    • Geoff Andrew

      Stevens sprawling epic of Texan life, taken from Edna Ferbers novel, strives so hard for Serious Statements that it ends up as a long yawn. ( Read More )
    • Giant, in spite of its length, seldom seems long its story is too eventful, its effects too picturesque, and its director too skilful for that even over so long an expanse of time. It may not be a great film but it is certainly an awesome one. ( Read More )
    • Marjorie Baumgarten

      There is no better way to while away a Sunday afternoon than with this sprawling saga about the growth of Texas and the families that matured along with the state. ( Read More )
    • Rob Gonsalves

      Entertaining in a big movie way, but very, very long; many scenes are expendable. ( Read More )
    • Walter V. Addiego

      Restored and still a Giant among films Giant (1956) offers extensive pleasures it had better, at 201 minutes not the least of which is watching James Dean age from a misunderstood, penniless youth into a mean, rich, middle aged alcoholic. ( Read More )
