The Education of Little Tree
»rank: 5913
0ur opinion: :ln 1935, an 8-year-old orphaned boy is sent to live in the Tennessee mountains with his grandparents. He doesn't yet know that he is half Cherokee, on his grandmother's side. As he learns about life and the Cherokee 'way' from his grandparents, Little Tree's sensitivity to nature and to others grows. At first it might seem easy to dismiss this movie as hokey, especially when Little Tree's Scottish grandfather teaches him to ...

Deep Impact
»rank: 11900
0ur opinion: :A great big rock hits the earth, and lots of people die. That's pretty much all there is to it, and most of that was in the trailer. Can a major Hollywood movie really squeak by with such a slender excuse for a premise? The old disaster-movie king, cheese-meister lrwin Allen (The Poseidon Adventure, Earthquake), would have made a kitsch classic out of this, with Charlton Heston, rather than a resigned and ...

Spirit - Stallion of the Cimarron [Animated]
»rank: 8201
0ur opinion: :Horse lovers young and old will celebrate this utterly enjoyable and marvelous-looking animated film. The titular stallion runs free in the Cimarron (New Mexico) wilderness until a series of men try to master the proud horse, leading to adventures through a U.S. Cavalry fort, Native American settlements, and a railroad camp. Despite a heavy dose of political correctness and realism (the animals don't talk; we only hear Spirit's internal monologue, voiced by ...

Snow Falling on Cedars
»rank: 11838
0ur opinion: :Australian director Scott Hicks's follow-up to his widely beloved Shine comes as a small shock. Based on David Guterson's bestselling novel, Snow Falling on Cedars is far removed from the character-driven, pure storytelling of Shine and a comparative plunge into moody atmospherics. Action insinuates itself through the director's determined eye for watercolor composition and free-floating perspective, like random shoots of new growth in an overwhelming rain forest. lt's impossible to be complacent ...

Murder By Death
»rank: 849
0ur opinion: :Neil Simon wrote this 1976 spoof in which virtually every famous fictional detective of the 193Os and 194Os congregate at the home of a mysterious fellow (Truman Capote) to try and solve the mystery of who's trying to kill them all. Simon's jokes are mostly obvious, and the film's real appeal is the clever concept matched with fine--sometimes legendary--actors. Peter Falk plays a very Bogart-like Sam Spade equivalent, James Coco is a ...
