Review of Scrooged (1988)

By Cathy Burke (83) for United Press International (113) on 08 Dec 2017

Review of Alien Nation (1988)

By Cathy Burke (83) for United Press International (113) on 08 Dec 2017

Review of Coming to America (1988)

By Cathy Burke (83) for United Press International (113) on 08 Dec 2017

Coming to America, starring Eddie Murphy and directed by John Landis, takes a lame idea and some very talented comedic actors and manages to…

Review of Dead Ringers (1988)

By Cathy Burke (83) for United Press International (113) on 08 Dec 2017

Dead Ringers may be a beautifully structured and well-acted movie, but it certainly's isn't an easy film to watch…

Review of Raising Arizona (1987)

By Cathy Burke (83) for United Press International (113) on 08 Nov 2016

Review of Tin Men (1987)

By Cathy Burke (83) for United Press International (113) on 08 Nov 2016

Levinson has an unerring eye for the trappings of the period, and like Diner, the supporting characters add a realism that is often forgotten…

Everything about School Daze is frantic, and the energy is addictive…

Review of Ironweed (1987)

By Cathy Burke (83) for United Press International (113) on 08 Nov 2016

Review of Throw Momma from the Train (1987)

By Cathy Burke (83) for United Press International (113) on 08 Nov 2016

Review of Blind Date (1987)

By Cathy Burke (83) for United Press International (113) on 08 Nov 2016
