At First Sight (1998)

"Some tame lovemaking between blind Virgil Adamson (Val Kilmer) and architect Amy Benic (Mira Sorvino)."

Different for Girls (1996)

"What makes this wonderfully deranged film fly is Rupert (“Maurice”; “Where Angels Fear to Tread”) Graves."

Fled (1996)

"On the plus side, at least for this type of effort, there is a new type of Chinese torture, tampon bandages, numerous film trivia allusions, bullets through peepholes, lots of women as strippers (Oh, not again!!), and a fine soundtrack produced by wunderk"

Home Before Dark (1998)

"It is fun, though, to be in Ms. Ross’ presence again even though her idea of a rigid aunt is straight out of a community theater’s interpretation of “Mommie Dearest.”"

I Love You, Don't Touch Me! (1996)

"This woman is so grating, so self-absorbed, and so without a sense of humor, you can't be sympathetic to her self-inflicted chastity. Katie deserves to be alone. Sadly, she's wound up on the screen."

"the miscasting of Ms. Elfman as someone with a brain defies belief."

"a study of the difficulties working-class love faces when confronted with unemployment, past betrayals, and a deteriorating social structure"

Misc: Miami Film Festival

"Though there are rumors that the Rambo star is moving away from this tanning arena because of the recent Versace brouhaha, Miami is still his turf. And where else can he achieve such respect in the Arts?"

The New Adventures of Pinocchio (1999)

"I’ll probably just chill out for a couple of years, concentrate on school, then hopefully enter back into the business, and you know getting into directing like Ron Howard and Jodie Foster."

Nothing (1999)

"like a West Coast suburban, post-pubescent Woody Allen, like a Sartre on laughing gas, Aaronson has created a film that will have you floored..."

"Thanks to Boaz (Fresh) Yorkin, we now have Bye, Bye, Hasid or better yet Escape from the Tefillin."

Sense and Sensibility (1995)

"This is a film devoid of egotism but full of soul, an intelligent work of art that is not afraid to get wacky at times."

Sphere (1998)

"Sphere yearns to be a philosophical epic but it's final and only edict is so rudimentary as to barely exist: man is not yet 'ready' either intellectually or emotionally for the gifts E.T.'s are willing to share with us."
