Gas, Food Lodging (1992)

Turbulence (1997)

After a shootout on a flight transporting prisoners, a flight attendant must outwit a smooth-talking serial killer and land the plane herself.

Silly and unoriginal exploitation; watchable for Ray Liotta's no holds barred overperformance - if you can take it.

Halliwell (no star): "Ridiculous thriller that adds violence and special effects mayhem to the plot of Airport 1975; it may put you off going to the cinema again."

Maltin**1/2: "Though undeniably silly (a slasher movie on a plane?), this often delivers the goods through sheer brassiness, and Liotta has a high old time as the nutzoid killer."

Jim Tully and Wallace Beery

All the Money in the World (2017)

The story of the kidnapping of 16-year-old John Paul Getty III and the desperate attempt by his devoted mother to convince his billionaire grandfather Jean Paul Getty to pay the ransom.

A well-made movie with little suspense, since the actual events are so well-known; Christopher Plummer is excellent as the miserly and heartless billionaire.

Elle s'appelait Sarah (2010)

In modern-day Paris, a journalist finds her life becoming entwined with a young girl whose family was torn apart during the notorious Vel' d'Hiv Roundup in 1942.

Unpretentious drama is touching and revealing, but at times falls a bit into melodrama.

Maltin***1/2: "Understated but deeply moving drama...illuminates this wrenching moment in history more artfully than LE RAFLE (THE ROUNDUP)..."

Side Effects (2013)

A young woman's world unravels when a drug prescribed by her psychiatrist has unexpected side effects.

A highly convoluted mystery with multiple twists some hows works with its excellent performances and intelligent direction.

Maltin***: "Intriguing film noir-type story...with modern pharmaceutical twist keeps you guessing right to the end, although its characters are not especially fun to spend time with."
