Heaven Can Wait ***½ (1978, Warren Beatty, Dyan Cannon, Charles Grodin, James Mason, Julie Christie, Jack Warden, Vincent Gardenia, Buck Henry) – Classic Movie Review 3451
Co-writer/ co-producer/ co-director/ star Warren Beatty’s 1978 comedy is no relation to the 1943 classic Ernst Lubitsch movie of the same name, Heaven Can Wait, but instead a highly amusing and popular remake of Here Comes Mr […]
The Program *** (2015, Ben Foster, Jesse Plemons, Lee Pace, Chris O’Dowd, Dustin Hoffman) – Movie Review
Ben Foster is good as cyclist Lance Armstrong, who never stops cycling – or lying, apparently. ‘I have never tested positive’, he says positively as he categorically denies drug-taking over and over again. Foster is […]
McFarland, USA ***½ (2015, Kevin Costner, Maria Bello, Carlos Pratts, Ramiro Rodriguez, Morgan Saylor, Elsie Fisher) – Movie Review
Kevin Costner’s film has legs: this will run and run. Corny and sentimental though undoubtedly is, McFarland is also a beautifully done, sheering heart-warmer. Inhabiting the space with leathery charm, style and grace, a relaxed […]

This easy-going junior-league British footie comedy comes from director John Hay in 2000, complete with a well-meaning, too-cosy, simple story, and laid-back, appealing performances. Lewis McKenzie plays shy, bullied Manchester schoolboy Jimmy Grimble who would […]
Without Limits *** (1998, Billy Crudup, Donald Sutherland, Monica Potter) – Classic Movie Review 2098
Co-writer/director Robert Towne’s 1998 biographical sports drama stars the young Billy Crudup as the amazingly promising but doomed American athlete Steve Prefontaine in the second out of two simultaneously made biopic films. This one has the […]
The World’s Greatest Athlete *** (1973, Jan-Michael Vincent, John Amos, Tim Conway, Roscoe Lee Browne, Billy De Wolfe, Nancy Walker, Vito Scotti) – Classic Movie Review 1601
The young, fresh-faced, rippling-muscled Jan-Michael Vincent stars in Walt Disney’s bright and lively 1973 Tarzan-style adventure The World’s Greatest Athlete. As Vincent said: ‘It sounds like a typical “Me Nanu, you Jane” movie, but it’s […]
