Airport ‘80: The Concorde ** (1979, Alain Delon, Susan Blakely, Robert Wagner, Sylvia Kristel) – Classic Movie Review 5,428
Alain Delon strays way off his usual flight path as Captain Paul Metrand, pilot of the Concorde, in the tired and wooden 1979 film Airport ‘80: The Concorde, a funny farrago. ‘At twice the speed […]
East Side, West Side *** (1949, James Mason, Barbara Stanwyck, Van Heflin, Ava Gardner, Gale Sondergaard, Cyd Charisse, William Frawley, Nancy Davis) – Classic Movie Review 5172
MGM’s glossy, operatic 1949 soap-opera movie tale of lust and revenge East Side, West Side is totally saved by its marvellous star cast of James Mason, Barbara Stanwyck, Van Heflin and Ava Gardner. Despite its […]
Mum & Dad **½ (2008, Perry Benson, Dido Miles, Olga Fedori, Ainsley Howard) – Classic Movie Review 4624
Writer-director Steven Sheil’s 2008 low-budget British horror thriller film is well made and resourceful but deeply unpleasant. It starts with young Polish Heathrow Airport office cleaner Lena (Olga Fedori) accompanying an apparently friendly co-worker called […]

Up in the Air **** (2009, George Clooney, Vera Farmiga, Anna Kendrick, Jason Bateman, Amy Morton, Melanie Lynskey, J.K. Simmons, Sam Elliott, Danny McBride) – Classic Movie Review 4421
Golden Globe nominee (and New York Film Critics Best Actor) George Clooney gives his most relaxed, delightful, appealing and, yes, simply best performance so far as Ryan Bingham, a man who gets his kicks as […]
Red Eye **** (2005, Rachel McAdams, Cillian Murphy, Brian Cox) – Classic Movie Review 4,327
It’s fun to watch Rachel McAdams fight back against creepy charmer Jackson Rippner (Cillian Murphy) in Wes Craven’s sweaty-palm 2005 cat-and-mouse Hitchcock-style thriller film Red Eye. Her dad (Brian Cox) is being pinned down by […]
Airport **** (1970, Burt Lancaster, Dean Martin, George Kennedy, Helen Hayes, Jean Seberg, Jacqueline Bisset, Van Heflin, Maureen Stapleton, Barry Nelson) – Classic Movie Review 3432
Airport is rightly considered by many to be the grandfather of the disaster movie genre as the precursor to later epic Seventies disaster films. In a dramatic 12 hours, the twin hazards of a severe […]
