Mirrors **½ (2008, Kiefer Sutherland, Paula Patton, Amy Smart, Jason Flemyng, John Shrapnel, Cameron Boyce, Julian Glover) – Classic Movie Review 4625
Kiefer Sutherland does his usual briskly competent job in Mirrors (2008) as Ben Carson, a troubled ex-NYPD detective who takes a job as a night-watch security guard at the abandoned Mayflower Department Store devastated by […]
Black Sheep ½ (1996, Chris Farley, David Spade, Tim Matheson, Christine Ebersole, Gary Busey) – Classic Movie Review 4539
Chris Farley and David Spade re-team after Tommy Boy for director Penelope Spheeris’ s utterly moronic, shamefully slapstick 1996 American teen comedy that needs to be given the widest possible berth. Poor Tim Matheson co-stars as Al […]
Sorcerer ** (1977, Roy Scheider, Bruno Cremer, Francisco Rabal, Amidou, Ramon Bieri) – Classic Movie Review 4507
William Friedkin’s 1977 box-office flop American remake of the 1953 French classic thriller The Wages of Fear is an extravagant and sometimes impressive movie. Roy Scheider makes a useful hero, but Sorcerer is not a […]

The Last Airbender ** (2010, Noah Ringer, Nicola Peltz, Dev Patel, Cliff Curtis, Katharine Houghton, Jackson Rathbone) – Classic Movie Review 3849
So what kind of bender are you? A Waterbender, Firebender, Earthbender or maybe an Airbender? Or are you an Avatar, perhaps? The script of this kids’ story about the adventures of a young boy called […]
Embrace of the Serpent [El abrazo de la serpiente] **** (2015, Nilbio Torres, Jan Bijvoet, Antonio Bolivar, Brionne Davis) – Movie Review
This enthralling, spectacular looking historical adventure from Colombian director and writer Ciro Guerra (born 1981) is a fascinating contradiction. It is at once both chilly and emotional. It is poetical and political. It is both easily accessible […]
