Rowan Atkinson plays dithering special agent Johnny English in this incredibly popular, idiotic James Bond spy spoof that has plenty of amateurish enthusiasm but little in the way of inspiration or big laughs. Based on […]

The Patriot **** (2000, Mel Gibson, Heath Ledger, Jason Isaacs, Joely Richardson) – Classic Movie Review 1139
In director Roland Emmerich’s grand, glossy, epic-scale 2000 American War of Independence adventure drama, Mel Gibson plays Benjamin Martin, a peace-loving American reluctantly swept into the American Revolutionary War when his family is threatened. It’s shamefully unhistorical, […]
