Review of April Fool's Day (1986)

By Salem Alaton (12) for The Globe and Mail (Toronto) (4,018) on 02 May 2020

The dialogue is mostly composed of rude variations on ''eek,'' ''ugh'' and ''I'd like to sleep with you this evening…

Review of Private Practices: The Story of a Sex Surrogate (1986)

By Salem Alaton (12) for The Globe and Mail (Toronto) (4,018) on 20 Jul 2016

Though the idea of the therapy appears to be the demystification of sex, the filming, with its voyeuristic detachment and curious…

Review of Crocodile Dundee (1986)

By Salem Alaton (12) for The Globe and Mail (Toronto) (4,018) on 26 Nov 2013

Unpretentious, warm, at times hilarious, it's hard to find a bad word to say about Crocodile Dundee…

Review of Condorman (1981)

By Salem Alaton (12) for The Globe and Mail (Toronto) (4,018) on 11 Mar 2008

It is painless and chaste, and it has a lot of beautiful scenery and beautiful clothes. There are worse things to watch while you eat popcorn…

Review of The Money Pit (1986)

By Salem Alaton (12) for The Globe and Mail (Toronto) (4,018) on 15 Feb 2005

If you can imagine a remake of Steven Spielberg's Poltergeist in which the spirits of the dead have been shoved aside by equally loud,…

Review of Critters (1986)

By Salem Alaton (12) for The Globe and Mail (Toronto) (4,018) on 10 Sep 2001

It's commercially calculated to have something for everyone - suspense, humor, even a bounty hunter from the krites' planet who poses as a…

Review of Dead of Winter (1987)

By Salem Alaton (12) for The Globe and Mail (Toronto) (4,018) on 25 May 1998

While beautifully shot, admirably old-fashioned (sexual violence and explicit gore are absent), and endowed with pleasing plot twists, the…

Review of My Science Project (1985)

By Salem Alaton (12) for The Globe and Mail (Toronto) (4,018) on 02 Nov 1997

A cheerful teen-age adventure film that in its snappier moments resembles a far less clever and less expensive Back to the Future…

Review of Real Genius (1985)

By Salem Alaton (12) for The Globe and Mail (Toronto) (4,018) on 28 Apr 1995

Martha Coolidge's bright, whimsical Real Genius can credit part of its substantial and richly deserved cult following to the fact that…

Review of Jake Speed (1986)

By Salem Alaton (12) for The Globe and Mail (Toronto) (4,018) on 17 Feb 1989

Most of the possibilities for humor or tension, either sexual or dramatic, are badly botched by the flat performances of the other lead…

Review of King Kong Lives (1986)

By Salem Alaton (12) for The Globe and Mail (Toronto) (4,018) on 30 Oct 1987

The problem with everyone in King Kong Lives is that they're in a boring movie, and they know they're in a boring movie, and they just…

Review of Once Bitten (1985)

By Salem Alaton (12) for The Globe and Mail (Toronto) (4,018) on 02 Aug 1987

Once Bitten affects a glossy, sophisticated look that does little to upgrade the film's adolescent humor…
