Rotten 3/5	Rotten 50%	Star Trek: The Motion Picture (1979)	" Nothing in this first Trek film moves above a glacial speed." Posted Sep 11, 2001
Fresh 3/5	Fresh 69%	The Adventures of Felix (2001)	" While you may not guffaw long and loud, the film will get a laugh out of you at intervals and you're rarely without a smile." Posted Jun 6, 2001
Fresh 4/5	Fresh 98%	Annie Hall (1977)	" It's a slight story but what makes this film significant in Allen's long career is that it's really the first time he wrote adult characters." Posted Apr 17, 2001
Fresh 4/5	Fresh 91%	When Harry Met Sally... (1989)	" The writing and direction plays with the [romantic comedy] form and your expectations alike throughout, and with such good performances the film makes for a deliciously prickly ride with laugh-out-loud moments and scenes that resonate through the story." Posted Apr 17, 2001
Fresh 4/5	Fresh 95%	The Princess Bride (1987)	" Children can see it as a bright, frothy adventure while adults will appreciate the subtlety and the sheer wit." Posted Apr 17, 2001
Fresh 3/5	Fresh 80%	Sneakers (1992)	" This is an energetic, fun, almost enchanting thriller with genuine moments of tension and a good few thrills too." Posted Apr 17, 2001
Fresh 3/5	Fresh 76%	The Mask (1994)	" Exuberant fun." Posted Apr 17, 2001
Rotten 1/5	Rotten 18%	The Flintstones (1994)	" It's just a series of nicely shot and over-bright sets with the cast blocking your view of the background." Posted Apr 17, 2001
Fresh 3/5	Fresh 71%	The Fifth Element (1997)	" Bruce Willis is good in an average role, Milla Jovovich is acceptable in a terrible role, but as ever Gary Oldman is terrific in how he seems to find just the right note for the film and threatens to take it over." Posted Apr 17, 2001
Fresh 4/5	Fresh 97%	Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon (1999)	" You may never see a more beautiful movie - and certainly no more majestic film has yet been made." Posted Apr 16, 2001
N/A	Fresh 83%	Stuart Little 2 (2002)	" Minkoff says that this is why he's making the sequel, that he wants to use what he learned from the first one." Posted Mar 27, 2001
Fresh 4/5	Fresh 88%	In the Mood for Love (2001)	" A beautifully-tailored, low key (but always dramatic) story." Posted Feb 7, 2001
Fresh 5/5	Fresh 96%	Back to the Future (1985)	" It's undeniably formulaic but so outstandingly executed that it vindicates the formula." Posted Jan 1, 2000
Fresh 4/5	Fresh 63%	Back to the Future Part II (1989)	" The idea and the execution is so good that you could applaud." Posted Jan 1, 2000

Fresh 3/5	Fresh 86%	Chariots of Fire (1981)	" Now, 20 years later, it's dated. In some ways that actually benefits the film as its true age somehow helps its 1920s setting but other aspects suffer." Posted Jan 1, 2000
Rotten 2/5	Rotten 43%	Cherry Falls (2000)	" It becomes a balance between gory and very silly." Posted Jan 1, 2000
Fresh 5/5	Fresh 98%	Chicken Run (2000)	" *It's The Great Escape* as performed by chickens and is every bit as good as you could imagine.**" Posted Jan 1, 2000
Fresh 4/5	Fresh 81%	Love and Basketball (2000)	" A little treat of a tale that is exciting, touching and even moving." Posted Jan 1, 2000
Fresh 4/5	Rotten 56%	Mission: Impossible (1996)	" A superior story." Posted Jan 1, 2000

Rotten 2/5	Fresh 65%	Stuart Little (1999)	" This is really a series of set pieces with the logic of seeing what scrapes the makers can get Stuart into next." Posted Jan 1, 2000
Fresh 4/5	Fresh 87%	Tootsie (1982)	" It's jaunty, witty, and somehow satisfying despite being simple." Posted Jan 1, 2000
