I Think I Do (1997) 42% 2/4 “It begins promisingly but ultimately sinks by succumbing to the courage of its convictions. And convictions are the last thing anybody needs in these featherweight romantic romps.” – San Francisco Examiner Apr 17, 2024 Full Review Sudden Impact (1983) 51% 2/4 “What it all comes down to is an exercise in manipulation for the Neanderthal sensibility. ” – San Francisco Examiner May 12, 2023 Full Review Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom (1984) 77% 3/4 “For mindless movie entertainment this summer, it is highly unlikely that you will do better than Steven Spielberg's certain mega-hit.” – San Francisco Examiner Apr 17, 2023 Full Review Amadeus (1984) 90% 4/4 “It is a feast for the eye, caviar for the mind and pure balm for the spirit. It is a tribute to film craftsmanship at its loftiest. It is also a marvelously witty, provocative and touching story of souls in conflict.” – San Francisco Examiner Jul 8, 2022 Full Review Poltergeist II (1986) 20% 1.5/4 “A movie lodged somewhere between life and death, between rip-off and invention, between exploitation and mordant wit.” – San Francisco Examiner Nov 3, 2021 Full Review The Pope of Greenwich Village (1984) 77% “Director Stuart Rosenberg, who hasn't made a really memorable movie since "Cool Hand Luke" in 1967, apparently believes that screaming and gesticulating can cover a multitude of plot lapses, needless digressions and hazy strokes of characterization.” – San Francisco Examiner Oct 30, 2021 Full Review Sugar Cane Alley (1983) 100% 3/4 “[Sugar Cane Alley is] 1984's most delightful movie surprise. This one simply glows.” – San Francisco Examiner May 7, 2021 Full Review Top Secret! (1984) 77% 3/4 “Abrahams-Zucker-Zucker scatter the jokes the way farmers scatter corn around a chicken house. They're shameless.” – San Francisco Examiner Apr 20, 2021 Full Review First Position (2011) 93% 3/4 “Yes, it is possible to create a gripping documentary about the ballet world without resorting to "Black Swan" melodramatics.” – San Francisco Chronicle May 10, 2012 Full Review Breath Made Visible (2009) 89% 3/4 “Finally, as she approaches her 90th birthday, San Rafael-based modern dance pioneer Anna Halprin is honored with a documentary that reflects her wide influence and eternally questing spirit.” – San Francisco Chronicle Apr 1, 2010 Full Review Barb Wire (1996) 28% 1/4 “The hypocrisy level is annoying.” – San Francisco Examiner Jan 1, 2000 Full Review Freeway (1996) 76% “A hip, corrosive and often hilarious entertainment, the movie strikes another blow for the American independent film.” – San Francisco Examiner Jan 1, 2000 Full Review Hilary and Jackie (1998) 88% “What we never discover - and it is a fatal lapse in films like this - is why music has so seized Jackie, why it is important for her to be an artist, at the risk of her sanity.” – San Francisco Examiner Jan 1, 2000 Full Review Flamenco, Flamenco (2010) 79% “Flamenco is also Saura's purest effort at capturing dance on film, a triumph from first frame to last.” – San Francisco Examiner Jan 1, 2000 Full Review The Faculty (1998) 57% 2/4 “In his quest for youth appeal, [Robert] Rodriguez only intermittently capitalizes on the satiric possibilities... The Faculty deserves a week of detention, not so much for missing the point as for blunting it.” – San Francisco Examiner Jan 1, 2000 Full Review The Devil's Advocate (1997) 63% “A muddled metaphysical thriller that takes a small eternity to engage the observer with its flimsy characters and its tired special effects.” – San Francisco Examiner Jan 1, 2000 Full Review
