Review of Striptease (1996)

By Gene Siskel (446) for Chicago Tribune (6,211) on 12 Mar 2013

Tired ethnic stereotyping abounds in the Striptease script, which is at a loss for any kind of drama between Moore's dances…

Review of Bull Durham (1988)

By Gene Siskel (446) for Chicago Tribune (6,211) on 11 Mar 2013

The acting in Bull Durham cannot be faulted and should be remembered at Oscar time…

Review of Forrest Gump (1994)

By Gene Siskel (446) for Chicago Tribune (6,211) on 20 Feb 2013

Credit for the success of the film has to start with director Robert Zemeckis, who has taken his Back to the Future and Who Framed Roger Rabbit…

Review of Platoon (1986)

By Gene Siskel (446) for Chicago Tribune (6,211) on 19 Feb 2013

Platoon is filled with one fine performance after another, and one can only wish that every person who saw the cartoonish war fantasy that…

Review of Chariots of Fire (1981)

By Gene Siskel (446) for Chicago Tribune (6,211) on 06 Feb 2013

The beautifully told but predictable story of two athletes who competed in the 100-meter dash for England in the 1924 Olympics...The film has…

Review of Rain Man (1988)

By Gene Siskel (446) for Chicago Tribune (6,211) on 06 Feb 2013

The strength of the film is really that of Cruise's performance, his finest since Risky Business…

Review of On Golden Pond (1981)

By Gene Siskel (446) for Chicago Tribune (6,211) on 06 Feb 2013

The biggest surprise with On Golden Pond is that the best performance in the film is not turned in by a Fonda…

Review of Top Gun (1986)

By Gene Siskel (446) for Chicago Tribune (6,211) on 06 Feb 2013

No doubt about it: Top Gun is going to be the hit that The Right Stuff should have been…

Review of Top Gun (1955)

By Gene Siskel (446) for Chicago Tribune (6,211) on 06 Feb 2013

The aerial sequences in Top Gun are as thrilling -- while remaining coherent -- as any ever put on film…

Review of Terms of Endearment (1983)

By Gene Siskel (446) for Chicago Tribune (6,211) on 18 Jan 2013

Terms of Endearment is about three relationships and students of screenwriting would do well to study the way in which these three stories…

Review of Chinatown (1974)

By Gene Siskel (446) for Chicago Tribune (6,211) on 18 Jan 2013

As much as I admire the work of both Polanski and Nicholson, I found Chinatown tedious from beginning to just before the end…

Review of The Godfather (1972)

By Gene Siskel (446) for Chicago Tribune (6,211) on 18 Jan 2013

To permit us a glimpse at The Mob, with all of its ethnic insularity, is like giving a chronic gambler a chance to wander above the false mirrors…

Review of M*A*S*H (1970)

By Gene Siskel (446) for Chicago Tribune (6,211) on 18 Jan 2013

For me, MAS*H contains as much depression as humor…

Review of Five Easy Pieces (1970)

By Gene Siskel (446) for Chicago Tribune (6,211) on 18 Jan 2013

What is more striking about the film is that its secondary characters are also real. The acting appears to be non-acting…

Review of Sleeper (2012)

By Gene Siskel (446) for Chicago Tribune (6,211) on 18 Jan 2013

These days, comedy beggars can't be choosers. Woody Allen is about all we've got. And Woody, please stay healthy…

Review of Sleeper (2005)

By Gene Siskel (446) for Chicago Tribune (6,211) on 18 Jan 2013

These days, comedy beggars can't be choosers. Woody Allen is about all we've got. And Woody, please stay healthy…

Review of The New Age (1994)

By Gene Siskel (446) for Chicago Tribune (6,211) on 16 Jan 2013

A sometimes smart social commentary on Los Angeles characters who seek spiritual salvation when they can't buy every object they want…

Review of Heartburn (1986)

By Gene Siskel (446) for Chicago Tribune (6,211) on 16 Jan 2013

Ephron delivered an incredibly flimsy script based on her novel about her former husband's repeated infidelity during their marriage and her…

Review of Flight of the Navigator (1986)

By Gene Siskel (446) for Chicago Tribune (6,211) on 16 Jan 2013

The film doesn't have the pace or the scale of Back to the Future, but it does have the same sweet moment when a child declares his love for…

Review of Terminal Velocity (1994)

By Gene Siskel (446) for Chicago Tribune (6,211) on 16 Jan 2013
