Planes, Trains and Automobiles (1987)
4 Star Films Posted by 4 Star Film Fan on Sep 22, 2014
This film should really be called Planes, Train, Automobiles, buses, trucks, burnt-out cars and …well you get the idea. This John Hughes comedy is set during the Thanksgiving holiday and it has a plot foretelling, Home Alone, although acted out in reverse. Let me explain. Instead of being stuc read more

Starring Sean Connery as Ian Fleming’s character James Bond, Agent 007, this installment has him facing off with Goldfinger.

Broadcast News (1987)
4 Star Films Posted by 4 Star Film Fan on Sep 22, 2014
I didn’t laugh at James L. Brook’s Broadcast News like I would your typical comedy (This is no Anchorman). However, I did find myself chuckling, in spite of myself, because these characters are humans and as humans, they are screw ups, petty people, and have errors in judgment. The humor read more
City of God (2002)
4 Star Films Posted by 4 Star Film Fan on Sep 22, 2014
The slash of a sharpened knife grabs our attention and from that point on there is no turning away from City of God. The story is fed to us by Rocket, a character we initially know very little about except he will help us make sense of all that follows. The setting of the story is the slums of Brazi read more

Searching for Bobby Fischer (1993)
4 Star Films Posted by 4 Star Film Fan on Sep 21, 2014
Josh Waitzkin (Max Pomeranc) seems like your average little boy with a bowl cut and an affinity for Legos and sports. However, soon his parents discover that he has a special gift for chess and his father (Joe Mantegna) especially wishes to cultivate his skills. He finds Josh a teacher named Bruce P read more

The Naked Gun: From the Files of Police Squad! (1988)
4 Star Films Posted by 4 Star Film Fan on Sep 19, 2014
When you hear the names Zucker, Abrahams and Zucker (Airplane!, Top Secret) you automatically know there are boatloads of zany sight gags, puns and parodies to be had. Although weaker than the previous films, thanks to another bang up job by Leslie Nielsen, this police drama parody is still a lot of read more

The Parallax View (1974)
4 Star Films Posted by 4 Star Film Fan on Sep 18, 2014

(500) Days of Summer (2009)
4 Star Films Posted by 4 Star Film Fan on Sep 18, 2014
“This is a story of boy meets girl, but you should know upfront, this is not a love story.” This one line is uttered by the very thematic narrator of (500) Days of Summer and it describes an aspiring architect-greeting card salesman named Tom Hanson who meets Summer Finn at the office. read more
Blade Runner (1982) – Final Cut – Updated
4 Star Films Posted by 4 Star Film Fan on Sep 18, 2014
“Too bad she won’t live but then again who does?” It’s the year 2019 in Los Angeles but this is a far cry from the world we are used to as you will soon see. Blade Runner is a hybrid neo-noir, dystopian, and sci-fi film. The Tyrell Corporation has successfully created humanoi read more
