1990-1999

"A ghost story of the highest order [...] more emotional drama than scary suspense film..." Reviews were mixed (says Metacritic), but Hayley Joel Osment's performance as the young boy who sees ghosts was universally lauded.

Richard Attenborough brought back to life in Spielberg's fabulous fable about a dinosaur theme park that goes catastrophically wrong.

The antithesis of a typical Spielberg movie, it's a harrowing, understated account of the Holocaust, through the true story of a German crook who saves his Jewish "workforce" from the Nazi death camps.

Martin Sheen falls seriously ill; Marlon Brando is a pain in the arse; the Philippine Army borrows back its helicopters mid-shoot; Francis Ford is almost driven insane. Just another day in the work of an alleged auteur.

A must see movie because it features kilts before kilts had been invented? Nah, there's all but three hours to wade through: Gibson trying to emulate Abel Gance, only Wallace was no Napoleon.

Marge Gunderson takes on evil in remarkable town v country snowarama.
