Monty Python and the Holy Grail (1975)
91%
“As a rather tame romp around the Round Table we can only give it the ho-hum award and suggest the people concerned pull up their chain-mail socks if there is to be a sequel.” –

Nashville (1975)
89%
“Putting 24 major characters into a 2-hour 40-minute film has to be a cinematic achievement of sorts. Robert Altman's newest film also scores another less dubious achievement. He makes it work. ” –

“Alec Guinness... is delightfully respectable as the mister-mind who is ever so pleased with himself within his general air of suburban meekness.” –

Dune (1984)
36%
“Dune's special effects are undeniably four-star material. But, irreverent as it may seem, with such a proliferation of exotic creatures milling about, it struck me that the film was like nothing so much as a sapped up episode of Doctor who.” –

Gentlemen Prefer Blondes (1953)
88%
“It splashes spectacular technicolor around with enough daring luridness to show that it doesn't mean to be intellectually priggish, and enough old-master taste to show that it does not mean to be vulgar. ” –

Sayonara (1957)
82%
“No humane man would quarrel with the general argument of the film, but it is emotionalised and over-simplified into a straight contest of True Love versus Prejudice, with no recognition of any more complex issues.” –

Addams Family Values (1993)
75%
3/4
“Julia, as the irrepressibly romantic Gomez, is downright adorable... However, Christina Ricci as the deadpan Wednesday and Back To The Future star Lloyd as breathlessly gullible Uncle Fester have fine-tuned their performances to an achingly funny degree.” –

A Man for All Seasons (1966)
89%
“Scofield gives what must be one of the great screen performances of our time. The script would be hard to fault, the direction and camera work are flawless and the supporting cast are all uniformly excellent. ” –
