An intriguing blend of globetrotting neo-noir and road trip plot elements, it often seems on the cusp of greatness without ever getting there.
U.S. Release Date: -
MPAA Rating: "NR" (Violence)
Genre: Drama
Director: Gillo Pontecorvo
Cast: Jean Martin, Saadi Yacef, Brahim Haggiag
In the universality of its message and the lucidity with which it is presented, "The Battle of Algiers" shows its true power.

MPAA Rating: "NR" (Violence, Profanity, Instances of Race-Related Bigotry)
Genre: Drama/Thriller
Director: Norman Jewison
Cast: Sidney Poitier, Rod Steiger, Warren Oates, Lee Grant, Larry Gates, James Patterson
The honesty with which Jewison and his cast address issues of race and bigotry gives the movie more power than the underlying crime story would suggest.

Director: Sebastian Lelio
Cast: Julianne Moore, Sean Astin, Michael Cera, Alanna Ubach, Jeanne Tripplehorn, Holland Taylor, John Turturro, Rita Wilson, Brad Garrett, Caren Pistorius

MPAA Rating: "PG-13" (Profanity, Adult Themes)
Genre: Drama
Director: Sean Hanish
Cast: Michelle Monaghan, Leem Lubandy, Common, Alfred Molina, Alfre Woodard, Mykelti Williamson

MPAA Rating: "R" (Violence, Gore, Profanity)
Genre: Horror/Thriller
Director: Neil Jordan
Cast: Isabelle Huppert, Chloë Grace Moretz, Maika Monroe, Colm Feore, Stephen Rea
Little more than a B-movie with strong production values and an eclectic cast, this is far from Jordan at his best.

Genre: Comedy
Director: Michael Ritchie
Cast: Chevy Chase, Joe Don Baker, Dana Wheeler-Nicholson, Richard Libertini, Tim Matheson, M. Emmet Walsh, George Wendt, Geena Davis
A mystery/comedy that has been robbed by age of its humor, leaving behind a leaden and tedious sampling of what people found funny in the 1980s.
U.S. Release Date: 1987-11-13
MPAA Rating: "R" (Violence, Profanity)

Director: Paul Michael Glaser
Cast: Arnold Schwarzenegger, Richard Dawson, Maria Conchita Alonso, Yaphet Kotto, Marvin J. McIntrye, Jesse Ventura, Jim Brown, Professor Toru Tanaka, Gus Rethwisch, Erland Van Lidth, Mick Fleetwood
"The Running Man" wastes a good premise so egregiously that it feels like a desecration.

MPAA Rating: "PG-13" (Violence, Profanity, Sexual Content)
Genre: Drama/Comedy
Director: Stephen Merchant
Cast: Florence Pugh, Lena Heady, Nick Frost, Jack Lowden, Vince Vaughn, Dwayne Johnson
Pugh’s performance is the best thing about the movie but the story, despite Merchant’s comedic flourishes, feels stale at times.
