90s

Hello there. Hope you're in the mood for one of the classic formatted "Top 10" opinions because unfortunately/fortunately (ignore where appropriate) for you this is indeed a Smarky Top 10 opinion. On the 90s too. Not the decade as a whole, oh no, that would be stupid and require hours of writing probably. As it is, I am just writing about my favourite movies of the decade that was..the 90s. So, not really stupid, and while it will still consume around an hour+ of my time, it certainly won't steal my Wednesday night. Anyway, this is mindless babble, and I don't want to put you off...so I guess I'll just get straight on topic. How's that? ...  Read the complete review

Well, this is going to be very difficult. I am a fan of most film genres but really enjoy a film that will either make me laugh or think about it. Ok, so here I go and in traditional Top of the Pops fashion I will kick things off at number ten. 10 - Groundhog Day. Quite possibly one of the most under rated romantic comedies ever made. It has a great story and Bill Murray is fantastic as always, and Groundhog Day only just edged out an Murray gem, Rushmore. Believe me it was a difficult choice but Groundhog day gets it for originality and for Murray lamping that annoying salesman, absolutly classic. 9 - Casino. I am huge De Niro fan and I think his ...  Read the complete review

The following are what I would consider to be the top ten films of the 1990s. I am an action/thriller person myself, so don't expect this to be an intellectual's list. --------------------------------------------------- 10. Austin Powers: The Spy Who S****ed Me (1999) --------------------------------------------- If you're considering buying this and have never seen either film, you may want to rent the video to make sure this is your taste in comedy. If you have already seen either movie, then you should know if you like it or not. That being said, this film is hilarious, and I have watched it more once. This movie tends to focus on ...  Read the complete review

Bit stuck for things to write about(in case you hadn't guessed) so I'm afraid it's one top ten after another for a while... 1) Seven (or "Se7en" if you simply must be anoraky) These are in no particular order of course but if they were then Seven would be up there near the very top. This is David Fincher at the very peak of his talents, bringing two of Hollywood?s hottest properties (Morgan Freeman and Brad Pitt) together to track down a serial killer who tortures and kills his victims to the tune of the seven deadly sins. It?s dark, brooding, menacing and enormously atmospheric and I love it. 2) The Matrix (this was 90s ...  Read the complete review

This was extremely tough, but I've managed to compile my top ten 90s films, hope you enjoy. In no real order: (1) Clerks (1993) - Kevin Smith's superb debut, which focuses on the nightmares of convenience store clerks. The acting is top, and Randal is probably Kevin Smith's best creation. The scene where Dante and Randal discuss what customers they hate the most is hysterical, for example when one video shop customer asks "Do you have that movie with that guy that was out last year?". The ending is great too. There should be more films like this. (2) Grosse Pointe Blank (1997) - Definately John Cusack's finest film to ...  Read the complete review
