The Sure Thing (1985) 84% EDIT “The script by Steven L. Bloom and Jonathan Robert is full of lines that would never come out of real people's mouths, but should be savored in real people's minds. ” – Bay Area Reporter Jan 7, 2026 Full Review Desert Hearts (1985) 77% EDIT “If you’ve been thirsting for a good lesbian love story, Desert Hearts is a real oasis. It may just reach in and put a string of lights around (your) heart.” – Bay Area Reporter Oct 13, 2025 Full Review My Beautiful Laundrette (1985) 95% EDIT “English-Pakistani Kureishi has written a perceptive, complex script about the limited opportunities in Margaret Thatcher's England, and how immigrants without too many scruples are able to move up in the pecking order. ” – Bay Area Reporter Oct 10, 2025 Full Review This Is Spinal Tap (1984) 98% EDIT “The target of the satire is the music industry and This is Spinal Tap is right on target.” – Bay Area Reporter Sep 9, 2025 Full Review Superman III (1983) 31% EDIT “The final assemblage is so lacking in structure that you might re-edit it in your head as you watch and come away with a better film.” – Bay Area Reporter Jul 7, 2025 Full Review Supergirl (1984) 19% EDIT “Supergirl isn't quite a flop, but two hours of camp without wit behind it requires super-tolerance.” – Bay Area Reporter Jun 28, 2025 Full Review The Karate Kid Part II (1986) 49% EDIT “What counts is the heartwarming relationship between Miyagi and his young disciple. ” – Bay Area Reporter May 27, 2025 Full Review Star Wars: Episode VI - Return of the Jedi (1983) 83% EDIT “Nitpicking aside, Return of the Jedi is a powerfully pleasing package that reminds us what the joy of moviegoing is all about.” – Bay Area Reporter Apr 25, 2025 Full Review Withnail and I (1987) 84% EDIT “Despite its dark side, the film is fresh and almost constantly hilarious.” – Bay Area Reporter Apr 4, 2025 Full Review The Breakfast Club (1985) 87% EDIT “The Breakfast Club is such a significant film, the fact that it's also a very good one is almost incidental. This movie is so "now" it's the future. ” – Bay Area Reporter Feb 14, 2025 Full Review Blue Velvet (1986) 91% EDIT “When it takes the world some time to return to normal after a movie, I know I've been in the presence of a powerful director. If Blue Velvet were any stronger in this regard you'd need a prescription to see it. ” – Bay Area Reporter Jan 21, 2025 Full Review Prancer (1989) 68% EDIT “Not exactly rapid-fire to begin with, Prancer slows to a crawl toward the end. Maurice Jarre's syrupy score, suggesting a majesty not present in the visuals, drags it down further.” – Bay Area Reporter Dec 13, 2024 Full Review The Brave Little Toaster (1987) 79% EDIT “Lacking the polish of its bigger-budgeted competition, The Brave Little Toaster has its own kind of charm -- as fits its plot, a celebration of low-tech.” – Bay Area Reporter Dec 13, 2024 Full Review All Dogs Go to Heaven (1989) 46% EDIT “Aside from the songs it's pretty well done, but it's not in a class with An American Tail.” – Bay Area Reporter Dec 13, 2024 Full Review The Little Mermaid (1989) 92% EDIT “Old habits are hard to break, and The Little Mermaid lives up to Disney standards, so that's good enough for me.” – Bay Area Reporter Dec 13, 2024 Full Review Jaws III (1983) 10% EDIT “This Jaws doesn't bite -- it sucks.” – Bay Area Reporter Aug 14, 2024 Full Review The Mystery of Alexina (1985) EDIT “Though rather short the film is very leisurely paced, and lacking comic relief it might in¬ spire viewers to laugh in the wrong places. Still, its intriguing story should amuse the curious.” – Bay Area Reporter Jul 27, 2024 Full Review Out of Bounds (1986) EDIT “Everything in-the movie is preposterous and/or predictable, but Iowa farm boys may enjoy the fantasy of one of their own taking on the big bad city and winning.” – Bay Area Reporter Jul 27, 2024 Full Review Aliens (1986) 94% EDIT “It rips off everything from Forbidden Planet to The Re-Animator but makes it all fun.” – Bay Area Reporter Jul 27, 2024 Full Review Spaceballs (1987) 52% EDIT “"Prince Valium” has the right idea -- he yawns all the way through it.” – Bay Area Reporter Apr 3, 2024 Full Review The Color Purple (1985) 73% EDIT “It's such a wonderful movie I'm willing to overlook the subtle change which, while making it a bit less meaningful for [queer people], will help it to reach a great many more people. ” – Bay Area Reporter May 25, 2023 Full Review An American Tail (1986) 76% EDIT “As you might expect from the Spielberg label, it’s the best animated feature for kids in years.” – Bay Area Reporter May 16, 2023 Full Review Scarface (1983) 78% EDIT “Though almost as long, Scarface doesn't have the depth or complexity of either Godfather films. It is, however, a hard-hitting update of the old-style gangster movie. ” – Bay Area Reporter May 12, 2023 Full Review Silkwood (1983) 77% EDIT “Mike Nichols' direction does nothing to call attention to itself, just concentrates on letting the story develop -- which it does powerfully. ” – Bay Area Reporter May 12, 2023 Full Review Yentl (1983) 69% EDIT “If you're not fanatical about Streisand you'll get more than enough of her in Yentl, but the movie also provides more meaningful entertainment than we had any right to hope for. ” – Bay Area Reporter May 12, 2023 Full Review
