Rating: 5/5 -- The flying effects, obviously, have dated, but everything else crackles with chemistry and class. Full Review

Rating: 3/5 -- It's a solid melodrama with a brawling sense of place that hasn't entirely stood the test of time. Full Review

Rating: 4/5 -- It's great stuff, silly and stirring and romantic, made at a time when thrills could be achieved without special effects and heroism conveyed with a few words or a shrug, and without an ounce of aggression. Full Review

Grant's romantic finale with Arthur is tops of its kind.

Rating: 4/5 -- [It] soars, not least during its incredibly taut bad-weather flights which pound with the slow thudding tension akin to the depth-charges of Wolfgang Petersen's Das Boot. Full Review

ONLY ANGELS HAVE WINGS achieves a seismic force that conventionally open-hearted movies can’t hope to match....The film’s first half-hour alone constitutes a dazzling tour de force of shifting dynamics. -- Grade: A

"Only Angels Have Wings" is... wet, atmospheric, and even a bit tragic. These men live close to death, and, as such, have to live quickly. There is a sadness hanging over these people. Full Review

Product Description:

Geoff Carter (Carey Grant) is the head of a crumbling air freight service in desperate need of a replacement pilot. He is forced to hire a descredited aviator (Richard Barthelmess) who arrives with his wife (Rita Hayworth), Carter's ex-lover. Meanwhile, traveler Bonnie Lee (Jean Arthur) tries to get close to the emotionally closed-off Carter. The film received two Academy Award nominations.
