A spy thriller, an existential thriller and a brainteaser all at once, with great performances and hallucinatory visuals. Highly recommended.
Action
Lara Croft Tomb Raider: The Cradle of Life
Its watching films like this that make you really appreciate just how good the Indiana Jones movies really are.
Superman II
Inconsistent and poorly put together, but still extremely watchable thanks to the talent on show in front of the camera.
Alien: Resurrection
Visually impressive, but too much of it is contrived and totally far-fetched making it effectively the binary opposite of the original movie. Here is a prime example of a franchise that should have quit while it was ahead.
Hollywood Homicide
Jaded LA homicided detective Joe Gavilan has seen it all before and is surprised by nothing – which is just how you will feel after viewing this tired old hokum.
Aliens
An intense, explosion-filled edge-of-the-seat space romp that easily lives up to its predecessor.
