3/5
 
"Substantial credit should also go to Terence Stamp's casually menacing General Zod, who transcends his terrible costume and make-up to appear a convincing threat."
Posted Sep 26, 2001
 
Superman II (1980)87%
/
3/5
 
"A pure back-to-basics action-adventure spy drama which mostly delivers."
Posted Sep 11, 2001
 
The Living Daylights (1987)78%
/
2/5
 
"The plot holes are obvious and disconcerting, the sub-plots feel tacked-on, and the characters are both thinly-drawn and badly-played."
Posted Sep 10, 2001
 
Star Trek: Generations (1994)48%
/
3/5
 
"A lightweight, slight movie which only looks savagely convincing."

Planet of the Apes (2001)45%

5/5
 
"By far the best part of the trilogy, Empire is a classic that completely transcends its genre, with a reputation that can only grow and grow."
Posted Aug 1, 2001
 
The Empire Strikes Back (1980)97%
/
2/5
 
"The kind of film that children may find amusing but their parents will wish that they didn't."
Posted Jul 23, 2001
 
Dr. Dolittle 2 (2001)41%
/
3/5
 
"Mars Attacks! wants to be the Dr Strangelove of alien B-movies, but isn't up to the challenge. Instead it's a paceless, overlong, and campy film partly redeemed by a number of hilarious and gruesome alien invasion skits."
Posted Jun 27, 2001
 
Mars Attacks! (1996)49%
/
2/5
 
"The Planet of the Apes series started well, and gradually decreased in budget and quality. By Battle the budget is all but gone, and all the believability and excitement has gone with it."
Posted Jun 19, 2001
 
Battle for the Planet of the Apes (1973)38%
/
3/5
 
"It works fairly well as the central movie of the franchise but will have little to offer non-devotees."
Posted Jun 13, 2001
 
Escape From the Planet of the Apes (1971)78%
/
3/5
 
"If you are ready to thrill to the fall of civilisation (for the third time in this series), then there are worse ways to spend an afternoon. Just don't expect much humour."
Posted Jun 13, 2001
 
Conquest of the Planet of the Apes (1972)50%
/
4/5
 
"While Scream 3 is only an above-average film in its own right, as the conclusion to the trilogy it works more effectively than anyone had a right to expect."
Posted May 29, 2001
 
Scream 3 (2000)39%
/
5/5
 
"Retains the freshness of an original -- exploring the difficulties and corruptions of working stiffs with a realism, sensitivity and intelligence that has seldom been matched since."
Posted May 23, 2001
 
On the Waterfront (1954)100%
