4.0 out of 5 stars Only one point to make, August 13, 2003
By Eric C. Sanders (Warren, MI United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: The Left Hand of God [VHS] (VHS Tape)
This is one of the good ones. Moviegoers who are not traditionally devout, who find no comfort in organized religion, often find they can't stand movies with any religious content. This is a good one, though. Humphrey Bogart plays an American pilot who has found he has only one way to escape the Chinese warlord (Lee J. Cobb? LEE J. COBB? Yeah, really!) who has practically owned him for years. Rent it first, if you like: this is one of the good ones, though.

4.0 out of 5 stars The Left Hand of God, June 2, 2007
This review is from: The Left Hand of God [VHS] (VHS Tape)
I first saw this movie as a kid when it was first released. I have seen it a number of times since then and always enjoy it. Is the casting a little 'off'? Certainly! Is the idea of Bogart as a priest somewhat strange? Absolutely! But does he play the role well? Yes! Is Lee J. Cobb amusing as a Chinese Warlord? Indeed! Is his make-up exaggerated? Yes, beyond belief!!! But again, does he play his role well? Yes! And the others, do they play their roles well? No question! I read the reviews posted here and find that what others say is true - but - this is still an entertaining film, reasonably well acted, and has a superb cast. This is not a movie to be dismissed. It stands the test of time and it stands up to be reseeing. I whole heartedly recommend it to everyone.

5.0 out of 5 stars For Bogart collectors this is one of his best., June 24, 2001
This review is from: The Left Hand of God (DVD)
The movie does not quite follow the book however the basic script is Jim Carmody (Bogart) is a downed flier that was recruited by a Chinese warlord Mieh Yang (Lee J. Cob). In reality he was a prisoner placed in command with out authority. His only goal in life is to escape at any cost. Anne Scott (Gene Tierney) is a mission nurse in a Catholic village waiting for a replacement priest. Seems that priests do not have very strong constitutions. Naturally through a series of events Bogie turns up as the priest and has to confront the waiting village, handle his feeling for the nurse, who has strong feelings for him, and later the wrath of the warlord.
What makes the movie great is not the outline of the story, but the acting and the unique way each situation is handled. I do not want to go into details so you can be surprised. I will say that I like church sexton's (Victor Sen Yung) retelling of the tale of the confutation between the priest and the warlord.

3.0 out of 5 stars Bogie as missionary - surprisingly believable
In this Movie Bogart and Dmytryk swap the mean streets of LA for the wilds of China. Bogie is convincing as a missionary priest, which is more than can be said of Lee J. Read more
