4/5 74% Ghost (1990) One of the finest (and weepiest) love stories ever to hit the big screen, Ghost is a a fundamental human tale that touches the hardest heart. - Empire Magazine EDIT

2/5 44% Twins (1988) The film feels, rather than the solid comedy it is, like a massive missed opportunity. - Empire Magazine EDIT

4/5 82% Driving Miss Daisy (1989) It gets to its hugely emotional destination without ever having to put the foot down; a poignant and provocative road movie. - Empire Magazine EDIT

4/5 89% Misery (1990) From start to harrowing finish, it is blissfully apparent that Rob Reiner can indeed turn his hand to virtually anything. - Empire Magazine EDIT

5/5 79% Casino (1995) It may not be Scorsese's greatest work, but this guy feeling a little off-colour is still far, far better than most people on fighting-fit form. It only gets more impressive as times goes on. - Empire Magazine EDIT

4/5 80% Batman Returns (1992) Burton continues to capture the essence of the Batman legend and more importantly his audiences imagination. - Empire Magazine EDIT

4/5 93% Lady and the Tramp (1955) With cracking music, a rollicking pace and dialogue that stands up to scrutiny, Lady and the Tramp really is among Walt's very best. - Empire Magazine EDIT

4/5 87% Fly Away Home (1996) It's a genuine delight and a definite thumbs aloft for kids of about six upwards. - Empire Magazine EDIT

3/5 85% Anastasia (1997) A charming little movie, nothing to write home about but a perfectly acceptable way to while away a rainy Sunday afternoon with the child, or children, in your life. - Empire Magazine EDIT

5/5 68% The Crucible (1996) In this almost perfect screen adaptation, the lingering question is the most important one: what caused such madness? - Empire Magazine EDIT

4/5 73% Falling Down (1993) While the morality of D-Fens methods are questionable, there's a resonance about his reaction to everyday annoyances, and Michael Douglas' hypnotic performance makes it memorable. - Empire Magazine EDIT

4/5 96% Four Weddings and a Funeral (1994) Funny, agreeably sweet and exceptionally well acted and directed. - Empire Magazine EDIT
