Great Balls of Fire! (1989)

108 mins     Biography, Drama, Musical      

As entertainment I have always enjoyed the 1989 biopic "Great Balls of Fire!"; the music of Jerry Lee Lewis combined with full on performances from Dennis Quaid and Winona Ryder makes you smile. But as a biopic I don't rate i...

Mercury Rising (1998)

111 mins     Action , Crime, Drama

Notting Hill (1999)

124 mins     Comedy, Romance      

Whilst some people absolutely adore "Notting Hill" I don't, not that I think it's a bad movie but one which has a few nice scenes, a couple of clever story elements but other than that it is average. It just doesn't woo me as...
