Bedazzled
Pretty Bad 66 Points 1967

One might think Raquel Welch would be in at least several scenes of Bedazzled, given her prominence – ahem – in the poster. You’d be wrong. Thrusting her benchmark boobs into Dudley Moore’s face, with only a bikini top in the way, she looks very big in the poster. Very big. Yet Raquel – #2 "Hot…

The Replacements
Barely OK 83 Points 2000

The dramatic depth of a lite beer commercial, egregious stereotyping and one-note performances consign The Replacements to cellar-dweller status. Even the great Gene Hackman can’t rescue it from ridiculousness, triteness and mean-spiritedness. Consider it a weak replacement for a quality foot…

Aces High
OK 17 Points 1976

Those Magnificent Men in their Flying Machines – as the phrase went back in the day. Magnificent indeed, but also jaded, troubled, and struggling with the fact that so little of them ever make it through WWI sotries alive. Aces High takes a soft-pedal (well, soft for a 70’s movie anyway) look a…

White House Down
OK 83 Points 2013

White House Down is bombing at the box office, surprising both Hollywood and Channing Tatum fans.1 Stiff opening competition from The Heat is part of the reason, but this heavily hyped movie’s commercial coup de grâce is almost certainly its coup…

WikChip Image Good running-mates. Bad platform.
The Grandmaster
OK 66 Points 2013

Stately to a fault, reverential to an extreme, The Grandmaster is kung fu cinema elevated to formal art. Stodginess aside, it no doubt lingers in the mind’s eye of hard core kung fu fans, let alone for the legendary Ip Man’s disciples. For the rest of us – focused on the Bruce Lee connection …

RoboCop
OK 83 Points 2014

A tin-can story full of tinny moments jolts a great cinema cyborg back to life, disappointingly. Sadly, the Robocop reboot suffers from a lack of heart, a surfeit of silly sardonicism and too much shallow bombast.

It does feature three great performances from three great moviestars: Samuel …

The Eagle
OK 83 Points 2011

Cravenly exploitative and sporting a bad title, The Eagle mostly lays an egg. While it’s kinda worth watching for hard-bitten war movie guys, slumming history buffs should steer clear. As one of those stories that starts where the legend leaves off, the history is tripe. Fortunately the prod…

Centurion
OK 83 Points 2010

Slasher movies have nothing on this swordplay spectacular. Heads and arms are so much meat for the blade, lopped off right and left, as a group of Roman soldiers battles back from behind enemy lines.

So what’s to recommend it? A visually rich portrayal of the Roman army in early Britannia, t…
