Legend (1985) 33% EDIT “Perhaps the biggest failing of Legend is that it doesn't aspire to be anything better or anything different than the vast lot of fantasy films. It's all very familiar and, regrettably, all very boring.” – Sioux City Journal Apr 17, 2026 Full Review Jerry Maguire (1996) 86% 4/4 EDIT “The performance is so full-bodied, so rich it stands one of the year's best. Cruise, however, is hardly alone in the venture.” – Sioux City Journal Apr 10, 2026 Full Review James and the Giant Peach (1996) 91% 3.5/4 EDIT “Filmmaking doesn't get much sweeter.” – Sioux City Journal Apr 10, 2026 Full Review Victor/Victoria (1982) 85% EDIT “A tribute to Edwards' direction, Lesley Ann Warrne digs her heels in and scores, too.” – Sioux City Journal Apr 8, 2026 Full Review Grease 2 (1982) 22% EDIT “Consistently embarrassing, Grease 2 may please those who didn't see the original, but for the rest of us, it's strictly a case of déjà vu.” – Sioux City Journal Apr 8, 2026 Full Review Melania (2026) 10% 1.5/4 EDIT “This doesn’t give as much as a Fox News Special might or — god forbid — a sit-down interview with one of the network anchors.” – Sioux City Journal Mar 19, 2026 Full Review Send Help (2026) 93% 3/4 EDIT “It’s not a horror film, but "Send Help" certainly shows how we can deal with the horrors in our own lives.” – Sioux City Journal Mar 19, 2026 Full Review Dracula (2025) 54% 2.5/4 EDIT “This is a "Dracula" that stakes a claim to a different heart. It’s closer to the recent "Nosferatu" than you’d think and embraces production design in a way that’s more instructive than it needs to be.” – Sioux City Journal Mar 19, 2026 Full Review Wuthering Heights (2026) 58% 2/4 EDIT “This "Wuthering" is withering.” – Sioux City Journal Mar 12, 2026 Full Review Scream 7 (2026) 30% 1/4 EDIT “But really, this shouldn’t be a wallow in trivia but a new reason to watch. "Scream 6" introduced new characters. Now it’s back to the beginning, where we can easily exit.” – Sioux City Journal Mar 12, 2026 Full Review RoboCop 2 (1990) 31% 1.5/4 EDIT “This is simply a rehash of the first film. It's more violent (if that's possible) and expensive.” – Sioux City Journal Mar 11, 2026 Full Review RoboCop (1987) 84% 2/4 EDIT “Filled with effects a television producer would be embarrassed to call special, "Cop" has a tacky, low-budget appearance that serves to diminish the picture's overall effectiveness.” – Sioux City Journal Mar 5, 2026 Full Review Sense and Sensibility (1995) 97% 4/4 EDIT “Put into play, the actors make Sense and Sensibility a story worth embracing. It's filled with action, touched with pathos and bathed in beauty.” – Sioux City Journal Feb 25, 2026 Full Review Chocolat (2000) 63% 3/4 EDIT “Binoche is a cinematographer's dream. She can look into the camera and convey pages of drama. ” – Sioux City Journal Feb 17, 2026 Full Review Pretty in Pink (1986) 75% EDIT “A limp teen angst film that has none of the inspired joy of its predecessors, Sixteen Candles or The Breakfast Club. ” – Sioux City Journal Feb 14, 2026 Full Review Muppet Treasure Island (1996) 80% 3/4 EDIT “The latest Muppet extravaganza is better than most. Director Brian Henson gives his regulars plenty to do, but lets a group of newcomers shine brightly enough to find an audience.” – Sioux City Journal Feb 12, 2026 Full Review Erin Brockovich (2000) 87% 4/4 EDIT “Erin Brockovich is great, but Julia Roberts is even better.” – Sioux City Journal Feb 6, 2026 Full Review House (1985) 49% EDIT “Director Steve Miner has such fun tossing blobs at Katt he forgets to justify their existence. ” – Sioux City Journal Jan 30, 2026 Full Review My Bloody Valentine (1981) 39% EDIT “Roses are red, violets are blue, this film is bloody, so what else could be new?” – Sioux City Journal Jan 29, 2026 Full Review The American President (1995) 90% 3/4 EDIT “The American President offers plenty of reason to smile (Douglas and Bening are perfect leads) but ultimately it's not a look at the way things are but, rather, the way we'd like them to be. ” – Sioux City Journal Jan 22, 2026 Full Review Misery (1990) 86% 3/4 EDIT “Director Rob Reiner has a wild ride on his hands. He uses Bates to good effect and lets Caan milk every pain for the audience sympathy that it's worth.” – Sioux City Journal Jan 22, 2026 Full Review The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King (2003) 94% 4/4 EDIT “It is the best of the bunch. More important, it's the best picture of the year.” – Sioux City Journal Jan 14, 2026 Full Review Stand by Me (1986) 89% EDIT “"Stand By Me" is guaranteed to bring a tear to your eye and a tug at your heart. It's wonderful.” – Sioux City Journal Jan 14, 2026 Full Review The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers (2002) 95% 4/4 EDIT “The Two Towers may not be the multilayered drama that Fellowship of the Ring was but it's still a masterful piece of filmmaking. ” – Sioux City Journal Jan 13, 2026 Full Review The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring (2001) 91% 4/4 EDIT “It enjoys the advances of a technical age; it revels in an era of storytellers. Best of all, it doesn't seem like a three-hour production. In screen terms, 90 minutes can often be an eternity. Here, 180 somehow don't seem like enough.” – Sioux City Journal Jan 13, 2026 Full Review
