"Good clean family fun even as the ultimate Oedipal wish." |

Splat 2.5/4 |
Back to the Future Part II (1989) |
"The film ultimately relies on too many cheesy make-up routines in which characters play their older (and female!) selves which makes it not exactly the best movie in this series." |
James O'Ehley |
Tomato 3/4 |
Back to the Future Part III (1990) |
"It manages to recapture the sense of fun that made the first Back to the Future so memorable and enjoyable." |
James O'Ehley |
Tomato 2.5/4 |
Barb Wire (1996) |
"It is, after all, a comic book come to life (it's based on the Dark Horse comic series) and doesn't pretend to be about anything more than that." |
James O'Ehley |
Splat 2/4 |
Barbarella (1968) |
"It is an extravagant exercise in bad taste and camp. While it tries to intentionally funny, some of the humour merely falls flat on its face." |
James O'Ehley |
Tomato 4/4 |
Batman (1989) |
"Tim Burton's Batman manages to avoid all the potholes that the Batman story might have strewn in the way of an unwary filmmaker and he manages to avoid them all with aplomb." |

Battlestar Galactica (1978) |

Battlestar Galactica - Season 1 (2004) |

Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure (1989) |
