Jackass: The Movie (2002) 49% 4/5 EDIT “As brainless as the movie incarnations of both South Park and Beavis and Butt-head, Jackass is just as funny as both -- and better than many of the so-called comedies Hollywood produces.” – BBC.com Jan 21, 2003 Full Review The Man Without a Past (2002) 98% 4/5 EDIT “It's impassive, impressive stuff from Kaurismki, who creates a heart-warming tale set against his nation's blighted economy.” – BBC.com Dec 24, 2002 Full Review Licence to Kill (1989) 79% 2/5 EDIT “Glen is clearly out of ideas, only managing to present a level of violence so out of character for the series, it surely contributed to the modest (by Bond standards) box office returns.” – BBC.com Sep 11, 2001 Full Review Boogie Nights (1997) 91% 3/5 EDIT “Anderson, a director who makes no secret of his admiration for both Scorsese and the similarly iconic Robert Altman is clearly talented but here, rather than being his own man, he only succeeds in flattering his idols.” – BBC.com Jun 27, 2001 Full Review The Evil Dead (1981) 85% 4/5 EDIT “...what it lacks in narrative weight, it compensates for with a relentless pace, disturbing atmosphere, as well as some imaginative displays of dismemberment.” – BBC.com Apr 17, 2001 Full Review Doctor Zhivago (1965) 82% 4/5 EDIT “Lean's last great film.” – BBC.com Apr 17, 2001 Full Review Vertigo (1958) 93% 5/5 EDIT “Pure Hitchcock.” – BBC.com Apr 17, 2001 Full Review Lawrence of Arabia (1962) 93% 5/5 EDIT “Grand in every sense, David Lean's film is an example of an established director full of confidence and ambition.” – BBC.com Apr 17, 2001 Full Review Face/Off (1997) 93% 5/5 EDIT “the film succeeds in overcoming its implausibilities because director Woo offers such a tantalising package.” – BBC.com Apr 17, 2001 Full Review Pi (1998) 88% 5/5 EDIT “Pi is a lesson to aspiring film makers everywhere: perfect your skills, be original, be bold. It's a pity young British directors aren't making films as unique and imaginative as this. Startlingly good cinema.” – BBC.com Apr 17, 2001 Full Review
