3/5
EDIT
“The talking pig is amusingly oinkish, but for most of the time the film has all the eerie fascination of a freak show - with Pee-wee as the main exhibit.” –

Frantic (1988)

4/5
EDIT
“It's a Hitchcockian idea, but Polanski embellishes it with his own baleful theme about the uneasy nature of human existence, which is given added tension by Ennio Morricone's dramatic score.” –

“Outstandingly well played by Sigourney Weaver and Ben Kingsley, the effective three-hander succeeds because of a dreadful electricity sparking between the two leads, while Stuart Wilson, as her husband, tries not to get burned. ” –

“Charles Burnett's story of a black family settled in Los Angeles from the South is an engrossing study of conflicts in black America. Danny Glover has never been better.” –

3/5
EDIT
“Stridency, both vocal and visual, is all, and Roger Daltrey's Tommy is flattened by the weight of celebrity (Eric Clapton, Keith Moon, Jack Nicholson and Tina Turner), but it's still worth watching just for its reputation. ” –
