|---|---|---|---|
| 44% | Star Trek: The Motion Picture (1979) |
There are only so many ways to photograph black starry space and the under-bellies of spaceships, and the films that got there first used them all up.‐ Washington Post

| 94% | Reds (1981) |
It is occasionally rambling and repetitious, but nearly always intelligent and engrossing.‐ Washington Post

| 75% | The Great Muppet Caper (1981) |
Like its predecessor, this film is its own best fan.‐ Washington Post

| 90% | Martin (1977) |
"Martin" is pretentious in a way that pornography is when it is dressed up for people who don't want to admit to their taste.‐ Washington Post

| 93% | Napoléon (1929) |
Inspires that wonderfully satisfying theatrical experience of whole-heartedly cheering a hero and hissing villains, while also providing the uplift that comes from a real work of art.‐ Washington Post

| 69% | A Little Romance (1979) |
The intentional comedy in the film always seems on the verge of working, but then is quickly bludgeoned to death.‐ Washington Post

| 78% | The Revenge of the Pink Panther (1978) |
What fun it would be to see all those involved - including perhaps the durable Clouseau character - try something from scratch.‐ Washington Post

| No Score Yet | Czlowiek z Marmuru (Man of Marble) (1981) |
Audiences less anxious to help the film say things they want said will find this point obscured by the clumsy celebrity-fan approach employed as a dramatic device.‐ Washington Post

| No Score Yet | Rich Kids (1979) |
Heart warming is not really the term ... "Insufferable" would be more like it.‐ Washington Post

| No Score Yet | Don Giovanni (1979) |
If you had a choice between hearing the opera live and seeing the film, you should insist on doing both.‐ Washington Post

| 75% | Grease (1978) |
Couldn't the makers of "Grease" have unearthed one person who was alive in that time, perhaps even one who attended an American high school then, and checked their information?‐ Washington Post

| 89% | Heaven Can Wait (1978) |
This is a very sweet movie to watch, the pleasant cinematic equivalent of light summer reading.‐ Washington Post

|
| 93% | Superman (1978) |
It's the simple, earth-bound quality of the film that makes this comic-book fantasy soar.‐ Washington Post

|
| 94% | Star Wars: Episode V - The Empire Strikes Back (1980) |
The total effect is fast and attractive and occasionally amusing. Like a good hot dog, that's something of an achievement in a field where unpalatable junk is the rule.‐ Washington Post
