A perfect marriage of novel but incisive writing, acting and direction, Big is the story of a 12-year-old boy who wishes he were older, and wakes up one morning as a30-year-old man (Tom Hanks). The script by Gary Ross(Dave) and Anne Spielberg finds some unexpected ways of attacking obvious issues of sex, work, and childhood friendships, and in all of these things the accent is on classy humour and great sensitivity. Hanks is remarkable in the lead, at times hilarious (reacting to caviar just as a 12-year-old would) and at others deeply tender. Penny Marshall became a first-rate filmmaker with this 1988 work. --Tom Keogh

“Everything is more intense... Like your brain’s taking it all in knowing that it might be the last cloud or the last blade of grass you’ll ever see...” An epic historical drama spanning the five years of the First World War as seen through the eyes of two ordinary young soldiers: one British one German. Set against battles on the iconic Western front alongside the lesser explored but equally epic struggles in the East the story charts Tommy and Michael’s coming of age on opposite sides of Europe’s bloody battlefields. They each find love friendship and courage amidst the horror of ‘the war to end all wars.’ Scripted by award winning writer Tony Jordan (Life On Mars Hustle) The Passing Bells is part of the BBC’s commemorations on the centenary of WWI a conflict that cost millions of lives and re-shaped the map of the world.
Steven Seagal can consider himself lucky if he ever makes a better movie than this one, which was appropriately dubbed "Die Hard on a battleship" when released in 1992. Seagal handles the heroic duties with his usual wooden efficiency, but the movie's greatest assets are a punchy script and the scene-stealing performances of Tommy Lee Jones and Gary Busey. The two play leaders of a terrorist group who take over the venerable battleship USS Missouri during its final commissioned voyage. They're crazed psychotics who seize control of the ship's nuclear arsenal, but they don't know that Seagal--as the ship's cook, no less--is a former Navy hero, lurking in the shadows and waiting to spoil their nefarious scheme. Director Andrew Davis (The Fugitive) helms the action with skilful style, and as the cheesecake stripper who proves handy with a hand grenade, Playboy Playmate-turned-actress Erika Eleniak gives Seagal another reason to strut his macho stuff. Under Siege is hormonal hokum for gun-happy viewers, but as action movies go, this one's a definite guilty pleasure. --Jeff Shannon
