U.S. Release Date: 1991-03-22
MPAA Rating: "PG"
Genre: Fantasy/Comedy
Director: Albert Brooks
Cast: Albert Brooks, Meryl Streep, Rip Torn, Lee Grant, Buck Henry
Brooks offers humor that targets the brain rather than the gut. There are some laugh-out-loud moments but the primary tone is “amusing” rather than “hilarious.”
U.S. Release Date: 1991-10-18
MPAA Rating: "R" (Profanity, Sexual Content)
Genre: Drama
Director: Norman Jewison
Cast: Danny DeVito, Gregory Peck, Penelope Ann Miller, Piper Laurie, Dean Jones
There are enough good things to warrant a look for those who may have dismissed the film in 1991 or who never saw it.
U.S. Release Date: 2016-02-26
MPAA Rating: "PG"
Genre: Animated
Director: Isao Takahata
Cast: Miki Imai, Toshiro Yanagiba, Youko Honna, Daisy Ridley, Dev Patel, Alison Fernandez
The timeless quality of the story and animation make it as much a pleasure to see on the second or third time as it is on the first.
U.S. Release Date: 1991-03-15
MPAA Rating: "PG-13" (Violence, Profanity, Sexual Content)
Genre: Action/Comedy
Director: William Dear
Cast: Richard Grieco, Roger Rees, Linda Hunt, Robin Bartlett, Gabrielle Anwar, Geraldine James, Michael Siberry, Roger Daltry
The filmmakers underestimate the audience’s intelligence, delivering something cartoonish and unfunny that doesn’t work as a comedy, an action/adventure spoof, or much of anything else.
U.S. Release Date: 2011-11-25
MPAA Rating: "NR" (Violence, Profanity)
Genre: Drama
Director: Edward Yang
Cast: Chen Chang, Lisa Yang, Kuo-Chu Chang, Elaine Jin, Chi-tsan Wang, Chih-Kang Tan
With its sprawling tapestry and mini-series length, Edward Yang’s 1991 gangster drama deserves the label of "epic" and warrants comparison to Francis Ford Coppola’s "The Godfather."
