K2 (1992) |
It is when director Franc Roddam and writer Patrick Meyers try to deepen the characters and say something about male bonding that the story plummets. - Financial Times

Hangin' With the Homeboys (1991) |
It is a funny, honest and often very touching account of the give-and-take of male relationships which puts to shame the multimillion dollar explorations of the same subject. - Financial Times
