The Game – Review

April 1, 1998

A subgenre of films has popped up recently, trading on our knowledge of movie conventions and genre clichés, but even that subgenre’s starting to grow stale.

Hoodlum – Review

April 1, 1998

A powerful film and historical drama. For those who watch Dave Letterman and The Daily Show for our news, we need films like this, Casino, and Rage in Harlem.

Excess Baggage – Review

April 1, 1998

Too slow to be an action movie, too under-developed to be a love story. It milks every plot devise it can, and invents more when the well runs dry.

A Life Less Ordinary – Review

April 1, 1998

8 Heads in a Duffel Bag – Review

April 1, 1998

The scenes with mobster Joe Pesci tormenting frat boys David Spade and Todd Louiso to make them talk are the best in the movie. Appreciate them while they last.

April 1, 1998
