Entertainment Reviews:
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.

Classic soap opera, maybe all time best; certainly Reagan's best
Kansas City Kansan
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!

The film is dark, incredibly so for a mainstream movie before World War II.

Unpleasant soap opera, but well made.
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.

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.
