Def Jam's How to Be a Player (1997) 14% “These reflections are illuminating, but the gags don't venture beyond crassness.” – Independent on Sunday Aug 6, 2024 Full Review 8 Heads in a Duffel Bag (1997) 7% “Joe Pesci plays the mild-manner sadist on his trail, and judging by the credits, seems to have assembled his little on-set gang of mafiosi... Audiences will feel a lot less pampered. ” – Independent on Sunday Aug 6, 2024 Full Review The Myth of Fingerprints (1997) 64% “Efficient performances from Blythe Danner and ER's Noah Wyle can't lift the atmosphere of ponderous self-absorption. ” – Independent on Sunday Aug 6, 2024 Full Review The Tango Lesson (1997) 50% “The effect is like being told an immensely long, shamelessly self-congratulatory anecdote by someone so deeply in love with herself that she has lost all sense of irony or humility.” – Independent on Sunday Aug 6, 2024 Full Review A Merry War (1997) 69% “Unremarkable but efficient period film-making, crucially energised by a performance of battery-acid tartness by the incomparable Richard E. Grant.” – Independent on Sunday Aug 6, 2024 Full Review Under the Skin (1997) 90% “A frank, fearless film from a director carving out her place in a strong British tradition. ” – Independent on Sunday Aug 6, 2024 Full Review One Night Stand (1997) 33% “Figgis seems unable to escape the magnetic field of Eszterhas's influence. ” – Independent on Sunday Aug 6, 2024 Full Review Alien Resurrection (1997) 55% “Joss Whedon's script is clunkily pedestrian, as if it was written in gravity many times greater than that of Earth. ” – Independent on Sunday Aug 6, 2024 Full Review The Traveler (1992) “It's a fine example of how truthful cinema can be when it rejects melodrama and empty gesture in order to concentrate on the bare essentials of character and plot. It's sweetly observed, morally coherent, utterly simple and fiercely economical. ” – Independent on Sunday Jun 21, 2023 Full Review To Have & to Hold (1996) “If it were not so pretentious, Hillcoat's film might have made effective horror schlock. In its current form, it's probably best left to disappear, glugging, into the morass. ” – Independent on Sunday Jun 21, 2023 Full Review Zero Effect (1998) 66% “It's Kasdan who should really take the credit: his script is witty, and his handling of detective conventions is easy and unmannered. Remember his name. ” – Independent on Sunday Jun 21, 2023 Full Review Armageddon (1998) 43% “The most dispiriting aspect of this film is the casual contempt it has for its audience. ” – Independent on Sunday Jun 21, 2023 Full Review Tomorrow Never Dies (1997) 57% “[Director Roger] Spottiswoode serves up a glutinous mix of pastiche and parody, without seeming to know whether he's recycling or debunking his cliches.” – Independent on Sunday Mar 28, 2019 Full Review I Know What You Did Last Summer (1997) 48% “There are several effective moments... And the epilogue delivers a shock that'll fill your turn-ups with popcorn.” – Independent on Sunday Mar 28, 2019 Full Review Persons Unknown (1996) 14% “The film takes a dive into absurdity.” – Independent on Sunday Mar 28, 2019 Full Review A Further Gesture (1997) 67% “It's a political thriller from which all the politics has been carefully spooned.” – Independent on Sunday Mar 28, 2019 Full Review Jump the Gun (1997) “There are plenty of witty sequences... But the film has a shaky grasp on the psychologies of its characters, and can't seem to justify their actions satisfactorily.” – Independent on Sunday Dec 17, 2018 Full Review Purple Noon (1960) 95% “Filmed in sumptuous colour, it's a deliciously amoral thriller with a devilishly attractive star.” – Independent on Sunday Dec 15, 2018 Full Review Romy and Michele's High School Reunion (1997) 75% “As she did in Mighty Aphrodite, Sorvino rises above knackered material that seems set on patronising her character.” – Independent on Sunday Dec 15, 2018 Full Review Albino Alligator (1996) 50% “Christian Forte's script starts a little shakily, but it finds its feet once it has stopped trying to be Dog Day Afternoon, heading squarely into David Mamet territory.” – Independent on Sunday Dec 15, 2018 Full Review Keys to Tulsa (1997) 10% “The plot is full of italicised twists and kooky set-pieces, but grossly over-plotted and overwritten.” – Independent on Sunday Dec 15, 2018 Full Review Event Horizon (1997) 35% “But, to its credit, Event Horizon never pretends to be anything other than a series of highly efficient rip-offs.” – Independent on Sunday Dec 15, 2018 Full Review Titanic (1997) 88% “The dialogue may be unspeakable, but the film remains unsinkable.” – Independent on Sunday Mar 2, 2018 Full Review
