Fine tension-filled coming-of-age drama with Eminem turning in a commendable performance in his first major role. This film will even appeal to many who have no knowledge of or interest in the rap lifestyle.
Brazil
If anything, “Brazil” has significantly improved with age. A film for the “Matrix” generation, its time has now come.
But I'm a Cheerleader
Touching and funny comedy of teenage sexual personal discovery and the journey to self-awareness. Perhaps not for everyone, but will please an unexpected number of people.
Reign of Fire
Flawed but enjoyable dragon-slayer tale based on an interesting idea but which could be better executed.
Swimfan
While this is not bad as a teen thriller, sadly this story has been told on film a number of times before and often with better results.
Deathwatch
Decently-made war horror that does suffer a little from a slow second half and a not unexpected ending.
