| 1 |
The Producers 1968, PG)
HILARIOUS! Zero Mostel & Gene Wilder are a combination the likes of which has not been seen for many a day. And when I think that they had the nerve to remake this...grrrr |
|
| 2 |
Arsenic and Old Lace 1944, Unrated)
Absolutely hilarious. Cary Grant proves his mastery over physical comedy. |
|
| 3 |
Batman Begins 2005, PG-13)
Finally. It has come. Batman, the way he was first incarnated. |
|
| 4 |
Spider-Man 2002, PG-13)
A smashing rendition of the old saga. The ending was so perfectly drawn, it made me say, "Yes, that is Spider-Man." |
|
| 5 |
Spider-Man 2 2004, PG-13)
I still can't figure for sure whether this or its predecessor was the better movie, and that is entirely due to Alfred Molina. What a Trouper! |
|
| 6 |
The Princess Bride 1987, PG)
The modern swashbuckler by which its contemporaries are judged. Nothing here is off even a trifle. |
|
| 7 |
The Philadelphia Story 1940, Unrated)
|
|
| 8 |
The Quiet Man 1952, Unrated)
|
|
| 9 |
Singin' in the Rain 1952, G)
The movie musical by which all others are judged. Unmissable by any fan of the genre. |
|
| 10 |
Star Wars: Episode IV - A New Hope 1977, PG)
This rating applies to Star Wars, the _original_. I have no truck with this 'director's cut' nonsense, and there is no "episode 4." |
|
| 11 |
Star Wars: Episode V - The Empire Strikes Back 1980, PG)
The great one. |
|
| 12 |
The Incredibles 2004, PG)
One of the best movies of recent years |
|
| 13 |
Sergeant York 1941, Unrated)
|
|
| 14 |
Father Goose 1964, Unrated)
Grant delivers another fantastic performance. This is a tale from the ages, and well-rendered. |
|
| 15 |
Casablanca 1942, PG)
One of the few 'classics' that I found to live up to it's immense hype. |
|
| 16 |
WarGames (War Games) 1983, PG)
A genuine cult classic, and utterly deserved. The only regret is that it contributed to Broderick's typecasting as "teenage twerp." |
