Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels

Complex, comical, and streets ahead of the rip-off merchants, this is one of the most influential Brit-flicks of the 90s.

Pulp Fiction

Exhilarating, innovative, and eye-popping – this is one of those movies that everyone has to see.

So I Married An Axe Murderer

Not exactly a thinker, but it’s a nice chortlesome way to spend an hour-and-a-half.

48 Hrs.

Outdated, offensive, and not remotely funny – give this one a wide berth.

Terminator 2: Judgement Day

An amazing sequel that lives up to the original, and could be argued to be even better.

The Salton Sea

A gripping thriller with everything going for it. This film contains fine work from all involved, and is well worth watching.

Badlands

This film has become something of a classic, and many later productions have drawn from its rich source material. Fascinating but laconic, those most likely to dislike it are those used to the faster pace of more recent films

The Fast and the Furious

Hardly the deepest plot ever seen, but plenty of exciting automotive action and attractive cars.

Dark Water

Women on the verge of a Japanese ghost story.

The Hunted

A laughably bad action movie, with an overall rating bumped up only by the obvious capability of the actors involved – which of course begs the question of why any of them wanted that involvement in the first place.
