Sort by RATING	Sort by ADD DATE (default)	Sort by TITLE \| YEAR	Sort by T-METER
4/5	"A revealing and heartfelt biopic." Posted May 6, 2008	Tucker: The Man and His Dream (1988)	86%
3/5	"Eastwood is in good, if not great form, Bridges steals the whole show, and Cimino displays a sense of unpretentious fun and appealing grasp of character that should have held him in good stead for a lengthy career. It didn't." Posted May 6, 2008	Thunderbolt and Lightfoot (1974)	86%
4/5	"It may not be Fleming but it is terrific fun." Posted May 5, 2008	The Spy Who Loved Me (1977)	83%
5/5	"Hitchcock at his very best." Posted Apr 11, 2008	The 39 Steps (1935)	96%
4/5	"Engrossing western which inspired a huge genre revivial." Posted Apr 9, 2008	Silverado (1985)	81%
3/5	"A good effort, but the star power on show throws the proceedings off kilter somewhat, hiking up an expectation that the film ultimately cannot live up to." Posted Apr 9, 2008	Cop Land (1997)	71%
2/5	"A valiant attempt to turn a complex novel into a compelling movie is hamstrung by a conventional literary sensibility, an uneven tone and, crucially, a failure to establish a moving, meaningful connection between its two major players." Posted Mar 20, 2008	Love in the Time of Cholera (2007)	27%
2/5	"A competent suspenser, helped by the always-dependable Diane Lane, but it suffers by following the modern thriller playbook to the letter." Posted Feb 28, 2008	Untraceable (2008)	15%
3/5	"An entertaining romp through familiar cop-and-crim cat-and-mousery, bolstered by strong star turns from Washington and Crowe. Still, it has neither the intelligence nor the grip to jump from the merely good to the truly great." Posted Nov 14, 2007	American Gangster (2007)	79%
2/5	"This should have been Soderbergh gold. Instead it is mostly unengaging and dull, proof positive that they don�t make them like they used to." Posted Mar 7, 2007	The Good German (2006)	33%
3/5	"If you hear the Rocky theme and think �118 118�, you might wonder what all the fuss is about. For the rest of us, this is a reminder of why we fell in love with the character in the first place." Posted Jan 4, 2007	Rocky Balboa (2006)	76%
4/5	"It may be too slow for some tastes, but Babel remains emotionally bruising but compulsive viewing." Posted Jan 4, 2007	Babel (2006)	68%
3/5	"It�s an enjoyable adaptation and good enough for us to welcome this new franchise." Posted Dec 30, 2006	The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, The Witch, and the Wardrobe (2005)	75%
4/5	"Practically pitch-perfect summer entertainment." Posted Dec 30, 2006	Spider-Man (2002)	90%
2/5	"Surprisingly sedate telling of the rather well-known tale from Catherine Hardwicke." Posted Nov 29, 2006	The Nativity Story (2006)	39%
4/5	"It might be Charlie Kaufman lite, but this is a great date movie for the discerning - smart, ingenious and heartwarming." Posted Nov 29, 2006	Stranger Than Fiction (2006)	73%
4/5	"A hedonistic riot of spirited, capricious filmmaking; a sexy, witty, dynamic romp, fired by more imagination than a thousand Merchant Ivorys and propelled by the best soundtrack of the year." Posted Oct 16, 2006	Marie Antoinette (2006)	54%
2/5	"One of the most talk driven summer flicks in living memory, an out of sorts Howard transforms what should be a fun treasure trail romp into something inert and borderline dreary." Posted Oct 4, 2006	The Da Vinci Code (2006)	25%
3/5	"A compelling idea delicately handled and neatly played, especially by Bullock. It just lacks the emotional directness to turn the good into the great." Posted Oct 4, 2006	The Lake House (2006)	36%
5/5	"For a kids film this is pleasingly dark with Gilliam delivering as much classical fairy tale as knockabout comedy." Posted Aug 30, 2006	Time Bandits (1982)	94%
4/5	"A scary, sharp, funny movie, this is the best kids� flick of the year so far." Posted Aug 11, 2006	Monster House (2006)	73%
3/5	"If you place a premium on original vision and creative risk, then there is much pleasure to be had watching a born storyteller juggle more balls than even he can carry." Posted Aug 11, 2006	Lady in the Water (2006)	24%
3/5	"A compelling idea delicately handled and neatly played, especially by Bullock. It just lacks the emotional directness to turn the good into the great." Posted Jun 24, 2006	The Lake House (2006)	36%
2/5	"An out of sorts Howard transforms what should be a fun treasure trail romp into something inert and borderline dreary." Posted May 20, 2006	The Da Vinci Code (2006)	25%
2/5	"Despite some inventive photography and decent gore for its day, its uneven pace renders it a curio for Coppola fans." Posted May 6, 2006	Dementia 13 (1963)	50%
3/5	"Terrific as a musical, indifferent as a drama, the movie�s great cast fails to rescue a scattershot approach. See it, though, for Walken on inspired form." Posted Apr 1, 2006	Romance & Cigarettes (2007)	53%
4/5	"Malick�s magic remains undiminished." Posted Apr 1, 2006	The New World (2005)	60%
4/5	"Boasting one of the most iconic characters ever in Plissken, and an effective sci-fi set-up, this is entertainment of the highest order." Posted Nov 3, 2005	Escape from New York (1981)	83%
4/5	"Neglected on its initial release, this now stands as a classic science fiction movie and one of the most remarkable debuts of the 70s." Posted Oct 6, 2004	THX 1138 (1971)	89%
2/5	"Despite some incidental pleasures, thin writing, shabby direction and heavy-handed performances make this neither one for the purists nor thrill-seeking kids." Posted Jul 23, 2004	Thunderbirds (2004)	18%
2/5	"For all the impressive production values on show, you can't help feeling that less would be considerably more." Posted May 14, 2004	Van Helsing (2004)	22%
5/5	"The first blend of animation and live-action that seemed so natural we felt the characters were real. There's many a lad still harbouring a crush on Jessica Rabbit." Posted May 2, 2003	Who Framed Roger Rabbit? (1988)	100%
3/5	"A thoroughly entertaining, efficiently mounted thriller." Posted May 2, 2003	Red Dragon (2002)	68%

2/5	"The arc of their romance ... has nothing in the way of surprises or quirks to lift it out of the ordinary." Posted Aug 6, 2001	Crazy/Beautiful (2001)	62%
3/5	"A likeable, sporadically funny movie that will satisfy the less demanding tot." Posted Aug 6, 2001	Dr. Dolittle 2 (2001)	41%
3/5	"Some strong action sequences, a consistent treat for the eyeballs and an early glimpse of the future of animation." Posted Aug 3, 2001	Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within (2001)	44%
3/5	"Ed Harris is great as a reserved, calculating marksman, but always hints at a buried humanity." Posted Mar 16, 2001	Enemy at the Gates (2001)	59%

	"It may lack the eye for detail and biting intelligence that David Lean might have brought, but Gibson�s commitment, ability to evoke bold emotions and create fantastically-mounted action make this glorious fun." Posted Feb 13, 2001	Braveheart (1995)	76%
3/5	"Unworkable farce, it maybe, but it is also blessed with the buzz of brilliance." Posted Jan 1, 2000	1941 (1979)	30%
3/5	"While the resolution may never be in doubt, how the film arrives there is a constant source of pleasure." Posted Jan 1, 2000	A Perfect Murder (1998)	54%
4/5	"when it is served up with such pulpy panache, old-fashioned expertise and a hero so easy to root for" Posted Jan 1, 2000	Air Force One (1997)	78%
4/5	"You may go in for the sicko laughs but you'll exit with a big goofy grin and warmed cockles. The best of both worlds." Posted Jan 1, 2000	American Pie (1999)	60%
4/5	"*Sadly neglected, high-gag comedy from the South Park* lads.*" Posted Jan 1, 2000*	Baseketball (1998)	41%
3/5	"Grooves without ever getting to the heart of how ridiculous parading with pom poms actually is." Posted Jan 1, 2000	Bring It On (2000)	64%
3/5	"It's fun spotting stars under cakes of make-up and the panache, great supporting cast and good-natured, old-fashioned feel make for a better movie than you remember." Posted Jan 1, 2000	Dick Tracy (1990)	68%
	"Never as engaging or heartfelt as it should be, mainly because the erratic plotting scuppers possible involvement with the characters." Posted Jan 1, 2000	Happy Together (1997)	77%
3/5	"...smart, good-natured and fun." Posted Jan 1, 2000	Harriet the Spy (1996)	41%
