	Babel: Sections: Film: Cinema Stardust: Critiques by Malcolm Lawrence
		Suddenly film meant much more to me than it ever had, which I didn't think could happen because it already meant a lot to me. And it wasn't until years later that I realized the bountiful time I was growing up in and developing a love for film.
		I personally think that from 1967 to 1982 was the golden age of cinema in the United States and perhaps for the rest of the world too, because it was during these years that the inmates were running the asylum, as it were.
		A beautiful film, I have my own copy of it on videotape now, and I still think it's the most accurate depiction of childhood I've ever seen, let alone all the OTHER layers the film works on with the myth of Frankenstein, the reign of Francisco Franco and the state of Spain itself.

		Clue, made in the 1980s, is set in the 1950s and makes frequent reference to the sociopolitical climate of the time.

	DVD Review: Clue
		"Clue" isn't the greatest movie, but there are some funny moments from a solid cast who does good work with the material.
		Sharpness is adequate, although the film sometimes looks the slightest bit on the soft side.
		SOUND: "Clue" is definitely a "dialogue-driven" movie, and the main focus of the audio is the conversations between the characters.

	Clue: The Movie (1985)
		Clue is a modest little piece that maintains a consistently - and appropriately - light tone; it never goes so far as to acknowledge its origins, but it keeps up a vaguely tongue in cheek attitude throughout the movie.
		Clue itself will never be regarded as a classic, but I found it to be fairly entertaining, largely due to the efforts of the wonderful cast.
		Clue is delightful enough to warrant a rental, but the lackluster quality of the DVD means that I can't recommend anything more than that.

	CLUE - DVD
		Seventy-five percent of the theatres were therefore showing the same film, but not because it was drawing huge crowds: this was merely the best way, the powers that be deduced, for three separate versions of Clue, each with a different ending, to be projected with a minimum of hassle and simultaneously.
		That Clue is contained on the recently pressed disc, along with every one of the theatrical versions, a novelty made possible by streaming branch technology.
		Clue is one of the few titles the studio has chosen to not remaster in Dolby Digital 5.1.

	Metaphilm - Clue
		Clue, in fact, is really about the most famous unsolved murder of the twentieth century—the assassination of President John Fitzgerald Kennedy.
		The film is set in New England, where the Kennedy clan comes from and still largely resides, and because it opens in 1954, years before Kennedy emerged on the national scene, it gives viewers a grim preview of the events that would occur in nine years.
		And indeed, the third ending of Clue ties up the loose ends nicely, dramatizing the now famous conspiracy theories of the Kennedy assassination by revealing the massive conspiracy at the heart of all of its murders.

	Chicago Reader Blogs: On Film
		When I first saw the movie in September, at the Toronto International Film Festival, I was struck by how stylistically different it is from his previous works; De Palma met the challenge of shooting a high-definition video feature on a $5 million budget by radically reinventing his approach to storytelling.
		At the Q and A following the first Toronto public screening, De Palma said he was inspired by a movie he'd seen at the festival the previous year, Bruno Dumont's Flanders, about the rape of a Middle Eastern woman by French soldiers and her revenge.
		It's a film that never stops working, at a tightrope level of awareness, even when what it's working at—a musical tale of "peace and love" in the shadow of Vietnam, as refracted through the prism of 60s Beatles lyrics—is certifiably brain-dead.

	Clue - Review - Films Based on Boardgames an 80s Phenomenon
		The sets and costumes of the film are good but the way the film is shot still gives it a 80s feel.
		One of the most enjoyable parts of the DVD offering of ‘Clue’ is the option either to watch the film with all three endings or with a randomly selected one.
		The three endings of the film was, and is, one of the reasons that I love this film as you can always see a reason why any of the characters may have done it.

	Guardian Unlimited Film \| News \| Stones film gives clue to Altamont murder
		The film has been out of circulation for nearly 40 years: Brando, who called it "too much of a word salad", didn't allow them show it.
		The film shows the star, bombarded with a series of ever more inane questions from interviewers who have not even seen his movie, responding in bravura fashion.
		He throws their questions back at them, flirts outrageously with the female journalists, holds forth on the plight of the Native American peoples and even enlists a pretty young passer-by to answer questions about the artist's responsibility to "speak out" on social issues.

	DVD Verdict Review - The Scarlet Clue
		The fifth film in the set, The Scarlet Clue, is another solid entry that is available both on its own and as part of the set.
		Directing his fifth and final Charlie Chan film, Phil Rosen (Youth on Parole) has a much stronger sense of the series, and despite the obvious similarities to Charlie Chan in the Secret Service, this film is by comparison a great improvement.
		MGM does rationalize Toler's portrayal in their liner notes, stating that the films were created at a time when it was acceptable to cast Caucasians in minority roles.

		Clue is Paramount Pictures' comedic film rendering of the classic Parker Brothers board game of the same name.
		The picture is the best yet of this film since it's initial release, but there are moments when the image appears too soft and the entire presentation leans to the dark side (no Star Wars pun intended).
		Clue, Most of my friends say, ''You like to watch a board game?!?!'', Clue is a great game one of my favoites, But I didn't really understand the outline of the game, That is intill I saw the movie 'Clue', It's the best and the funniest movie ever made!

	Clue - The Movie Guide
		In fact, I once watched it eight times in a row (totaling 12 hours!!) The strange thing with this film though is that EVERY time you watch it, you catch another joke that you missed before because you were laughing so loud.
		It is also one of those rare films, that fifteen years after its release, still has people quoting lines to each other in the pub.
		This section is intended for people who have seen the film, so they can relive those funny moments; and for the new-comer, wondering what all the fuss is about.

	Get a Clue (2002) - A Review by David Nusair
		Because Get a Clue was made for (and premiered on) The Disney Channel, it doesn't come as a huge surprise that the movie has virtually nothing to offer viewers over a certain age (that being around twelve or so).
		The storyline - thin as it is - revolves around a New York City-based high school student named Lexy (Lohan) who stumbles upon an affair between two of her teachers, Mr.
		The screenplay, by Alana Burgi Sanko, is devoid of anything even remotely approximating complexity, while the film's look (courtesy of director Maggie Greenwald) resembles a generic, family-friendly sitcom.

	Amazon.co.uk: Clue [1986]: DVD: Eileen Brennan,Tim Curry,Madeline Kahn,Christopher Lloyd,Michael McKean,Martin ... (Site not responding. Last check: )
		Ordinarily, a film based on a popular board game would not sound the most exciting of prospects, indeed it is the type of film that most sane people over the age of nine would go out of their way to avoid.
		The film takes a playful approach to its subject matter and, as mentioned by several reviewers on here, the script sparkles with a disproportionate number of highly quotable, expertly delivered one liners.
		The filming of three separate endings was an ingenious idea and it is worthwhile purchasing the DVD release version simply for the ability to choose to watch all three together, or to simply have one of them appear randomly at the end.

		Yvette has on flat fl shoes, but right after the running shot is over she is back in heels.
		Visible crew/equipment: Towards the end of the film, when the butler is explaining 'whodunit', as he stands at the front door, quite clearly at the top of the screen a microphone can be seen following him back and forth.
		Watch in slo-mo or pause the film when they bump into each other, it is obviously not the actors but stunt doubles.

		Still, the film bears enough good comedy and old-fashioned mystery, garnished with a sound track that adds just the right spice to the flavor of both humor and suspense, to earn a "five-star comedy" rating from me.
		Any film requires at least double this amount to be really effective.

		Although the film is set in the 1950s, the original Clue game was actually devised by Anthony Pratt, a clerk in Leeds, England, to pass the time during World War II air-raid drills.
		First released in 1946 under the name Cluedo by British manufacturer Waddington's, Clue was renamed and released in the U.S. in 1949.

		Without a Clue has all this, but the buddies are Sherlock Holmes and Dr Watson, and the usual set-up has been reversed: Watson (Kingsley) is the clever one, Holmes (Caine) is really Reginald Kincaid, an out-of-work actor hired to maintain Watson's credibility.
		When the boozy Kincaid begins to revel in his role, Watson becomes jealous and gives him the boot, but soon discovers that he can't do without him.
		Although a bit long, it's full of incidental pleasures, and the climax in an empty gaslit theatre is slapstick at its silliest and best.

		Years before he cracked it with the likes of Joe Pesci and Eddie Murphy, Yes, Minister creator Lynn made an uncertain Hollywood debut with this ill-advised screen adaptation of the sleuthing board game Cluedo (Clue in America).
		New England, 1954 (!), and a certain Mr Boddy is summarily dispatched as his mansion is filled with suspicious guests, each hiding behind a pseudonym (Col Mustard, Prof Plum, etc), each with a motive for perpetrating the dirty deed.
		Sadly, however, the characters are less credible than their plastic counterparts, the puerile humour is dispiriting, and the plotting pulled this way and that by the conceit of releasing the film in the US with a trio of alternate endings.
