Casablanca has it all: romance, action, a great plot and a great performance by the male lead. Casablanca is one of the most iconic movies of all time and for good reason. It is an excellent movie. We enjoyed every minute of the movie immensely. Unlike Gone With The Wind that is all hype and little substance, this movie delivers.
The film gives us a very different look at the war. It is set in a small Moraccan town that has people loyal to the allies and many German soliders. This mix of indeals in one town makes things quite interesting.
Joel
Favorite: I loved the way that they developed the main character, Rick. The viewer doesn't know if he is loyal to anyone but himself until the very end.
Least Favorite: I wish that the movie would have been in color. Otherwise, it was perfect.
Callie
Favorite: I love the speed of the story line. The plot progressed at a nice pace. I also liked the way that Rick honors the marriage of Victor and Ilsa.
Least Favorite: I don't have a least favorite.
