remember The Rock? we watched it again the other night. it was great. lots of suspense, good music, and not bad acting.
sometimes when you watch a movie years after it was made, it really stinks. even if you loved it before. i remember thinking It's A Mad Mad Mad Mad World was terrific. then we watched it about thirty years later. double raspberries.
but a number of movies hold up pretty well -- Jesus Christ Superstar (1973), Star Wars (1977), Arsenic and Old Lace (1944), Grease (1978), Man From Snowy River (1982), Princess Bride (1987), Roxanne (1987) and of course many more.
take a minute and tell me the ones you still like ...
