"An absolute legend in movie-making, and a prime example of how the Director's Cut can vastly improve a film. Not one for all you action junkies. And as for the Tears in Rain speech... WOW."
"Falls short of the sheer wonder of the book, but still a very good film. No doubt the new Hollywood version will butcher this, so watch this before the world forgets it."
"Quite confusing at times, but always worth a second viewing to understand it. Quite profound and an inciteful outlook on our world. Brad Pitt's supporting role is his best performance."
"Amazingly over-hyped, but for once with good reason. An outstanding film, both for the spookiness that it could actually be real and the simply amazing action and effects sequences."
"Time to add a bit of comic relief to the list. Barry Sonnenfeld's modern classic is a well-presented story of the secret army saving us from alien invasion, with a sense of humour and great effects."
"Much misunderstood, and really cheesy when it isn't busy being a great film. Raises a few good points on the sci-fi genre. A good alien invasion flick for the Buffy generation."
"I'm not sure if this can reasonably be classed as sci-fi, but it does have a good stab at making fun of some of the *ahem* less well made classics of the 1950s. Let's do the time warp again..."
"A lot of people didn't like this film, but not having seen the original series, I rather liked it. Plus pretty much anything with time travel wins me over."
"Far superior to the series that spawned it, it answers a few of the series' questions but not enough to stop you from watching the rest of the series. Some great scenes and superb acting."
"Dwarfed by Bruce Willis' awful blockbuster Armageddon, which came out at a similar time and with a similar plot, this film easily surpasses it. Elijah Wood is the best young actor for a long time."
"People write this film off before they've seen it ,and it's an unfair judgement. A touching and emotional story of the real-life Apollo 13 space disaster which is very well-acted. Beautiful."
