I Love You, Man ***½ (2009, Paul Rudd, Jason Segel, Jaime Pressly, Jon Favreau, Jane Curtin, J K Simmons, Andy Samberg) – Classic Movie Review 4340
Co-writer/ director John Hamburg’s highly amusing and likeable 2006 comedy has a good script but it is largely motored by the appealing performances from odd couple Paul Rudd and Jason Segel. Apart from the rude words and […]
Captain Corelli’s Mandolin ** (2001, Nicolas Cage, Penélope Cruz, John Hurt, Christian Bale) – Classic Movie Review 3085
Director John Madden’s 2001 movie version of the Louis de Bernières international bestseller was immensely popular and has some things to recommend it. But it is bland, trite, clichéd and miscast, with all the book’s […]

Laurel Canyon *** (2002, Frances McDormand, Christian Bale, Kate Beckinsale) – Classic Movie Review 1533
You don’t expect to see Oscar-winner Frances McDormand playing a free-spirited record producer prone to wild parties and taking dope, with her tongue down the throat of the fiancée (Kate Beckinsale) of her estranged son Sam (Christian […]
The Secret Life of Walter Mitty **** (1947, Danny Kaye, Virginia Mayo, Boris Karloff) – Classic Film Review 527
Director Norman Z McLeod’s 1947 comedy gem turned out to be one of Danny Kaye’s finest and most admired and enjoyed films. It’s simple humour from a different era, but it’s still sweet and charming. In a […]
