The Thin Red Line (1998) 5/10
Like the rest of Malick's work, it's beautifully filmed and well acted. Too long!
Book Club (2018) 6/10
The Carpetbaggers (1964) 7/10
Interview with the Vampire (1994) 6/10
Ambitious and gruesomely violent but not quite as biting (huh huh?) as I'm sure Neil Jordan wanted.
Within Our Gates (1920) 5/10
Historically important perhaps but narratively uninteresting.
The Specialist (1994) 3/10
Boring Stallone vehicle.
Bad Boys II (2003) 4/10
Cartoonishly ott 'good cop bad cop' epic with impressive action but it's too much and gets dull after awhile.
Pleasantville (1998) 7/10
Appropriately pleasant fantasy comedy with a clever visual aide to drive its message home.
The Italian Job (1969) 6/10
Amusing Brit crime movie with catchy songs and a funny performance by Michael Caine.
Paranoid (2000) 1/10
Horrible. And not because it's DTV, I've seen far superior examples that rise above their budget. This cannot.
A Perfect Murder (1998) 6/10
Twisty thriller with a great love-to-hate performance by Michael Douglas.
The Little Mermaid (2018) 2/10
Kitschy cashin on not just the Disney movie but seemingly every classic Disney movie from that period. The logic of the fantasy elements make no sense either. Shirley MacLaine, what are you doing here?
