4/5
 
"Arguably the most influential comedy of our time."
Posted May 6, 2008
 
National Lampoon's Animal House (1978)88%
/
5/5
 
"This is a beautifully crafted, hopeful movie."
Posted Feb 19, 2008
 
Schindler's List (1993)96%
/
5/5
 
"They say that great actors are never knowingly caught acting; Altman's best movies are similarly effortless - experiences to be lived in, rather than simply watched."
Posted May 4, 2007
 
McCabe & Mrs. Miller (1971)89%
/
1/5
 
"Heroically bad."
Posted Dec 30, 2006
 
Glitter (2001)6%
/
4/5
 
"Hugely ambitious and wildly successful in parts, only a tricky third act trips up a master director clearly enjoying himself in virgin territory. Nonetheless this stands as the best future noir since Blade Runner."
Posted Dec 30, 2006
 
Minority Report (2002)92%
/
5/5
 
"This cold-blooded satire is at once subtle and savage."
Posted Dec 30, 2006
 
Sunset Boulevard (1950)100%
/
4/5
 
"So much better than Del Toro's studio efforts, with a masterful command of sound and and colour that is breathtaking."
Posted Dec 30, 2006
 
The Devil's Backbone (2001)92%
/
1/5
 
"Boy, does the final reel stink."
Posted Dec 30, 2006
 
Dragonfly (2002)7%
/
5/5
 
"Putting formula blockbusters to shame, Fellowship is impeccably cast and constructed with both care and passion."
Posted Dec 30, 2006
 
The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring (2001)92%
/
4/5
 
"To steal from Ali, this one floats like a butterfly and stings like a bee."
Posted Apr 1, 2006
 
Million Dollar Baby (2004)92%
/
5/5
 
"Star Kirk Douglas used to say he didn’t have to wait 50 years to know that Paths Of Glory would 'always be good.' He was right."
Posted Apr 1, 2006
 
Paths of Glory (1957)92%
/
4/5
 
"The actors all benefit from intimate knowledge of difficult parts, and barbs at modern art and sexual mores do cut through."
Posted Apr 1, 2006
 
The Shape of Things (2003)64%
/
4/5
 
"Disturbing, uncompromising and completely gripping."
Posted Apr 1, 2006
 
Dead Man's Shoes (2006)55%
/
4/5
 
"A greatest-hits package from our greatest living entertainer, there is almost overmuch to admire here, but only the moments that aspire to post-9/11 relevance chill as well as thrill."
Posted Jul 5, 2005
 
War of the Worlds (2005)73%
/
4/5
 
"Brad Bird strays from the Pixar formula but still delivers enough colour and thrills to keep the faithful happy."
Posted Jun 25, 2005
 
The Incredibles (2004)97%
/
4/5
 
"Mercifully, Revenge Of The Sith is (deep sigh) light-years ahead of the turgid Menace and the undercooked Clones."
Posted May 9, 2005
 
Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith (2005)79%
/
4/5
 
"Perhaps the best premise for thrills since Speed, only this time the bad guy's on board and the battle of wits is more philosophical debate than pop quiz."
Posted Sep 18, 2004
 
Collateral (2004)86%
/
5/5
 
"A simultaneuosly touching and harrowing experience that puts the audience directly in the shoes of one man's experience of Vietnam."
Posted Aug 4, 2004
 
The Deer Hunter (1978)90%
/
3/5
 
"Here, at last, Harry Potter And The Movie Adventure hauls itself up to the standards set by the brilliant books."
Posted Jun 4, 2004
 
Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban (2004)89%
/
4/5
 
"Some people may find the early going tough, but this remarkable movie is in possession of a serious mind and a rare, true heart."
Posted May 14, 2004
 
Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind (2004)94%
/
4/5
 
"Everybody is good at one thing, they say; for Emmerich, it's destruction."

"Patronising hybrid of a myriad of other teen movies. Don't bother, just watch them instead."

Save the Last Dance (2001)54%

3/5
 
"A pretty original concoction, spiked with mind bending pseudo-science as well as tear-jerking emotional gravitas."

"Chuck & Buck won't make for the most relaxed evening's entertainment by any means, but it is funny and daring, and well worth the occasional shudder."

"As direct and simple as it is funny and moving, this is a masterpiece of dramatic naturalism."

One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest (1975)98%

"The 11 minutes aside, what really makes this version worth catching on the big screen is the enhanced print. Digital cleaning has given shape and (horrific) form to the subliminal images peppered throughout."
