Michael *** (1996, John Travolta, Andie MacDowell, William Hurt, Bob Hoskins, Jean Stapleton, Robert Pastorelli) – Classic Movie Review 3741
John Travolta lands a useful tailor-made role as the archangel Michael, with razor stubble, a hairy chest, a flabby gut and wings who drinks, smokes and dances. He comes back to Earth to live in […]
Mermaids *** (1990, Cher, Bob Hoskins, Michael Schoeffling, Winona Ryder, Christina Ricci) – Classic Movie Review 3338

Vanity Fair *** (2004, Reese Witherspoon, James Purefoy, Jonathan Rhys Meyers, Rhys Ifans, Romola Garai) – Classic Movie Review 1751
Likeable and engaging, director Mira Nair’s 2004 film is a very fair if slightly uninspired stab at filming a difficult novel, plodding relentlessly through the seemingly endless and complex detail and plotlines of William Makepeace […]
The Secret Agent ** (1996, Bob Hoskins, Patricia Arquette, Christian Bale) – Classic Movie Review 1550
Writer-director Christopher Hampton’s 1996 new version of the 1907 Joseph Conrad classic novel is only interesting as an honourable failure and to compare it with the book and Alfred Hitchcock’s vintage version of it under […]
Hook ** (1991, Robin Williams, Dustin Hoffman, Bob Hoskins, Julia Roberts) – Classic Movie Review 1421
Director Steven Spielberg’s 1991 family film is a long, lumbering and unwieldy, Disney-style version of J M Barrie’s Peter Pan fantasy tale. Unusually for a Spielberg movie, it lacks the magic spark it needs. Rather than making […]
