Harry Potter (2001-2011) – Ace Mini-Review + How Ace Is Alan Rickman?
As page-to-screen adaptations go, the films are reasonably decent, but you should still read the books.
Love Actually (2003) – Ace Mini-Review + How Ace Is Alan Rickman?
Ugh!
Sweeney Todd (2007) – Ace Mini-Review + How Ace Is Alan Rickman?
Yes, it’s just as awesome as it sounds!
A Promise (2013) – Ace Mini-Review + How Ace Is Alan Rickman?
I don’t know what I resent more, the tedium of the second half or the wasted potential of the first.
Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves (1991) – Ace Mini-Review + How Ace Is Alan Rickman?
I guess I can see how its unapologetic goofiness might appeal to some people, but I just found it annoying.
Galaxy Quest (1999) – Ace Mini-Review + How Ace Is Alan Rickman?
A dumb, silly homage to a dumb, silly show.
Romeo & Juliet (1978) – Ace Mini-Review + How Ace Is Alan Rickman?
Not a great adaptation of not a great Shakespeare play.
The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy (2005) – Ace Mini-Review + How Ace Is Alan Rickman?
While I admire the attempt to combine the whimsy and madness of the original with a coherent story, I can’t say it’s very successful.
Dogma (1999) – Ace Mini-Review + How Ace Is Alan Rickman?
A film that takes faith seriously enough to laugh at it!
