Rocky III (Rocky 3) (1982): Go Mr. T
As it is in Heaven (Så som i himmelen) (2004): It is good to look at but the screenplay is very commercial (the ending is cringing) and at times over melodramatic.; DVD ~~$25~~ $18.75
Inside Out (2015): Not the strongest Pixar but the younger viewers should enjoy.
State Of Play (2009): It is a bit of a slog and Affleck is unconvincing but as far as remakes go it is not too bad.
Mimic (1997): The bugs are well done and the set designs spot on.
Abouna (Our Father) (2002): A simple story shot economically without any unnecessary embellishments. Ali Farka Toure's score is used sparingly but effectively.
Bonneville (2006): The screenplay is familiar and not great but any director would bleed to have the services of these three actresses on the same set.
Maze Runner: The Death Cure (2017): Generally, the set designs are good but the screenplay is never ending – it's like getting stuck in a maze.
Sliding Doors (1997): A good plot idea which is helped to fruition by its casting of Gwyneth and just as importantly by John Hannah.
Cloak and Dagger (1946): A solid screenplay and a very good cast in the hands of a top director.
