The Sentinel came out in ‘06, halfway through Kiefer Sutherland’s bravura run as Jack Bauer on TV’s 24, the quintessential post-9/11 secret agent series. From there it’s a short hop to Secret Service mucky-muck in the Presidential Protective Division. Michael Douglas is also well-cast as his …

Ultimate male bonding, pungent dialogue, and charismatic performances make this a classic fairytale for grown men. Tim Robbins’ steely, understated banker-behind-bars buddies up with Morgan Freeman’s laconic, decent con to form a duo for the ages. |

Superstars at the height of their stardom made The Witches of Eastwick a stargazer’s delight in the late 80s. The starfucking combination of Nicholson, Sarandon, Pfeiffer and Cher still makes for a deliciously naughty movie. It’s also funny as hell, especially the middle reel when Nicholson…
