The American President (1995) 90% 3.5/4 EDIT “The American President is a first-rate film. It's not perfect, but it gets my vote as the prime candidate for success this coming holiday season.” – Pittsburgh Post-Gazette Jan 20, 2026 Full Review The Sure Thing (1985) 84% EDIT “It presents its young characters as people with minds, not just appetites, and any move in that direction is certainly welcome. ” – Pittsburgh Post-Gazette Jan 8, 2026 Full Review The Princess Bride (1987) 93% B EDIT “The Princess Bride is an imaginative, irreverent and delightfully silly movie. It also makes it impossible to peg Reiner, or predict what he will make next. But it proves that he makes his films from the heart, and that's the secret to his success.” – Pittsburgh Post-Gazette Jan 7, 2026 Full Review Big Top Pee-wee (1988) 31% C+ EDIT “It's not quite as good as "Pee-Wee's Big Adventure," but it comes in a close second.” – Pittsburgh Post-Gazette Dec 13, 2025 Full Review The Terminator (1984) 90% EDIT “In many ways, it's better than the average Charles Bronson action pic. There is imagination at work here, and a sly sense of what will make the action audience cheer with appreciation. ” – Pittsburgh Post-Gazette Dec 8, 2025 Full Review The Running Man (1987) 59% B- EDIT “"The Running Man" is terrific fun and an ace example of the action film at its most sophisticated. ” – Pittsburgh Post-Gazette Nov 6, 2025 Full Review Predator 2 (1990) 36% EDIT “It's a fast-paced action film with enough style to make it above average.” – Pittsburgh Post-Gazette Oct 31, 2025 Full Review Predator (1987) 64% D EDIT “The gore is plentiful, right down to the flayed bodies hanging from trees. What's missing is logic, not to mention anything complex enough to pass for a plot. ” – Pittsburgh Post-Gazette Oct 31, 2025 Full Review Dracula (1979) 64% EDIT “Ably directed by John Badham and lushly photographed by Gilbert Taylor, "Dracula" is a topnotch production.” – Pittsburgh Post-Gazette Oct 21, 2025 Full Review Desert Hearts (1985) 77% EDIT “An engrossing, funny and strangely haunting movie. ” – Pittsburgh Post-Gazette Oct 13, 2025 Full Review My Beautiful Laundrette (1985) 95% EDIT “A most riveting, satisfying and substantial movie. ” – Pittsburgh Post-Gazette Oct 10, 2025 Full Review Tron (1982) 60% EDIT “It succeeds in expanding the parameters of animation and in presenting something totally new on the screen.” – Pittsburgh Post-Gazette Oct 6, 2025 Full Review To Sleep With Anger (1990) 93% B EDIT “Burnett skillfully weaves his various story lines and characters together until the cumulative effect is an absolutely microscopic look at the nature of family life.” – Pittsburgh Post-Gazette Sep 25, 2025 Full Review Night of the Living Dead (1990) 57% B EDIT “The new "Night of the Living Dead" breathes life into the campy classic. And it emerges as a solid, very scary film in its own right.” – Pittsburgh Post-Gazette Sep 18, 2025 Full Review This Is Spinal Tap (1984) 98% EDIT “Excellent and amazingly dopey performances by the talented cast, and a wonderfully zany appreciation for the inherent humor of the whole rock scene makes the low-budget "This is Spinal Tap" a refreshing and tasteless spoof.” – Pittsburgh Post-Gazette Sep 9, 2025 Full Review Pee-wee's Big Adventure (1985) 78% EDIT “"Pee Wee's Big Adventure" is a beautifully made film in the old studio tradition.” – Pittsburgh Post-Gazette Jul 30, 2025 Full Review Babe (1995) 98% 3.5/4 EDIT “Director Chris Noonan, who co-wrote the screenplay with Miller, makes "Babe" a piece of pure whimsy. What's especially nice is that it isn't animated or heavily merchandised. It reeks of literature and fine wordsmanship...” – Pittsburgh Post-Gazette Jul 30, 2025 Full Review Waterworld (1995) 60% 3/4 EDIT “It's solid, entertaining adventure with enough humor to keep even the most menacing moments light. ” – Pittsburgh Post-Gazette Jul 28, 2025 Full Review The Naked Gun: From the Files of Police Squad! (1988) 88% B- EDIT “"The Naked Gun" is a very funny movie.” – Pittsburgh Post-Gazette Jul 24, 2025 Full Review Explorers (1985) 49% EDIT “Dante and Luke miscalculate by saving the best for last, and at nearly two hours, the film suffers because of the imbalance.” – Pittsburgh Post-Gazette Jul 10, 2025 Full Review Superman IV: The Quest for Peace (1987) 16% C+ EDIT “The latest Superman saga, directed by Sidney Furie, is anti-climatic and extremely rote at times.” – Pittsburgh Post-Gazette Jul 2, 2025 Full Review Jurassic Park (1993) 91% 4/4 EDIT “Jurassic Park is a monster movie in the truest, most classical sense. It builds to a thrilling crescendo, but underneath the slick entertainment is a serious point about the nature of creation. It's one that Spielberg makes sure we won't forget.” – Pittsburgh Post-Gazette Jul 1, 2025 Full Review The Lost World: Jurassic Park (1997) 57% 2.5/4 EDIT “This is the kind of shallow, showy movie Spielberg used to be accused of making before he redeemed himself with Schindler's List.” – Pittsburgh Post-Gazette Jun 30, 2025 Full Review Day of the Dead (1985) 61% EDIT “"Day of the Dead" is certainly not a film for everyone, but it's above average for the genre, and in Romero's hands, the novelty is still here.” – Pittsburgh Post-Gazette Jun 25, 2025 Full Review Apollo 13 (1995) 94% 3.5/4 EDIT “It's about time gone by, it's about ambitions we no longer have, it's about values we don't seem to value, and it's about heroes who are ordinary men. The best parts of this very human epic celebrate all that was good about America.” – Pittsburgh Post-Gazette Jun 25, 2025 Full Review
