High Sierra remains a very entertaining movie some sixty years after it made Humphrey Bogart a star. In many ways it set the template for future antihero movies made in realistic settings. But never mind that. With Bogie at his best, working from a script written by John Huston and W.R. Burnett…

Gary Cooper walking alone down a dusty Western street to confront a gang of killers is as iconic as Hollywood gets, making High Noon an archetype even more than a legend. That’s quite a weight. Fortunately the movie itself is engaging, suspenseful and tight. A mere 85 minutes, it runs in ne…

Before Denzel Washington and Russell Crowe were Oscar winners, they stared together in this sci-fi action film from the early days of the internet. Everything about this film is heavy on the cheesiness, and advances in internet technology make some of the tech-talk laughable now. Still, for a fun… |
