Mission: Impossible II (2000) 57% 2.5/4 “Newton gets her first real shot at a lead in a slick, big budget mainstream movie and delivers a star-making performance. ” – New York Daily News May 8, 2025 Full Review Star Wars: Episode VI - Return of the Jedi (1983) 83% 4/4 “Return of the Jedi is a perfect conclusion to the Star Wars saga. It doesn't have the surprise of discovery that came with the first film... But for sheer audience enjoyment, it may rank No. 1.” – Newsday Apr 25, 2025 Full Review Star Wars: Episode V - The Empire Strikes Back (1980) 93% “The Empire Strikes Back will deserve whatever it earns. Despite the inevitable loss of exhilaration moviegoers will experience from a second installment, it is an extraordinarily broad audience entertainment.” – Detroit Free Press Apr 24, 2025 Full Review Star Wars: Episode IV - A New Hope (1977) 94% 3.5/4 “I was struck by how far storytelling has fallen in the intervening decades. Compared to last summer's blockbuster cartoon, Independence Day, Star Wars is as dense as Dickens, and its characters virtually Chekhovian. ” – Newsday Apr 22, 2025 Full Review Tarzan (1999) 90% 4/4 “Tarzan is one of the most exhilarating animated movies ever made, and easily Disney's best since The Lion King.” – New York Daily News Dec 20, 2024 Full Review Mulan (1998) 92% 3.5/4 “Mulan is one of Disney's most daring animated features and, at the same time, its the most child-friendly since The Lion King.” – Newsday Dec 20, 2024 Full Review The Lion King (1994) 93% 3.5/4 “The funniest, hippest, liveliest and most exhilarating family picture...” – Newsday Dec 19, 2024 Full Review Hercules (1997) 83% 3.5/4 “Hercules is the fourth animated Disney feature by the writing-directing team of John Muster and Ron Clements, and its humor, energy and pacing are on a par with their Aladdin and The Little Mermaid. ” – Newsday Dec 18, 2024 Full Review Pocahontas (1995) 58% 2.5/4 “With one eye on history and one on the box office, Disney attempts to wrap a conventional fairy tale romance in a cloak of political correctness, and suffocates the life and humor right out of the movie.” – Newsday Dec 17, 2024 Full Review Bram Stoker's Dracula (1992) 69% 2/4 “The Coppola version of the classic Gothic tale is more faithful to the novel than most, at least in the number of specific references to it, but it is also the most incoherent, the most suspense less, and the least involving.” – Newsday Sep 26, 2024 Full Review Alien Resurrection (1997) 55% 1.5/4 “Call me jaded, if you've seen one skull crushed, you've seen them all.” – Newsday Aug 6, 2024 Full Review Napoleon (1927) 87% “Napoleon is a razzle-dazzle show of sight and sound, but it is also a marvelously told, good-humored biography of one of history's men of destiny.” – Detroit Free Press May 14, 2024 Full Review Planet of the Apes (2001) 43% 2.5/4 “It's a toy-store attraction, with an impressive line of lifelike primates, and though these hirsute creatures think and talk, they don't think or talk about much of importance.” – New York Daily News May 1, 2024 Full Review Seven (1995) 84% 2.5/4 “Spacey gives a truly chilling performance, madness under glass, and without it Seven would be nothing.” – Newsday Mar 29, 2024 Full Review Almost Famous (2000) 91% 4/4 “The real achievement of Almost Famous is its point of view -- that sense of passion and discovery that imbued Crowe and now spills out, unpolluted, onto the screen.” – New York Daily News Mar 26, 2024 Full Review The Shawshank Redemption (1994) 89% 3/4 “You've never seen a prison movie quite like it, and I found its eccentric rhythms and the performances of co-stars Tim Robbins and Morgan Freeman nearly irresistible.” – Newsday Mar 4, 2024 Full Review Forrest Gump (1994) 75% 4/4 “Forrest Gump manages to examine some of the basic questions of human life and to add perspective to the two most disruptive decades in modern history.” – Newsday Mar 1, 2024 Full Review Quiz Show (1994) 97% 3/4 “If you... accept the film purely as entertainment, it is a pretty sensational movie, the best in Redford's decorous directing career, and perhaps the most captivating non-action thriller since All the President's Men.” – Newsday Feb 13, 2024 Full Review The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas (1982) 50% 6/10 “"The Best Little Whorehouse" is, in spots at least, a romping musical good time.” – Detroit Free Press Dec 31, 2023 Full Review Heat (1995) 84% 3/4 “It is huge commercial grandstanding by all involved, and will satisfy no one hoping for a mano-a-mano acting clinic. But hey, it could have been Nick Nolte and Eddie Murphy.” – Newsday Dec 21, 2023 Full Review The Last of the Mohicans (1992) 88% 3/4 “The scene where Hawkeye and Cora slip into the dark to release their passion is a modern film anomaly; fully clothed, they manage to burn a hole in the screen merely through the passion of their embrace, their kissing. What a concept!” – Newsday Dec 15, 2023 Full Review Atanarjuat the Fast Runner (2001) 93% 4/4 “Not only one of the most intriguing feature-film projects in decades and enough plain-spoken anthropology for three credits at Harvard, but one of the most flat-out entertaining movies of the year. ” – New York Daily News Nov 8, 2023 Full Review Raging Bull (1980) 92% “Raging Bull is a compelling film, well written and crafted, superbly acted. In this leanest of all movie seasons, it is one of a handful of genuine contenders. ” – Detroit Free Press Oct 10, 2023 Full Review Lone Star (1996) 91% 3.5/4 “As with most of Sayles films, the performances effect a kind of subdued naturalism. Cooper plays Sam with a matter-of-factness that belies the turmoil inside.” – Newsday Sep 6, 2023 Full Review Selena (1997) 66% 3/4 “In capturing the essential appeal of Selena to the millions of Latinos who adored her, Nava has come up with one of the most joyous and effective celebrations of an entertainer's life in memory. ” – Newsday Sep 5, 2023 Full Review
