The simple minded decadence of what passes for love stories in today's movies has all the beauty of dancing pigs. Antidote: the barge scene in Charade. The night sparkles, Grant and Hepburn glow, the conversation is witty and seductive. Good training... Full review

I first saw the movie as a bonus feature on the dvd of the remake, The Truth About Charlie. Charade is one of those rare movies that I ended up liking the original more than the remake. The movie's strength lies... Full review

That slight misstep aside, Charade fully deserves its stellar reputation. A winning dark comedy and mystery, Charade fares well across the board. The monaural soundtrack of Charade seemed decidedly ordinary. ... Full Review

Charade [Special Edition, Criterion Voyager] Charade" isnt successful when it comes to drawing you into its world. To be sure, the plot is as slight and inconsequential as ever, and if you think about it, nothing in the movie is at all realistic. ... Full Review

its menace is muted....The movie is a perfect boxoffice machine for its time, balancing Audrey Hepburn charm against a witty script and sumptous production values.....It's surely a special case, being so high-profile a film, but with so many other PD films allowed to languish.... ... Full Review

Charade is also a taut romantic thriller enlivened by exquisite sets and mesmerizing performances from Audrey Hepburn and Cary Grant as the young widow in jeopardy and her love interest who may or may not be what he seems, respectively. So do yourself a favor; skip the pallid remake that Hollywood is foisting upon an unsuspecting public this weekend, take a trip down to your local rental establishment and check out a - preferably letterboxed - copy of Charade. ...

Charade is a peculiar film because it represents the absolute best of Hollywood filmmaking without actually contributing anything to the history of cinema. And, on top of everything else, it's also a amiable romantic comedy. ... Full Review

To me the quintessential Paris film is Charade . It was made back in 1963 but it's shown on television quite a bit. There were several Audrey Hepburn movies with a Paris background but this one was the best. ... Full Article

If you've seen Stanley Donen's Charade , starring Cary Grant and Audrey Hepburn, you probably won't like The Truth About Charlie , Jonathan Demme's free-form remake starring Mark Wahlberg and Thandie Newton. ... Full Article

This isn't the spare, touristic Paris of Donen's imagination but a bustling, multicultural metropolis that becomes much more central to the mystery that unfolds before our eyes. ... Full Article
