Star Wars: Episode IV - A New Hope (1977)
94%
“It is both fascinating while it's happening -- you are forever chuckling at the wit of it all -- and deeply satisfying when it's all over. When peace and freedom are restored to the galaxy you feel good like you seldom do after anything.” –

Lucky Lady (1975)
25%
“The major problem with Lucky Lady is that the people who made it bit off more than they could chew. They tried to make many movies in one -- and ended up with one that is not quite anything.” –

Barry Lyndon (1975)

“Something is missing, some spark that would take all the pretty pictures and turn them into a movie. You wait for it to come -- this is, after all, a Kubrick movie -- but it doesn't come.” –

“Reasonably enjoyable... Billy Dee Williams, Richard Pryor and Earl Jones, each in his way an attractive screen personality.” –

Dog Day Afternoon (1975)
96%
“If there is a complaint, it is that the people who made the movie liked it too much, couldn't decide what to cut to bring it under its slightly bulky two hours-plus length. But that's a minor thing.” –

Little Big Man (1970)
91%
“Hollywood seems to be making a point these days of giving the Indians their due, and it's never been done better or more fairly than Arthur Penn and his crew have done here. Still, Little Big Man is a comedy and it works beautifully on that level, too.” –

The Last Picture Show (1971)

“Director Peter Bogdanvoich has created a tapestry in which threads of all these changes have been sewn. The resulting work is clear, precise, and easily understood; but its construction has been painstaking, complicated and all-inclusive. ” –

Taxi Driver (1976)
89%
“It is a gut-wrenching movie, vital, pointed, intelligent, interesting and scary -- not scary so much for what happens on the screen, but scary because everything the movie says and suggests you know is true. ” –

Fiddler on the Roof (1971)

“"Fiddler" is simply not the fun-filled, brimming-over-with-life, laugh getting, tear-drawing, complete experience the play must be and the movie should have been. ” –

Andy Warhol's Trash (1970)
80%
“You get the impression that the characters' screen roles account for only part of their weirdness. In that, Trash offers a look at a way of life, the junk, welfare, and garbage-picking included, that's as disappointing and as rewarding as any.” –

“Allen has produced a movie that is at once his most self-indulgent and, in its evaluation of the mid-20th century North American Zeitgeist, his most interesting. ” –

Tess (1979)
81%
“Kinski's performance... doesn't break this movie by any means, but it doesn't really make it, either. That's a serious complaint, but it's the only one. Otherwise, Polanski's Tess is as close to filmmaking perfection as we're likely to see.” –

Oliver! (1968)

“A nice balance has been created between the sentimental and the comic. Things seldom become tearfully sad; nor are there any sequences of side-splitting humor. Rather, there is a constant mood of lightness and a quick-paced pleasantness.” –
