  1. Postmen in the Mountains
    It's a love letter to the myriad ways, large and small, that mail handlers change lives the world over.
  2. Air Force One
    Takes its absurd premise and keeps itself narrowly focused, pushing its heroic cast through obstacle after obstacle.
  3. OSS 117: Cairo, Nest of Spies
    The comedy is strained to the point of lameness, most of it exaggerated clumsiness, stupidity or inappropriateness.

    The Gift
    So chock-full of stereotypes as to be a filmic Southern Country Safari.
  5. Black Sea
    The film’s patina of richly textured grime lends the film a gloomy, claustrophobic beauty that serves its mood, as well as its satisfyingly misanthropic message: Greed isn’t good, and most people aren’t either.
  6. The Bounty
    Like so many modern movies, The Bounty appears interesting and even spellbinding when preoccupied with settings and textures, but maddeningly obtuse when obliged to clarify basic dramatic conflicts. [17 May 1984, p.E8]
    • Washington Post
  7. Curious George
    It's pretty elementary.
  8. Careful
    Careful, the hilariously bizarre new film from Canadian director Guy Maddin, is like some lost masterpiece from a time-warped alternative dimension -- a strange artifact that time forgot.
