A Christmas Carol (1984) 98% EDIT “The Shrewsbury locales help immensely, and director Clive Donner has thrown in some spectral fireworks to pep up the movie.” – Atlanta Journal-Constitution Nov 26, 2025 Full Review Stephen King's It (1990) 68% EDIT “While the miniseries delivers a few good chills, it suffers from stiff direction, stutter-step pacing and an oddly long and serious treatment for what is at heart a childish tale.” – San Francisco Examiner Oct 9, 2025 Full Review Caravan of Courage: An Ewok Adventure (1984) 39% EDIT “John Korty, who directed the movie for executive producer Lucas, maintains a breathless pace that's accentuated by Peter Bernstein's original score.” – Atlanta Journal-Constitution Apr 28, 2025 Full Review Ewoks: The Battle for Endor (1985) 61% EDIT “The magic is strangely missing this time.” – Atlanta Journal-Constitution Apr 26, 2025 Full Review Blonde (2001) 60% 1/4 EDIT “The resulting portrait is as plain and familiar as bark. Monroe had a horrendous childhood and spent her life in search of the father she never knew.” – San Francisco Chronicle Sep 19, 2022 Full Review The Rat Pack (1998) 57% EDIT “They researched the facts and worked on the characterizations, but the makers of "The Rat Pack" ultimately lose their way.” – San Francisco Chronicle Apr 29, 2020 Full Review Stephen King's 'The Langoliers' (1995) 48% EDIT “You spend hours in the company of cardboard characters, under the doughy direction of Tom Holland, waiting for something scary to happen, and at long last your payoff is a couple of minutes of cheesy special effects. Anyone's idea of a good time?” – San Francisco Chronicle Jan 15, 2020 Full Review Jane Austen's Emma (1996) 89% EDIT “"Emma" is a feast for the eyes and a balm for the heart.” – San Francisco Chronicle Nov 19, 2019 Full Review Uprising (2001) 100% 3/4 EDIT “A solid network effort about heroism in a most immoral world.” – San Francisco Chronicle Dec 6, 2001 Full Review
