Review of Corrina, Corrina (1994) by Marshmallowbomber G — 05 May 2006

[size=2]I'm beginning the rather lengthy task of entering into the database every film I have seen, at least those I have a decent memory of. Some may have the briefest of reviews while many will just have a number. Those films that I consider personal favorites and/or those that have some historical signficance I will add later when I have time for more lengthy reviews.

[b]Corrina, Corrina[/b].

Director: Jessie Nelson.

Stars: Whoopi Goldberg, Ray Liotta, Joan Cusack, Don Ameche, Tina Majoriino.

Synopsis: Sentimental drama about loss and race relations. Story becomes too sappy.

[b]City of Joy[/b].

Director: Roland Joffe.

Stars: Patrick Swayze, Pauline Collins, Om Puri.

Synopsis: An American surgeon tries to find himself in the povery striken city of Calcutta, India. Should have been a much better film.

[b]The Cutting Edge[/b].

Director: Paul Michael Glaser.

Stars: D.B. Sweeney and Moira Kelly.

Synopsis: Spoiled Ice Princess and washed up hockey player team up in an attempt to make the Olympics. This romantic comedy is about as cliched and cheesy as it can get.

[b]Class Action[/b].

Director: Michael Apted.

Stars: Gene Hackman, Mary Elizabeth Mastrantonio, Laurence Fishburne, Colin Friels.

Synopsis: Watchable courtroom drama has a liberal lawyer (Hackman) who's firm has filed a lawsuit against a major auto manufacturer his conservative daughter represents.
