Review of Two of a Kind (1983)

By David Sterritt (1,643) for Christian Science Monitor (3,788) on 07 Nov 1999

By David Sterritt (1,643) for Christian Science Monitor (3,788) on 17 Oct 1999

Review of Very Bad Things (1998)

By David Sterritt (1,643) for Christian Science Monitor (3,788) on 10 Jul 1999

Review of Contact (1997)

By David Sterritt (1,643) for Christian Science Monitor (3,788) on 22 May 1999

Its discussions don't go very deep, and moviegoers with strong religious values may wonder why it comes down for humanism over spirituality…

By David Sterritt (1,643) for Christian Science Monitor (3,788) on 01 Apr 1999

Plenty of surprises, almost all of them nasty…

Review of Air Force One (1997)

By David Sterritt (1,643) for Christian Science Monitor (3,788) on 24 Feb 1999

Review of Hard Rain (1998)

Review of Valmont (1989)

By David Sterritt (1,643) for Christian Science Monitor (3,788) on 30 Dec 1998

Livelier, more absorbing, and generally better acted than Dangerous Liaisons, which arrived a year ago…

The filmmaking technique of writer-director Kevin Smith has matured since the raunchy Clerks, his popular debut movie; but although his dialogue…

Review of Happiness (1998)

By David Sterritt (1,643) for Christian Science Monitor (3,788) on 30 Nov 1998

Review of Love! Valour! Compassion! (1997)

By David Sterritt (1,643) for Christian Science Monitor (3,788) on 26 Nov 1998

There are endearing and powerful moments which thankfully overshadow the occasional clichéd passages…

Review of The Baby-Sitters Club (1995)

By David Sterritt (1,643) for Christian Science Monitor (3,788) on 20 Nov 1998

Review of Tin Cup (1996)

By David Sterritt (1,643) for Christian Science Monitor (3,788) on 24 Sep 1998

Review of Morons from Outer Space (1985)

By David Sterritt (1,643) for Christian Science Monitor (3,788) on 16 Sep 1998

A sporadically funny spoof of aliens-from-outer-space films that begins to run out of fresh ideas after the first 30 minutes…

Review of Still of the Night (1982)

By David Sterritt (1,643) for Christian Science Monitor (3,788) on 16 Sep 1998

By David Sterritt (1,643) for Christian Science Monitor (3,788) on 04 Sep 1998
