Critic Reviews of "The Band Wagon"
New York PostApril 11, 2015Sorry, the beloved "Singin' in the Rain" isn't the finest of the legendary MGM musicals. "The Band Wagon'' has better music, better dances, better direction, more lavish sets and costumes and a wittier script (by the same writers).
Chicago ReaderJanuary 01, 2000The musical becomes a frenetic meditation on pop art versus high art, coming down hard on the side of the former.
ColeSmithey.comSeptember 16, 2015Widely considered one of the greatest movie musicals of all time, Vincent Minnelli's "The Band Wagon" connects a jumble of comedic backstage Broadway shenanigans with mix-matched show tunes via Fred Astaire's impeccable dance routines.
Cinema SightAugust 15, 2011A fun musical with creative choreography, but far too little substance.
EmanuelLevy.ComJuly 27, 2006Minnelli's best musical is sparked by witty allusions to real-life showbiz persona like pretentious actor Jose Ferrer and birlliant but aging dancer Fred Astaire, the film's star, who shines when dancing, both with Cyd Charisse and alone.
Movie MetropolisMarch 23, 2005...it's hard to dislike something so cheerful and uplifting as this movie.
Slant MagazineMarch 14, 2005A love song for the narcissistic, and theater people are sure to eat up the film, commentary, extras, and first rate DVD packaging.
Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC)February 19, 2003It has its moments and the stars are good, but it's really overrated.
Kalamazoo GazetteJuly 29, 2002"the undisputed highlight of Astaire's post-Rogers career"
Ozus' World Movie ReviewsJanuary 01, 2000If you like an old-fashioned Broadway musical, you can't go wrong with this one.
