Tomato 4/5 |
Scream and Scream Again (1969) |
"A marvelous combination horror film and spy film" |
|
Tomato 4/5 |
Second Best (1995) |
"William Hurt portrays an unmarried Welsh postmaster who decides to adopt a child after his own parents pass away. Both he and the boy he is assigned have psychological scars, and the gradual revelation of these inner pains is what fuels the plot, but the" |

Tomato 4/5 |
Secret of Roan Inish (1995) |
"A beautifully told faerie tale" |
|
Tomato 3/5 |
Seven Days in May (1964) |
"Based upon a potboiling bestseller novel, Frankenheimer brings an artistic sense to the film, but he can only take it so far." |
|
Tomato 3/5 |
Shanghai Triad (1995) |
"the characters are reasonably interesting and the plot has sufficient drama to entertain" |
|
Tomato 4/5 |
Sheena (1984) |
"Except for a poorly madeup horse who is supposed to be a trained zebra, everyone in the cast gives believable performances and the action is logical and well paced." |
|
Tomato 4/5 |
Shock Corridor (1963) |
"Filmed in Fuller's cigar-in-your-face style, it is a sober but deeply satirical depiction of a modern asylum, in which the patients are clearly intended to remind one of various American political and social philosophies." |
|
Tomato 5/5 |
The Shop Around the Corner (1940) |
"One of the all-time great romantic films stars Jimmy Stewart and Margaret Sullavan as two slightly antagonistic clerks working in the same store who do not realize they have been corresponding with one another and are in love." |
|
Splat 2/5 |
Song of the Thin Man (1947) |

Tomato 4/5 |
Sorry, Wrong Number (1948) |
"The film’s basic premise is just too compelling to resist." |
|
Splat 2/5 |
Soylent Green (1973) |
"The film was a typical seventies sci-fi effort, scientifically illiterate and unimaginatively composed." |
|
Splat 2/5 |
The Star Chamber (1983) |
"While the movie is set in L.A., the rules of justice appear exaggerated to the point where the film seems to be taking place in a different country, but it doesn't really matter. It would be great fun just to put up your feet and watch director Peter Hyam" |
|
Tomato 3/5 |
Steel (1997) |
"an efficient concoction with some nice special effects (there is this sound wave gun that makes the air wiggle when it's shot) and an easy-to-follow plot, about stopping illegal weapons merchants. There are plenty of stunt sequences and futuristic gimmick" |
|
Tomato 3/5 |
The Stepfather (1987) |
" The Stepfather makes use of a classic fairy tale device--the false parent--but it turns out to have a powerful effect upon one's involvement with the characters." |

Tomato 3/5 |
Stripteaser (1994) |
"within the limited confines of its genre, it succeeds" |

Tomato 4/5 |
Subspecies (1991) |

Tomato 3/5 |
Sweet Hearts Dance (1988) |
"Not only is the cast terrific, but there is a conscious attempt to evoke the feel of the season" |
|
Tomato 4/5 |
Swiss Family Robinson (1960) |
"The escapist atmosphere is still difficult to resist." |
