Review of Mobsters (1991)

By Owen Gleiberman (3,271) for Entertainment Weekly (6,953) on 25 Jul 1991

There isn't a moment when you simply sit back and share in an actor's joy at revealing himself through his role…

Review of The Indian Runner (1991)

By Owen Gleiberman (3,271) for Entertainment Weekly (6,953) on 31 May 1991

Though the movie is sometimes too mannered (during one unaccountable stretch, Penn suddenly turns into Diane Arbus and peppers the screen with…

Review of After Dark, My Sweet (1990)

By Owen Gleiberman (3,271) for Entertainment Weekly (6,953) on 08 Mar 1991

After Dark, My Sweet is cool and compelling for about 45 minutes, but it has a clinical, hothouse garishness that grows oppressive…

Review of The Silence of the Lambs (1991)

By Owen Gleiberman (3,271) for Entertainment Weekly (6,953) on 13 Feb 1991

Demme has created a supremely sensuous and hypnotic thriller, one that's likely to become his first major hit…

Review of Edward Scissorhands (1990)

By Owen Gleiberman (3,271) for Entertainment Weekly (6,953) on 07 Dec 1990

The romanticism has a personal dimension -- for Edward is, of course, Burton's surreal portrait of himself as an artist: a wounded child converting…

Review of Misery (1990)

By Owen Gleiberman (3,271) for Entertainment Weekly (6,953) on 30 Nov 1990

Kathy Bates has a gift for playing cheerily hostile, paranoid misfits…

Review of Notorious (1946)

By Owen Gleiberman (3,271) for Entertainment Weekly (6,953) on 09 Aug 1990

Notorious makes the death of Biggie Smalls look like a tragic mistake, instead of the outgrowth of a culture devoted to selling the fantasy…

Review of The Freshman (1990)

By Owen Gleiberman (3,271) for Entertainment Weekly (6,953) on 19 Jul 1990

The Freshman has its moments — I enjoyed Paul Benedict’s performance as a pompously self-infatuated film professor — but mostly it plods…

Review of Ghost Dad (1990)

By Owen Gleiberman (3,271) for Entertainment Weekly (6,953) on 28 Jun 1990

Most of Ghost Dad is a dim-witted embarrassment…

Review of The Exorcist (1973)

By Owen Gleiberman (3,271) for Entertainment Weekly (6,953) on 04 Jan 1990

Here, in paranoid, bad acid trip form, is the real birth of girl power. [2000 re-release]…

Review of The Cook, the Thief, His Wife & Her Lover (1989)

By Owen Gleiberman (3,271) for Entertainment Weekly (6,953) on 10 Sep 1989

It's probably safe to say that the British director Peter Greenaway holds the ugliest view of mankind ever put forth by a maker of feature films…

Review of Das Boot (1981)

By Owen Gleiberman (3,271) for Entertainment Weekly (6,953) on 09 Sep 1989

Sweaty and claustrophobic, exciting and horrifying at the same time, it never lets us forget we're riding aboard a giant, primitive tin can,…

Review of Dracula (1931)

By Owen Gleiberman (3,271) for Entertainment Weekly (6,953) on 29 Jul 1989

There was so much potential, yet when it came down to it, Coppola made his Dracula too old to be menacing, gave Keanu Reeves a part and took…

Review of Dracula (1979)

By Owen Gleiberman (3,271) for Entertainment Weekly (6,953) on 08 Mar 1989

There was so much potential, yet when it came down to it, Coppola made his Dracula too old to be menacing, gave Keanu Reeves a part and took…

Review of Woodstock (1970)

By Owen Gleiberman (3,271) for Entertainment Weekly (6,953) on 21 Apr 1987

Describing Woodstock as a concert movie is a little like calling Notre Dame a house of worship…

Review of Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer (1986)

By Owen Gleiberman (3,271) for Entertainment Weekly (6,953) on 23 Sep 1986

Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer is undeniably disturbing, especially that video scene and when it shows us (however discreetly) a body being…

Review of Pink Flamingos (1976)

By Owen Gleiberman (3,271) for Entertainment Weekly (6,953) on 19 Nov 1983

In Pink Flamingos, Waters did something subversive and, in its gross way, quite spectacular: He created his own hell-bent, sick-joke Oz, with…

Review of Defiance (1980)

By Owen Gleiberman (3,271) for Entertainment Weekly (6,953) on 01 Jul 1982

Zwick offers excitingly staged moments, but once you get past the novelty of WWII Jews acting this heroically macho, Defiance bogs down in…

Review of E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial (1982)

By Owen Gleiberman (3,271) for Entertainment Weekly (6,953) on 01 Jul 1982

E.T. is ultimately a tale of love, and the film becomes a cathartic leap into pure feeling. [2002 re-release]…

Review of The Italian Job (1969)

By Owen Gleiberman (3,271) for Entertainment Weekly (6,953) on 17 Jul 1980

There's a fair amount of filler in The Italian Job, but it all boils down to the big heist, which has been staged as if it were Fort Knox being…
