2/5
     (2004)      "Serial thriller starts with a bang, ends with a whimper, and never really moves beyond following its forebears." [movie review]      Netflix   
  
3/5
     (2009)      "The old-school The Taking of Pelham One Two Three takes you by the throat; this new one, well-made as it is, just takes you for granted." [movie review]      Redbox   
  
5/5
     (1974)      "Little-known gem of a '70s New York crime thriller is near perfect to begin with, and even better on DVD." [movie review]      Netflix   
  
5/5
     (1999)      "Tense tale combines travel magazine gloss with Alfred Hitchcock's dark heart." [movie review]      Netflix   
  
5/5
     (1984)      Click here to see the review! [movie review]      Netflix   
  
5/5
     (1976)      "Director Martin Scorsese's nightmare vision of Manhattan is important, impulsive work." [movie review]      Netflix   
  
2/5
     (2004)      "Disney's latest attempt at TV-series-to-theaters is a kids' film designed to give adults migraines, despite animation innovations and unique design." [movie review]      Netflix   
  
4/5
     (2004)      "Puppet parody of pop culture and politics from the South Park boys is so wrong ... and so funny." [movie review]      Netflix   
  
3/5
     (2003)      "Bruce Willis military actioner has guts, brains and patience -- and while not a masterpiece, it's far better than you'd think." [movie review]      Netflix   
  
4/5
     (1988)      Click here to see the review! [movie review]      Netflix   
  
3/5
     (2004)      "Airport-purgatory story from Spielberg and Hanks is a minor work from two master craftsmen." [movie review]      Netflix   
  
4.5/5
     (1984)      "The film that put James Cameron on the map and made Arnold Schwarzenegger an international star, The Terminator is a high-potency distillation of a bunch of sci-fi concepts into one package." [movie review]      Netflix   
  
4/5
     (2003)      "Blatantly opportunistic sequel has plot holes, logic problems, minimal innovation ... and a fistful of block-rockin' action." [movie review]      Netflix   
  
2/5
     (2009)      ""Terminator Salvation" promised moviegoers a war between the human heart and the cold, cruel efficiency of machines. So why then is it so mechanical itself, so good at repetition, so preprogrammed and clunky?" [movie review]      MSN Movies   
  
4/5
     (2003)      "Iconic horror film gets a modernized remake that's as well done as it is blood-soaked." [movie review]      Netflix

2/5
     (2008)      "The Day The Earth Stood Still's original version aspired to blow our collective minds and inspire our hearts; this new remake settles for making our eyes pop out, with a slight hope our jaws will go slack from the spectacle." [movie review]      Redbox   
  
3.5/5
     (1988)      "An engaging and compelling minor sci-fi flick." [movie review]      Netflix

5/5

4.5/5
     (1999)      Click here to see the review! [movie review]      Netflix   
  
5/5
     (1975)      "Redford, Dunaway, Von Sydow, Cliff Robertson and John Houseman turn in superb work, and the film is as pure a thriller as one could hope for, with a gripping premise, hurtling plot and a marvelous air of menace." [movie review]      Netflix   
  
4.5/5
     (1999)      "Gulf War action-drama with heart, brains and guts falls just short of greatness." [movie review]      Netflix   
  
5/5
     (2005)      "With a brilliant script, sure direction and amazing performances, indie comedy Thumbsucker is one of the year's top 10." [movie review]      Netflix   
  
4/5
     (1965)      "It's remarkably good fun. It's retro enough to be amusing in the dull bits and timeless enough to be fresh and vital today." [movie review]      Netflix

     (2009)      "Kiyoshi Kurosawa's Tokyo Sonata, is an unexpected pleasure -- not only because it's a departure from the J-horror films that made his name, but because it's also a startlingly rich, funny and strong drama, without a hint of the supernatural or unearthly." [movie review]      Cinematical   
  
3/5
     (1995)      "David Spade and Chris Farley made a fine comedic team." [movie review]      Netflix   
  
4/5
     (1997)      "Pierce Brosnan's second outing as 007 is even more assured and charismatic than his impressive debut in GoldenEye." [movie review]      Netflix

0/4
     (2007)      "Transformers is supposedly about robots who turn into cars and back again; what it's really about is big Hollywood turning money into stupid and back again" [movie review]      Cinematical   
  
1/5
     (2009)      "Violent, crude, pointless sequel just isn't kids' stuff." [dvd review]      Common Sense Media
