Review of Flags of Our Fathers (2006)

By James M (2,946) on 29 Apr 2010

An interesting look at history, but altogether dull…

Review of Busman's Honeymoon (1940)

By James M (2,946) on 29 Apr 2010

One of my least favourite Gene Wilder films. The sight of Dom DeLuise in drag makes me feel sick…

Review of Ghost Ship (1992)

By James M (2,946) on 29 Apr 2010

A haunted house movie, except it's on a boat. It's okay, but nothing special. I only remember it for the opening slice-and-dice sequence…

Here's a scary thought…

Review of The Secret Garden (1993)

A decent children's fairytale…

Review of Old School (2003)

By James M (2,946) on 29 Apr 2010

I thought it was very over-rated. It had a few amusing scenes, but nothing that made me piss myself with laughter…

Review of Wild Wild West (1999)

By James M (2,946) on 29 Apr 2010

An embarrassing and expensive mess which only works as an ego-project for Will Smith (he's actually the only person who comes out of this relatively…

Review of Bell, Book and Candle (1958)

By James M (2,946) on 29 Apr 2010

A magical old-fashioned fantasy in Hollywood's best style at the time. Good performances…

Review of Candyman (1992)

By James M (2,946) on 29 Apr 2010

A creepy and inventive monster movie, with Todd making an intense and creepy bogeyman…

Review of Beethoven's 2nd (1993)

By James M (2,946) on 29 Apr 2010

An okay sequel for young kids but it's hardly the dog's bollocks…

Review of National Lampoon's European Vacation (1985)

By James M (2,946) on 29 Apr 2010

I like this in equal measure to the first Griswold vacation, despite the shameless (and quite xenophobic) stereotypes of Europeans…

Review of The Manchurian Candidate (1962)

By James M (2,946) on 29 Apr 2010

A fantastic conspiracy thriller with great performances, especially from Angela Lansbury with her most chilling role to date…

Review of House on Haunted Hill (1959)

By James M (2,946) on 29 Apr 2010

Ah, the house of horrors ride in carnivals and amusement parks. Sit in the cart, lean back, and the ride commences…

Review of My Fellow Americans (1996)

By James M (2,946) on 29 Apr 2010

A rather forgettable movie which features old guys arguing... a lot…

Review of Gilda (1946)

By James M (2,946) on 29 Apr 2010

I have to admit that I only watched this because of the reference to it in The Shawshank Redemption, but still enjoyed it immensely…

Review of House on Haunted Hill (1999)

By James M (2,946) on 29 Apr 2010

Geoffrey Rush does a great Vincent Price impression, but this is a pointless and quite silly remake…

Review of The Quick and the Dead (1995)

By James M (2,946) on 29 Apr 2010

A gunslinger movie with a difference... The protagonist is female. It's a good Western, but nowhere near up there with the best…

Review of Three Fugitives (1957)

By James M (2,946) on 29 Apr 2010

I've not seen the original French movie (Les Fugitifs) that this is based on and can't understand the mauling the critics gave it…

Review of Swimming with Sharks (1994)

By James M (2,946) on 29 Apr 2010

A good satire/black comedy in which Kevin Spacey hurls some classic insults. Would have received a better star rating had the ending been better…
