Sahara's adventure
15 September 2000
Enjoyable adventure in the Sahara's desert with a powerful international cast but the movie is very long and it is one of the disadvantages of the film, also, the star, Michael York ( "Austin Powers" ) doesn't convince in his role and this is strange because he is a good actor.

On the other hand, the special effects are very poor. All of this is supplied for a fabulous cast. Good performances of Soul, Bosé, McNamara and, of course, Ben Kingsley. Special mention for two women: Andie MacDowell, great as Anthea, a year before of "Green card", and the beautiful spanish actress, Ana Obregón ("Bolero", "La vida alegre", "La mirada del otro"... ), in a small role as Tamamet.

Finally, this is a good movie of adventures and original cast in a graceful place, the desert of Sahara.

Sleepy Hollow (1999)
10/10
Tim Burton attacks!
29 February 2000
Tim Burton's film is a fabulous horror movie that is involved in a lugubrious and magic ambient. The performers are excellent; Johnny Deep, who worked with Burton in two occasions earlier, is great as Ichabob Crane and he is very well accompanied by Christina Ricci. Only she could be Katrina, she is a mysterious woman and she is really a strange beauty. Miranda Richardson ("Tom and Vic") is brilliant like the perverse stepmother with her gelid beauty.

Special mention for Christopher Walken (the headless man) and Christopher Lee (always excellent).

Burton sets a gloomy atmosphere; the humour, horror and sensuality are interlaced in it.

Earthquake in New York (1998 TV Movie)
9/10
Irregular movie with a great actress
25 February 2000
Earthquake in New York is an irregular film with a poor special effects but this film is salved by the presence of Melissa Sue Anderson, she is a great actress and she is perfect like Marilyn Blake. The movie had been better if Melissa had been the star. The TV-series, "Aftershock: Earthquake in New York" is better although Melissa don' t appear.
