Review of Desperately Seeking Susan (1985)

By Ripö M (410) on 09 May 2008

Quirky variation of Trading Places overshadowed by Her Madgesty's proper screen debut. Support cast and Arquette elevate this trifle…

Review of Bull Durham (1988)

By Ripö M (410) on 08 May 2008

Review of Witness (1985)

By Ripö M (410) on 05 May 2008

Literate, empathetic(!), thrilling. Quietly casts a spell without your ever sensing it. Ford's John Book is one of his most humane creations…

Review of All the President's Men (1976)

By Ripö M (410) on 04 May 2008

For a film from the 70s, it still kinda holds up…

Review of Kinsey (2004)

By Ripö M (410) on 30 Apr 2008

Biopic examines controversial researcher's life, humanizes demonized man. Perfect trifecta of Neeson, Linney & Sarsgaard…

Review of Under the Cherry Moon (1986)

By Ripö M (410) on 26 Apr 2008

So achingly beautiful and poignant there is nothing better to describe it than to recommend it to each and everyone of you. PSYCH…

Review of State and Main (2000)

By Ripö M (410) on 23 Apr 2008

Well-acted but somewhat slight work by master playwright Mamet on show biz. Excellent cast make the best of it…

Review of Solaris (2002)

By Ripö M (410) on 21 Apr 2008

Catatonic photocopy of esoteric sci-fi classic watered down into a conventional romance. A shame, given the talent assembled…

Review of Monsoon Wedding (2001)

By Ripö M (410) on 20 Apr 2008

Ravishing verite-like story with distinct you-are-there milieu. Almost dreamlike, makes you believe that cinematic fantasy can really come true…

Review of The Producers (1968)

By Ripö M (410) on 19 Apr 2008

Unapologetically inspired lunacy, simultaneously side-splittingly funny and absurd, so very wrong and so very right…

Review of Under the Tuscan Sun (2003)

By Ripö M (410) on 12 Apr 2008

Pastoral, romantic but wisely bittersweet comedy on the path less travelled by. Bonus points for casting pre-Grey's Oh and Walsh as lesbian lovers…

Review of Glitter (2001)

By Ripö M (410) on 11 Apr 2008

As cinematic art: 1/2 star. As drinking game: 5 stars. Her cat is the best animal actor, like, EVER. Makes a great Secret Santa gag gift…

Review of To Die For (1995)

By Ripö M (410) on 10 Apr 2008

Wicked, sly take on celebrity and ambition starkly reflects show-biz parents and foreshadows their precocious, fame-hungry offspring. Kidman rocks…

Review of The Killing Fields (1984)

By Ripö M (410) on 05 Apr 2008

The soundtrack for this movie was far too heavy-handed, clunky, and obvious…

Review of Baby Boom (1987)

By Ripö M (410) on 05 Apr 2008

Clearly of its time but still begs the question: can women (men, too?) really have it all? All debate falls aside due only to Diane Keaton's charms…

Babs... a classic... no need to say more…
