acting from Ronald Reagan in the performance of his career. Only lead Robert Cummings is weak as Paris Mitchell; just imagine James Cagney in the role!
Kansas City Kansan
Steve Crum
Classic soap opera, maybe all time best; certainly Reagan's best
Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC)
Ken Hanke
Unpleasant soap opera, but well made.
Goatdog's Movies
Michael W. Phillips, Jr.
The film is dark, incredibly so for a mainstream movie before World War II.
Filmsite
Tim Dirks
Kings Row (1942) is a thought-provoking, emotional, melodramatic, 'Peyton Place'-like film with a turn-of-the-century, small-town setting that revealed evil, cruelty, duplicity and depravity.
