Starman (1984) 84% “While the movie is extremely well acted and paced, director Carpenter is never able to impose his own style on such blatantly second-hand material.” – Bergen Record (New Jersey) May 13, 2025 Full Review Do the Right Thing (1989) 92% 3.5/4 “By not presuming to offer facile solutions to problems that have confounded generations of Americans, Lee has done the right thing.” – Bergen Record (New Jersey) Mar 13, 2025 Full Review Shampoo (1975) 75% “For Beatty buffs, it's just great. For anybody else, this "Shampoo" goes down the drain.” – Bergen Record (New Jersey) Feb 10, 2025 Full Review Blue Velvet (1986) 91% 2/4 “The problem is that Blue Velvet doesn't even follow its own perverse rules of logic. It's a jumble of styles and scenes, none of which follows from, or builds towards, anything. ” – Bergen Record (New Jersey) Jan 22, 2025 Full Review Night Zoo (1987) 2.5/4 “Night Zoo holds the interest because of the tension between its utterly incongruous elements...” – Bergen Record (New Jersey) Aug 21, 2024 Full Review Beetlejuice (1988) 83% 2.5/4 “When Keaton is off-screen, watching Beetlejuice is a little like being in a coma where you're vaguely aware of what's going on around you, yet none of it makes a whole lot of sense. ” – Bergen Record (New Jersey) Aug 21, 2024 Full Review Aliens (1986) 94% “What can I say? Aliens is the scariest and most exciting movie I've seen in several years. My adrenalin was still racing an hour later. It's involving. It has well-drawn characters. It has consistency. And Sigourney Weaver gives a dazzling performance.” – Bergen Record (New Jersey) Jul 30, 2024 Full Review When Harry Met Sally... (1989) 89% 2.5/4 “When Harry Met Sally... is this summer's date movie, well-made and entertaining but hardly brilliant. ” – Bergen Record (New Jersey) Jul 3, 2024 Full Review Batman (1989) 77% 3.5/4 “Batman is a feast for the eyes and ears, with Anton Furst's massive, elegantly ugly sets of Gotham City, Danny Elfman's lovely, classically-oriented score, and dazzling special effects. It is also one long gas, thanks to Jack Nicholson. ” – Bergen Record (New Jersey) Jul 25, 2023 Full Review Raiders of the Lost Ark (1981) 94% “Raiders makes for a very entertaining summer afternoon, but it's ultimately a junk-food movie that will be forgotten long before either man's previous work.” – Bergen Record (New Jersey) May 2, 2023 Full Review Evil Dead II (1987) 88% 2/4 “Raimi's style is very reminiscent of his previous collaborations with Joel and Ethan Coen... But while the Coens have found substance to fit their style in Raising Arizona, Raimi is still making glorified splatter movies, however fitfully amusing.” – Bergen Record (New Jersey) Mar 29, 2023 Full Review Platoon (1986) 89% 3.5/4 “While Platoon is easily one of the year's finest films, I'm not sure if it's the long-awaited definitive Vietnam movie, as some early reviews have suggested. But it is the gamest attempt so far to explain how America suffered a humiliating defeat.” – Bergen Record (New Jersey) Aug 16, 2022 Full Review Rain Man (1988) 88% 3/4 “Rain Man really belongs to Hoffman, whose precisely limned Raymond is in a class with his other amazing transformations in Tootsie, Little Big Man, and Midnight Cowboy. It really cries out to be seen rather than described.” – Bergen Record (New Jersey) Aug 4, 2022 Full Review Amadeus (1984) 90% “Mozart's subtle, timeless melodies are what sustains Amadeus over its dramatic rough spots, though Shaffer and Forman do manage to end things on a grace note. ” – Bergen Record (New Jersey) Aug 2, 2022 Full Review Gandhi (1982) 89% “Given the inherent obstacles in Gandhi, Richard Attenborough has directed an astonishingly successful epic that pulls audiences along on an emotional tether for nearly 3.5 hours. ” – Bergen Record (New Jersey) Aug 2, 2022 Full Review Testament (1983) 89% “Extraordinarily powerful.” – Bergen Record (New Jersey) May 10, 2021 Full Review Sugar Cane Alley (1983) 100% “Palcy's eye for detail and color make this film something quite special. She's elicited wonderful performances from an ensemble headed by Garry Cadenat as Jose and Darling Legitimus as his indomitable, pipe-smoking grandmother.” – Bergen Record (New Jersey) May 7, 2021 Full Review Out of Africa (1985) 62% “Considering the wealth of writings by Isak Dinesen and others that its makers had to draw on, this lumbering, $30-million prestige picture is astonishingly glossy, distressingly conventional, and grossly overlong.” – Bergen Record (New Jersey) Mar 31, 2021 Full Review Where Do We Go From Here? (1945) 3/4 “It has some wonderful moments, and how many other time-travel musicals can you name besides Just Imagine?” – New York Post Mar 1, 2019 Full Review Deepwater Horizon (2016) 82% 3/4 “This year's ultimate guilty pleasure at the movies.” – New York Post Sep 29, 2016 Full Review The Magnificent Seven (2016) 64% 3/4 “This entertaining and handsome-looking version of "The Magnificent Seven" is very much tailored to his star, right down to Washington's real-life history as a preacher's son.” – New York Post Sep 22, 2016 Full Review Amanda Knox (2016) 82% 2/4 “Knox, now 29, is extensively quoted in the documentary, which reveals no new information about the case” – New York Post Sep 20, 2016 Full Review Sully (2016) 85% 3.5/4 “At its heart, this is a thrilling tribute to a modest hero who rose to an extraordinary occasion.” – New York Post Sep 6, 2016 Full Review Max Rose (2013) 38% 1/4 “Two decades after his last film, the legendary Jerry Lewis performs a truly unfortunate encore playing an elderly widower in writer-director Daniel Noah's morose and thoroughly unconvincing drama.” – New York Post Sep 1, 2016 Full Review Ben-Hur (2016) 25% 0/4 “A film that fails to deliver pretty much all the way down the line.” – New York Post Aug 18, 2016 Full Review
