The Deer Hunter (1978) Richard Corliss It grabs you by the lapel and says, "Call me masterpiece!"... These weaknesses are The Deer Hunter's greatest strength -- because, in a year of timid moviemaking, they trumpet the film's daring to fail at being great.

Annie Hall (1977) Richard Corliss We have to stop and remind ourselves here that Annie Hall is not only the strangulated murmur of a neurotic urban heart: it is also a movie. Of various and satisfying kinds.

Up! (1976) Richard Corliss For most of its lo-o-ong 80 minutes the movie goes off in all directions -- and never gets anywhere.

The Shootist (1976) Richard Corliss Wayne is still both kinds of moving -- it’s the movie that’s sclerotic.

The Outlaw Josey Wales (1976) Richard Corliss Eastwood, his fifth time around as director, shows he can handle actors, especially John Vernon (as the tracker) and Chief Dan George. And he surely knows how to direct himself, playing his galvanizing sexiness against his grizzled sense of humor.

The Return of a Man Called Horse (1976) Richard Corliss The movie code board has rated Return PG -- which means it’s fine to take your kid along, especially if he enjoys torturing hamsters for scientific purposes.

Drum (1976) Richard Corliss [Every character] is drawn in caricatures broad enough to do a pay-toilet artist proud.

Marathon Man (1976) Richard Corliss Marathon Man is kitsch of a pretty high order. And it dips effectively into the slightly-frayed, but still-full, bag of suspense-movie tricks.

The California Reich (1975) Richard Corliss [Filmmakers Walter F. Parkes and Keith F. Critchlow] won the trust of the Nazis, who unconsciously insist on acting out Hannah Arendt’s theory about ‘‘the banality of evil.’’ But the film itself is anything but banal.

The Man Who Fell to Earth (1976) Richard Corliss The Man Who Fell to Earth winds up looking like a Carnaby Street commercial for alienation.

The Tenant (1976) Richard Corliss A few years ago, Polanski made.an enjoyably bizarre movie in Carlo Ponti’s villa, and called it What? His new movie, not unbearable but simply insubstantial, could be called So What?

The Last Woman (1976) Richard Corliss There are times when the movie seems to have been going on for a month.

Autumn Sonata (1978) Richard Corliss The film is so unrelenting, so harrowing, that I walked out of the theater on shaking legs. If you're open to the experience that Bergman means to provide, you may leave the film muttering a wrung-out "Whew!" followed quickly by an appreciative "Wow!"

Days of Heaven (1978) Richard Corliss Malick has controlled the film so precisely that an even slightly abrupt camera movement can produce a greater effect than any Peckinpah bloodbath.
