Movie: | "The Wanderers" |
| Character: | Clinton | |
| Costars: | Ken Wahl, Karen Allen | |
| GMR Rating: | 3 1/2 out of 4 | |
| VMG Rating and Review: | 4 out of 5. "This enjoyable film is set in the early 1960's and focuses on the world of teenagers. Though it has ample amounts of comedy and excitement, because it deals with life on the streets of the Bronx there is an atmosphere of ever-present danger and fear. The Wanderers are a gang of Italian-American youths who have banded together for safety and good times." | |
| My Comments: | It's been so long since I've seen this movie I barely remember it! | |

Movie: | "Streamers" |
| Character: | Carlyle | |
| Costars: | Matthew Modine, George Dzundra | |
| GMR Rating: | 2 out of 4 | |
| VMG Rating and Review: | 3 1/2 out of 5. "This tense film is about four recruits and two veterans awaiting orders that will send them to Vietnam. The six men are a microcosm of American life in the late 1960's and early 1970's. A powerful, violent drama, this film is not suitable for everyone." | |

Movie: | "The Principal" |
| Character: | Victor Duncan | |
| Costars: | James Belushi, Esai Morales, Louis Gossett Jr. | |
| GMR Rating: | 2 1/2 out of 4 | |
| VMG Rating and Review: | 2 out of 5. "Unrealistic treatment and poor writing sabotage this story of a renegade teacher who, as punishment, is made principal of a high school where all the hardship cases from the other schools are relegated. Belushi doesn't do justice to his role, but Louis Gossett Jr. is good as the school's security chief." | |

Movie: | "The Bikini Car Wax Company" |
| Character: | Uncle Elmer | |
| Costars: | Joe Dusic, Neriah Napaul, Suzanne Brown | |
| GMR Rating: | Woof! | |
| VMG Rating and Review: | Turkey. "When naive midwesterner Joe Dusic agrees to take over his uncle's California car wash, he revives the failing business by employing some of the beaches best babes. Tedious male fantasy." | |

Movie: | "The Five Heartbeats" |
| Character: | Eddie | |
| Costars: | Robert Townsend, Leon | |
| GMR Rating: | 3 out of 4 | |
| VMG Rating and Review: | 5 out of 5. "Everything is just right with writer/director Robert Townsend's musical-comedy-drama about the rise and fall of a 1960's soul group. Townsend gets excellent performances from his actors (especially Michael Wright) and always manages to put an unexpected twist on the often-too-familiar show-biz story." | |

Movie: | "Sugar Hill" |
| Character: | Raynathan Skuggs | |
| Costars: | Wesley Snipes, Clarence Williams III | |
| GMR Rating: | 2 out of 4 | |
| VMG Rating and Review: | 2 1/2 out of 5. "Despite fine performances by Wesley Snipes and Michael Wright, this story of two brothers involved in the Harlem drug trade does not have the punch of 'New Jack City'. Director Leon Ichase has a great eye for detail and settings, but he is unable to add excitement to the all-too-familiar storyline that has Snipes attempting to leave his gangster ways behind." | |

| Character: | Charley | |
| Costars: | James Remar, Elizabeth Longstreth | |
| GMR Rating: | 2 out of 4. | |
| VMG Rating and Review: | Turkey. "Extremely boring. A dying hit man is being chauffeured to Las Vegas to avenge the death of his father; along the way he telephones people to confess past transgressions." | |
