AUDIENCE SCORE
User Ratings: 1,068
Rating: A+ -- Kings Row (1942) is a thought-provoking, emotional, melodramatic, 'Peyton Place'-like film with a turn-of-the-century, small-town setting that revealed evil, cruelty, duplicity and depravity. Full Review

Rating: 5/5 -- Classic soap opera, maybe all time best; certainly Reagan's best

Rating: 4/5 -- A wonderful guilty pleasure potboiler enchanced by a magnificent Korngold score and fine acting from Ronald Reagan in the performance of his career. Only lead Robert Cummings is weak as Paris Mitchell; just imagine James Cagney in the role!

Rating: B -- The film that made the future President Reagan a movie star. Full Review

Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC)

Rating: A- -- Sam Wood's Oscar-nominated small-town tale is one of the darkest melodramas Hollywood made in the 1940s, full of neurotic personalities and perverse secrets. Full Review

Description by OLDIES.com:

It's a quaint turn-of-the-century small town of shady streets, swimming holes and the Sunday afternoon clip-clop of horse and buggy. But that peaceful exterior conceals human lives twisted by cruelty, murder and madness.
