Director David Butler’s 1956 The Girl He Left Behind is an over-familiar but pleasant and mildly amusing Fifties services comedy drama, with Tab Hunter as college student Andy Shaeffer, a military draftee knocked into shape […]
Tomahawk ** (1951, Van Heflin, Yvonne De Carlo, Alex Nicol) – Classic Movie Review 7579
Director George Sherman’s 1951 Universal International Pictures movie Tomahawk (aka The Battle of Powder River) is a fairly lively Western, set in Wyoming in the 1860s, and based on (or suggested by) a story by Daniel […]
Streamers **** (1983, Matthew Modine, Michael Wright, Mitchell Lichtenstein) – Classic Movie Review 7534

Stripes *** (1981, Bill Murray, John Candy, Harold Ramis, Warren Oates, P J Soles, Sean Young, Judge Reinhold, John Larroquette) – Classic Movie Review 6521
The team behind 1979’s Meatballs reconvene for director Ivan Reitman’s follow-up military spoof comedy in 1981. The results are pretty much the same. It is equally amiable, broad and fairly crass. Bill Murray and Harold […]
