See Lola Run. and run. and run… Kind of like the Autobahn of movies – fast, loud, German, and you never know what’s coming around the next curve.
Rumble in the Bronx
Super Jackie Chan punch-o-rama! Who cares if there were mountains on the New York skyline?
The Roya Tenenbaums
Fun movie about a family of characters. Every character in this movie has some serious “issues”… but they’re all so wacky one just has to laugh. Something about this movie reminds me of how sometimes when you fly from Cleveland to Chicago, you have to go through Atlanta – Is that funny or sad?
Roxanne
Women can be so damn superficial. Men too.
Rosemary’s Baby
Would’ve been better if… um… shoot, I can’t remember exactly how the movie ended, but it would have been better if I did the ending.
Romancing the Stone
I’m trying to think of something cynical to say about this movie (because I’m in that kind of mood right now), but it’s not coming to mind… so, I guess it was an OK movie.
Roger & Me
One thing this movie doesn’t really address is the just stupid decisions US car companies have made, which in-turn have caused their decline. And who pays the price for that?
Rocky V
Rocky is too old to fight.
Rocky IV
Rocky wins again.
Rocky III
Rocky loses… then wins.
Rocky II
Rocky wins.
Rocky
Rocky loses.
The Rocketeer
His legs would get fried by the exhaust.
The Rock
Hollywood will use any excuse these days to show explosions and car chases. Why do they even bother with a plot or character development in these movies? Oh, that’s right… they don’t.
Rob Roy
I like movies like this – they’re set in a period, but don’t try to be “epics” or something – just little slices of life. This movie is worth seeing just for the quotes from the Cunnigham character: “Love is a dung hill and I am but a cock that climbs atop it to crow”, etc.
Robocop III
I’m not sure I saw this, and I don’t really care to find out for sure. I’m sure it was stupid.
Robocop II
I know I saw it, but I have no idea what exactly transpired.
Robocop
If you see this, try to see the directors cut. I don’t know what all changed, but one scene in the beginning (where the machine goes haywire and kills the executive) was changed. In the original cut, the machine shoots for like a minute solid, until its guns run dry. I guess “somebody” thought that was just too gruesome.
While the movie did have a corny element, it’s aged well. In the end, it’ll make you wonder if life will imitate art one day.
Mad Max 2: The Road Warrior
It’s Australian for post-apocalyptic hero.
A River Runs Through It
Not nearly as good as hiking the CDT through Montana.
The River Rat
I saw this some morning on TBS or something. I don’t really remember much about it, just that a very young Martha Plimpton was in it, and it was set on a river. Hmmm. It was decent, but my life isn’t changed because of it.
Ring of Bright Water
Consider this: A man from the city decides to buy an otter and move to Scotland in order to write a book about marsh arabs. He paints a cabin, then befriends a lady doctor and convinces her to row a boat while he harpoons a shark. While the man gone on a business trip, the otter is bludgeoned to death by a farmer who explains, “I thought it was just an otter.” If this sounds like a great idea for a movie… you’re too late, it’s already been done.
Revenge of the Nerds II
So, if they already got their revenge in #1, why do they need to get more revenge? The nerds go national in this ridiculous attempt to squeeze money out of the public.
Revenge of the Nerds
A classic, but still pretty stupid. One of those movies that will have you laughing and shaking your head at the same time.
The Way of the Dragon (Return of the Dragon)
Had the best sound of all the Bruce Lee flicks. A great punch-fest all throughout. Loved the fight with Chuck “wolfman” Norris at the end. For a brief time in my life, this was my favorite movie of all time. Either this or “the Chinese Connection” was Bruce’s best film.
