Desperately Seeking Susan (1985) 86% EDIT “An attractive, energetic young cast and some witty, off-center visual humor make the resultant laughs more than worth the wait.” – The Hollywood Reporter Apr 9, 2019 Full Review Red Dawn (1984) 48% EDIT “It packs plenty of rabble-rousing ammunition, but its sloppy execution is unlikely to win any merit badges for marksmanship.” – The Hollywood Reporter Aug 14, 2018 Full Review Lost in America (1985) 95% EDIT “Too often, things are simply too painfully accurate to be particularly funny. Still, it's hard to fault Brooks' resolutely adult intelligence, and Lost in America - almost in spite of itself, really - is easily his most consistently amusing work to date.” – The Hollywood Reporter Mar 19, 2018 Full Review Beverly Hills Cop (1984) 83% EDIT “This lickety-split action comedy is distinguished by the wry, character-conscious direction of Martin Brest, who coaxes a silver-bullet performance from star Eddie Murphy that's practically criminal in its accuracy.” – The Hollywood Reporter Dec 5, 2016 Full Review The Terminator (1984) 90% EDIT “The havoc makes for a genuine steel metal trap of a movie that may very well be the best picture of its kind since The Road Warrior.” – The Hollywood Reporter Oct 3, 2015 Full Review Dune (1984) 36% EDIT “Dune is not the masterpiece its adherents have hoped for - but neither is it the disaster its detractors have claimed.” – The Hollywood Reporter Jun 6, 2008 Full Review
