Review of Blue Steel (1990)

By Bill Cosford (281) for Miami Herald (3,319) on 18 Jan 2000

From the caressing close-ups of a .38 revolver over the opening credits to the climactic image of a spent weapon being dramatically dropped…

Review of Suspect (1987)

By Bill Cosford (281) for Miami Herald (3,319) on 27 Dec 1999

Suspect is a well-made thriller, but it was spoiled for me by an extraordinary closing scene where Cher, as the defense attorney, solves the…

Review of Biloxi Blues (1988)

By Bill Cosford (281) for Miami Herald (3,319) on 01 Dec 1999

Biloxi Blues is an agreeable but hardly inspired film version of Neil Simon's second installment of his autobiographical trilogy, which bowed…

Review of Supergirl (1984)

By Bill Cosford (281) for Miami Herald (3,319) on 01 Sep 1999

The gift of Christopher Reeve, in his best scenes and when the filmmakers allow it, is to play Superman without laughing, to take him seriously…

Review of No Small Affair (1984)

By Bill Cosford (281) for Miami Herald (3,319) on 18 Aug 1999

As directed by Jerry Schatzberg from a screenplay by Charles Bolt and Terence Mulcahy, the film stays snappy much of the way…

Review of Weird Science (1985)

By Bill Cosford (281) for Miami Herald (3,319) on 03 Jun 1999

Distinctly predictable offering from the ever-overworking John Hughes, who has taken a step back from his previous work…

Review of Black Rain (1989)

By Bill Cosford (281) for Miami Herald (3,319) on 10 May 1999

No matter how well dressed, the movie can’t escape the gravitational pull of formula…

Review of Sweet Dreams (1985)

By Bill Cosford (281) for Miami Herald (3,319) on 30 Apr 1999

Sweet Dreams begins with more energy than it is able to sustain…

Review of Bugsy (1991)

By Bill Cosford (281) for Miami Herald (3,319) on 28 Apr 1999

One wishes Beatty would stay out of the epic business, but in that poor man's defense, he's become too large, too much of an icon on the screen…

Review of National Lampoon's European Vacation (1985)

By Bill Cosford (281) for Miami Herald (3,319) on 17 Apr 1999

Heckerling directs this mess with no sense of pace and less sense of where to put the camera…

Review of Dick Tracy (1990)

By Bill Cosford (281) for Miami Herald (3,319) on 06 Apr 1999

Dick Tracy has pop-art elements, imaginatively conceived montages, and a riff on crime-as-business that’s as pointed as the Godfather movies,…

Review of Pretty in Pink (1986)

By Bill Cosford (281) for Miami Herald (3,319) on 06 Mar 1999

Slack and unconvincing throughout with the exception of Ringwald, who remains natural and appealing as the thin world of the film collapses…

Review of Lone Wolf McQuade (1983)

By Bill Cosford (281) for Miami Herald (3,319) on 19 Jan 1999

As senseless violence goes, this is very senseless and very violent…

Review of Predator 2 (1990)

By Bill Cosford (281) for Miami Herald (3,319) on 30 Nov 1998

Virtually everything about the film is derivative--even the design for the eerie setting for the climactic struggle recalls the interiors of…

Review of Mermaids (1990)

By Bill Cosford (281) for Miami Herald (3,319) on 30 Oct 1998

Mermaids is not exactly good, but it is not boring. Winona Ryder, in another of her alienated outsider roles, generates real charisma…

Review of Glengarry Glen Ross (1992)

By Bill Cosford (281) for Miami Herald (3,319) on 24 Sep 1998

Hammers away at the plot so relentlessly that you can feel the nails entering the back of your skull…

Review of Crimes of Passion (1984)

By Bill Cosford (281) for Miami Herald (3,319) on 06 Sep 1998

The film is deeply flawed, and sodden with sexual moralism…

Review of The Bounty (1984)

By Bill Cosford (281) for Miami Herald (3,319) on 28 Aug 1998

The Bounty has an incredible cast and a fabulously well-put-together production, and pays impressive attention to historical accuracy – more…

Review of The Hills Have Eyes Part 2 (1985)

By Bill Cosford (281) for Miami Herald (3,319) on 17 Jul 1998

It's hard to believe that the same man who wrote and directed one of the best horror films of the 1970s, The Hills Have Eyes, could have pulled…

Review of Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country (1991)

By Bill Cosford (281) for Miami Herald (3,319) on 11 Jun 1998

One of the dullest films of the sextet thus far…
