Time Bandits
Jordan M. Smith @ IONCINEMA.com
- Excerpt: Time Bandits reaches through the portholes of time with a free-wheeling freedom that allows him both the privileges of surrealism and the headiness to contemplate the philosophical and technological all within a wiley two hours. Though it’s no Brazil, the film remains a benchmark for the singular filmmaker.
Other Reviews from 2012 and earlier
Battle at Bloody Beach
Roderick Heath @ This Island Rod
- Excerpt: A low-budget offering from 20th Century Fox, Battle at Bloody Beach is notable as the only WW2-set movie Audie Murphy made apart from the autobiographical To Hell and Back.
Curse of the Crimson Altar
Roderick Heath @ This Island Rod
- Excerpt: Brief and competent enough to be a painless and even modestly profitable viewing for horror fans.
The Day They Robbed Bank of England
Stacia Kissick Jones @ She Blogged By Night
The Glass Ceiling
Donald Levit @ ReelTalk Movie Reviews
Miracle on 34th Street (1994)
Kristen Lopez @ Journeys in Classic Film
Night Must Fall (1964)
Stacia Kissick Jones @ She Blogged By Night
The Preacher’s Wife
Kristen Lopez @ Journeys in Classic Film
Skidoo
- Excerpt: Skidoo appears to be fueled entirely by flop sweat. Despite a remarkable cast that also includes George Raft, Frank Gorshin, Burgess Meredith, and Frankie Avalon, the group effort generates no comedic steam.
To All a Goodnight
James Jay Edwards @ FilmFracture
- Excerpt: Cinema Fearité Presents ‘To All A Goodnight’ – A Killer Santa Movie From A Time Before Killer Santa Movies Were A Real Thing
