Lost Horizon Ratings & Reviews

Some films you remember when you first watched them. I remember working for AFRTS in Spain when the first Gulf war broke out and we were airing this the day the war started for the US. Braking the myth of America as a power bent on peace. Watching it again brought back all the feelings. The chaplain priest I knew who quit the Navy because of the relentless bombing of cities as psychological warfare were needlessly affecting civilians. Our armies moving so fast the bombings hitting our own troops. The movie itself is electric and beautiful. Sony put in some of the missing elements with stills over original recovered dialog. Maybe my favorite Capra film.

This is a movie that shows Ronald Coleman at his very best.

James Plath
A thought-provoking drama that's worth watching if for no other reason than to be aware of this culturally significant film. It did, after all, give us the name 'Shangri-La,' which has since become synonymous with a utopian paradise on earth.

Great directors are perhaps best understood by their failures, and such is the case with "Lost Horizon.

Capra's most challenging film is both naive and pleasantly uplifting.

Boasting great production values, Frank Capra's film is still one of the most cherished fables made during the Depression era.

Classic Capra fantasy. Not wholly successful, but essential viewing.
