Review of Jaws: The Revenge (1987)

By Josh Y (60) on 20 May 2009

The Ishtar of the ocean; even devoted Jaws fans (like me) can't excuse this groan-inducing franchise killer…

Review of Jaws 2 (1978)

By Josh Y (60) on 20 May 2009

The inevitable sequel emphasizes thrills over plot and characterization, but as Jaws rip-offs go, it's still the best…

Review of Jaws 3-D (1983)

By Josh Y (60) on 20 May 2009

The story by genre master Richard Matheson strives in vain to balance aquatic mayhem with more developed characters…

Review of A Fish Called Wanda (1988)

By Josh Y (60) on 20 May 2009

A gleefully devious classic, powered by four of the funniest people alive…

Review of Bubba Ho-tep (2002)

By Josh Y (60) on 10 May 2009

Bruce Campbell's awe-inspiring performance is the rock on which this genre-melding classic is so perfectly built…

Review of Superman: Doomsday (2007)

By Josh Y (60) on 10 May 2009

Fast-paced, well-acted and surprisingly brutal. Amazingly, the movie is eclipsed by the behind-the-scenes story of the famed comic book plot…

Review of Book of Shadows: Blair Witch 2 (2000)

By Josh Y (60) on 10 May 2009

I remember they had planned to released a few more of these...and then book of shadows came out…

Review of Silverado (1985)

By Josh Y (60) on 10 May 2009

This acerbic, post-modern western launched a thousand (or so) careers, and has only begun to receive the praise it always deserved…

Review of The Rocketeer (1991)

By Josh Y (60) on 10 May 2009

An old-fashioned classic with great performances and charm to spare…

Review of Freddy's Dead: The Final Nightmare (1991)

Review of The Mighty (1998)

By Josh Y (60) on 08 May 2009

An earnestly inspiring tale of unexpected friendship and hard-earned young wisdom…

Review of Batman: Mask of the Phantasm (1993)

By Josh Y (60) on 08 May 2009

A solid, under-appreciated addition to the Batman saga; makes a fine counterpart to the excellent work by Nolan & Co…

Review of Batman Beyond: Return of the Joker (2000)

By Josh Y (60) on 08 May 2009

Seek out the Uncut Original version for sleek, futuristic adventure with deeply disturbing undertones…

Review of Lost in La Mancha (2002)

By Josh Y (60) on 08 May 2009

As a filmmaker, Terry Gilliam is a rogue genius. As a person, he appears to be either cursed, crazy or both…

Review of Waitress (2007)

By Josh Y (60) on 06 May 2009

I LOVE Keri Russell, but this movie was not very good. The acting was poor and I just expected way too much from it…

Review of Judge Dredd (1995)

By Josh Y (60) on 03 May 2009

Decent movie, not as good as Street Fighter with JCVD…

Review of Towelhead (2008)

By Josh Y (60) on 23 Sep 2008

A really excellent film. Very funny at times but also extremely moving. Doesn't exploit the subject matter…

Review of Millennium Actress (2002)

By Josh Y (60) on 08 Jun 2008

Another anime that caused me to weep at its end. Anima as a medium can really capture any genre with heightened clarity…

Review of Gozu (2003)

By Josh Y (60) on 11 Jun 2007

Worth watching, if you like odd films. Compelling, for some reason. Bit heavy on the breastmilk for my liking though…
