Michael *** (1996, John Travolta, Andie MacDowell, William Hurt, Bob Hoskins, Jean Stapleton, Robert Pastorelli) – Classic Movie Review 3741
John Travolta lands a useful tailor-made role as the archangel Michael, with razor stubble, a hairy chest, a flabby gut and wings who drinks, smokes and dances. He comes back to Earth to live in […]
Lost in Space *** (1998, Gary Oldman, William Hurt, Matt LeBlanc, Heather Graham, Mimi Rogers) – Classic Movie Review 3700
The fondly remembered Irwin Allen 1965-68 family sci-fi TV series lives again in director Stephen Hopkins’s daft but likeable mega-budget ($90million) 1998 big-screen re-creation. A cast of actors rather than stars take the parts of the […]
Jane Eyre *** (1996, William Hurt, Charlotte Gainsbourg, Anna Paquin, Joan Plowright, Richard Warwick) – Classic Movie Review 2671

Changing Lanes **** (2002, Ben Affleck, Samuel L. Jackson) – Classic Movie Review 1425
Director Roger Michell’s 2002 drama is a real thriller. It was one of its year’s best films. After a minor road prang in the rain in New York, harassed, up-and-coming lawyer Ben Affleck and insurance […]
The Host ** (2013, Saoirse Ronan, Diane Kruger, Max Irons, Jake Abel, Frances Fisher, William Hurt, Emily Browning) – Movie Review
Panned by critics and weak at the box office, The Host has a host of problems that start with the ponderous, poorly written screenplay and flat direction of Andrew Niccol, struggling to adapt Stephenie (Twilight) […]
Dark City **** (1997, Rufus Sewell, William Hurt, Kiefer Sutherland, Patrick Stewart) – Classic Movie Review 1099
Writer-director Alex Proyas’s extraordinary 1997 sci-fi chiller is a very pleasant surprise. Dark, intense and imaginative, this brilliant looking and exciting movie is excellently crafted by Proyas. Rufus Sewell stars as John Murdoch, who is […]
