The Cheap Detective ** (1978, Peter Falk, Ann-Margret, John Houseman, Louise Fletcher, Nicol Williamson, Fernando Lamas, Madeline Kahn, Dom DeLuise) – Classic Movie Review 6793
The actors seem to be having a good time in the 1978 comedy The Cheap Detective sending up Humphrey Bogart’s films in a 1940 San Francisco-set parody with Peter Falk as a Bogart-style character called […]
Hooper *** (1978, Burt Reynolds, Sally Field, Jan-Michael Vincent, Brian Keith, John Marley, James Best, Adam West, Robert Klein) – Classic Movie Review 6739
Director Hal Needham’s amiable 1978 action adventure comedy is a very typical Seventies vehicle for Burt Reynolds, re-teamed with his Smokey and the Bandit (1977) co-star Sally Field and its director Needham (a former Hollywood stuntman). […]

Beverly Hills Cop II ** (1987, Eddie Murphy, Judge Reinhold, Jürgen Prochnow, Ronnie Cox, Allen Garfield, Brigitte Nielsen, Dean Stockwell) – Classic Movie Review 6650
Eddie Murphy’s energy and charm are severely tested on director Tony Scott’s extremely inferior 1987 sequel to 1984’s great hit Beverly Hills Cop. Predictably, Scott mostly dumps the original’s comedy element in favour of unsubtle strong […]
Back Roads *** (1981, Sally Field, Tommy Lee Jones, David Keith) – Classic Movie Review 6628
Sally Field rejoins her favourite director Martin Ritt (Norma Rae, Murphy’s Romance) for this familiar but easy-going and likeable 1981 romantic-comedy road movie drama about a prostitute called Amy Post (Field) and a drifter failed fighter named Elmore […]
