Academy Award winners Humphrey Bogart and Ingrid Bergman light up the screen in one of the most enduring romances in movie history--Casablanca. Rick Blaine (Bogart--The African Queen, The Caine Mutiny) owns a nightclub in Vichy-controlled Casablanca, frequented by refugees desperate to escape German domination. Despite the ever-present human misery, Rick manages to remain uninvolved in World War II now raging across Europe and Northern Africa. But all that changes when Ilsa Lund (Bergman--Gaslight, Notorious) walks through the front door of Rick's club--Rick must now choose between a life with the woman he loves and becoming the hero that both she and the world need.

Reviews

Next Best Picture

Fresh

As soon as the main titles end, you are transported into a world filled with great performances and an incredibly sophisticated screenplay that takes advantage of every emotion you can think of.

Deep Focus Review

Fresh

It continues to fascinate audiences in a way that is beyond explanation, except to resolve that the picture seems to result from and fully encompass that somewhat fantastical notion of Movie Magic.

The New Republic

Fresh

Casablanca is as ineffectual as a Collier’s short story, but with one thing and another -- like Bergman, Veidt and Humphrey Bogart -- it is a pleasure of sorts.

Birmingham Post

Fresh

The plot is complicated in detail but clear in its issue; and it is in the presentation of the tortuous means by which the desperately-desired end is gained that the picture succeeds admirably.

So topical is the dialogue that it might have been written yesterday, instead of six months ago.

Common Sense Says

Brief violence and lots of tension in top-notch classic.

What Parents Need to Know

Parents need to know that although Casablanca remains one of the greatest American films ever made, the style and pacing might not appeal to younger kids. Teens will enjoy it more with some historical context. Since it's set during World War II, there's violence related to those trying to escape the Nazi regime. Although the film is highly romantic, love sequences show restraint. The characters often put their values ahead of their personal interest. Characters drink and smoke throughout.
