[size=3][color=darkorange][font=Arial][i]Charley Varrick[/i] (Don Siegel, 1973)[/font][/color][/size].

[size=3][font=Times New Roman][color=darkorange]Fun Nixon-era robbers-and-cops flick with Walter Matthau as the unlikely leading man who is seemingly more successful than he had planned on being. [/color][/font][/size].

[size=3][color=darkorange][font=Arial][i]Plan 9 from Outer Space[/i] (Edward D. Wood, Jr., 1959)[/font][/color][/size].

[size=3][font=Times New Roman][color=darkorange]Not as entertaining as [i]Glen or Glenda[/i]; it?s a little too banal to be really classically bad.[/color][/font][/size].

[size=3][color=darkorange][font=Arial][i]Muppets From Space[/i] (Tim Hill, 1999)[/font][/color][/size].

[size=3][font=Times New Roman][color=darkorange]Sigh. I love the Muppets, but this is pretty drab and sadly uninventive.[/color][/font][/size].

[size=3][color=darkorange][font=Arial][i]Mystic[/i][i] River[/i] (Clint Eastwood, 2003)[/font][/color][/size].

[size=3][font=Times New Roman][color=darkorange]Implausible, irritatingly melodramatic and phony.[/color][/font][/size].
