Reviews

Title	Year	Rating	Rank	Review
Star Wars IV: A New Hope	1977	100	1	(full review)
Babe	1995	95	2	(full review) - Don’t be fooled, Babe is one of the best family fun adventures featuring, great performances and voicing, a screenplay that touches on the themes it wants to very well, and pulls a lot of heart string, while providing enough fun for the whole family.
Being John Malkovich	1999	95	2	(full review)
Lord of the Rings: Return of the King	2003	95	2	(full review)
Ratatouille	2007	95	2	(full review)
Beauty and the Beast	1991	90	6	(full review) - Beauty and the Beast is a beautiful and true-tale about love, acceptance, and the real person within humans. However, the beautiful animation, and musical numbers still work, and are just about as fresh as they were 20 years ago.
Donnie Darko	2001	90	6	(full review) - Writer/Director Richard’s Kelly debut feature may lose it’s head with the mind-bending elements, but it has a perfect script, great performances, and a story that goes places you won’t be expecting, and won’t be disappointed in seeing anyway.
Evil Dead II	1987	90	6	(full review) - I went back-and-forth on whether or not I should have given this movie an 8.5 or 9, and I just realized that the whole-time, I continued to smile and smile throughout and it’s exactly what I wanted in a horror flick. Pure fun, pure campiness, and pure, over-the-top, goofiness that never steps into serious territory.
Lord of the Rings: Two Towers	2002	90	6	(full review) - The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers is the second-installment that hits, and hits hard with enough emotions, action, and characters running through, that you feel like you have a full grip and feel of this story, what’s happening in it, and what’s to come of it in it’s grand, epic finale. Return of the King, here I come!
Mandy	2018	90	6	(full review)
Monsters Inc	2001	90	6	(full review)
Scott Pilgrim vs The World	2010	90	6	(full review)
Spider-Man	2002	90	6	(full review)
Spider-Man 2	2004	90	6	(full review)
Star Wars V: Empire Strikes Back	1980	90	6	(full review)
Star Wars: The Last Jedi	2017	90	6	(full review)
X2: X-Men United	2003	90	6	(full review) - Despite some plot holes, X2 is a total improvement from the first showing a lot more action, special effects, and a more deeper and darker story-line that will take you by storm (pun intended) and won’t let you go until the credits are up.
Beetlejuice	1988	85	18	(full review)
Big	1988	85	18	(full review)
Cabin in the Woods, The	2011	85	18	(full review) - The Cabin in the Woods is definitely one of the funnest horror movies to come out in some time with it’s twisty and unpredictable writing, tongue-in-cheek humor that works, and a whole fun feel to it that will definitely not disappoint anyone whether or not you like horror movies.
Curious Case of Benjamin Button, The	2008	85	18	(full review)
Doctor Strange	2016	85	18	(full review)
Fly, The	1986	85	18	(full review) - The Fly is a little too over-the-top at points, but David Cronenberg perfectly mashes all of these different elements of romance, drama, and horror as well as a great leading role from Jeff Goldblum to give is a disgusting but emotionally well-told film.
Ghostbusters	1984	85	18	(full review) - Ghostbusters is the classic that I always imagined it being even when I was still running around in my little Spider-Man undies. It’s funny, original, exciting, and perfectly-delivered by the likes of Bill Murray, Dan Aykroyd, Harold Ramis and many many others.
Heaven Can Wait	1978	85	18	(full review)
How To Train Your Dragon	2010	85	18	(full review) - Although not as memorable as other animated films that have came out in the past couple of years, How To Train Your Dragon still impresses with its great story, that has effective emotional depth, and enchanting visuals, that keep you watching.
Lord of the Rings: Fellowship of the Ring	2001	85	18	(full review)
Midnight in Paris	2011	85	18	(full review)
Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl	2003	85	18	(full review)
The Purple Rose of Cairo	1985	85	18	(full review)
Wonder Woman	2017	85	18	(full review)
X-Men: Days of Future Past	2014	85	18	(full review)
X-Men: First Class	2011	85	18	(full review)
A Monster Calls	2016	80	34	(full review)
Army of Darkness	1992	80	34	(full review)
Avatar	2009	80	34	(full review) - Avatar has beautifully enchanting visuals, very effective performances, and an exciting if done before story, that has us forgetting about the real world we live in, with such a beautiful way.
Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon	2003	80	34	(full review)
Elf	2003	80	34	(full review)
Harvey	1950	80	34	(full review)
Hellboy	2004	80	34	(full review)
How to Train Your Dragon 2	2014	80	34	(full review)

LEGO Movie, The	2014	80	34	(full review)
Pete's Dragon	2016	80	34	(full review)
Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Mans Chest (2006)	2006	80	34	(full review)
Star Wars III: Revenge of the Sith	2005	80	34	(full review)
Star Wars: Episode VII - The Force Awakens	2015	80	34	(full review)
Superman	1978	80	34	(full review)
Superman Returns	2006	80	34	(full review) - With an extra bit of attention to the heart and soul of its title character, Superman Returns works both as a silly, yet exciting superhero flick, as well as a tender look at the loneliness these kinds of characters embody.
The Jungle Book	2016	80	34	(full review)
The Shape of Water	2017	80	34	(full review)
Wreck-It Ralph	2012	80	34	(full review)
Batman (Keaton)	1989	75	55	(full review) - Though it isn’t as emotionally involving as you would expect from such a dark and atmospheric superhero flick such as this, Batman benefits from some beautiful set-pieces from Tim Burton, great performances from Nicholson and Keaton, and some fun summer blockbuster entertainment to hold you over.
Coco	2017	75	55	(full review)
Hellboy II: The Golden Army	2008	75	55	(full review)
Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey, The (2012)	2012	75	55	(full review) - Though Jackson does tread in familiar-territory that we all know what to expect and get out of an experience like his return to Middle Earth, The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey is still fun and entertaining to watch, even if the whole idea of being filmed in 48fps can get a bit tiresome over time. After awhile, you do begin to get used to it but in my opinion, to avoid any distractions to the human-eye whatsoever, just give this baby a whirl in 3D, or regular 2D, especially if you want to save some moolah.
Man of Steel	2013	75	55	(full review)
Mary Poppins Returns	2018	75	55	(full review)
Pan's Labyrinth	2006	75	55	(full review)

Thor: Ragnarok	2017	75	55	(full review)
Aquaman	2018	70	66	(full review)
Black Panther	2018	70	66	(full review)
Fifth Element, The	1997	70	66	(full review) - The overall look, pacing, and feel of this movie has you laughing and having a good time, but The Fifth Element fails to go that full mile when it’s script starts to fall apart by the last act.
Green Mile, The	1999	70	66	(full review)
Illusionist, The (2006)	2006	70	66	(full review)
Jupiter Ascending	2015	70	66	(full review)

The Zero Theorem	2013	70	66	(full review)
Cinderella	2015	65	80	(full review)
Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs	2009	65	80	(full review) - The movie changes into some unnecessary areas, but still features beautiful looking cinematography, and enough slapstick, quirky humor, and fun for the whole family to enjoy.
Constantine	2005	65	80	(full review)
Dogma	1999	65	80	(full review)
Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them	2016	65	80	(full review)
Hercules	2014	65	80	(full review)
Holy Motors	2012	65	80	(full review)
Horns	2013	65	80	(full review)
Immortals	2011	65	80	(full review) - Visionary director Tarsem Singh brings so many colorful, vibrant, beautiful, and larger-than-life sets to this film that it almost makes Immortals feel like some sort of dream filled with bloody and fun action, but also a lame script and long moments of boredom in between all of the slashing and killing.
Mystery Men	1999	65	80	(full review)
Star Wars II: Attack of the Clones	2002	65	80	(full review)
The BFG	2016	65	80	(full review)

About Time	2013	55	105	(full review)
Beautiful Creatures (2013)	2013	55	105	(full review)
Big Trouble in Little China	1986	55	105	(full review) - Though it is of course dated in many places, Big Trouble in Little China has some awesome and just fun action sequences, with writing that doesn’t take itself too seriously so therefore nobody else should whoever wants to see this one.
Fright Night (2011)	2011	55	105	(full review)
Star Wars VI: Return of the Jedi	1983	55	105	(full review)
Amazing Spider-Man, The	2012	50	110	(full review) - The Amazing Spider-Man is exactly what you come to expect from a superhero flick: fun, action-packed, wild and crazy set pieces, baddies doing bad things, goodies doing good things, romantic love story, and some little shots of humor to liven everything up. Problem is, this is a reboot of a series that has already had its movies, and were ones that still stay stuck in my mind no matter what.
Bright	2017	50	110	(full review)
Clash of the Titans (2010)	2010	50	110	(full review)
Green Lantern	2011	50	110
Hotel Transylvania	2012	50	110	(full review) - Even though it is your typical, kiddie fare with jokes that will have them howling, Hotel Transylvania is still a fun and entertaining flick with a great look of animation, interesting story, and a voice cast that handles all of their material well.
Jonah Hex (2010 live action)	2010	50	110	(full review)
Maleficent	2014	50	110	(full review)
The Mummy	2017	50	110	(full review)
Warcraft	2016	50	110	(full review)
Wrath of the Titans	2012	50	110	(full review)
X-Men: The Last Stand	2006	50	110	(full review)
Cowboys & Aliens	2011	45	121	(full review) - Though it promised so much more, Cowboys & Aliens has some good action sequences and gives us what we see in the title, but suffers from writing that doesn’t bring anything new to the table and brings us constant cliches, bad one-liners, and an overall feel of disappointment because we know this could have been so much more wild than what we got. You got Han Solo and James Bond loading up their guns looking to shoot some aliens, how hard could it have been!?!?
Star Wars I: Phantom Menace	1999	45	121	(full review)
X-Men Origins: Wolverine	2009	45	121	(full review)
Dark Shadows	2012	40	124	(full review) - Definitely has some moments that are funny and very cool to look at, but as a whole, squanders a original premise with annoying jokes, loses its comedic edge with it’s semi-serious tone, and lets a great ensemble cast like this, do nothing other than play second-fiddle to the Tim Burton and Johnny Depp freak show.
Mirror Mirror	2012	40	124	(full review)
Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children	2016	40	124	(full review)
Winter's Tale	2014	40	124	(full review)
Coraline	2009	35	128	(full review) - Coraline may look good, but it’s stretch of the PG rating, and deep, dark story, just adds on worse to the slow pace.
Red Riding Hood	2011	25	129	(full review)
The Cobbler	2014	25	129	(full review)
Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald	2018	20	131	(full review)
Lady in the Water	2006	20	131	(full review)
G Force	2009	15	133	(full review) - This movie is crap, and barely even a good family movie.
Intruders	2011	10	134	(full review)
Last Airbender, The (2010)	2010	10	134	(full review)
Yoga Hosers	2016	10	134	(full review)
