Pocahontas (1995) 58% 3/4 “The gamble works beautifully, thanks to more of the gorgeous animation we've come to expect from Disney, another delightful Alan Menken score and one of the most spirited heroines ever created in pen and ink.” – Los Angeles Daily News Dec 17, 2024 Full Review The Shawshank Redemption (1994) 89% “It's Robbins and Freeman who carry the film, working around the most predictable moments with simple understatement.” – Los Angeles Daily News Mar 4, 2024 Full Review When a Man Loves a Woman (1994) 69% 2.5/4 “A family's struggle with alcoholism is not a pretty sight in When a Man Loves a Woman, nor should it be. But it's not a very moving experience either.” – Los Angeles Daily News Sep 1, 2023 Full Review Meatballs (1979) 73% “If one or two fall flat, so what. The next probably will hit your funnybone.” – Associated Press Sep 20, 2019 Full Review Fame (1980) 81% “Numerous performance scenes are expertly woven into Christopher Gore's screenplay following the audition-to-graduation fortunes of a handful of students, and the result is a joyful celebration of youth, hope and talent.” – Associated Press Jul 17, 2019 Full Review Trading Places (1983) 89% “Landis' direction is deft, but the sparkling performances are the real draw not only by Murphy and Aykroyd but also by Don Ameche and Ralph Bellamy as the meddling oldsters, Denholm Elliott as the gentlemanly servant and Jamie Lee Curtis.” – Associated Press Oct 23, 2018 Full Review Pink Floyd - The Wall (1982) 73% “It's a pretty grim portrait, but even worse it is often repetitive and boring. There are probably enough powerful segments for half a dozen or so outstanding rock videos but not a full-length feature.” – Associated Press Oct 23, 2018 Full Review The Man Who Loved Women (1983) 25% “The warmth that might have made this film work never materializes and slickness is no substitute.” – Associated Press Oct 23, 2018 Full Review Starstruck (1982) 83% “Starstruck, the latest effort by Australian director Gillian Armstrong... is a new wave rock musical-fairy tale aimed at the teen audience but likely to elicit a chuckle or two from whatever members of the older crowd it manages to attract.” – Associated Press Oct 23, 2018 Full Review Cat People (1982) 65% “Cat People, director Paul Schrader's remake of a 1942 B-movie, combines explicit sex, graphic violence, special effects and the supernatural and somehow falls flat.” – Associated Press Oct 23, 2018 Full Review Puberty Blues (1981) “Puberty Blues stands out... on several counts. For one thing, it focuses on girls. For another, its handling of sexual initiation is realistic in welcome contrast to the raunchy comedy-glamour-fantasy treatment sex is given in other summer offerings.” – Associated Press Oct 23, 2018 Full Review Give My Regards to Broad Street (1984) 25% “Give My Regards To Broad Street... has two main things going for it: The ever-charming McCartney presence and McCartney s music, old and new But even together, they are not enough to carry a full length feature.” – Associated Press Oct 23, 2018 Full Review Some Kind of Hero (1982) 50% “It may not sound like much of a howler, but with Pryor's talent and Michael Pressman's able directing, there are plenty of laughs and some touching moments as well --most of them in the first half.” – Associated Press Oct 23, 2018 Full Review This Is Spinal Tap (1984) 96% “Reiner, with McKean, Guest and Harry Shearer, have done a great job in creating and portraying characters that are dimwitted, cliched and yet oddly endearing.” – Associated Press Oct 23, 2018 Full Review Mommie Dearest (1981) 50% “By all accounts, Miss Crawford had serious failings as a mother, but the film pounds so unrelentingly on her raging cruelty to her children -- and her equally offensive public sweetness -- that she emerges as a laughable caricature.” – Associated Press Jul 6, 2010 Full Review Boys on the Side (1995) 73% “Parker in this pivotal role is simply riveting; she’s both deeply touching and quite amusing as she gradually sheds her inhibitions. Goldberg is equally affecting as a woman learning to respect and care for someone very different from herself.” – Los Angeles Daily News May 8, 2007 Full Review
