North (1994) 12% EDIT “The problem is that North never achieves the scathing satire to which it aspires.” – Sight & Sound Jan 26, 2026 Full Review The Abyss (1989) 76% EDIT “Watching the undoubtedly atmospheric and, at moments, quite exhilarating film and some again, it strikes me that it could have done with a judicious snip.” – Guardian Dec 10, 2025 Full Review Naked Gun 33 1/3: The Final Insult (1994) 66% EDIT “Ultimately, with the arrival of young contenders Wayne and Garth on the TV-turned-to-film-satire scene, Drebin might as well stick to his retirement plans.” – Sight & Sound Jul 17, 2025 Full Review Apollo 13 (1995) 94% EDIT “The film fails to convey a real sense of terror. Indeed, it has about as much atmosphere as the moon itself. ” – Sight & Sound Jun 25, 2025 Full Review The Shawshank Redemption (1994) 89% EDIT “The towering Tim Robbins has a solidity and gentle interiority that occasionally reminds one here of Burt Lancaster. Of equal excellence is Morgan Freeman as Red, who holds the film together with his poetic, often quipping narration.” – Sight & Sound Mar 4, 2024 Full Review I Like It Like That (1994) 89% EDIT “Bristling with warmth and intelligence, it's an engaging film that will leave you on a high.” – Guardian Mar 2, 2022 Full Review Go Fish (1994) 76% EDIT “The flexible digressive style enables Troche and Turner to dive a little deeper under Go Fish's seemingly light, shimmery surface and ponder on some weightier questions about lesbian identity -- but without letting the movie get too hung up on them.” – Sight & Sound Aug 25, 2021 Full Review Attack of the 50 Ft. Woman (1993) 20% EDIT “...so large that it verges on parody, though there is sympathy enough for the subject to prevent it from becoming ridiculous.” – Sight & Sound Feb 6, 2020 Full Review The Piano (1993) 90% EDIT “This is cinema that fills every sense.” – Sight & Sound Jun 20, 2018 Full Review The Silence of the Lambs (1991) 95% EDIT “Are these the laws of desire in a decaying culture built on the husks of atrophied ideals, where longing is a destructive touch and relationships are made out of perverse torment?” – Sight & Sound Nov 6, 2017 Full Review Howards End (1992) 94% EDIT “A more troubling and rigorous inquest into a bygone era than usual.” – Sight & Sound Aug 1, 2017 Full Review Daughters of the Dust (1991) 94% EDIT “This is balletic, operatic cinema, and a celebration of cinema itself.” – Sight & Sound Jun 5, 2017 Full Review The Sorcerers (1967) 100% EDIT “As the Monserrats play audience to their victims' living scenarios, which the couple write to their own perverse specifications, this psychedelic horror film deals with the apparatus of cinema, and it still puts the mind in a spin.” – Time Out Feb 9, 2006 Full Review Suzhou River (2000) 91% EDIT “A seductive and atmospheric conundrum that works pleasingly as an exercise in storytelling.” – Sight & Sound Apr 13, 2001 Full Review
