Dark Days In Central America

Date of Review:  Jul 1, 2001
The Bottom Line: For fans of Oliver Stone, this is the best work he has ever put in. "Salvador" is the under-rated masterpiece that should have won Best Picture.
Review: Anyone who has seen an Oliver Stone picture in the last two decades, has a fairly rough idea of this man's image and style. Raw, gritty, and uncompromisingly clear in his portrayal of human suffering, Stone is to many a film god. What's surprising...

Fear and Loathing in the middle of Reagan's Civil War

Date of Review:  Dec 4, 2000
Review: It's flawed and nearly self-destructs, but remains a harrowing, powerful, in your face testosterone fueled film with some fine performances. It's Stone's best film.

Oliver Stone got into the car and pressed hard on the gas pedal. He doesn't...

Guerilla Cinema

Date of Review:  Jul 22, 2008
The Bottom Line: Well worth seeing
Review: Oliver Stone's Salvador is a film that in many ways represents what a politically turbulent time the 1980's was, and just how radical and daring cinema could be back then.

Salvador is a view of the 1980-81 period in El Savador seen from...

Stone's El Salvador: eye-opening, solid story (3.5 stars)

Date of Review:  Mar 26, 2001
The Bottom Line: Not your typical Stone styling, but who needs the window dressing when your substance is this controversial? Good war-time flick. 3 1/2 stars if I could.
Review: This is THE Oliver Stone film for people who don't like Oliver Stone films. Released in 1985 (while the war between the FMLN and the Bureaucratic-Authoritarian government was still going full speed), the legacy of "Salvador" is that it opened...

See this for a Blast from the Reagan Past

Date of Review:  Jul 10, 2000
Review: When I first saw Salvador, way back in 1986, I didn't know who Oliver Stone was, but I knew I loved this movie. In fact, I went back and saw it, at the Quad Cinema, three times. The movie, featuring the John Belushi character's opening tirade...

Good War Story

Date of Review:  Apr 7, 2000
Review: Like anything else, this movie has both good and bad qualities. If you are looking for a good war movie, then this is a good choice. It does have plenty of bloody and gruesome scenes. These scenes are aided by the fact that there are some humorous...
