2020: Others (341 movies items)"Quasi un secolo e non sentirlo: il film nel film (e che film, con Buster che entra nello schermo e, prima di sconvolgerne la trama, salta senza respiro tra le ambientazioni più disparate), parodia del poliziesco investigativo con la lente d'ingrandimento sempre in tasca, un'invenzione visiva dietro l'altra, lo slapstick ben temperato che non cede mai alla gag di grana grossa: una tra le vette di un autore immenso."

1001 Movies You Must See Before You Die (1920's) (42 movies items)" Notes: To be honest, so far, after watching around 5 of his movies, I can’t say I have become a huge fan of Buster Keaton's work. However, since this movie had a rather stellar reputation, I was quite eager to check it out. Well, I wasn't disappointed, that's for sure. Indeed, the damned thing was a total blast and easily one of the best silent comedies I have seen so far. Indeed, as usual with Keaton, the whole thing was quite random but, in the contrary to his other movies, it worked fine "

My Favourite Movies, Year by Year
50 Moments of Cinematic Wonder (50 movies items)"SHERLOCK JR. - THE PROJECTIONIST ENTERS THE SCREEN Buster Keaton is cool. He oozes it. The fixed, neutral expression, the astonishing control he has over his own body, the heroic execution of those jaw-dropping stunts. I'd say he was up there with the coolest screen presences of all time. But despite their winning physical dexterity and the fact that they always win through in the end, Keaton's characters are usually portrayed as part-hero, part-sap. From the effete son of a manly riverboat cap"

Nick's Top 100 Films (100 movies items)"" It has jaw-dropping stunts and gags that surprise on multiple viewings. (How did he jump through his friend’s chest?) But it also offers a strange, post-modern-before-it-had-a-name exploration of movies, viewers, and the relationship between the two. Come for the laughs, stay for the philosophical hall-of-mirrors." - Keith Phipps"
