Rating T-Meter Title | Year Add Date
4/5 91% Waiting for Guffman (1996) " The songs (co-written by Guest and Tapster Harry Shearer) are suitably ridiculous and the deadpan gags come thick, fast and too numerous to mention, all delivered with knuckle-gnawing subtlety by the C-list cast with A-list style." — Empire Magazine

3/5 59% The Rugrats Movie (1998) " Fun for kids, but, despite some adult references, appeal for the over 10s is limited." — Empire Magazine

4/5 71% The Night of the Iguana (1964) " Brilliant, apart from some minor plot glitches." — Empire Magazine

3/5 56% Shutter (They Are Around Us) (2007) " If some of the shocks come off feeling as dated as last summer's Polaroids, it's a small price to play for a picture that manages to be scary and unsettling without resorting to cheap thrills and gore." — Total Film

4/5 81% Looking for Richard (1996) " Pacino has made an informative, engrossing and hugely enjoyable movie that stands as a work of pure entertainment, almost as powerful as its inspiration." — Empire Magazine

4/5 64% Chitty Chitty Bang Bang (1968) " The film is too long at well over two hours, but the effects are impressive for the time and the musical numbers zippy." — Empire Magazine
Posted Nov 2, 2003
5/5 100% Kes (1969) " Unforgettable when it first appeared 30 years ago, Kes remains something of a landmark." — Empire Magazine
Posted May 28, 2003
5/5 98% Das Boot (The Boat) (1981) " Masterful." — Empire Magazine
Posted Feb 5, 2002
3/5 13% Batman & Robin (1997) " Both plot and audience attention span stretch to breaking point." — Empire Magazine

3/5 54% The Cable Guy (1996) " The mix of light comedy and really quite dark themes proved too much for many viewers, but this is worth a look for Broderick's performance and Carrey's obsessive touches." — Empire Magazine
Posted Jan 1, 2000
4/5 63% Contact (1997) " Less sci-fi blockbuster, more spiritual thinkpiece, this is a Close Encounters Of The Third Kind for the X-Files generation." — Empire Magazine
Posted Jan 1, 2000
5/5 96% Sling Blade (1996) " It will make you laugh and cry. And it will make you think long and hard about the last time you saw a movie this good." — Empire Magazine
Posted Jan 1, 2000
95% Close Encounters of the Third Kind (1977) " . . . this is thrill-a-minute stuff." — Empire Magazine
Posted Jan 1, 2000
2/5 14% Fled (1996) " Big dumb fun, for sure, but not big and clever." — Empire Magazine
Posted Jan 1, 2000
3/5 50% The Ghost and the Darkness (1996) " This should have been Jaws meets Alien meets Out Of Africa. But instead ends up being a far more tepid version of all three." — Empire Magazine
