Misery (1990) 87% 2.5/4 EDIT “It's Bates' show, and she is truly compelling as Annie.” – New York Daily News Jan 22, 2026 Full Review Bite the Bullet (1975) 69% 3.5/4 EDIT “The film loses some of its tremendous energy and vitality towards the end, but its remains an enormously satisfying piece of entertainment.” – New York Daily News Jan 15, 2026 Full Review Stand by Me (1986) 88% 3/4 EDIT “The delight of this movie is that the boys develop into distinctive flesh-and-blood characters.” – New York Daily News Jan 13, 2026 Full Review Hook (1991) 37% 2.5/4 EDIT “Hollywood's perpetual kid seems to have run out of fairy dust when it came to filming Hook, his overly elaborate sequel to Peter Pan, for the epic fantasy is about as buoyant as a permanently grounded blimp.” – New York Daily News Dec 19, 2025 Full Review Big Top Pee-wee (1988) 31% 2.5/4 EDIT “It's just plain mushy.” – New York Daily News Dec 13, 2025 Full Review The Abyss (1989) 76% 2/4 EDIT “The problem with this film is that Cameron keeps sabotaging his characters, undermining their credibility by using silly action-movie dialogue.” – New York Daily News Dec 9, 2025 Full Review The Running Man (1987) 59% 1/4 EDIT “A deadly futuristic thriller that looks like a cheap blend of "Rollerball," "Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome" and "Blade Runner."” – New York Daily News Nov 6, 2025 Full Review Predator (1987) 64% EDIT “...[Arnold Schwarzenegger] has not only shed some of his greatest assets -namely his vein-popping muscles- but he, perhaps because the jungle heat sapped energy, shows so little animal magnetism that this creature feature winds up just a ridiculous bore.” – New York Daily News Oct 30, 2025 Full Review Desert Hearts (1985) 77% 2/4 EDIT “Contains a wonderfully crusty performance by Audra Lindley as Frances... She seems completely at home on the range, with her sun-scorched face and cigarette-tainted voice. ” – New York Daily News Oct 12, 2025 Full Review My Beautiful Laundrette (1985) 95% 3/4 EDIT “This cynical, wryly funny tale of capitalist greed tries to tackle too many social issues at once. But, even as it garbled worst, it has an invigorating honesty and a cheerful impudence that is difficult to resist. ” – New York Daily News Oct 10, 2025 Full Review Tron (1982) 60% 2.5/4 EDIT “Both Bridges and Boxleitner have pleasing personalities, but even they are eventually overwhelmed by the computer graphics.” – New York Daily News Oct 3, 2025 Full Review To Sleep With Anger (1990) 93% 3/4 EDIT “An unusually compelling family drama. ” – New York Daily News Sep 23, 2025 Full Review This Is Spinal Tap (1984) 98% 3/4 EDIT “Reiner, backed by a terrific team of young satirists, has created a delightfully funny movie about the wacky, high-pressured world of rock music.” – New York Daily News Sep 9, 2025 Full Review The Naked Gun: From the Files of Police Squad! (1988) 88% 3/4 EDIT “Fans of Zucker's gleefully insane kamikaze brand of comedy will find it hard to resist.” – New York Daily News Jul 24, 2025 Full Review DuckTales, the Movie: Treasure of the Lost Lamp (1990) 66% 2.5/4 EDIT “It concentrates on old-fashioned slap-stick humor instead of trying to match the wit and imagination of some of Disney's more memorable cartoons.” – New York Daily News Jul 17, 2025 Full Review Superman III (1983) 31% 2.5/4 EDIT “Superman III may still please those avid fans who are just glad to see Superman in action again, even if he does seem to have forgotten to eat his Wheaties or whatever it takes to give him his usual zest for flying. ” – New York Daily News Jul 8, 2025 Full Review Superman IV: The Quest for Peace (1987) 16% 2/4 EDIT “The obviously chintzy B-movie special effects certainly detract from this plodding, but surprisingly short sequel. ” – New York Daily News Jul 2, 2025 Full Review Superman II (1980) 88% 3.5/4 EDIT “Superman II...is a strictly high-level entertainment, a movie that should come to the rescure of everyone who longs for two house of pure fun and escape.” – New York Daily News Jun 28, 2025 Full Review Supergirl (1984) 19% 3/4 EDIT “It's lively escapist fun.” – New York Daily News Jun 27, 2025 Full Review Return to Oz (1985) 59% 2.5/4 EDIT “"Return to Oz" is so lacking in wit and warmth it should leave the audience feeling as emotionally detached as the stone residents of the Emerald City.” – New York Daily News Jun 18, 2025 Full Review Rollerball (1975) 56% 2.5/4 EDIT “It is just not possible to relate to this movie on any human level because the people in it are as cold and emotionless as robots.” – New York Daily News Jun 5, 2025 Full Review The Karate Kid Part II (1986) 49% 1.5/4 EDIT “The best way to avoid this incredibly silly movie is to be absent when it opens at your local theater.” – New York Daily News May 27, 2025 Full Review The Karate Kid (1984) 81% 2.5/4 EDIT “The scenes between Macchio and Morita become increasingly moving as Miyagi emerges as a much-needed father-figure in Daniel's life. ” – New York Daily News May 27, 2025 Full Review Funny Lady (1975) 55% 4/4 EDIT “Streisand and Caan are magic together.” – New York Daily News Apr 24, 2025 Full Review Sheila Levine Is Dead and Living in New York (1975) 34% 2/4 EDIT “Only Elaine May could have carried this movie off.” – New York Daily News Apr 9, 2025 Full Review
