509 Films have been rated or reviewed by GenXGirl.
Santa Clause, The (1994)
A Christmas flick that people never seem to tire of, it's bound to end up screening on TV at some point over the festive season. A role that seems to have been especially written with Allen in mind. 
Polar Express, The (2004)
An astonishing adaptation of this beautiful story about one boy's Christmas Eve journey upon the Polar Express. Groundbreaking animation that really needs to be viewed on the big screen to be fully appreciated. An unforgettable ride.
Zathura (A Space Adventure) (2005)
A bit like a modern day version of Jumanji, only this time two brothers discover an old tattered metal space–themed game which, with the roll of a dice, has some unusual qualities. Slight let–down as it feels like it's all been done before.
Back to the Future (1985)
- With the help of a wacky scientist, a young teen travels back to 1955 in a Delorean turned time–machine, where he meets his parents. A massive hit, and thoroughly entertaining 80's classic that's still much loved and enjoyed today.
Jurassic Park (1993)- Scientists successfully extract dinosaur DNA from preserved prehistoric mosquitoes, clone it, and recreat a variety of dinosaurs to roam around a theme park. Truly convincing use of computer graphics that made it a box–office sensation.
Jumanji (1995)- Family entertainment, it's a visually elaborate fantasy about an enchanted board game that opens a magical portal to a jungle universe. Great use of movie computer generated graphics for its time.
Princess Bride, The (1987)- A bedtime story, that comes alive, about a beautiful kidnapped Princess who needs rescuing – and along the way some pretty impressive monsters and giants are encountered. Visually stunning fantasy drama. Memorable.
Labyrinth (1986)- Young Sarah must rescue her baby brother, after she inadvertently conjures the Goblin King who steals the child and brings him to his castle in the middle of a labyrinth. Another magical 80's classic.
Dark Crystal, The (1982)- On another planet, in another time, a mythical world of monsters and wizards and a quest to find a missing shard of crystal that'll restore the balance of the universe. A childhood favourite. No fancy computerised animation here.
Neverending Story, The (1984)- Bastian is a bullied child who escapes into an ancient storybook where he must save the mythical world of Fantasia. A wonderous 80's fantasy film.
