Bite the Bullet (1975) 69% EDIT “An overblown but interesting tale.” – Miami Herald Jan 15, 2026 Full Review The Texas Chainsaw Massacre Part 2 (1986) 50% 0/4 EDIT “It's bloody, witless and mind-numbing.” – South Florida Sun-Sentinel Jan 12, 2026 Full Review Stand by Me (1986) 88% 3.5/4 EDIT “Gracefully blending raucous comedy with intense drama, the film is about the loss of innocence as well as the getting of wisdom.” – South Florida Sun-Sentinel Jan 12, 2026 Full Review Death Race 2000 (1975) 80% EDIT “If it's far-fetched and fun-loving, "Death Race 2000" is rooted enough in the absurdities and passions of 1975 to make sense as a vision of the future.” – Miami Herald Dec 22, 2025 Full Review The Abyss (1989) 76% 2.5/4 EDIT “While one can admire the daunting risk it took to get the movie made, The Abyss proves too big and unwieldy an epic.” – South Florida Sun-Sentinel Dec 9, 2025 Full Review Desert Hearts (1985) 77% 3/4 EDIT “The best film yet made about love between two women. It's good-humored, well constructed, and refreshingly free of the morose contemplation and doubt that usually accompanies treatment of this theme. ” – South Florida Sun-Sentinel Oct 13, 2025 Full Review Hard Times (1975) 72% EDIT “Marginally interesting for work-weary and brain-fatigued patrons, it sponges up the minutes as painlessly and forgettably as bad television.” – Miami Herald Sep 26, 2025 Full Review Night of the Living Dead (1990) 57% 2/4 EDIT “Night of the Living Dead is a redundancy upon itself.” – South Florida Sun-Sentinel Sep 18, 2025 Full Review Supergirl (1984) 19% 2/4 EDIT “Heaven knows what the filmmakers spent on Supergirl, but regardless of the amount it wasn't enough to give wing to this mediocre adventure. ” – South Florida Sun-Sentinel Jun 27, 2025 Full Review Return to Oz (1985) 59% 3/4 EDIT “Director/co-screenwriter Walter Murch tells his story at the right pace, never getting so bogged down in one dilemma as to forget a crisis in the making somewhere else.” – South Florida Sun-Sentinel Jun 17, 2025 Full Review Night Moves (1975) 78% EDIT “Baffling holes in the plot are never filled in.” – Miami Herald May 28, 2025 Full Review The Stepford Wives (1975) 55% EDIT “Bryan Forbes is no Hitchcock. He is not shrewd enough to infuse William Goldman's script with an accelerating sense of doom.” – Miami Herald May 2, 2025 Full Review Star Wars: Episode VI - Return of the Jedi (1983) 83% EDIT “Dramatically, Return of the Jedi disappoints. In a sense, the narrative has boxed itself into a corner -- characters introduced and developed in the first two films are unwaveringly established in this one, so that there is no room for them to grow.” – South Florida Sun-Sentinel Apr 25, 2025 Full Review Brannigan (1975) 48% EDIT “It's one long chase through picturesque London streets, a series of dead-end clues and a lot of matter-of-fact plot twists.” – Miami Herald Apr 11, 2025 Full Review Supervixens (1975) 49% EDIT “The strengths of the film are overwhelmed by images of cruelty. He needn't have stooped to unmitigated brutality for audience thrills.” – Miami Herald Apr 11, 2025 Full Review Rancho Deluxe (1975) 62% EDIT “Events come at us sideways and very fast, overlapping with every scene, and the pace is just wild enough for a sizzling-good comedy -- unlike quite anything the screen has to offer.” – Miami Herald Mar 27, 2025 Full Review At Long Last Love (1975) 22% EDIT “Shepherd and Reynolds are neither dancers nor singers, and the dubious nature of their acting talents is only magnified here.” – Miami Herald Mar 25, 2025 Full Review Report to the Commissioner (1975) 55% EDIT “This is a compelling drama with barely a letup in the level of suspense.” – Miami Herald Mar 12, 2025 Full Review My Pleasure Is My Business (1974) 10% EDIT “"My Pleasure Is My Business" proves that Xaviera Holland can't act.” – Miami Herald Mar 11, 2025 Full Review Rafferty and the Gold Dust Twins (1975) 53% EDIT “Dick Richard's facility as a director lies with the full-bodied performances he commands.” – Miami Herald Mar 11, 2025 Full Review The Yakuza (1974) 49% EDIT “Dexterously shot action sequence grasp the speed and horror of martial arts fighting... interspersed throughout the picture, the bloody conflicts establish balance and rhythm to a taut script.” – Miami Herald Feb 26, 2025 Full Review Eraserhead (1977) 87% EDIT “Despite its visual achievements, Eraserhead disappoints. Lynch has overloaded his strange, confusing film with feelings of creepiness that don't add up to much. ” – Miami Herald Jan 22, 2025 Full Review Aladdin (1992) 96% 3/4 EDIT “Aladdin has just enough of all the right elements, including a winning series of songs by the late Howard Ashman, Alan Menken and Tim Rice. It's a family film in the truest sense of the term.” – South Florida Sun-Sentinel Dec 16, 2024 Full Review Little Women (1994) 92% EDIT “Gillian Armstrong's exceedingly lovely version is a glorious achievement in every respect. ” – South Florida Sun-Sentinel Apr 10, 2024 Full Review Lady Sings the Blues (1972) 73% EDIT “It is Diana Ross' film, and she manages to carry it despite its epic two hour and twenty minute length. ” – Miami Herald Apr 5, 2024 Full Review
