The American President (1995) 90% 3.5/5 EDIT “A snappy, sharply written romantic comedy, The American President makes valiant efforts not to venture into fantasyland. ” – Winnipeg Sun Jan 22, 2026 Full Review Misery (1990) 87% EDIT “It's an effective thriller and it has a meaningful subtext.” – Winnipeg Sun Jan 21, 2026 Full Review The Mother and the Bear (2024) 89% 3.5/5 EDIT “Winnipeg can look pretty bleak on film, but Briones, outsider though he may be, proves adept in finding the visual magic of this godforsaken place.” – Winnipeg Free Press Jan 10, 2026 Full Review A Few Good Men (1992) 85% 3.5/5 EDIT “...the movie is a satisfying courtroom drama, although director Rob Reiner is inclined to water down things with some comic touches that seem to be borrowed from his previous movie - When Harry Met Sally.” – Winnipeg Free Press Jan 9, 2026 Full Review Hook (1991) 37% 4/4 EDIT “The Academy may as well send Oscars to the production designers right now and get it out of the way.” – Winnipeg Sun Dec 19, 2025 Full Review Silent Night, Deadly Night (2025) 77% 3/5 EDIT “The new iteration of Silent Night redeems the source material with a fresh take that, uncomfortably, compels the audience to be more sympathetic to its designated psycho.” – Winnipeg Free Press Dec 12, 2025 Full Review True Lies (1994) 77% EDIT “True Lies is another Cameron hybrid with the most unlikely of parents: James Bond and Lucy Ricardo. It is a combination of domestic comedy and big, big action. ” – Winnipeg Sun Dec 10, 2025 Full Review Terminator 2: Judgment Day (1991) 91% 4.5/5 EDIT “After taking a wobbly step with The Abyss, Cameron can now confidently assume his rightful place as the best action genre director around. And of course Arnold is at his very best when he's playing a robot.” – Winnipeg Sun Dec 9, 2025 Full Review Meadowlarks (2025) 88% 3.5/5 EDIT “Meadowlarks earns its tears, both from the characters and, inevitably, from the audience.” – Winnipeg Free Press Dec 3, 2025 Full Review Predator 2 (1990) 36% EDIT “Assuming we don't ask too many questions, we're supposed to sit back and enjoy the massacre. But in fact, the massacre is tedious.” – Winnipeg Sun Oct 31, 2025 Full Review Casper (1995) 59% 2.5/5 EDIT “The resulting hi-jinks amount to another calculated hit along the lines of The Flintstones from Universal Studios, who seem to have designed this movie as one big theme park tie-in.” – Winnipeg Free Press Oct 3, 2025 Full Review To Sleep With Anger (1990) 93% 4/5 EDIT “While slow and stylistically spartan, To Sleep With Anger pointedly presents a series of dichotomies within the family. ” – Winnipeg Sun Sep 25, 2025 Full Review Boogie Nights (1997) 91% 5/5 EDIT “Twenty-seven-year-old director Paul Thomas Anderson is strutting his stuff behind the camera as self-consciously as the disco dancers in front of it. Forgive him. The bottom line is that Anderson really can dance.” – Winnipeg Sun Sep 24, 2025 Full Review Hard Eight (1996) 82% 4/5 EDIT “The reason Hard Eight is so appealing is that it veers sharply from most conventional Hollywood fare -- and most unconventional Hollywood fare for that matter... You simply don't know where it's going to go until it gets there.” – Winnipeg Sun Sep 22, 2025 Full Review Night of the Living Dead (1990) 57% EDIT “It straddles between offensiveness and good taste and as a result it has no impact, little humor, and no soul.” – Winnipeg Sun Sep 18, 2025 Full Review The Long Walk (2025) 88% 3.5/5 EDIT “They’re all very good performers, especially Plummer, but Hoffman and Jonsson hold the centre of the film. Hoffman has a natural charm, providing much-needed warmth in the chilling premise.” – Winnipeg Free Press Sep 15, 2025 Full Review Darkman (1990) 80% 4/5 EDIT “Darkman is far closer to the spirit of the comic book form than either Batman or Dick Tracy. And as a matter of fact, it's a better movie than both of them.” – Winnipeg Sun Aug 25, 2025 Full Review Dirty Work (1998) 21% 2/5 EDIT “It's a mean little comedy.” – Winnipeg Sun Aug 18, 2025 Full Review Nobody 2 (2025) 76% 3/5 EDIT “Odenkirk continues his streak as a late-in-life action hero. He maintains a wry sense of humour, but he is never spoofy. He holds his action responsibilities as one does a sacred vow.” – Winnipeg Free Press Aug 18, 2025 Full Review The Wedding Banquet (1993) 94% 3/5 EDIT “The Wedding Banquet deftly walks a line between eastern and western audience by sticking with a gently sardonic tone.” – Winnipeg Sun Aug 15, 2025 Full Review American Psycho (2000) 68% 3.5/5 EDIT “Bale, an actor who is male-model-handsome enough to epitomize Bateman's cold surface glamour, is also smart enough to understand that the character he's playing is not just a monster, but a loser.” – Winnipeg Sun Aug 15, 2025 Full Review Mission: Impossible (1996) 67% 2.5/5 EDIT “This is a big, empty thrill machine.” – Winnipeg Sun Aug 15, 2025 Full Review Red Rock West (1993) 95% 2.5/5 EDIT “While an amusing little waste-o'-time, this film by writer-director John Dahl never really takes off. Any style and wit is subdued, as is Cage, who might as well be sleepwalking through this part.” – Winnipeg Sun Jul 15, 2025 Full Review The Life of Chuck (2024) 80% 4/5 EDIT “Flanagan’s gift holds firm here. Stressing the humanistic, his film is ultimately a celebration of creativity, whether that takes the form of brazenly dancing in the street, or engaging in a secret creative process for an audience of one.” – Winnipeg Free Press Jun 23, 2025 Full Review Endless Cookie (2025) 90% 4/5 EDIT “It’s a freewheeling trip.” – Winnipeg Free Press Jun 23, 2025 Full Review
