BabyJane’s Film Reviews
31 Films have been rated or reviewed by BabyJane.
Pride and Prejudice (1940)
Not a bad effort, but so much of the story is omitted that it left me feeling a bit cheated. Garson and Olivier are solid in the leads.
Pollyanna (1960)
I loved this as a child of the 60s and still find it utterly charming. Yes, it is schmaltzy, but children's films can be forgiven that. It ends a bit abruptly though.
Lost in Paris (Paris pieds nus) (2016)
- Loved this – reminiscent of a Wes Anderson movie. One for the underdogs.
- DVD $29.95
Touch of Evil, A (1958)-
Talk to Her (2002)
Strange, beautiful film, with themes I've never seen before. Loved it.
This Is Spinal Tap (1984)- Brilliant spoof – must be one of the first ever mockumentaries. I missed it when it first came out but it stands the test of time really well. Michael McKean rules!
Poseidon Adventure, The (1972)- I loved this so much when I was 11 I saw it 4 times at the cinema. Absolute classic disaster movie. The Titanic of its day.
Patrick (1978)- Scared the living daylights out of me back in the day (I saw it on the big screen). I still think of it when I take a lift...
Bright Young Things (2003)
An appalling piece of directing by Stephen Fry. I think it put him off for good. The story has no rhythm or pace and the characters seem one dimensional; a horrible mess. You can only just see the bones of the story it is based on.
Wrong Man, The (1956)
I gather the critics loved this but it was a box office flop and I agree with the audiences. 101 minutes of Henry Fonda looking bewildered was way too much. There's just not enough story to save it.
