Star Wars: Episode IV - A New Hope (1977) 94% 5/5 EDIT “Despite being over-hyped, over-marketed, and fairly flawed, Star Wars remains one of the most memorable and glorious fantasies ever made.” – BBC.com Aug 1, 2001 Full Review Exorcist: The Version You've Never Seen (2000) 88% 4/5 EDIT “There is no doubting this is a traumatic film, but whether or not you enjoy it will depend on what you're looking for.” – BBC.com Apr 25, 2001 Full Review Hannah and Her Sisters (1986) 92% 5/5 EDIT “Another masterpiece.” – BBC.com Apr 18, 2001 Full Review White Christmas (1954) 76% 4/5 EDIT “To be honest, it couldn't go wrong.” – BBC.com Apr 17, 2001 Full Review Viva Las Vegas (1964) 86% 4/5 EDIT “Ultimately it's hard to say exactly why you'll like it -- but you will.” – BBC.com Apr 17, 2001 Full Review The Sting (1973) 93% 3/5 EDIT “Way before Guy Ritchie's polished bad boy style and hugely complicated plot twists pulled in the punters, The Sting pioneered the genre.” – BBC.com Apr 17, 2001 Full Review Life of Brian (1979) 96% 5/5 EDIT “A beautiful film, a perfect comedy, and a gentle triumph of silliness over pomposity, self-importance, and intolerance.” – BBC.com Apr 17, 2001 Full Review Manhattan (1979) 93% 5/5 EDIT “The film perfectly captured the insecurity of late 1970s America.” – BBC.com Apr 17, 2001 Full Review The Manchurian Candidate (1962) 97% 4/5 EDIT “This genuinely frightening and daring film blew holes in the political complacency of post-war American cinema.” – BBC.com Apr 17, 2001 Full Review The Lord of the Rings (1978) 48% 4/5 EDIT “An atmospheric fairytale romp across the landscapes of Tolkien's imagination.” – BBC.com Apr 17, 2001 Full Review Delicatessen (1991) 90% 5/5 EDIT “A hugely enjoyable film, Delicatessen welds comedy and magic into a bizarre, grotesque fantasy of an oddball dystopian future.” – BBC.com Apr 17, 2001 Full Review The Quick and the Dead (1995) 62% 4/5 EDIT “The whole film has tremendous visual style, and the frequent bursts of violence are delivered with a clever and often hilarious use of special effects.” – BBC.com Apr 17, 2001 Full Review Chuck & Buck (2000) 85% 3/5 EDIT “This weirdly comic film strips off the gloss of youthful beauty to explore the darker side of childhood and ask what happens when the wilful, needy child within refuses to grow up.” – BBC.com Apr 17, 2001 Full Review Evil Dead II (1987) 88% 4/5 EDIT “One of the most visually inventive, relentless, and truly original films ever made.” – BBC.com Apr 17, 2001 Full Review The Yards (2000) 64% 3/5 EDIT “Gray avoids the more obvious gangster clichs, and the film brings some genuinely original flourishes to the genre.” – BBC.com Apr 16, 2001 Full Review Friday the 13th (1980) 68% 3/5 EDIT “A hugely influential film that contributed to the 1980s horror boom.” – BBC.com Jan 1, 2000 Full Review Death Becomes Her (1992) 58% 3/5 EDIT “It's a clumsy but nonetheless amusing satire on the desperation of the beauty obsessed movie industry.” – BBC.com Jan 1, 2000 Full Review Highlander (1986) 69% 3/5 EDIT “A truly heroic stomp through time and space.” – BBC.com Jan 1, 2000 Full Review Elizabeth (1998) 83% 4/5 EDIT “Kapur draws the best from an outstanding cast and delivers both an atmospheric romance and a mature exploration of a big theme - the dark duplicity, betrayal, and grubby ambition that runs through Britain's bloodthirsty history.” – BBC.com Jan 1, 2000 Full Review
