Bloodhounds of Broadway (1989)

93 mins     Comedy, Drama, Romance      

I kind of remember when "Bloodhounds of Broadway" came out but I seem to remember it not being much of a hit and having finally got round to watching it I can understand why. The trouble with it is that there is too much goin...

Robin Hood: Prince Of Thieves (1991)

143 mins     Action , Adventure , Drama      

I remember when Kevin Costner's "Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves" first came out, I really loved it even though I quickly grew to hate the theme music. B but having rewatched it many years later I realized that firstly it is no...

The Three Musketeers (1993)

105 mins     Action , Adventure , Comedy      

Disney's 1993 version of Dumas's "The Three Musketeers" is not a movie for those who are interested in the story but it is for those who want a dumbed down rollercoaster ride of swashbuckling action and some pretty looking st...

The Crow (1994)

102 mins     Action , Crime, Fantasy, Thriller      

It's an unfortunate fact but when a star suddenly dies either whilst making a movie or before it's due to be released it inadvertently helps promote the movie, raising its profile. It happened a few years ago when Heath Ledge...

Alien: Resurrection (1997)

109 mins     Action , Sci-Fi, Thriller      

I didn't think much of "Alien 3" when compared to it's predecessor's and welcomed the fact that Ripley died and in doing so appeared to bring closure to the series. Unfortunately in Hollywood death is never final and so 5 yea...

117 mins     Action , Comedy, Crime      

Having already done the cop thing in the "Beverly Hills Cop" movies 1997 saw Eddie Murphy return for another cop movie but one which was not all about Murphy's wise cracking persona. That movie was "Metro" a solid cop movie f...

Along Came a Spider (2001)

104 mins     Crime, Mystery, Thriller      

It would be easy to bemoan the fact that "Along Came a Spider" is a thriller which contains many plot holes and one too many twists, but the thing is that it works. What I mean by that is that if "Along Came a Spider" hooks y...

The Count of Monte Cristo (2002)

131 mins     Action , Adventure , Drama      

We all change. There was a time when all I cared about when watching a movie was how much bang I got for my buck and cared not for depth or over complex plots or characters but now it is almost the opposite as whilst I still ...

The Assassination of Richard Nixon (2004)

95 mins     Biography, Drama      

I've always felt that Sean Penn was the actor to take over from Robert De Niro, not only does Penn often act in a similar style but he also takes on complex characters which would make many an actor cower away. Which brings m...

Seraphim Falls (2006)

115 mins     Action , Drama, Thriller, Western      

Whilst I could see Liam Neeson in a western the thought of Pierce Brosnan playing some sort of cowboy just didn't work. Ironically Pierce Brosnan's performance is one of the positives of "Seraphim Falls", a modern version of ...

What Just Happened (2008)

104 mins     Comedy, Drama      

On first look "What Just Happened" looks like it is another movie about behind the scenes of Hollywood with a story about a producer dealing with temperamental actors and directors whilst also dealing with personal problems. ...
