Henry: A Portrait of a Serial Killer (1985) At Those Movies
Here's a slasher movie that both Siskel and Ebert thumbsed but it couldn't get released! Stuff seems tame compared to today to be honest with ya. To be even more honest I'd recommend this movie but I think you'd enjoy the more realistic and fun "Confessions of a Serial Killer" over HAPSK. Heck, why not make it a double feature?

Ghost(1990) At Those Movies
Просмотров 1449 месяцев назад
Just think, back in 1990 this movie out grossed Total Recall, Home Alone, Pretty Woman, and Dancing with Wolverines. Early sign of the upcoming apocalypse? Our fave scribes Ebert and Siskel were at odds at how come Molly(Demi) absolutely refuses to believe her ex-bf is a ghost! Um, maybe Molly(Demi) is smarter than she looks? ngl I just wondered why she sports a man's haircut and loose fitting ...
Harley Davidson & The Marlboro Man At Those Movies (1991)
Просмотров 7099 месяцев назад
Anybody remember this flick from late summer 1991? Along with Mickey Rourke and Dons Johnson this vehicle had up and coming stars like Daniel Baldwin, Tia Carrere, Kelly Hu, along with pre drug crazed Tom Sizemore. To our surprise Siskel and Ebert are at odds about this movie..so much at odds they end up fighting over whether a leather chair was a leather chair or a metal counsel, whatever coun...
Barbarians at the Gate (1993) At Those Movies
Просмотров 2,6 тыс.2 года назад
Amazingly enough, this is a TV movie, shown on HBO instead of a movie theater. Great enough to win an Emmy, Great enough to be reviewed by Siskel & Ebert. You might find this a timely movie as the plot involved taking a public company private. Elon Musk much?
Broken Arrow HD (1996) At Those Movies
Просмотров 1852 года назад
Here's a higher quality version of this historical movie review. Ebert actually convinces/tricks Siskel into changing his upward thumb downward. Note Siskel at 2:25 catches himself saying "it doesn't work", he knew he was busted. Also, if you look closely you'll see an edit that really enhances this review. Maybe the show's ratings were suffering a little and they decided to spice things up a b...
A Brief History of Time (1992) At Those Movies
Просмотров 7582 года назад
This Errol Morris documentary attempts to discover what makes renowned physicist Stephen Hawking tick. Hawking then tries to explain how your watch would tick if you fell into a black hole. Siskel & Ebert are split over whether to recommend this film. However, they both agree Morris should have delved a little deeper into the singular(haha) mind of Stephen Hawking. With a run time of 80 minutes...
American Me (1992) At Those Movies
Просмотров 10 тыс.2 года назад
Director Edward James Olmos directs and stars in this movie about the origins of the Mexican Mafia in the California prison system. This movie caused a lot of outrage from the Mexican Mafia, as they felt the homosexual rape scenes were way out of line. Several of the consultants reportedly were murdered after this movies release. I gotta admit Olmos dug deep into many issues within the Latino c...
The Hunt for Red October (1990) At Those Movies
Просмотров 3,5 тыс.3 года назад
This movie was so good that both Siskel & Ebert give a emphatic thumbs up. Ebert liked that the plotline was much clearer than Clancy's book(I wholeheartedly agree). Siskel liked how the intelligence community played their cat and mouse games, along with Alec Baldwin's(back when he wasn't a a complete lunatic) standout performance. Audiences certainly agreed this was worth watching, this was th...
The Principal (1987)
Просмотров 5 тыс.3 года назад
This 1987 blast from the past features Jim Belushi and Louis Gossett Jr.(barely). Belushi takes on the unenviable role as a principal trying to clean up a drug infested High School. You know it's the 80's when you see Junior from Platoon in a small role as one of the gang members. Naturlich, Siskel and Ebert give opposing thumbs with Ebert buying into Belushi's role, in principal.. and Siskel t...
Siskel & Ebert Reservoir Dogs (1992) At Those Movies
Просмотров 3,1 тыс.3 года назад
Incredibly BOTH Siskel & Ebert take turns wildly swinging at Reservoir Dogs until it ends up beat to a pulp, much like Butch's opponents in the ring so long ago. I'll correct their error in judgement. Reservior Dogs is Quentin Tarantino's first movie, it was a very big success. The acting and dialogoue are outstanding. Add to the fact this movie has numerous iconic scenes gives this movie 4 Sta...
Siskel & Ebert Robocop (1987) At Those Movies
Просмотров 7 тыс.3 года назад
This might be where Hollywood took a really close look at Paul Verhoeven. Gene and Roger really liked this film with it's combination of ultra-violence and comedic timing. It's impossible to find a way to get offended by this flick, although I bet some people nowadays will somehow find a way. Anyone know how Verhoeven's movies looked so colorful, crisp, and clear?
Siskel & Ebert Star Wars - The Empire Strikes Back (1980) At Those Movies
Просмотров 19 тыс.3 года назад
Is this the best Star Wars movie ever? Both Siskel and Ebert praise how well Empire Strikes Back weaves new worlds, creatures and their "awe inspiring" sights into one of film history's ultimate Sci-Fi Adventures. What a great time this was at the Midland theater in downtown Kansas City the first week of release back in May, 1980.
Siskel & Ebert Dirty Rotten Scoundrels (1988) At Those Movies
Просмотров 1,2 тыс.3 года назад
I think this review shows how being a movie critic can be problematic. Here Gene gives a thumbs down because he the plot is too predictable and he says the main characters(Martin/Caine) don't interact very well. I mean, comeon these guys are a riot there's enough laughs to makeup for the lack of laughs in another comedy that came out around this time, Scrooged. At least Roger looked past the fe...
Siskel & Ebert Mrs. Doubtfire (1993) At Those Movies
Просмотров 1,3 тыс.3 года назад
This was the 2nd highest grossing movie of 1993, only losing out to Jurassic Park by 500 million or so. Gene bought Robin Williams under all that makeup, while Roger absolutely did not. One of those rare super hits that never got a sequel I'll take this over Tootsie any day.
Siskel & Ebert Double Impact (1991) At Those Movies
Просмотров 2,2 тыс.3 года назад
Hey, you get TWO JCVD for the price of one! There's a lot to like with this flick and it was a money maker at the heights of Van Damme's power in 91. Gene and Roger have some nice things to say but they wanted more humor. I think I saw this in Biloxi but maybe that was Harley Davidson and the Marlboro Man. Still waiting for Double Impact 2 time's a wastin'.

    Everyone wants to trash that film, but I think it's important to have films like this exist. If you want to understand villainy and the roots of evil, then you must see them in full form. A clockwork orange would not have worked if the main character had some redeeming qualities. Let us see evil for what it is. I liked the Bad Lieutenant and I'm glad I saw it.

    Well actually, Cab's clothing, contact lenses, teeth fillings and his everything was invisible due to the accident. Cab even talked this after he had a problem taking a shower because he couldn't see where he'd placed his invisible clothes. Fun movie imo, some of the best vfx of the early nineties. This is what Sam Neill was doing while Jurassic Park was in pre-production.

    Carrotblanca was shown in a MeTV Toons intermission, maybe it’s gonna show up in the Cartoon All-Stars Slot. (Invasion of the Bunny Snatchers could potentially show up there as well, along with Another Froggy Evening, and From Hare To Eternity.) This one would probably be on a Sunday since one Flintstones movie as well as those guest stories of Scooby Doo are on that day.

    I do get Ebert's point about the characters of the defendants being underwritten. In fact I often forget that Ralph "The Karate Kid" Macchio is even in this movie when I rewatch it. But Siskel gets that this is one of the rare courtroom dramas where the story is more about the lawyers than the defendants and so likes it like we do.
