It is incredible how many terrible films that Robin Williams made. The good films that he did make were those that did not allow him to do his standup schtick/ imitations in the middle of the movie.
It would be interesting to see how these guys would react to how awful the movies have gotten if they were still around today. They would probably have a field day with all of the garbage Disney has put out over the last 5 to 10 years.
It's ironic how they're trashing Robin Williams movies when in a few short months he would win an Academy Award for best supporting actor in Good Will hunting
Most of the films shown here look awful courtesy of the videotape 90s. They look nothing like the quality you would have gotten going to the cinema. They were served so badly here.
I never saw Year of the Horse but it makes sense to me that even the greatest documentation would be unable to produce substantial interviews with Neil Young. He is so famously camera-shy that even though he performed with Crosby, Stills, and Nash at Woodstock, they cropped him out of the footage so most people don't know he was there at all.
I’m glad these two not reviewing movie anymore . They only give thum up to boring drama movie but thum down on any action / horror movie . The jackal was good.
If S&E were alive reviewing films today, I'm positive theyd hate 9/10 of the superhero and Disney trash being released and costing $300mill+, and as a testament to how wretched, despicable and sexually confused this current American pseudo-society has become, they'd be accused to death of being racist, bigoted, hateful, and sexist simply for calling a spade a spade.
I don't always agree with him, but one of the reviewers I like to watch now is Mark Kermode from the UK. He is a huge fan of one of my favorite movies, Local Hero, and did a piece about the movie in which he interviews the director.
I actually liked Whispers In The Dark - I think I have the VHS tape somewhere still too. If you can bring yourself to turn it off when the Alda scenes are more towards the end, it's a clever erotic thriller. But they're right, the Alda as the killer was very stupid and a let down of a surprise.
I think part of the problem with current cinema, along with gross negligence and far too much attention to agendas, is that we don't have greats like Siskel and Ebert tearing apart stinkers like these.
