Waterworld (1995) 60% EDIT “The many visual effects are more than adequate to distract one from the film’s numerous plot holes, incongruities and unrealized possibilities.” – The Hollywood Reporter Jul 28, 2025 Full Review Dirty Work (1998) 21% EDIT “"Dirty Work" is indistinguishable from dozens of other low-concept comedies of the past few years.” – The Hollywood Reporter May 14, 2025 Full Review Alien Resurrection (1997) 56% EDIT “Alien Resurrection checks in with enough slime, gore and scary monster-flick moments to satisfy undemanding audiences. But it's an ugly, animated corpse of a movie stitched together from the other three films in the series.” – The Hollywood Reporter Aug 7, 2024 Full Review Clueless (1995) 82% EDIT “Clueless is no "Monet" (translation: looks fine from a distance, but really a mess up close). It is put together well and rarely pauses long enough for one to dwell on its minor shortcomings.” – The Hollywood Reporter Mar 15, 2021 Full Review Mission: Impossible II (2000) 58% EDIT “Newton is just about the best thing about M:I-2, playing a thinly written and cryptically motivated character with such charisma that one hangs on every lifting eyebrow and seductive smile.” – The Hollywood Reporter Jun 15, 2020 Full Review The Mummy (1999) 63% EDIT “Far more ambitious than its predecessors but a notch or two below the unique event-movie experience it might have been.” – The Hollywood Reporter May 12, 2020 Full Review Analyze This (1999) 70% EDIT “Analyze This has multiple personalities and hits the audience with a few fresh jokes but far too many 1970s mafia movie cliches.” – The Hollywood Reporter Mar 5, 2020 Full Review GoldenEye (1995) 80% EDIT “With a dynamite opening reel that showcases the series renewed vigor, GoldenEye is two hours of well-executed thrills, high-tech mayhem and one-of-a-kind comedy.” – The Hollywood Reporter Nov 19, 2019 Full Review The Remains of the Day (1993) 96% EDIT “Beautiful to look at and deeply moving in many scenes.” – The Hollywood Reporter Nov 5, 2019 Full Review Stargate (1994) 53% EDIT “Stargate is a blast from the past in many ways, but it imaginatively employs the latest special effects technology to give audiences new thrills.” – The Hollywood Reporter Oct 29, 2019 Full Review Get Shorty (1995) 89% EDIT “How cool can a mere movie be? A perfect cast and great script, based on a hilariously witty best seller, are key elements. When you add a talented director and let the magic of Hollywood take over, the result is Get Shorty.” – The Hollywood Reporter Oct 25, 2019 Full Review Men in Black (1997) 91% EDIT “A terrifically entertaining combination of alien conspiracy fears played for laughs and French Connection-meets-Ghostbusters thrills... Men in Black is so much fun one is actually mildly disappointed when it ends after an economically short 98 minutes.” – The Hollywood Reporter Jul 2, 2019 Full Review Speed (1994) 95% EDIT “There should be traffic jams at the box office as Fox picks up many busloads of riders for its fast and furiously entertaining thriller Speed.” – The Hollywood Reporter Jun 10, 2019 Full Review 10 Things I Hate About You (1999) 72% EDIT “[Stiles] is quite successful in the role and well-matched with Ledger.” – The Hollywood Reporter Apr 8, 2019 Full Review Shakespeare in Love (1998) 92% EDIT “In a little more than two hours, director John Madden, screenwriters Marc Norman and Tom Stoppard and a terrific cast and crew accomplish the miraculous.” – The Hollywood Reporter Dec 18, 2018 Full Review Fargo (1996) 94% EDIT “[Frances] McDormand is excellent and has a lot of fun with her tenacious and competent character, who is dedicated to duty and her sweet, supportive husband.” – The Hollywood Reporter Mar 19, 2018 Full Review Bottle Rocket (1996) 86% EDIT “The performers look like they're having a lot of fun, but there is a great deal of skill on display.” – The Hollywood Reporter Feb 21, 2018 Full Review From Dusk Till Dawn (1996) 66% EDIT “[Robert] Rodriguez pushes the envelope but fails to make any lasting impression except revulsion at the spectacle of acclaimed independent filmmakers wasting their talents on such trash.” – The Hollywood Reporter Jan 19, 2018 Full Review The Matrix (1999) 83% EDIT “A technologically stunning movie that furthers the genre and features crowd-pleasing performances to go with the frequent scenes of gunplay and violence.” – The Hollywood Reporter Oct 3, 2015 Full Review Mission: Impossible (1996) 67% EDIT “Mission: Impossible starts off on shaky ground and never quite rights itself. ” – The Hollywood Reporter Jun 18, 2009 Full Review Romeo Is Bleeding (1993) 28% EDIT “Stylistic but ultimately unsatisfying.” – The Hollywood Reporter Apr 9, 2008 Full Review Stanley Kubrick: A Life in Pictures (2001) 86% EDIT “Engaging but decidedly less than earth-shattering.” – The Hollywood Reporter Oct 2, 2007 Full Review Anthem (1997) 80% EDIT “This is a documentary that could easily have been overly self-indulgent or fashionably irreverent but instead appeals to one's intelligence and provides glimpses of a dynamic country cruising peacefully toward the millennium.” – The Hollywood Reporter Sep 24, 2007 Full Review The Dogwalker (2002) 54% EDIT “Rather than being self-indulgent or pretentious, however, the film comes up with many believable details and changes in direction that enrich the bittersweet central relationship of the two leads.” – The Hollywood Reporter Aug 25, 2006 Full Review Happy Here and Now (2002) 50% EDIT “The future is quieter, emotionally subdued and grayly mysterious, at least in the small hop forward imagined by filmmaker Michael Almereyda.” – The Hollywood Reporter Dec 16, 2005 Full Review
