This Boy’s Life **** (1993, Leonardo DiCaprio, Robert De Niro, Ellen Barkin, Chris Cooper, Tobey Maguire) – Classic Movie Review 1,434
Director Michael Caton-Jones’s riveting and disturbing 1993 American biographical coming-of-age movie This Boy’s Life stars the amazing actor that was the young Leonardo DiCaprio. He is extraordinarily compelling, quite mesmerising, as Tobias ‘Toby’ Wolff, an early […]
Superman Returns ** (2006, Brandon Routh, Kevin Spacey, Kate Bosworth, James Marsden, Frank Langella, Sam Huntington, Parker Posey, Eva Marie Saint) – Classic Movie Review 1433
Co-producer/director Bryan Singer dropped out of X-Men: The Last Stand (2006) for the chance to make the 2006 Superman reboot, but this proves a bad idea as the movie is a lacklustre disappointment. In the story, […]
Quills **** (2000, Geoffrey Rush, Kate Winslet, Joaquin Phoenix, Michael Caine) – Classic Movie Review 1432
Director Philip Kaufman’s real-life period drama stars Geoffrey Rush, the 1997 Best Actor Oscar-winner for Shine. He relishes a great, lip-smacking turn as the infamous Marquis de Sade, the French writer, jailed in a Parisian lunatic […]

Flight of the Phoenix ** (2004, Dennis Quaid, Miranda Otto, Giovanni Ribisi, Tyrese, Miranda Otto, Hugh Laurie) – Classic Movie Review 1087
Director John Moore’s 2004 movie is a reasonably entertaining disaster-survival movie remake of the classic 1965 adventure thriller The Flight of the Phoenix, in which an aircraft is downed in Mongolia’s Gobi Desert in a sandstorm. […]
House on Haunted Hill *** (1999, Geoffrey Rush, Famke Janssen, Taye Diggs, Ali Larter, Chris Kattan, Peter Gallagher, Bridgette Wilson) – Classic Movie Review 1089
As Steven H Price, Geoffrey Rush does a good, cheeky impersonation of Vincent Price in this welcome but iffy and not always sufficiently amusing 1999 reworking of the old 1958 William Castle horror movie. Price played […]
