Review of Swimming with Sharks (1994)

By Alice S (528) on 19 Mar 2009

Review of No Reservations (2007)

By Alice S (528) on 01 Mar 2009

Review of In the Bedroom (2001)

By Alice S (528) on 24 Feb 2009

Review of Moonstruck (1987)

Review of The Spanish Prisoner (1997)

By Alice S (528) on 31 Jan 2009

Exciting in parts, but completely filled with McGuffins. How does Joe not notice the book was switched? Why does he touch the murder weapon…

Review of Bah, Humduck!: A Looney Tunes Christmas (2006)

By Alice S (528) on 23 Dec 2008

Review of Keeping the Faith (2000)
