Pulp Fiction (1994)
92%
“Like its source material, Pulp Fiction is comic and grim, sun-soaked and shadowy, tender and blunt. A pop-drenched dream reel, the film is both a reverential nod to the power of words and a stunning entertainment that more than lives up to its hype.” –

Four Weddings and a Funeral (1994)

“If "Four Weddings" is a stab at recovering -- or inventing -- an atmosphere of leisure and sunny innocence, then it's a facile effort that relies on glib banter and the upbeat fantasy of a classless society.” –

When a Man Loves a Woman (1994)
69%
“Garcia, too, disappears brilliantly into his role, that of a well-meaning but inflexible man unable to cope with the transformations brought about by Ryan's attempts to sober up. [It's] a serious relationship study on par with the best of John Cassavetes.” –

Internal Affairs (1990)

“As a thriller, Internal Affairs works to some degree, though I found myself not caring. The twists, turns, surprise revelations, unexpected snuffing's, etc., are played out amidst an entirely flat, deadening storyline.” –
