Fire in the Sky (1993) 50% “The film tells its story in deadly earnest, and that is its greatest failing.” – Deseret News (Salt Lake City) Jan 28, 2025 Full Review Pulp Fiction (1994) 92% “[Tarantino] truly is a remarkable filmmaker -- and Pulp Fiction is indeed a remarkable film.” – Deseret News (Salt Lake City) Feb 29, 2024 Full Review When a Man Loves a Woman (1994) 69% “[The film] distinguishes itself in some ways, yet never completely pulls itself out of the inevitable clichés that come with this territory. Still, Ryan is so compelling and the message here so hopeful, it's hard not to find the film compelling.” – Deseret News (Salt Lake City) Sep 1, 2023 Full Review Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade (1989) 84% “It's impossible to recapture the joy and wonder of seeing a superlative picture like Raiders for the first time, but to his credit Spielberg comes very close.” – Deseret News (Salt Lake City) May 1, 2023 Full Review Little Nemo: Adventures in Slumberland (1992) 55% “Unfortunately, the story and dialogue are not nearly as witty and inventive as the weakest Disney animated feature, which results too often in dull, sluggish sequences. As a result, Little Nemo is strictly for small fry.” – Deseret News (Salt Lake City) Mar 7, 2023 Full Review Copycat (1995) 76% “"Copy-cat" is an efficient thriller in the current serial-killer genre, thanks to top-of-the-line performances from its stars.” – Deseret News (Salt Lake City) Aug 10, 2022 Full Review Wyatt Earp (1994) 31% “An interminably long, numbingly slow and woefully underdeveloped epic that is more likely to bring on drowsiness than enlightenment.” – Deseret News (Salt Lake City) Dec 21, 2021 Full Review Backdraft (1991) 73% “Director Ron Howard and screenwriter Gregory Widen seem to aspire to serious notions, but they are constantly sidetracked by soap opera cliches and slam-bang pyrotechnics.” – Deseret News (Salt Lake City) Aug 3, 2021 Full Review Rooftops (1989) 10% “The biggest problem with "Rooftops" is that it can't decide whether to be a light dance fantasy or a heavy-handed thriller.” – Deseret News (Salt Lake City) Jun 18, 2021 Full Review Prayers for Bobby (2009) 73% “A nice showcase for Weaver, a sensitive story given the light Lifetime touch. Have a box of Kleenex nearby.” – Deseret News (Salt Lake City) Oct 3, 2019 Full Review Jim Gaffigan: Obsessed (2014) 100% “The bulk of his comedy is, as always, his "obsession" with food and his observations are truly hilarious, ranging from eating ice cream to lusting after donuts to trying to figure out seafood.” – Deseret News (Salt Lake City) Jul 25, 2019 Full Review Ken Burns: The Civil War (2015) 100% “Groundbreaking in its style and haunting in its imagery, and in readings by such actors as Jason Robards, Morgan Freeman and Sam Waterston, the miniseries manages to personalize Civil War history better than any film before or since.” – Deseret News (Salt Lake City) May 24, 2019 Full Review Don Juan DeMarco (1995) 72% “If ever there was a movie that is more enjoyable than it has any right to be on the surface, it's this one.” – Deseret News (Salt Lake City) Mar 4, 2019 Full Review My Life (1993) 44% “The film is, as Rubin is fond of saying in interviews, a "life-affirming" film and has something to say about how we should view our brief stay on the planet.” – Deseret News (Salt Lake City) Mar 4, 2019 Full Review Malice (1993) 55% “Malice is a film that very much wants to be a combination of Body Heat and classic Hitchcock -- but how you take to it will depend on your patience with silly cliches and plot holes large enough to hide dinosaurs.” – Deseret News (Salt Lake City) Mar 4, 2019 Full Review Dead Man (1995) 69% 2/4 “Dead Man is surprisingly bland. And it becomes more dull -- and more grotesque -- as it moves along.” – Deseret News (Salt Lake City) Nov 9, 2018 Full Review The Portrait of a Lady (1996) 47% “The cinematography is gorgeous, the sets and costumes are opulent, and Campion has assembled a first-rate A-level cast, led by Nicole Kidman.” – Deseret News (Salt Lake City) Oct 26, 2018 Full Review Far and Away (1992) 51% “The story is ridiculously old-fashioned, with romantic flourishes and visual spectacle (the land-rush scenes are outstanding) in place of an interesting storyline and well-developed characters.” – Deseret News (Salt Lake City) Oct 25, 2018 Full Review Billy Bathgate (1991) 36% “There's plenty of glossy, slick entertainment here if you haven't gotten overly tired of mob flicks.” – Deseret News (Salt Lake City) Oct 24, 2018 Full Review Miracle on 34th Street (1994) 60% “As remakes go, this one is a moderately satisfying big-screen event for holiday family viewing . . . though I would heartily recommend renting the original instead.” – Deseret News (Salt Lake City) Oct 23, 2018 Full Review Look Who's Talking Too (1990) 13% “Simply a one-joke movie that too quickly wore out its welcome.” – Deseret News (Salt Lake City) May 21, 2018 Full Review Kids for Cash (2013) 92% “The film is imperfect in its structure, but director Robert May never sensationalizes what is horrifying enough in its straightforward telling.” – Deseret News (Salt Lake City) Jun 9, 2014 Full Review Some Girls (1988) 43% “There are some sweet moments and several very funny scenes, mostly of the door-slamming, mistaken identity variety.” – Deseret News (Salt Lake City) Dec 17, 2012 Full Review Nothing but the Truth (2008) 82% “Alda's performance is a real stand-out, but all the actors are in fine form, to include Angela Basset, Noah Wyle and David Schwimmer.” – Deseret News (Salt Lake City) May 5, 2009 Full Review Valkyrie (2008) 62% 2/5 “There's a whiff of pointlessness hanging over this whole affair. The fact that Valkyrie is not the thriller the trailer promises is treason against the talent.” – Total Film Jan 23, 2009 Full Review
