THE NAKED GUN: FROM THE FILES OF POLICE SQUAD (1988) ***1/2.“What I’m trying to say is that, Wilma, as soon as Nordberg is better, he’s welcome back at police squad.”.“Unless he’s a drooling vegetable. But I think that’s only common sense.”.

NOPE (2022) ***1/2 “This dream you're chasing, where you end up at the top of the mountain, all eyes on you. it's the dream you never wake up from.” .Kaluuya rode off on that horse, we never saw him again,

AGUIRRE, THE WRATH OF GOD (1972/1977) **** “I'm powerless. But I am also sorry for you, because I know there is no escape from this jungle.” Who else is with me?

25TH HOUR (2002) **** “This all came so close to never happening.” .Another for the New York Times ballot. I’ve said this a hundred times but Barry Pepper is absolutely fucking amazing in this. Spike showed up at BAM, introduced the film, then stuck around for a Q&A. What a treat.

F1 (2025) ***1/2 “We have the driver.” .The reason cost of living in NYC is so high is because the Lincoln Square IMAX opens at 9am.

JURASSIC WORLD: REBIRTH (2025) ** Early on, the movie stops dead in its tracks for a scene in which ScarJo and Mahershala ask the financier of the mission for more millions of dollars before they agree to proceed to the island with the dinosaurs. Lousy in a way ‘90s sequels were.

FRANTIC (1988) ***1/2 An enthralling thriller. Every married man’s fantasy. Cannot imagine the kind of immensely dopey turns the plot will take when it becomes the next Harrison Ford project remade for streaming tv.

PUBLIC ENEMIES (2009) **** “That's 'cause they're all about where people come from. The only thing that's important is where someone's going.”.Would certainly be on my New York Times ballot.
