Miracle
A story about people rather than just one a team going for the win. In doing so, O’Connor makes Miracle one of the more thoughtful and enjoyable films revolving around sports.
Indecent Proposal
A film that is at times laughable yet at the same time, over 15 years after its release, its premise is still up for debate and discussion.
Fatal Attraction
An exceptionally well-written, well-acted and well-directed thriller that extends beyond the boundaries mainstream films typically set.
The Machinist
With time as a buffer, it’s now easier to see The Machinist for what it is: a labyrinthine leap down the rabbit hole into a nightmarish wonderland.
Enemy at the Gates
While it does have some solid moments of action, the film as a whole is laughable.
El Dorado
Hawks and his cast and crew make El Dorado seem so easy. It’s like a refined blockbuster that’s confident in hitting its ability to hit the right notes.
Three Days of the Condor
It’s got the mystery aspect down beautifully, but because I wasn’t given a chance to get behind the characters and get to know them, I had a hard time getting into the film itself.
