The Rocky Horror Picture Show

I didn't expect that film to entertain me so much. After all, there is too much talk about it as being cult, but in its case it is completely deserved. Great acting performances in a brilliantly twisted script, where Tim Curry dominates, and of course the songs that easily get under the viewer's skin. This is alternative beauty. (10/12/2015)

A musical whose plot is merely an ingenious backdrop for an enormous cinematic legacy and a celebration of artistic and life's incoherence and extravagance. It gets a bit slow in the end, but otherwise it’s an absolutely unprecedented and deservedly iconic whirlwind of funny musical sketches, cleverly written, wittily staged and, above all, incredibly acted! Tim Curry is phenomenal as a transsexual caricature of a mad horror scientist, as if he was born for this insane and unique role in film history, and it's all embellished and spiced up with two more cherries than the adorable Susan Sarandon, whose feminine assets I want to see at home every day.... just want! 85% (02/15/2017)

Susan Sarandon almost constantly in lingerie, a free-spirited transvestite, a castle of freaks, a fat biker, a reversal of puritanism and good taste receiving one slap after another. The trip to the strangest castle in the area simply turned out as contradictory as expected. The songs are mostly fine and catchy, but the plot they are attached to is unbearably bizarre and always completely unrelated to any hint of a storyline. And of course, the best song is Touch-a, Touch-a, Touch-a, Touch Me. (10/24/2010)

What more can I say about the presumed musical legend, than that its humor, as well as the individual songs, were just not my cup of tea. And I respect the British humor as well as I respect a similar sounding music. Nevertheless, since I’ve heard endless stories of how people are dedicated to this movie, I will refrain from a more in-depth review. It will be for the better. (03/29/2016)

It is perhaps bizarre but original. Unfortunately, it's also a somewhat uncoordinated affair, which after a rousing opening starts to rehash the stereotypical system of musicals without any further innovation or invention. Sharman earns points with promising hints, but he could have pushed a little harder. That’s quite unfortunate because this madness stands on its own two feet only thanks to the divine Tim Curry, whose tranny creation is unparalleled on screen. All in all, it’s as entertaining as De Palma's (sadly underrated) Phantom of the Paradise. (04/20/2007)
