Nine Men *** (1943, Jack Lambert, Gordon Jackson, Frederick Piper, Grant Sutherland, Bill Blewitt) – Classic Movie Review 4691
Writer-director Harry Watt’s 1943 realist-style World War Two war picture is minor but tense, interesting and impressive. It stars Jack Lambert as Sergeant Watson, Gordon Jackson as the Young ‘un, Frederick Piper as Banger Hill, […]

Jim Carrey’s pet detective Ace Ventura heads for the hills to find an abducted sacred white bat and keep the peace between African tribes, in writer-director Steve Oedekerk’s defiantly non-PC, non-funny 1995 sequel. Exuberant but repellent, this […]
The Big Red One **** (1980, Lee Marvin, Mark Hamill, Robert Carradine) – Classic Movie Review 3407
