Review of Clean and Sober (1988)

By Riley H (411) on 25 Jul 2009

So he's pretty much totally unlikable, which is awesome. The recovery is a wee bit too quick, but otherwise this is pretty good…

Review of Joe Versus the Volcano (1990)

By Riley H (411) on 22 Jul 2009

Good film. It sustains the whimsy well until it gets kind of overbearing in the last 20 minutes and I don't care for the ending…

Review of The Jazz Singer (1927)

By Riley H (411) on 09 Jul 2009

This isn't quite the landmark it's made out to be. It isn't a complete talkie, as only the musical numbers have synched sound…

Review of Night Moves (1975)

By Riley H (411) on 07 Jun 2009

*** (out of four) Well done thriller is solid, though it does feel a bit like a pilot for a 1970's private eye drama…

Review of Who Killed the Electric Car? (2006)

By Riley H (411) on 06 Jun 2009

Very alarming. It is not the most unbiased documentary, but it makes its point. I still can't believe they actually destroyed them…

Review of Killer Klowns from Outer Space (1988)

By Riley H (411) on 06 Jun 2009

Could have been so good, especially with Vernon and Dano in it. But they just didn't even bother with motivations…

Review of Monkey Warfare (2006)

By Riley H (411) on 29 May 2009

A little show-offy but mostly a pretty great little movie. Don't be scared by the running time…

Review of Lightning Over Water (1980)

By Riley H (411) on 15 May 2009

It's difficult, it's not very coherent, it's got a lot of problems (don't really get the editing)…

Review of The Premature Burial (1962)

By Riley H (411) on 08 May 2009

Generally really liked it. I thought Milland was a little to campy, though. Especially with his endless references to being buried alive…

Review of Fast, Cheap & Out of Control (1997)

By Riley H (411) on 06 May 2009

This documentary interweaves interviews and footage of four eccentric people -- a topiary gardener, a lion tamer, a mole rat specialist, and…

Review of Bangkok Dangerous (2008)

By Riley H (411) on 30 Apr 2009

Wow, this wasn't horrible. Cage isn't annoying. I can't believe it. I don't even know what to say…

Review of Matador (1986)

By Riley H (411) on 30 Apr 2009

So this is different. It's funny, which helps. It also helps that this movie was made in a not so prudish country…

Influential, if not particularly plausible or entertaining…

Review of Martin (1978)

By Riley H (411) on 24 Apr 2009

Interesting attempt at a revisionist vampire movie. Good to sometimes great music, great sound design…

Review of Godzilla, King of the Monsters! (1956)

By Riley H (411) on 19 Apr 2009

Didn't understand why Raymond Burr was in the nasty 1985 remake until I saw the original US release abortion…

Review of Moving Violations (1985)

Fun to watch with Dave but I probably wouldn't have seen it otherwise…

Review of Lost Horizon (1937)

By Riley H (411) on 28 Feb 2009

Boring. The casting is ridiculous. Just because they spent tons of money on it doesn't make it good…
