dr.strangelove’s Film Reviews

215 Films have been rated or reviewed by dr.strangelove.

Jurassic Park (1993): One of the movies in which the special effects have really convinced me such things can exist now.
Hook (1991): The story is kind–off corny but still enjoyable, and Robin Williams plays the role of future–Peter well.
Close Encounters of the Third Kind - Special Edition (1977): Cleverly focuses on humans in the human–alien relationship.
Stanley Kubrick - A Life in Pictures (2001): Offers many insights into the life and career of this artist
Shining, The (1980): The intensity this creates in incredible. It is proof that clever use of music and camerawork can create a much more frightening atmosphere than just gore. Also, The Making of the Shining is the best making–of ever.; DVD ~~$19.95~~ $14.95
District 9 (2009): Although it seems to tackle Apartheid on the surface, this clever sci–fi seems more pre–occupied with the issues of immigration and racism in general. Sort of like Moon not actually being about the future issue of helium–3 mining.; DVD ~~$19.95~~ $14.95
Titanic (1997): Boring and over the top.; DVD ~~$40~~ $30
Godfather, The (1972)
Godfather Part 2, The (1974): DVD ~~$19.95~~ $14.95
Transformers - Revenge Of The Fallen (Transformers 2) (2009): Appalling. One of the worst movies I have ever seen. To be fair, I did stop watching half way through. Oh wait, that was because it sucked.
