Review of The Rock (1996)

By Jonathan Rosenbaum (1,657) for Chicago Reader (7,190) on 18 Sep 1998

High-octane nonsense but gives both the actors and the audience all that's needed to make this diverting--car chases, wisecracks, narrow escapes,…

Review of Dumb and Dumber (1994)

By Jonathan Rosenbaum (1,657) for Chicago Reader (7,190) on 15 Aug 1998

A few of the bad-taste gags are funny, and Carrey's grimaces have a certain inspired delirium, but this is a long way from the social comedy…

Review of Casper (1995)

By Jonathan Rosenbaum (1,657) for Chicago Reader (7,190) on 15 Aug 1998

It's not clear why Steven Spielberg's Amblin decided to make a live-action entertainment starring the least interesting and most saccharine…

Review of Vanishing Point (1971)

By Jonathan Rosenbaum (1,657) for Chicago Reader (7,190) on 05 Aug 1998

While Richard Sarafian's direction of this action thriller and drive-in favorite isn't especially distinguished, the script by Cuban author…

Review of Class of 1999 (1990)

By Jonathan Rosenbaum (1,657) for Chicago Reader (7,190) on 15 Jul 1998

The liberal pieties underlying the script become so simplistic and predominant that they ultimately deprive the characters and the story of…

Review of Thelma & Louise (1991)

By Jonathan Rosenbaum (1,657) for Chicago Reader (7,190) on 28 May 1998

Classic genre movies may be a scarce commodity, but this gutsy crime thriller and female buddy movie qualifies in spades…

Review of My Fellow Americans (1996)

By Jonathan Rosenbaum (1,657) for Chicago Reader (7,190) on 16 May 1998

An appalling piece of junk that tries to redo The Odd Couple and Grumpy Old Men in presidential terms…

Review of Pump Up the Volume (1990)

By Jonathan Rosenbaum (1,657) for Chicago Reader (7,190) on 19 Apr 1998

A clarion call for freedom and collective action both hopeful and energizing, it qualifies as a generational statement as Rebel Without a Cause…

Review of Bottle Rocket (1996)

By Jonathan Rosenbaum (1,657) for Chicago Reader (7,190) on 24 Mar 1998

Fresh, character driven, often funny, and unfashionably upbeat (as well as offbeat)…

Review of Bram Stoker's Dracula (1992)

By Jonathan Rosenbaum (1,657) for Chicago Reader (7,190) on 20 Mar 1998

Francis Coppola's ambitious 1992 version brings back the novel's multiple narrators, leading to a somewhat dispersed and overcrowded story…

Review of The Krays (1990)

By Jonathan Rosenbaum (1,657) for Chicago Reader (7,190) on 19 Mar 1998

All in all, an entertaining (if ideologically incoherent) response to the valorization of greed in our midst, with lots of Rambo-esque violence…

Review of Pocahontas (1995)

By Jonathan Rosenbaum (1,657) for Chicago Reader (7,190) on 13 Jul 1997

Contradictions confound certain aspects of this project--such as the language spoken by Pocahontas (which, in the Hollywood tradition, oscillates…

Review of The Magnificent Ambersons (1942)

By Jonathan Rosenbaum (1,657) for Chicago Reader (7,190) on 10 Jul 1997

For the most part, this is a very close adaptation of Booth Tarkington's underrated novel about the relentless decline of a wealthy midwestern…

Review of Labyrinth (1986)

By Jonathan Rosenbaum (1,657) for Chicago Reader (7,190) on 15 Jun 1997

George Lucas produced and Jim Henson (of Muppets fame) directed this heftily budgeted 1986 fantasy, which seems to be a conscious attempt to…

Review of The Haunting (1963)

By Jonathan Rosenbaum (1,657) for Chicago Reader (7,190) on 24 May 1997

Robert Wise's 1963 black-and-white 'Scope translation of Shirley Jackson's The Haunting of Hill House was pretty effective when it came out,…

Review of My Blue Heaven (1990)

By Jonathan Rosenbaum (1,657) for Chicago Reader (7,190) on 22 May 1997

Script and direction are both fairly slapdash, but the actors and the overall sweetness keep this chugging along on some level…

Review of 2001: A Space Odyssey (1968)

By Jonathan Rosenbaum (1,657) for Chicago Reader (7,190) on 14 Apr 1997

Its special effects are used so seamlessly as part of an overall artistic strategy that, as critic Annette Michelson has pointed out, they…

Review of Blow-Up (1966)

By Jonathan Rosenbaum (1,657) for Chicago Reader (7,190) on 07 Apr 1997

This is so ravishing to look at (the colors all seem newly minted) and pleasurable to follow (the enigmas are usually more teasing than worrying)…

Review of The Commitments (1991)

By Jonathan Rosenbaum (1,657) for Chicago Reader (7,190) on 08 Mar 1997

Classic genre movies may be a scarce commodity, but this gutsy crime thriller and female buddy movie qualifies in spades…

Review of The Remains of the Day (1993)

By Jonathan Rosenbaum (1,657) for Chicago Reader (7,190) on 13 Jan 1997

The actors keep this interesting, but as a story it drifts and rambles…
