Star Wars: Episode VI - Return of the Jedi (1983)
83%
4/4
“If the characters have grown up, the final chapter in producer George Lucas' epic saga still speaks to the child within us with its exciting action sequences, its universe of imaginative creatures and its resolute faith in the power of good.” –

Tarzan (1999)
90%
“Disney's penchant for recycling character types gives Tarzan a bit of a "been there, done that" feeling. But it is outweighed by the film's visual delights.” –

B-
“The Little Mermaid is not without its charms. But it doesn't live up to its billing as a return to the classic Disney fairy tales.” –

Planet of the Apes (2001)
43%
“Alas, no Burton movie contains less of his personality or style than Planet of the Apes, a high-concept action film in which the real artist is the six-time Oscar winner Rick Baker.” –

Almost Famous (2000)
91%
“For all of its dramatic moments, Almost Famous generally maintains a tone of amiable good humor. As Elton John might have sung, it remembers when rock was fun.” –

Atanarjuat the Fast Runner (2001)

“What Atanarjuat accomplishes is to tell an old story in a new setting, a place so far off any path we would recognize that we could scarcely recognize it. ” –

Magnolia (1999)

“As for Anderson, the miracle is not just in managing to keep everything straight in this big, sprawling movie but also in his willingness to go new places, to keep us guessing and to flat-out astonish us.” –

The Matrix (1999)
83%
2.5/4
“Visually, at least, The Matrix more than lives up to its billing. Writer-directors [the Wachowskis] seem to literally bring the screen to life with action scenes that define the word kinetic.” –

Batman: Mask of the Phantasm (1993)
83%
3/4
“Based on Fox Broadcasting's daily 온라인카지노추천 series, the movie shares many of its virtues, including superb animation, a stylish "Dark Deco" look and an understanding of the psychological underpinnings that drive the man in the bat suit.” –

An American Tail (1986)
77%
“Once [Fievel] begins his quest, the movie loses its charming vision of an immigrant family's struggle and turns into a more conventional adventure caper.” –

Army of Darkness (1992)
68%
2.5/4
“Raimi loads the film with gross humor and also packs so much action into the film that it seems longer than its 77-minute running time. In this case, that's a compliment. ” –

“The Coens have created a character study masquerading as a mystery. But the whodunit proves as substantial as a case of the munchies. ” –

Beloved (1998)

“Thandie Newton demonstrates her extraordinary presence once more in the demanding, unorthodox role of Beloved... As Denver, Elise succeeds in the tougher task of standing up to this scene-stealing character.” –

Schindler's List (1993)

4/4
“How does one comprehend the magnitude of the Holocaust? Remarkably, Steven Spielberg's Schindler's List defines the horror of Hitler's "final solution" on vividly human terms without diminishing its scope or impact.” –

3/4
“Like the first movie, it wraps everything up in spectacular action scenes powered by special effects that are all the more impressive because director Bryan Singer does not let them overwhelm the other elements of the movie.” –

Chicago (2002)

4/4
“While it has the look and feel of a Broadway show, the screen can't contain it. The movie seems to burst right out of the frame with energy and verve and life. Cinematically and theatrically, it's the best of both worlds.” –
