Othello *** (1995, Laurence Fishburne, Kenneth Branagh, Irène Jacob) – Classic Movie Review 3340
Ideally cast Kenneth Branagh scores a triumph as the scheming villain Iago in this penny-plain, much-cut 1995 film version of the Shakespeare play of scheming and betrayal in 16th-century Venice. But, try as they might, […]
Wild Wild West ** (1999, Will Smith, Kevin Kline, Kenneth Branagh, Selma Hayek) – Classic Movie Review 2488
Director Barry Sonnenfeld’s 1999 comedy Western big-screen version of the 1965-69 TV series is carelessly handled and drossily scripted. It must have been a near thing, very touch and go, but Will Smith’s charisma and […]

Wild Wild West ** (1999, Will Smith, Kevin Kline, Kenneth Branagh, Salma Hayek) – Classic Movie Review 1777
Director Barry Sonnenfeld’s slack 1999 comedy is a carelessly handled and drossily scripted big-screen version of the 1965-69 TV series The Wild Wild West that gets by on the skills and charms of its stars, as […]
Murder on the Orient Express **** (1974, Albert Finney, Ingrid Bergman, Sean Connery, Vanessa Redgrave) – Classic Movie Review 1304
Director Sidney Lumet’s sumptuous, famous 1974 film mystery set a cinema trend, starting a long, profitable train of Agatha Christie hit movies. This film’s tagline is ‘The greatest cast of suspicious characters ever involved in murder.’ […]
