Search: Starring Paul Sorvino

Although it's not entirely successful as a film, its balance of comedy and tragedy serves to demystify a part of life too often hidden away.

Not a particularly impressive film.

Aided by a bug-eyed, intensely committed turn from Al Pacino, Cruising is a startling and haunting film.

This is Scorsese at the top of his game.

The script (Steve Galluccio, Emile Gaudreault)... is sporadically funny, although lacks bite, and there are too many safe options.

Every time we are afforded a glimpse of the outrageous figure, the film crackles with energy.

As wilfully messy as all of Cohen’s work but his wicked sense of humour, budget-enforced ingenuity and ability to draw off-kilter performances from unlikely thesps shines through.

Danes deftly avoids making her character appear at all weak or insipid, instead showing us a young woman of great courage and agency, in spite of how little control Juliet seems to have over her life.
