The Karate Kid: Part III (1989)

Publish Date: June 30, 1989
"I have mastered all of the lessons "The Karate Kid" movies have to teach and all of the surprises they have to spring (...) Perhaps it is time, as Mr. Miyagi might say, to study something else (…) Rating: *½ (out of 4)"

Honey, I Shrunk the Kids (1989)

Publish Date: June 23, 1989

Batman (1989)

Publish Date: June 23, 1989
"The Gotham City created in 'Batman' is one of the most distinctive and atmospheric places I’ve seen in the movies. It’s a shame something more memorable doesn’t happen there (…) Rating: ** (out of 4)"

Dead Poets Society (1989)

Publish Date: June 9, 1989
"Not the worst of the countless recent movies about good kids and hidebound, authoritatian older people. It may, however, be the most shameless in its attempt to pander to an adolescent audience (...) Rating: ** (out of 4)"

Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade (1989)

Publish Date: May 24, 1989
"'Raiders of the Lost Ark', now more than ever, seems a turning point in the cinema of escapist entertainment (...) What he has done is to take many of the same elements, and apply all of his craft and sense of fun to make them work yet once again. And they do (…) Rating: ***½ (out of 4)"

Field of Dreams (1989)

Publish Date: April 21, 1989
"It is a delicate movie, a fragile construction of one goofy fantasy after another. But it has the courage to be about exactly what it promises (...) Rating: **** (out of 4)"

Chicago Sun-Times
High Hopes (1988)

Publish Date: April 14, 1989
"'High Hopes' is an alive and challenging film, one that throws our own assumptions and evasions back at us (…) Rating: **** (out of 4)"

Dead Calm (1989)

Publish Date: April 7, 1989
"'Dead Calm' generates genuine tension, because the story is so simple and the performances are so straightforward (...) Rating: *** (out of 4)"

Chicago Sun-Times
Cyborg (1989)

Publish Date: April 7, 1989
"The movie reduces itself to a series of smoking, smoldering cityscapes (…) Rating: * (out of 4)"

rogerebert.com
Heathers (1989)

Publish Date: March 31, 1989
"What sets 'Heathers' apart from less intelligent teenage movies is that it has a point of view toward this subject matter - a bleak, macabre and bitingly satirical one (…) Rating: **½ (out of 4)"

Lawrence of Arabia (1962)

Publish Date: March 17, 1989
"What a bold, mad act of genius it was to make 'Lawrence of Arabia', or even think that it could be made (...) For a movie that runs 216 minutes, plus intermission, 'Lawrence of Arabia' is not dense with plot details."

The Adventures of Baron Münchausen (1988)

Publish Date: March 10, 1989
"Some of the effects in this movie are actually quite wonderful (...) The wit and the spectacle of 'Baron Munchausen' are considerable achievements (...) Rating: *** (out of 4)"

New York Stories (1989)

Publish Date: March 3, 1989
"[It] consists of three films, one good, one bad, one disappointing (…) Rating: **½ (out of 4)"

The Burbs (1989)

Publish Date: February 17, 1989
"It's hard to put your finger on exactly what's missing (...) The actors do what they can with the material and the special effects are ambitious, but somehow the film fails to rouse itself into any real conviction (…) Rating: ** (out of 4)"

Cousins (1989)

Publish Date: February 10, 1989
"The movie is intelligently directed by Joel Schumacher (...) This isn't one of those shallow movies that's about nothing except love. Instead we get inside the lives of these people (…) Rating: ***½ (out of 4)"

Dangerous Liaisons (1988)

Publish Date: January 13, 1989
"A mannered, elegant film in which the languorous intrigues of the opening scenes set up the violent passions of the later ones (...) Rating: *** (out of 4)"

Chicago Sun-Times
The January Man (1989)

Publish Date: January 13, 1989
"'The January Man' is worth study as a film that fails to find its tone. It's all over the map. It wants to be zany but violent, satirical but slapstick, romantic but cynical (…) Rating: * (out of 4)"

Beaches (1988)

Publish Date: January 13, 1989
"There is only so much bittersweet poignancy I can take in any one movie (…) Rating: **½ (out of 4)"

Hellbound: Hellraiser II (1988)

Publish Date: December 23, 1988
