Who Killed the Electric Car? (2005)
How To Save The World (2007)
Kiwi Flyer (2012): Aka "Derby Dogs". An excellent opening sequence and although the basic plot idea that follows has been done a million times it has been freshened up quite well. Inoffensive and good natured.
Breaker Morant (1979): Although it doesn't rate as well as "Paths of Glory" as far as courtroom dramatisations go its not too bad. The photography of the outside locations and the enactments are good with a cynical use of a military music score.; DVD ~~$24.95~~ $18.70
Ratchet & Clank (2016): The animation and the characters are watchable – the story is not great but okay.
One Chance (2013): The first third is very good but the screenplay then weakens out and gets melodramatic. Being shorter might have helped.
Some Kind of Wonderful (1987): The screenplay weakens out after five minutes which doesn't matter because nothing happens other than depicting some pleasant teenagers wasting time.
City Slickers 2 (The Legend of Curly's Gold) (1994): It doesn't quite have enough material for a full length film but its better than most sequels. The characters are still watchable and so are the desert locations.
Out for Justice (1991): There is no excuse for depicting violence against women.
Toy Soldiers (1991): A strange mix of adult violence and a "Boys Own" comic adventure. It gets a bit silly in parts. Louis Gossett Jr. and Denholm Elliott lend experience and stability to the performances.
