The African Queen Ratings & Reviews

  • RyezooFebruary 14, 2025
    First time being exposed to this actors. I thought they were both excellent for the time period. I was more impressed by the cinematography from 1951. The first two acts were funny and interesting, but the third really ruined this movie for me. The pacing is slowed down and the ending is just stupid. There's something about old movies and their props and set designs that I really love. Watching this with my grandfather made me appreciate this more.

    Two people set out on impossible journey and find strength in each other. The interaction between Hepburn and Bogart make the movie work, worth watching.
