The Lion King (1994) 93% “There are scenes here that are as vivid as anything ever seen in animation. ” – Austin American-Statesman Dec 19, 2024 Full Review Pocahontas (1995) 58% 2.5/4 “As pure entertainment, it works. Thought it won't be as memorable as The Lion King or Aladdin, it's still prototypical Disney fare.” – Austin American-Statesman Dec 17, 2024 Full Review Aladdin (1992) 96% 3.5/4 “The balance of songs are co-written by Menken and Tim Rice, whose lyrics lack the snap and wit of Ashman's. But it's hard to find much fault with a film that is as consistently entertaining as this.” – Austin American-Statesman Dec 16, 2024 Full Review Beauty and the Beast (1991) 95% 2.5/4 “Well worth seeing, but less than magical... The whole thing feels manufactured, lacking in the fluid spontaneity of The Little Mermaid; Beauty has the feel of a film in which everyone was under a great deal of pressure to create "magic."” – Austin American-Statesman Dec 16, 2024 Full Review The Prince and the Pauper (1990) 76% 2.5/4 “Mickey's still a hallowed character at Disney and the short is gorgeously drawn, full of great expressions and wondrous color.” – Austin American-Statesman Dec 14, 2024 Full Review The Rescuers Down Under (1990) 85% 2.5/4 “A solid new animated entry from the revitalized Walt Disney Pictures, which after years of surviving on past glories, has rallied in the past five years.” – Austin American-Statesman Dec 14, 2024 Full Review Bram Stoker's Dracula (1992) 69% 2/4 “For all its stunning images and sweeping colors, for all its brilliant costumes and grand sets, this new Dracula winds up being a lavish cinematic misfire.” – Austin American-Statesman Sep 26, 2024 Full Review Alien 3 (1992) 44% 2/4 “In this film, there's not enough complexity or intrigue for [Sigourney Weaver] to work with. Instead, we get the slick self-indulgence of director David Fincher, a man who seems to think he invented the cinematic uses of backlighting and dry ice.” – Austin American-Statesman Jul 31, 2024 Full Review Little Women (1994) 92% 4/4 “The new Little Women is a graceful portrayal of the spontaneous intimacy shared by four sisters and their mother. ” – Austin American-Statesman Apr 11, 2024 Full Review The Shawshank Redemption (1994) 89% 3/4 “Darabont's screenplay is too expertly massaged for its own good, but the performances, particularly Freeman's authoritative portrayal, redeem much of the formula.” – Austin American-Statesman Mar 4, 2024 Full Review Forrest Gump (1994) 75% 4/4 “What makes Forrest Gump a stunning triumph, a departure from the mediocre norm? A big reason is the way the film provides a fresh perspective on the familiar experience, through the eyes of its unforgettable protagonist.” – Austin American-Statesman Mar 1, 2024 Full Review Pulp Fiction (1994) 92% 4/4 “It's one of those rarefied cinematic achievements, along with Schindler's List and GoodFellas, that will show up on those inevitable best of the decade lists in a few years. But it's also more accessible and entertaining than either of those films.” – Austin American-Statesman Feb 29, 2024 Full Review Four Weddings and a Funeral (1994) 92% 3/4 “The film convincingly creates a group of people that we'd love spending time with, and Grant proves that he can carry a film with his bashful, unassuming handsomeness.” – Austin American-Statesman Feb 28, 2024 Full Review Quiz Show (1994) 97% 3.5/4 “You can buy or not buy Redford's larger argument, but his execution of the specifics in the Van Doren case is astute and, at times, dazzling.” – Austin American-Statesman Feb 12, 2024 Full Review The Last of the Mohicans (1992) 88% 3/4 “The crackling pace of The Last of the Mohicans proves Mann's ability as an action director, and underscores the fact that heroism translates from any period.” – Austin American-Statesman Dec 15, 2023 Full Review Home Alone (1990) 66% 2.5/5 “Home Alone is still worth seeing, for Hughes' inventive set-ups, his emotionally evocative conclusions and his frequently insightful looks at WASPish middle America. ” – Austin American-Statesman Nov 28, 2023 Full Review Goodfellas (1990) 94% 3/4 “While the men of GoodFellas have chosen their destiny, the slow descent of Karen into an emotionally battered, cocaine-addicted wife is the film's most absorbing subplot, as well as its most powerful performance.” – Austin American-Statesman Oct 18, 2023 Full Review Hard-Boiled (1992) 92% 3/4 “Hard-Boiled doesn't break any of the stylistic ground that The Killer did, but it shows Woo working ably with a formula that he is making his own.” – Austin American-Statesman Jul 27, 2023 Full Review Patriot Games (1992) 72% 2.5/4 “There's great potential in this part for Ford, and a strong foundation has been set for further adventures and subplots with his family. But subsequent updates of Clancy's Ryan saga are going to have to remain closer to the author's level of complexity.” – Austin American-Statesman Jun 6, 2023 Full Review Army of Darkness (1992) 68% 2/4 “One gets a sense of watching a talent show long on inventive costumes and short on talent. ” – Austin American-Statesman Mar 31, 2023 Full Review Boys on the Side (1995) 73% 2.5/5 “As a study of female compassion and camaraderie, the film is admirable and winning. ” – Austin American-Statesman Mar 14, 2023 Full Review Thelma & Louise (1991) 86% 3.5/4 “Possessed of the funniest screenplay and best ensemble acting of the year, it's the first certified, can't-miss film since The Silence of the Lambs.” – Austin American-Statesman Mar 1, 2023 Full Review Groundhog Day (1993) 94% 3/4 “To look back on Murray's career is to see the development of a distinct strain of American humor, which has often been misunderstood or mangled on film. In Groundhog Day, Murray and Ramis return to the source, and they get it right.” – Austin American-Statesman Dec 7, 2022 Full Review Dances With Wolves (1990) 87% 3.5/4 “Costner, always an underrated, charismatic actor, deserves his due: He set out to make a movie about an America long gone and American wounds too long forgotten. He has succeeded, grandly and gracefully.” – Austin American-Statesman Nov 8, 2022 Full Review Addams Family Values (1993) 75% 2/4 “No film should be dominated by its sets and costumes. When Ricci's Wednesday isn't hurling deadpan insults at her happy-go-lucky camp compatriots, Addams Family Values feels like a listless rehash of last year's modestly amusing original. ” – Austin American-Statesman Sep 21, 2022 Full Review
