The Man with One Red Shoe (1985)

92 mins Comedy, Thriller

I've said it before but Tom Hanks' movie career during the 80s was a rollercoaster ride of good and bad or at least forgettable. "The Man with One Red Shoe" resides in the forgettable with its farce about an innocent man bein...

Overboard (1987)

Richie Rich (1994)

95 mins Comedy, Family

I will go out on a limb here and say that "Richie Rich" isn't a bad movie but one which is desperately dull. In fact you could say "Richie Rich" is simply desperate because just 4 years after Macaulay Culkin had won audiences...

The Christmas Pageant (2011)
