Vanishing Point (1971) 62% EDIT “A virtuoso exploitation of the astonishing range of the movie camera.” – Sunday Independent (Ireland) Feb 5, 2026 Full Review Manhattan (1979) 93% EDIT “Manhattan is a latter-day Modern Times with Allen as a Chaplin of the psyche. But in putting down cultural chic, it comes near to being what it satirises. ” – Sunday Independent (Ireland) Feb 4, 2026 Full Review Days of Heaven (1978) 93% EDIT “People are only elements in the grand order of life: as much attention is lavished on a close-up of a locust destroying the corn crop as on Miss Adams. It's an eerie, haunting poetic movie; completely out of ordinary run of commercial cinema. ” – Sunday Independent (Ireland) Feb 4, 2026 Full Review Bite the Bullet (1975) 69% EDIT “Based on a true event, a gruelling 700 mile horse race over savage country, it becomes as much as an endurance test for the audience as for the riders.” – Sunday Independent (Ireland) Jan 15, 2026 Full Review Christine (1983) 72% EDIT “Never mind that the whole idea is outlandish. What matters is the conviction with which Carpenter builds up Stephen King's story, hooking us with its horrifying logic.” – Sunday Independent (Ireland) Dec 17, 2025 Full Review The Terminator (1984) 90% EDIT “Director James Cameron has a stunning visual fluency that makes the complexities of the plot ambivallant without ever becoming tedious or obscure; the throbbing momentum builds up to a sadly elegiac denouement that for once isn't a letdown.” – Sunday Independent (Ireland) Dec 8, 2025 Full Review Beverly Hills Cop (1984) 83% EDIT “Just sheer enjoyment. It leaves you with the pleasurable afterglow of being in the company of someone who makes you laugh even when he's being vicious.” – Sunday Independent (Ireland) Dec 8, 2025 Full Review Dracula (1979) 63% EDIT “Not a memorable "Dracula" but a memorable Dracula if only because he's so different.” – Sunday Independent (Ireland) Oct 23, 2025 Full Review Hard Times (1975) 72% EDIT “The sensitive feel of a writer is evident. There's a colorful sense of time and place.” – Sunday Independent (Ireland) Sep 27, 2025 Full Review
