Blood Relatives (1977) “Although it fails as a whodunnit because the conclusion is obvious from early on, it is a very sharply directed film with some admirable performances, not least from Sutherland and from David Hemmings.” – Birmingham Mail Sep 22, 2024 Full Review Star Trek: The Motion Picture (1979) 52% “In fact, so much more was apparently spent on the effects than on the script that the chief mystery is why there is so little action and so much talk.” – Birmingham Mail Sep 22, 2024 Full Review Manhattan (1979) 93% “Its basic weakness is that... it limits itself to ground already familiar from Annie Hall and Interiors. It is witty, of course, but by the end I found I was tiring of the characters.” – Birmingham Mail Sep 22, 2024 Full Review Apocalypse Now (1979) 90% “The sense of impending doom is not lightly shaken off. It is a pity though that the film eventually founders on another puzzling performance by Marlon Brando. ” – Birmingham Mail Sep 22, 2024 Full Review Close Encounters of the Third Kind (1977) 90% “It would be easy to attack this on the grounds of sentimentality, but this is a film which demands an emotional response. ” – Birmingham Post Apr 3, 2024 Full Review Dune (1984) 36% “David Lynch... again indulges his fondness for a freewheeling montage of images. It can look very nice, but altogether it doesn't look like 45 million dollars worth of anybody's money. ” – Birmingham Mail Feb 13, 2024 Full Review Alien (1979) 93% “In short, it is a film which performs the basic task of nauseating and frightening the audience out of its wits with great style and efficiency. ” – Birmingham Post Nov 16, 2023 Full Review Silkwood (1983) 77% “Silkwood falls into that uneasy modern category of a film with a strong factual base which nevertheless shades off into fiction around its edges, either to avoid lawsuits or to make a more acceptable commercial package. ” – Birmingham Mail May 12, 2023 Full Review Yentl (1983) 69% “[The songs] are by no means as obtrusive as they look when shown out of context on television, but they do tend to sound strikingly alike... Still, from a visual point of view the film is magnificently upholstered. ” – Birmingham Mail May 12, 2023 Full Review Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom (1984) 77% “Steven Spielberg says that for him films are like boxes of toys. What Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom demonstrates is that Spielberg has a bigger and better box of toys than any other kid on the block.” – Birmingham Mail Apr 17, 2023 Full Review The Color Purple (1985) 73% “Generally the film is a big disappointment, although it is true that it has a central performance of enormous character and appeal by Whoopi Goldberg.” – Birmingham Mail Jul 12, 2022 Full Review Aliens (1986) 94% “Although it seems altogether a cruder film than Alien, the special effects are up to scratch and it is difficult to fault the way Cameron exacts the last degree of tension in the cliffhanging climax. If you like this sort of thing, you'll like this.” – Birmingham Mail Feb 7, 2004 Full Review
