- DirectorSergei EisensteinStarsGrigoriy AleksandrovMaksim ShtraukhMikhail GomorovA group of oppressed factory workers go on strike in pre-revolutionary Russia.Strike. Sergei Eisenstein. First half 7, last half 9, last 10 minutes 10. Rating: 8
- DirectorAlfred HitchcockStarsTeresa WrightJoseph CottenMacdonald CareyA teenage girl, overjoyed when her favorite uncle comes to visit the family in their quiet California town, slowly begins to suspect that he is in fact the "Merry Widow" killer sought by the authorities.Alfred Hitchcock. Contrary to what I believe is most peoples opinion I must admit that I found it rather boring to be honest. Still a decent film.. 7
- StarsJens AlbinusMarina BourasSteen Stig LommerAs more crimes and criminals cross borders, the Danish police creates an international criminal investigation team. The half Icelandic "Ørnen" leads the diverse team of 6. The latest technology (2004-6) is used.My sister stars in 2 episodes as the wife of Columbian drugdealer Michael Carøe :P
The action sequences in this series are spectacular and outstanding in how poor they are. The acting is fine. 6 - CreatorStephen J. CannellPatrick HasburghStarsJohnny DeppDustin NguyenPeter DeLuiseThe cases of an undercover police unit composed of young-looking officers specializing in youth crime.I loved this as a kid. 6
- CreatorTom PatchettPaul FuscoStarsMihaly 'Michu' MeszarosPaul FuscoMax WrightWhen an ugly creature, who loves eating cats, crash-lands into the Tanner family's garage, they treat him as a guest and allow him to live with them as he comments on the stupidity of mankind.An alien with an 80's American humor keeps an suburbian family's hands full. Sucks that he never got to eat the damn cat though. Lasted 4 seasons. 6
- CreatorMike BarkerSeth MacFarlaneMatt WeitzmanStarsSeth MacFarlaneWendy SchaalScott GrimesThe escapades of Stan Smith, a conservative C.I.A. Agent dealing with family life, and keeping America safe.From the creators of Family Guy. Takes the piss on "official" American patriotism. 7
- StarsAl PacinoMeryl StreepEmma ThompsonSeveral disparate but connected individuals go through the AIDS crisis in the mid-1980s.Despite Al Pacino, Meryl Streep and a truckload of hype, this somewhat selfrightous series can't lift it self higher than a 6 on my scale ;)
- StarsBrian PattersonSøren Hauch-FausbøllMorten EisnerClassic children's show starring Bamse and his friends Kylling and Ælling. In each episodes Bamse's picture book (Bamses billedbog) serves as the source for an interstellar story.From back in the day where Danish public television made some of the best shows for kids with eye-to-eye communication ruled. 9
- StarsScott GrimesDamian LewisRon LivingstonThe story of Easy Company of the U.S. Army 101st Airborne Division and their mission in World War II Europe, from Operation Overlord to V-J Day.Appearently Saving Private Ryan wasn’t enough. This well produced tv series about Americans in WW2 never quite got it’s hooks in me. 7
- CreatorGlen A. LarsonRonald D. MooreStarsEdward James OlmosMary McDonnellJamie BamberWhen an old enemy, the Cylons, resurface and obliterate the 12 colonies, the crew of the aged Galactica protect a small civilian fleet - the last of humanity - as they journey toward the fabled 13th colony, Earth.Started out fine, but then turned into to Bold and the Beautiful. 5
- CreatorRon KoslowStarsRon PerlmanRoy DotriceJay AcovoneThe adventures and romance of a sensitive and cultured lion-man and a crusading assistant district attorney in Manhattan, New York City.I never knew until recently that it was Ron Perlman who played Vincent. He was skinny then. Loved it back then, though I am not sure that it has withstood the test of time (and me getting older). 6
- CreatorMatt NixStarsJeffrey DonovanGabrielle AnwarBruce CampbellA spy recently disavowed by the U.S. government uses his special ops training to help others in trouble.A spy is not a spy anymore because he was blacklisted. Takes place in Miami. A b-series, but kinda OK, especially the heavenly gorgeous Gabrielle Anwar is good as the semi-femme fatale :) The mother charater is hugely annoyting though, but luckily you can skip through her parts as they are rather irrelevant to the plotlines. 7
- CreatorJames BurrowsGlen CharlesLes CharlesStarsTed DansonRhea PerlmanJohn RatzenbergerThe regulars of the Boston bar "Cheers" share their experiences and lives with each other while drinking or working at the bar where everybody knows your name.One of the great shows of the 80s. Pretty much everything was filmed on the one set. One of the reasons it got quite boring I guess. 7
- CreatorLarry DavidStarsLarry DavidCheryl HinesJeff GarlinLarry David stars as an over-the-top version of himself in this comedy series that shows how seemingly trivial details of day-to-day life can precipitate a catastrophic chain of events.This is the shown which "Klovn" rippeed off completely. Which is fine. Unless you receive an award for "best original manuscript". 8
- StarsDrew ForsytheGeorgie ParkerAdam GilchristAnimated talkshow host. Australian. Just saw a few clips and they were funny. Especially the one where he rips apart David Hasselhoff. "Did you know that Hoff means hope in German?!? How ironic is that??!" :P 7
- CreatorDavid MilchStarsTimothy OlyphantIan McShaneMolly ParkerA show set in the late 1800s, revolving around the characters of Deadwood, South Dakota; a town of deep corruption and crime.Western. Acclaimed tv-show. Not by me... 4
- CreatorMatthew CarnahanStarsCourteney CoxIan HartJosh StewartA tabloid editor and her photographer try to make their way in the world of celebrity journalism.Rachel, or whatever her name is, Courtney Love or something plays a bitchy journalist with a heart of gold.. Not interested. 5
- CreatorMichael CrichtonStarsAnthony EdwardsGeorge ClooneyJulianna MarguliesThe doctors who work in the ER at the County General Hospital in Chicago grapple with ups and downs in their personal and professional lives while trying to give apt medical care to their patients.An seemingly endless series about an emergency room. Good things have come of it, like George Clooney, but that's about it I think. 6
- CreatorGary David GoldbergStarsMichael J. FoxMichael GrossMeredith BaxterChronicles liberal ex-hippies Steven and Elyse Keaton, their conservative son Alex, daughters Mallory and Jennifer, and later, youngest child Andrew.Michael J. Fox IS sitcom. (or was sadly..) Grew up on this. 7
- CreatorDavid AngellPeter CaseyDavid LeeStarsKelsey GrammerJane LeevesDavid Hyde PierceDr. Frasier Crane moves back to his hometown of Seattle, where he lives with his father and works as a radio psychiatrist.A great cast make for a semi-intellectual and quiet funny sitcom. 8
- CreatorDavid CraneMarta KauffmanStarsJennifer AnistonCourteney CoxLisa KudrowFollows the personal and professional lives of six twenty to thirty year-old friends living in the Manhattan borough of New York City.The huge hit of the nineties. Too much who-is-sleeping-with-who for me. But the first season or so was quite funny I must admit! 7
- CreatorJeff FranklinStarsBob SagetJohn StamosDave CoulierA widowed sportscaster raises his three daughters with assistance from his rock and roll brother-in-law and madcap best friend.Die!! (my sister watched like every episode as we were growing up).
Amazing to think that Bob Saget could behave that well for so many seasons. The only good thing to come out of that show though were the Olsen Twins… The Olsen Twins… 3 - CreatorDavid X. CohenMatt GroeningStarsBilly WestJohn DiMaggioKatey SagalPhilip J. Fry, a pizza delivery boy, is accidentally frozen in 1999 and thawed out on New Year's Eve 2999.Family Guy, Simpsons and Futurama. This is the shit.
"[in the library, absorbing all of Earth's knowledge]
Chief Giant Brain: Pathetic human race. Arranging their knowledge by category just made it easier to absorb. Dewey, you fool! Your decimal system has played right into my hands! Ha ha ha ha!" 8 - CreatorCarmen FinestraDavid McFadzeanMatt WilliamsStarsTim AllenEarl HindmanTaran Noah SmithThe daily trials and tribulations of Tim "The Tool Man" Taylor, a television show host raising three mischievous boys with help from his loyal co-host, loving wife, and eccentric neighbor.Tim Allen is extremely accident prone handy man. He really is very loveable and so is his wife. The only reason the show survived, as it wasn't strong enough to do so on it's own imo. 6
- CreatorShana Goldberg-MeehanScott SilveriStarsMatt LeBlancPaulo CostanzoDrea de MatteoIn this spin-off of Friends (1994), Joey Tribbiani moves to Los Angeles to pursue his acting career.Whatever. 4
- CreatorCasper ChristensenFrank HvamStarsFrank HvamCasper ChristensenMia LyhneThe socially awkward misadventures of Frank Hvam, his girlfriend Mia and his best friend Casper.Danish version of "Curb your enthusiasm" though not quite as funny. Won an award for "best original manuscript", even though there is nothing original about it whatsoever. Doesn't mean that the show doesn't have it's moments. But it is no more original than the American version of the Office (which is funny as hell by the way :)) 7
- StarsAnne Louise HassingAnders W. BerthelsenMaibritt SaerensStarting in 1949, the series follows four young Danes through 25 years of history and personal developments in a story about finding yourself in a world of changes.Danish "Matador" wannabe. No where near as good though. 5
- CreatorCasper ChristensenFrank HvamStarsCasper ChristensenFrank HvamKlaus BondamUnpredictable comedian Casper, pitiful sports-commentator Kenny, and eccentric boss Buckingham are just some of the loving characters in this series about money, sex, and career--all revolving around the politically-incorrect TV production 'JumpStart.'Danish "American" sitcom. With major league comedy stars such as Casper Christensen, Frank Hvam and Lars Hjortshøj. Not very funny though. 5
- CreatorJ.J. AbramsJeffrey LieberDamon LindelofStarsJorge GarciaJosh HollowayYunjin KimThe survivors of a plane crash are forced to work together in order to survive on a seemingly deserted tropical island.The mystery is interesting enough. True to form though, as far as the drama is concerned, ABC overdelivers. It is simply as melodramatic as any soapopera, with tons of cliches in the storyline, long zoomed closeups, and 10 second crossfades of closeups by the fire.. At it's worst, it makes you feel actually queasy. However the rest of the story is fine, and there is is no grave problema with the acting as such. I really tried to give it a chance but had to quit after 14 episodes. The soapopera was gaining turf on the mystery. A small 6 from me. 6
- CreatorLarry GelbartStarsAlan AldaWayne RogersLoretta SwitThe staff of an Army hospital in the Korean War find that laughter is the best way to deal with their situation.One of the greatest TV shows imo. Made Alan Alda. 9.
- CreatorRon LeavittMichael G. MoyeStarsEd O'NeillChristina ApplegateKatey SagalAl is the quintessential working class dad. Peggy, his wife, always wants more from him. With their children, they go through the highs and lows of ordinary life.Love and Marriage goes together like a horse and carriage? Yeah right... 7
- StarsJørgen BuckhøjBuster LarsenGhita NørbyA man comes to Korsbæk, Denmark, in 1929, opens a women's clothing store in competition with an established one - bringing him up against the conservative establishment including the bank manager. We follow the families until after WWII.A Danish classic. Real good stuff. Great storytelling. 10
- CreatorAnthony YerkovichStarsDon JohnsonPhilip Michael ThomasSaundra Santiago-Resplendent with authentic 1980s music, fashion, and vibe, "Miami Vice" follows two undercover detectives and their extended team through the mean streets of Miami, Florida.White suits with matching shoes and pink tshirts :) When could a cop ever afford a boat and a Ferrari if he wasn't on the take? I once read that one episode cost more than the annual budget of a department in Miami police :P 6
- CreatorChris CarterStarsLance HenriksenMegan GallagherTerry O'QuinnA former FBI profiler with the ability to look inside the mind of a killer begins working for the mysterious Millennium Group which investigates serial killers, conspiracies, the occult, and those obsessed with the end of the millennium.Spinoff from X-files. Managed to last 3 seasons. Was at it's best in the beginning. 7
- CreatorSteven BochcoCharles H. EgleeChanning GibsonStarsMary McCormackMichael HaydenJ.C. MacKenzieTheodore Hoffman is a prominent defense attorney in a prestigious Los Angeles law firm. After successfully defending the wealthy but suspicious Richard Cross in a lurid murder trial, he is now involved in the defense of Neil Avedon. Neil is a famous young actor who has had severe drug and alcohol problems and was subsequently charged with the murder, after Cross was acquitted. This single case will run an entire television season (interspersed with bits from other cases that the firm is involved in).I liked this show. Both Daniel Benzali and Anthony LaPaglia did well. Had a season each. Stanley Tucci and the insanely hot Bobbie Phillips are memorable as well. 8
- CreatorDiane EnglishStarsCandice BergenGrant ShaudRobert PastorelliThe personal and professional misadventures of an opinionated but beloved woman working as a television journalist.Synonymous with Candice Bergen as one of the first real power women on TV together with Roseanne. Lasted 10 seasons. 7
- CreatorGregory Thomas GarciaStarsJason LeeEthan SupleeJaime PresslyA ne'er do well wins $100,000 in the lottery and decides to right all the wrongs from his past with his newfound realization!Decent sitcom. Jaime Pressly does quite a good job actually. 7
- StarsBarbara Topsøe-RothenborgJesper ChristensenKatrine JenseniusA Danish show based on the humorous events in Nana and her dad's life.Great series for kids. Jesper Christensen marvels as the low key single dad that is completely at eye-level with his daughter Nana. 9
- StarsPeter MygindSofie GråbølDejan CukicCopenhagen thirtysomethings Nikolaj and Julie struggle with marriage, baby and work, plus friends of varying maturity.Will they get back together? Will I ever care? 5
- CreatorDouglas HeyesStarsKirstie AlleyDavid CarradinePhilip CasnoffThe story of two friends and their families on opposite sides of the American Civil War.Someone saw Gone With The Wind. "Epic" series as the title suggests. 6
- CreatorBryan FullerStarsLee PaceAnna FrielChi McBrideA pastry chef with the power to bring dead people back to life solves murder mysteries with his resurrected childhood sweetheart, a cynical private investigator, and a lovesick waitress.Quaint. He touches dead people and they live. He touches living people and they die. Cute, but sorta becomes old quickly. Lovely aparte storytelling though. 7
- StarsCharlotte FichMads MikkelsenLars BrygmannA mobile task force is dispatched across Denmark to help local police solve tough cases.Definitely one of the better Danish tv shows. Closer to 8 than 6. 7
- CreatorGarth AncierStarsRicki LakeAnita LawsonJames Easter BradfordYet another daytime television talk show, specializing in sensationalistic topics, with invited guests and a studio audience.Terrible talkshow with a lot of white trash guests. 2
- StarsErnst-Hugo JäregårdKirsten RolffesGhita NørbyDoctors at an ultramodern hospital in Denmark become convinced, by way of weird, inexplicable happenings, that the place is haunted.Lars von Trier goes mainstream. But without letting go of his artistic ambitions. The result is really great. 9
Lars von Trier is the master of suspense. I haven't seen this since it came out, but remember it as very entertaining and weird. Det-er-uhyyyyggeliiigt. A large 8 from me. 8 - CreatorRoseanne BarrMatt WilliamsStarsRoseanne BarrJohn GoodmanLaurie MetcalfA revival of the popular 1990s sitcom "Roseanne," which centered on the everyday life of an American working-class family.Stanley Kubrick once said "If you want to know America, watch Roseanne". Enough said. 9
- CreatorLorne MichaelsStarsThe Saturday Night Live BandDon PardoDarrell HammondA famous guest host stars in parodies and sketches created by the cast of this witty show.An American institution. Hard to grade as it is show by show and have been on air for 34 years now. In general the level is high, and some of the funniest things ever to appear on TV was the outcome of this show. 8
- CreatorSam BobrickStarsMark-Paul GosselaarMario LopezDustin DiamondA close-knit group of six friends get through their teens together while attending Bayside High School in Palisades, California.Just some whatever teenage sitcom. 4
- CreatorLarry DavidJerry SeinfeldStarsJerry SeinfeldJulia Louis-DreyfusMichael RichardsThe continuing misadventures of neurotic New York City stand-up comedian Jerry Seinfeld and his equally neurotic New York City friends.THE sitcom of the nineties. 9
- CreatorAlan BallStarsPeter KrauseMichael C. HallFrances ConroyA chronicle of the lives of a dysfunctional family who run an independent funeral home in Los Angeles.Alan Ball created this. And you will recognize a lot of the quaint atmosphere from American Beauty. 8
- CreatorGary David GoldbergBill LawrenceStarsMichael J. FoxCharlie SheenHeather LocklearMike Flaherty, the Deputy Mayor of New York City, and his team of half-wits must constantly save the Mayor from embarrassment and the media. Mike is later succeeded by Charlie Crawford.Michael J was great. The show nosedived w Heather Locklear, and crashed and burned with Charlie Sheen. 7
- CreatorJames L. BrooksStan DanielsDavid DavisStarsJudd HirschJeff ConawayDanny DeVitoThe staff of a New York City taxicab company go about their job while they dream of greater things.Andy Kaufman is great as Latka Gravas. Would probably have rated the show higher when it first aired. Now it's a 7 for me.
- CreatorMark BrazillBonnie TurnerTerry TurnerStarsTopher GraceLaura PreponMila KunisA comedy revolving around a group of teenage friends, their mishaps, and their coming of age, set in 1970s Wisconsin.A rather funny sitcom set in the 70s. Some funny cultural references to how life was back then, but mostly it's just a decent quality sitcom :) 7
- CreatorMichael LeesonStarsBill CosbyPhylicia RashadMalcolm-Jamal WarnerThe goings-on in the life of a successful African-American family.One of THE shows of the 80s. Too pc for me. Lisa Bonet is HoT though :P 6
- CreatorDavid LittMichael J. WeithornStarsKevin JamesLeah ReminiJerry StillerDeliveryman Doug Heffernan has a good life: He has a pretty wife (Carrie), a big television, and friends with which to watch it. Then Carrie's goofy, annoying father Arthur moves in with them.Kevin "The Body" James has an wife that is waaayy out of his league (Leah Remini). Sitcom set in... Queens.. 7
- CreatorBruno HellerStarsSimon BakerRobin TunneyTim KangA famous "psychic" outs himself as a fake, and starts working as a consultant for the California Bureau of Investigation so he can find "Red John", the madman who killed his wife and daughter.Who came up with the title??! The Mentalist.. How lame.... 5
- CreatorJames L. BrooksMatt GroeningSam SimonStarsDan CastellanetaNancy CartwrightHarry ShearerThe satiric adventures of a working-class family in the misfit city of Springfield.The best animated tv-show in the history of the world if you ask me. Punchlines are packed extremely tight, and even after 20 years the show is still funny and hasn't grown tired. Being animated means that time can stand still and the show can continue basically forever. 10
- CreatorAaron SorkinStarsMartin SheenRob LoweAllison JanneyInside the lives of staffers in the West Wing of the White House.Some great steadycam work! Never became a big fan of the show. Though it's tight, and well pulled off. 7
- CreatorChris CarterStarsDavid DuchovnyGillian AndersonMitch PileggiTwo F.B.I. Agents, Fox Mulder the believer and Dana Scully the skeptic, investigate the strange and unexplained, while hidden forces work to impede their efforts.This was a great(!) show, though the beginning was a lot stronger than the end. Really shows how good it can get with good storytelling even though you don't have a big budget. 8
- CreatorMark FrostDavid LynchStarsKyle MacLachlanMichael OntkeanMädchen AmickAn idiosyncratic FBI agent investigates the murder of a young woman in the even more idiosyncratic town of Twin Peaks.Some say that this is the best tv show ever. 10
- CreatorDavid KohanMax MutchnickStarsEric McCormackDebra MessingMegan MullallyGay lawyer Will and straight interior designer Grace share a New York City apartment. Their best friends are gleeful and proud gay Jack and charismatic, filthy-rich, amoral socialite Karen.How many jokes can you make about being gay? 187 episodes worth (i just counted them). That's a lot of gay jokes.. The show was too limited in it's scope. In puritan America, maybe it keeps being funny, but here in Europe being gay just is what it is.. However even with extremely characterized sidekicks, the show was still decent due to a very tight delivery of the comedic banter.. 7
- DirectorDanny BoyleStarsCillian MurphyNaomie HarrisChristopher EcclestonFour weeks after a mysterious, incurable virus spreads throughout the UK, a handful of survivors try to find sanctuary.Danny Boyle. Starts good, ends bad. 5
- DirectorDanny BoyleStarsCameron DiazEwan McGregorHolly HunterUpon being fired, a desperate guy kidnaps a daughter of his former boss. Two angels are sent to Earth to check if love is possible in this case.Danny Boyle. His worst movie? 4
- DirectorWes CravenStarsHeather LangenkampJohnny DeppRobert EnglundTeenager Nancy Thompson must uncover the dark truth concealed by her parents after she and her friends become targets of the spirit of a serial killer with a bladed glove in their dreams, in which if they die, it kills them in real life.Wes Craven. Johnny Depp's debut. 5
- DirectorElia KazanStarsVivien LeighMarlon BrandoKim HunterDisturbed Blanche DuBois moves in with her sister in New Orleans and is tormented by her brutish brother-in-law while her reality crumbles around her.Elia Kazan. Kickstarted Marlon Brando's career and was pretty much the end of Vivian Leigh's. 8
- DirectorJohn GlenStarsRoger MooreChristopher WalkenTanya RobertsThe recovery of a microchip from the body of a fellow British secret agent leads James Bond to a mad industrialist scheming to cause massive destruction.John Glen. Roger Moore is James Bond. 6
- DirectorWolfgang PetersenStarsHarrison FordGary OldmanGlenn CloseCommunist radicals hijack Air Force One with the U.S. President and his family on board. The Vice President negotiates from Washington D.C., while the President, a veteran, fights to rescue the hostages on board.Wolfgang Petersen. Cool name. 5
- DirectorMark MylodStarsSacha Baron CohenEmilio RiveraGina La PianaAli G unwittingly becomes a pawn in the Chancellor's plot to overthrow the Prime Minister of Great Britain. However, Ali is embraced by the nation as a voice of the youth, making the PM and his government more popular than ever.Mark Mylod. Borat is funny. This is exhausting. 3
- DirectorRidley ScottStarsSigourney WeaverTom SkerrittJohn HurtThe crew of a commercial spacecraft encounters a deadly lifeform after investigating a mysterious transmission of unknown origin.Ridley Scott. Sigourney Weaver is one tough chick. 8
- DirectorDavid FincherStarsSigourney WeaverCharles S. DuttonCharles DanceReturning from LV-426, Ellen Ripley crash-lands on the maximum-security prison Fiorina 161, where she discovers that she has unwittingly brought along an unwelcome visitor.David Fincher. His one big project before se7en. Before this he had only done musicvideos. He must have had quite the convincing sales pitch to the producers.. 7
- DirectorCameron CroweStarsBilly CrudupPatrick FugitKate HudsonA high-school boy in the early 1970s is given the chance to write a story for Rolling Stone magazine about an up-and-coming rock band as he accompanies them on their concert tour.Based on a true story. Kate Hudson's breakthrough. 7.
- DirectorSam MendesStarsKevin SpaceyAnnette BeningThora BirchA sexually frustrated suburban father has a mid-life crisis after becoming infatuated with his daughter's best friend.Sam Mendes. Written by Alan Ball. The whole cast does great. 9
- DirectorGeorge LucasStarsRichard DreyfussRon HowardPaul Le MatA group of teenagers in California's central valley spend one final night after their 1962 high school graduation cruising the strip with their buddies before they pursue their varying goals.George Lucas. A classic. 8
- DirectorCedric SundstromStarsDavid BradleySteve JamesMarjoe GortnerA man newly trained in the martial arts must save his trainer from experimentation.Cedric Sundstrom. This movie has warped my fragile little mind! Seriously besides Lawnmower Man II and I assume American Ninja 4 this has to be one of the worst movies ever to appear out of Hollywood. The stunts are more than poor, the plot is horrid, the acting worse and the cinematography of it is a joke. Spare yourself: Don't watch it. If you're a movie-lover this production will make you sad. Oh, and to quote a fellow reviewer. The credits song "The Cobra Strikes". I am considering suing for aggravated assault :P 1
- DirectorShari Springer BermanRobert PulciniStarsPaul GiamattiShari Springer BermanHarvey PekarAn original mix of fiction and reality illuminates the life of comic book hero everyman Harvey Pekar.Shari Springer Berman & Robert Pulcini. Paul Giamatti is great as Harvey Pekar. 7
- DirectorAlan ParkerStarsMickey RourkeRobert De NiroLisa BonetA private investigator is hired by a man who calls himself Louis Cyphre to track down a singer named Johnny Favorite. But the investigation takes an unexpected and somber turn.Alan Parker. Lisa Bonet is hoooot. 6
- DirectorJohn LandisStarsJohn BelushiKaren AllenTom HulceAt a 1962 college, Dean Vernon Wormer is determined to expel the entire Delta Tau Chi Fraternity, but those troublemakers have other plans for him.John Landis. John Belushi's breakthrough. 6
- DirectorEric DarnellTim JohnsonLawrence GutermanStarsWoody AllenSharon StoneGene HackmanA rather neurotic ant tries to break from his totalitarian society while trying to win the affection of the princess he loves.Eric Darnell & Tim Johnson. The main character must have been written for Woody Allen, it's such a match.. 7
- DirectorSteven SpielbergStarsHaley Joel OsmentJude LawFrances O'ConnorA highly advanced robotic boy longs to become "real" so that he can regain the love of his human mother.Steven Spielberg. Oh how I WISH that Stanley Kubrick would have been around to direct this one. I really believe the result would have been incredible and very different from what actually was turned out... 6
- DirectorJames L. BrooksStarsJack NicholsonHelen HuntGreg KinnearA single mother and waitress, a misanthropic author, and a gay artist form an unlikely friendship after the artist is assaulted in a robbery.James L. Brooks. Was a big hit and was well recieved by critics and moviegoers alike. But strangely Brooks didn't direct another movie for the next 7 years. (And Adam Sandler in stead of Jack N.. Ouch..) 7
- DirectorAugust BlomStarsOlaf FønssIda OrloffEbba ThomsenAfter Dr. Friedrich's wife becomes mentally unstable and his research papers are rejected, he leaves the country to respite.August Blom. I love the armless guy :P 8
- DirectorJay RoachStarsMike MyersBeyoncéSeth GreenUpon learning that his father has been kidnapped, Austin Powers must travel to 1975 and defeat the aptly named villain Goldmember, who is working with Dr. Evil.Jay Roach. Yet another gorgeous Powers girl (Beyonce) 7
- DirectorJay RoachStarsMike MyersElizabeth HurleyMichael YorkA world-class playboy and part-time secret agent from the 1960s emerges after thirty years in a cryogenic state to battle with his nemesis Dr. Evil.Jay Roach. Saw it the first time at an Austin Powers theme party in Sydney, Australia. Funny stuff :P 8
- DirectorPer FlyStarsJesper ChristensenMarius Sonne JanischefskaStine Holm JoensenKaj is an alcoholic living on the money the Danish state is providing him. Him and his friends spend their time drinking beer at a public bench. One day Kaj's life turns upside down when a young lady and her child moves in next to him.Per Fly. Jesper Christensen gives a performance of a lifetime. 8
- DirectorJoel SchumacherStarsAnthony HopkinsChris RockMatthew MarshWhen an Ivy League-educated C.I.A. Agent is killed during an operation, the secret agency recruits his twin brother (Chris Rock).Joel Schumacher. That's the last time I let Strømer choose the movie... 3
- DirectorPeter JacksonStarsTerry PotterPete O'HerneCraig SmithThe population of a small town disappears and is replaced by aliens that chase human flesh for their intergalactic fast-food chain.Peter Jackson. I guess it is well made for a student film... But standing on it's own legs this just isn't very good.. 3, and I'm being nice here...
- DirectorDavid ZuckerStarsTrey ParkerMatt StoneDian BacharTwo childhood friends are pro athletes of a national sport called BASEketball, a hybrid of baseball and basketball, and must deal with a greedy businessman scheming against their team.David Zucker. South Park is funny. 3.
- DirectorJoel SchumacherStarsArnold SchwarzeneggerGeorge ClooneyChris O'DonnellBatman and Robin try to keep their relationship together even as they must stop Mr. Freeze and Poison Ivy from freezing Gotham City.Joel Schumacher. Awful. Next to Daredevil this is the worst superhero movie I have ever seen. 3
- DirectorLeslie H. MartinsonStarsAdam WestBurt WardLee MeriwetherThe Dynamic Duo faces four supervillains who plan to hold the world for ransom with the help of a secret invention that instantly dehydrates people.Batman: [reading a riddle] What has yellow skin and writes?
Robin: A ball-point banana!
Batman: [reads the second riddle] What people are always in a hurry?
Robin: Rushing people... Russians!
Batman: So this means...
Robin: Someone Russian is going to slip on a banana and break their neck!
Batman: Precisely, Robin!
Finally someone who understood the premise - it's a series about a man in a cape. He has bat ears...
Oh and as for the much discussed homo relationship between Batman and Robin?
"Catwoman: Marry me, Batman!
Batman: But what about Robin?"
I rest my case..
..Anyways, room for one more ;)
Riddler: You and your trained, exploding shark!
Penguin: How was I to know they'd have a can of shark repellent Bat-spray handy? 6 - DirectorTim BurtonStarsMichael KeatonJack NicholsonKim BasingerThe Dark Knight of Gotham City begins his war on crime with his first major enemy being Jack Napier, a criminal who becomes the clownishly homicidal Joker.The best superhero movie ever. Gotta love Tim Burton. 9
- DirectorSpike JonzeStarsJohn CusackCameron DiazCatherine KeenerA puppeteer discovers a portal that leads literally into the head of movie star John Malkovich.Spike Jonze. His breakthrough. Super original. 9
- DirectorGurinder ChadhaStarsParminder NagraKeira KnightleyJonathan Rhys MeyersTwo ambitious girls, despite their parents' wishes, have their hearts set on careers in professional football.Indian girls are hot. So is Kiera Knightly though. She looks like a princess and has a princess last name. Think of it. I mean there are people running around with names like Ben Dover (My friends friend is actually named that! (Now if you ever needed a reason to go to a numeroulogist..)) Knightly is an all-time cool surname. In other words watch the movie!.. eh.. or.. Actually it is a cute, funny and harmless movie.. Soccer, sweet girls, funny families. 7
- DirectorPenny MarshallStarsTom HanksElizabeth PerkinsRobert LoggiaAfter wishing to be made big, a teenage boy wakes the next morning to find himself mysteriously in the body of an adult.Penny Marshall. Funny - she did 3 huge hits in a row - Big, Awakenings and A League of their Own. And then she seemingly just stopped directing. Anyways, I loved this one as a kid. 7
- DirectorDennis DuganStarsAdam SandlerJoey Lauren AdamsJon StewartA lazy law school graduate adopts a kid to impress his girlfriend, but everything doesn't go as planned.Dennis Dugan. Made me nauseous. Adam Sandler was so funny on Saturday Night Live. What happened? 3
- DirectorTim BurtonStarsEwan McGregorAlbert FinneyBilly CrudupA frustrated son tries to determine the fact from fiction in his dying father's life.Tim Burton. Overrated imo. None of the edge that is otherwise so characteristic in his work. My least favorite of his films. 6
- DirectorStephen NorringtonStarsWesley SnipesStephen DorffKris KristoffersonA half-vampire, half-mortal man becomes a protector of the mortal race, while slaying evil vampires.Stephen Norrington. I absolutely hated this the first time I saw it. Later on I found it rather harmless and entertaining. Though with enough sunblock vampires can stay out in the sun? Comeon... 6
- DirectorBen YoungerStarsGiovanni RibisiVin DieselNia LongA college dropout, attempting to live up to his father's high standards, gets a job as a broker for a suburban investment firm which puts him on the fast track to success. But the job might not be as legitimate as it first appeared to be.Ben Younger. Giovanni Ribisi saves the movie from bombing. Vin Diesel and Ben Affleck don't.. 5
- DirectorMichael MooreStarsMichael MooreCharlton HestonMarilyn MansonFilmmaker Michael Moore explores the roots of America's predilection for gun violence.Michael Moore. Does he ever take a bite out of Charleton Heston. Who btw more than deserves it. To be honest it's hard to wish for that guy to RIP..
