Mary Reilly * (1996, Julia Roberts, John Malkovich, George Cole, Michael Gambon, Kathy Staff, Michael Sheen, Glenn Close, Ciarân Hinds) – Classic Movie Review 2787
Much was expected from this strongly cast film of Valerie Martin’s popular novel, but director Stephen Frears’s 1996 British drama is one of his failures. The idea of seeing the old Victorian horror story through […]

A Chump at Oxford **** (1940, Stan Laurel, Oliver Hardy, James Finlayson, Peter Cushing) – Classic Movie Review 965
Director Alfred J Goulding’s 1940 movie A Chump at Oxford is a thoroughly likeable, appealing and enjoyable vintage comedy from movie greats Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy, even if it is arguably maybe a mere fraction less […]
Batman and Robin *** (1997, George Clooney, Chris O’Donnell, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Uma Thurman, Alicia Silverstone, Michael Gough, Pat Hingle) – Classic Movie Review 524
Director Joel Schumacher’s critically bashed 1997 effort is his sequel to his 1995 Batman Forever. Unfortunately, Batman and Robin is everybody’s least favourite Batman movie, but it does at least look a treat and have an […]
