Answer 1

Favorite Answer

the omega man is pretty good.  I think the other two versions of I am legend are slightly better just because it hasn't aged as well imo.  but it's still a very good movie.

maclintock is funny to a degree.  but, even as a silly movie that you don't take seriously, I still have a problem stomaching that the solution to his marital problems is to publicly humiliate, strip, and spank his wife.  so, I can't watch it again.

the beguiled (71) is great.  it's twisted and has a great dark ending.

the end of the affair.  I hate this movie.  I give them credit for attempting something difficult.  but I just felt like 90% of the movie was a whinny slog without a lot interesting about it.  and the "payoff" in the surprise ending didn't really illuminate anything of value.  you just realized that she wasn't a completely fickly beotch.  but other than that, she was still a married woman screwing around.

the patriot.  ok.  went on too long, and demonizing the British officer detracted more than it added to the story.

hook.  I really like it as a kid's movie.  I think it's a little bit underrated.  Williams makes a great Robin Hood.

Answer 2

The Omega Man was my favorite of those.

Answer 3

The only two I've seen are The Patriot and Hook.  They were both okay.

Answer 4

I've only seen two of those: The Patriot (2000) and Hook (1991). I somewhat liked The Patriot. I'd give it a B. I didn't like Hook (1991), but I also didn't terribly dislike it, so I'd give it a C-.
