A Split Vote on Tremors, the Giant Worm Attack set Out West: I thought the film had its moments, but far too few of them; Roger enjoyed it a whole lot more. |
Two Thumbs Down for the quite awful Ski Patrol, full of stupid hijinks on the slopes. |
Two Thumbs Up for Internal Affairs, a very strong macho drama set in the police world with terrific performances by Richard Gere, Andy Garcia, and Laurie Metcalf. |
And Two More Enthusiastic Thumbs Up for Michael Roemer’s long-lost comedy The Plot Against Harry, the story of a mobster’s attempt at achieving respectability. |

In Touch and Go, Michael Keaton gets mugged by a kid and falls for his mother; the movie’s a funny, warm-hearted sleeper: Two Thumbs Up |
‘night, Mother stars Sissy Spacek and Anne Bancroft in a long prelude to suicide that is too long if you ask me; Gene agrees: Two Thumbs Down |
We Disagreed on Blue Velvet: Gene likes its style and cleverness; but I thought it didn’t have much feeling for the deep human emotions that it toys with |
And a Split Decision on Where the River Runs Black: I liked the fable of a dolphin that turns into a beautiful woman – why not? – and her son who’s half human; Gene thought it was boring and implausible: One Thumb Up – and your Thumb Down… |
