Sunset Boulevard Ratings & Reviews
- hairydemonOctober 20, 2025a perfect fable that set the style for how film can be used.
- John MossSeptember 16, 2025One of the greatest movies ever made.75 years old and it still plays fresh today. Watching the movie in VR replicates the big theater experience unlike anything on the small screen.
- StairwaytothestarsSeptember 4, 2025A timeless classic with an arrogant William Holden, and a creepy Gloria Swanson that steals the movie!
- Lyngrove26August 28, 2025Good characters and story
- TIM LANDRYAugust 21, 2025So much truth in this film. The boat bed is also seen in 1925’s Phantom of the Opera.
- Rowan KrzysiakFebruary 13, 2025There's real quality there of course but the issue for me was that it was all a bit boring and one-note.
