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 […]
The Pallbearer *** (1996, David Schwimmer, Gwyneth Paltrow) – Classic Movie Review 1170
David Schwimmer is very amusing as Tom Thompson, an agreeable young man corralled in as the pallbearer for a high-school buddy he hardly remembers by the deceased’s amorous mom (Barbara Hershey). Co-writer/director Matt Reeves excellent, […]

Great Expectations (1998, Ethan Hawke) Classic Film Review 842
Here’s director Alfonso (Gravity) Cuarón’s flashily filmed 1998 American revised and modernised version of the Charles Dickens novel, aimed accurately in style and tone at pop-video teenagers. There’s surprising, but largely successful casting in Ethan […]

Gene Hackman won a Golden Globe as Best Actor in a Comedy or Musical for his high-energy, funny turn as Royal Tenenbaum, the grand daddy of a very odd, dysfunctional family. After years away, he returns […]
Emma ***** (1996, Gwyneth Paltrow, Jeremy Northam, Ewan McGregor, Phyllida Law, Sophie Thompson, Alan Cumming, Toni Collette, James Cosmo, Greta Scacchi) – Classic Movie Review 439
Gwyneth Paltrow as the endlessly interfering Emma Woodhouse and Jeremy Northam as her eventual true love Mr Knightley are splendid in what had been the long awaited film of Jane Austen’s dazzlingly brilliant novel. The […]
