Final Destination (2000) 50% EDIT “The plot starts springing serious leaks in the last couple of reels, but this is an unassuming chiller, enthusiastically performed by a young cast of unfamiliar faces.” – Irish Times May 22, 2025 Full Review The Exorcist (1973) 78% EDIT “Although it's clear The Exorcist is no masterpiece, it still retains a powerful charge which most contemporary horror movies have lost in a flurry of post-modern irony and nudgewink jokiness. ” – Irish Times Sep 28, 2023 Full Review Godzilla (1998) 20% EDIT “It would be fun to report that Godzilla is a 400-foot-tall turkey in lizard's clothing, but the truth is that it's just rather dull.” – Irish Times Feb 15, 2023 Full Review Up 'n' Under (1998) EDIT “This broad comedy, in which rugby league takes the place of male strippers or brass bands, is a sadly unimaginative addition to the Grim Up North genre.” – Irish Times Jan 24, 2023 Full Review Eve's Bayou (1997) 83% EDIT “Louisiana has probably never before looked so well-manicured on film - but there's a cinematic intelligence at work here which subtly shifts focus at unexpected moments, creating a believably multi-layered portrait of a troubled family.” – Irish Times Jan 10, 2023 Full Review Space Jam (1996) 44% EDIT “Brash, noisy and colourful, Space Jam should appeal to young basketball and cartoon fans alike.” – Irish Times Mar 22, 2019 Full Review American Psycho (2000) 68% EDIT “As Bateman, the Welsh-born actor, Christian Bale, delivers the best performance of his career so far. ” – Irish Times Jan 1, 2000 Full Review Beloved (1998) 71% EDIT “A stolid, rather dull film that never breaks free of its reverential approach to its material, and that fails to find cinematic language for the literary strategies with which... Toni Morrison explored memory, loss and the bitter legacy of slavery.” – Irish Times Jan 1, 2000 Full Review
