The Wedding Banquet (1993) 92% “Writer-director Ang Lee scarcely sounds a false note.” – Financial Times Apr 15, 2025 Full Review Brannigan (1975) 48% “Neither the script nor the direction succeeds in lending much sense of the proceedings.” – Financial Times Apr 12, 2025 Full Review Supervixens (1975) 49% “The result is very funny, exuberantly vulgar, and highly recommended.” – Financial Times Apr 11, 2025 Full Review Pocahontas (1995) 58% “The landscapes make up for much. All those cataracts and sunsets: all those forests painted like living, breathing Japanese water colors; all those river-viewing crags that characters go to stand on whenever the screenplay runs out of dialogue.” – Financial Times Dec 17, 2024 Full Review Jaws 2 (1978) 56% “In Jaws 2 the shark sits up and begs to have its unreality noticed. With its lifeless eyes and autopilot movements, it looks as if it would be more at home patrolling your bath-tub. ” – Financial Times Aug 14, 2024 Full Review Rosa Luxemburg (1986) 80% “Von Trotta's drearily respectful bio-pic gives us Rosa the lover, Rosa the revolutionary, Rosa the mother, but above all Rosa the bore.” – Financial Times Jul 24, 2024 Full Review Highlander (1986) 69% “Close your brain to the illogicalities of the time-chopping structure and there is much to marvel at. ” – Financial Times Jul 24, 2024 Full Review Aliens (1986) 94% “Cameron's pasty visuals do not match those of Ridley Scott's original Alien for lovingly textured High Gothic. But in the flood of action you hardly notice, and in Sigourney Weaver Hollywood has found an action-woman as tough as S. Stallone.” – Financial Times Jul 24, 2024 Full Review Rainbow (1996) 13% “Archly scripted, lumpily directed whimsy.” – Financial Times Jul 16, 2024 Full Review Denise Calls Up (1995) 71% “[A] funny, low-key character octet.” – Financial Times Jul 16, 2024 Full Review Twister (1996) 67% “Director Jan "Speed" De Bont made his debut with a film in which a bus had more character than the humans. But at least the humans were not vapid enough to be distracting. Here the characterisation is worse than perfunctory, it is patronising.” – Financial Times Jul 16, 2024 Full Review The Bingo Long Traveling All-Stars and Motor Kings (1976) 87% “Bingo long has a clutch of lively performances (especially Billy Dee Williams and James Earl Jones) and charm in abundance.” – Financial Times Apr 11, 2024 Full Review Dog Day Afternoon (1975) 96% “Quite the best cops-and-robbers film to have come out of America this year.” – Financial Times Apr 7, 2024 Full Review Seven (1995) 84% “[Screenwriter Andrew Kevin Walker's] two detective heroes are so much more richly conceived than the usual veteran/rookie cutouts that Morgan Freeman and Pitt feed on the roles like tigers.” – Financial Times Mar 29, 2024 Full Review Four Weddings and a Funeral (1994) 92% “The script by Blackadder’s Richard Curtis and direction by Mike Newell give this comical romantic froth such an eager whisk that it stands up and assaults the taste buds.” – Financial Times Feb 29, 2024 Full Review Pulp Fiction (1994) 92% “Should you see Pulp Fiction? Yes, You should. It is 150 minutes of talent in search of a signpost.” – Financial Times Feb 28, 2024 Full Review Natural Born Killers (1994) 51% “Oliver Stone's Natural Born Killers is a passionately mad, frequently bad, passably interesting, probably unmissable movie.” – Financial Times Feb 13, 2024 Full Review The River Wild (1994) 63% “This is the movies, and director Curtis Hanson throws so much water at us that we are too enjoyably discomposed to think anyway.” – Financial Times Feb 12, 2024 Full Review Quiz Show (1994) 97% “It is well acted, suavely paced, wittily scripted. But you start to throw questions at it soon afterwards.” – Financial Times Feb 12, 2024 Full Review Grease (1978) 66% “Grease is a pile-up of 1950s clichés and stereotypes, but it knows it is noisy and derivative and instead of tactfully holding itself back, it goes enthusiastically over the top. ” – Financial Times Feb 7, 2024 Full Review Sabrina (1995) 61% “The whole fairy-tale, under Sydney Pollack's direction, has lost its acidity here and ended up like a stick of rock: long, sweet and muscle-aching to consume.” – Financial Times Dec 20, 2023 Full Review Waiting to Exhale (1995) 56% “Glutinous but pseudo-feminist.” – Financial Times Dec 20, 2023 Full Review The Flower of My Secret (1995) 86% “Not since Fassbinder has a director so mastered the trick of using "corny" dialogue at once to heighten and to ironise everyday tragedy.” – Financial Times Dec 20, 2023 Full Review Heat (1995) 83% “Michael Mann's Heat raises an old question about Hollywood aesthetics. Does banality improve with grandiloquence? Or do fancy sounds and gestures make the trite triter?” – Financial Times Dec 20, 2023 Full Review The Last of the Mohicans (1992) 88% “The higher it climbs, gesturally and geographically, the grander the film becomes. It is clean out of oxygen, but after the early rightmindedness we cheer the new lightheadedness. ” – Financial Times Dec 14, 2023 Full Review
