The Trench *** (1999, Paul Nicholls, Daniel Craig, Danny Dyer, James D’Arcy) – Classic Movie Review 1406
Screenwriter/director William Boyd adapts his own novel for this 1999 First World War wartime film drama in which a platoon of young British soldiers bicker in a tiny 8ft-wide trench in the last 48 hours […]
Windtalkers *** (2002, Nicolas Cage, Christian Slater, Adam Beach) – Classic Film Review 1,218
Nicolas Cage reunites with his 1997 Face/Off director, John Woo, in 2002 for the impressive, scarily in-your-face, big-budget war movie Windtalkers. US sergeants Nicolas Cage and Christian Slater are assigned to protect Navajo marines (Adam […]
U-571 ***½ (2000, Matthew McConaughey, Harvey Keitel, Bill Paxton) – Classic Movie Review 1196
Co-writer/director Jonathan Mostow’s 2000 release is a controversial, but exciting, supposedly real-life World War Two submarine action adventure set in 1942, in which a German submarine is boarded by disguised United States Navy submariners seeking to capture […]
Small Soldiers *** (1998, Kirsten Dunst, Gregory Smith, David Cross, Jay Mohr, Phil Hartman, Kevin Dunn, Dick Miller, Ann Magnuson, Dennis Leary) – Classic Movie Review 1175

Writer-director Randall Wallace’s 2002 release stars Mel Gibson, who arms up for this raw, gung-ho Vietnam War film, in which he stars as real-life Lt Col Hal Moore, who leads an American force into ‘Nam […]
The Great Dictator ***** (1940, Charles Chaplin, Paulette Goddard, Jack Oakie) – Classic Movie Review 1044
Producer-writer-director Charles Chaplin’s 1940 brave, risky and pioneering satirical comedy classic focuses on a timid Jewish barber who is mistaken for the dictator of Tomania (‘our Fooey’) and then takes over from him. A stirring, controversial condemnation of […]
Alexander ** (2004, Colin Farrell, Anthony Hopkins, Rosario Dawson, Angelina Jolie, Jared Leto, Val Kilmer) – Bad Movie 3
Fortune normally favours the bold, maybe, but not here. Co-writer/director Oliver Stone’s 2004 classical adventure epic is certainly brave and ambitious but it is also turgid and laughable. An absurdly miscast Colin Farrell is too […]
