The General (1927)
86%RT Audience Score:
Awards & Nominations: 3 wins & 5 nominations
Brilliantly filmed and fueled with classic physical comedy, The General captures Buster Keaton at his timeless best
If you’re looking for a movie that’s got it all – action, comedy, and trains – then The General is the film for you. Buster Keaton’s death-defying stunts will leave you breathless, and the slapstick humor will have you rolling on the floor laughing. It’s like the Mad Max: Fury Road of the 1920s, but with less CGI and more actual danger. So grab some popcorn, sit back, and enjoy the ride – just don’t try any of this at home.

TOP CRITIC
In these times when all risk is assumed by CGI effects, Keaton’s squealing funny, exquisitely timed, death-defying leaps are all the more breathtaking.

Kate Muir
Times (UK)
TOP CRITIC
The film boasts the most sustained passages of virtuoso slapstick genius Keaton ever shot, and an unflagging momentum that lets it get away with being a reel longer than most of his best-known pictures.

TOP CRITIC
A hilarious comedy and a thrilling action film. The General has it all.

Little White Lies
TOP CRITIC
The General isn’t likely to be the favorite opus of the star’s purist fans, but it’s the one with the trappings of ambition and historical poesy

Bill Weber
Slant Magazine
TOP CRITIC
Spectacular chases, fires and explosions are captured with fluid camerawork. There are no stunt doubles for Keaton and of course no digital effects.

It’s hard to imagine Buster Keaton without trains.

Keaton shows signs of vaulting ambition in The General… That he fails to get across is due to the scantiness of his material as compared with the length of his film; he has also displayed woefully bad judgment in deciding just where and when to stop.

Buster Keaton is brilliant in the film.

Gone With The Twins…
Plot
The naked corpse of Captain Elisabeth Campbell, daughter of Lieutenant General “Fighting Joe” Campbell, is found staked out on the urban warfare range of Fort MacCallum. Army CID detectives and ex-lovers Paul Brenner and Sara Sunhill are called in to investigate, and find themselves wrapped up in a maelstrom of sexual impropriety and misguided face-saving.
