Jack’s Back *** (1988, James Spader, Cynthia Gibb, Jim Haynie) – Classic Movie Review 4896
Writer-director Rowdy Herrington’s rousing 1988 horror thriller reanimates the Victorian Whitechapel prostitute murders and moves the action to the present and the killing location to Los Angeles. There, an American killer is stalking through town, […]
Jack the Ripper *** (1959, Lee Patterson, Eddie Byrne, Betty McDowall, Ewen Solon, John le Mesurier, George Rose) – Classic Movie Review 4895
Director Robert S Baker’s gloomy 1959 British horror thriller was first released with an X certificate in Britain, though this modest but reasonably effective account of the notorious London East End murders gets most of […]
The Day of the Jackal ***** (1973, Edward Fox, Michel Lonsdale, Alan Badel, Eric Porter, Cyril Cusack, Delphine Seyrig, Donald Sinden, Tony Britton, Timothy West, Anton Rodgers) – Classic Movie Review 4894
Director Fred Zinnemann’s 1973 British film adaptation of Frederick Forsyth’s labyrinthine bestselling novel The Day of the Jackal about the plot to assassinate General Charles de Gaulle, the President of France, in 1963 is a […]
The Jackal *** (1997, Bruce Willis, Richard Gere, Sidney Poitier, Diane Venora, Mathilda May, J K Simmons) – Classic Movie Review 4893
Director Michael Caton-Jones’s capable, quite exciting 1997 action thriller is a more than satisfactory remake of The Day of the Jackal (1973), an admittedly much better film that didn’t need a remake. Richard Gere and Bruce […]
Rentadick * (1972, James Booth, Richard Briers, Julie Ege, Donald Sinden, Roy Kinnear, Michael Bentine, Spike Milligan, John Wells) – Classic Movie Review 4891
Director Jim Clark’s mostly wild and witless, wide-of-the-mark 1972 British crime comedy Rentadick stars an amiable group of experienced farce players and has much broad fun with British national stereotypes. It is certainly to be […]
Hard, Fast and Beautiful **½ (1951, Claire Trevor, Sally Forrest, Carleton G Young, Robert Clarke) – Classic Movie Review 4892
Director Ida Lupino’s intriguing and involving but hesitant 1951 drama is written by Martha Wilkerson. The movie, unusually for this time one with women as both the writer and director, as well as two female stars, is […]
The Perfect Score ** (2004, Scarlett Johansson, Erika Christensen, Chris Evans, Bryan Greenberg, Matthew Lillard) – Classic Movie Review 4890
Director Brian Robbins’s decent 2004 youth drama cannot earn a perfect score, but it does win marks for trying. The screenplay by Marc Hyman, Jon Zack and Mark Schwahn tells a familiar yet friendly yarn, […]
