Sunset Boulevard Ratings & Reviews
- Ricardo Arnaz CPA, ACCA USN-retired16 mars 2026Another Wilder gem. The name says it all. Sunset for the silent queen: Gloria Swanson as her delusion of grandeur still affect her thinking she's relevant, sunset for Richard Widmark (my grandma loved him). Sunset for us all. It doesn't kill us Hollywood fast. It lets us linger slowly face down in a pool.
- Elliot04712 februari 2026This is the reality of Hollywood, and perhaps any film industry; it's a cutthroat competition out there. You take a break for a few years, and you're lost. Nobody is a permanent star in this world.
- Scoots_Magoots22 februari 2026pretty good kinda spooky
- mickerdoo2 januari 2026A storybook tale narrated in a romantic style. Holden and Olson are the cool, cute couple you look for from the era. Swanson delivers big.
- makdelart2 februari 2026A melancholic, nostalgic tale of passing time with a predictable tragic ending. A grandmaster performance by Gloria Swanson.
- LivewireAdmin6 december 2025"We didn't need dialogue. We had faces!" Yeah....Wilder might be one of the goats. Gloria Swanson gives a powerhouse performance as Norma Desmond. You can tell she came from the silent era of acting, she's able to do so much with just her eyes. William Holden is excellent too, delivering maybe the best ever voice-over/narration in a noir. This one is sharp, stylish, and unforgettable, even seventy years later.
- The Gutter Monkey27 november 2025It feels both narratively and stylistically ahead of its time. It's no wonder it's influenced so much that followed.
- hairydemon20 oktober 2025a perfect fable that set the style for how film can be used.
- John Moss16 september 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.
- Stairwaytothestars4 september 2025SUNSET BOULEVARD is a dark road that leads you down towards two characters with hidden agendas that are spiraling out of control like a staircase of inner demons. A wonderful classic that highlights performances from an arrogant Joe Gillis played by William Holden, and a very creepy and delusional Norma Desmond played by Gloria Swanson who steals the movie!
- N01D17 november 2025Just a pretty basic film. I dont see anything bad neither good in this
- Lyngrove2628 augusti 2025Good characters and story
- TIM LANDRY21 augusti 2025So much truth in this film. The boat bed is also seen in 1925’s Phantom of the Opera.
- Rowan Krzysiak13 februari 2025There's real quality there of course but the issue for me was that it was all a bit boring and one-note.
