Movies starring Armand Assante

Private Benjamin (1980)

109 mins     Comedy      

"Private Benjamin" is one of those movies which I haven't watched in years yet I have fond memories of it back in the 80s when I last watched it. Oh what a shame that time has not been kind to "Private Benjamin" as whilst it'...

Why Me? (1984)

100 mins     Drama, TV Movie      

Here is an important thing for those who don't know "Why Me?" is based on a true story and as such it is the story of two people; Leola and James and their relationship. But when I say relationship that word encompasses many ...

Q & A (1990)

132 mins     Crime, Drama      

"Q & A" sees director Sidney Lumet return to one of his favourite stomping grounds with a storyline surrounding yet another dirty cop and like his previous movies which deal with the subject this is another thoroughly enterta...

Hoffa (1992)

140 mins     Biography, Crime, Drama      

I like movies which can be split into three things, I find three things is enough to entertain me with out becoming too complicated and "Hoffa" has three things. The first of those three things when it comes to "Hoffa" is its...

Judge Dredd (1995)

96 mins     Adventure , Crime, Sci-Fi      

Released in 1995 "Judge Dredd" is not your typical big screen adaptation of a comic book character, or at least not in the sense of the sort of movies which have steadily filled the cinemas in more recent years. No "Judge Dre...

Striptease (1996)

112 mins     Comedy, Drama, Thriller      

Whilst Demi Moore topless and pole dancing is an obvious selling point, "Striptease" doesn't really have much else going for it. In fact it is a little strange, maybe misplaced, combining moments of humour with drama and I su...

Gotti (1996)

116 mins     Biography, Crime, Drama, TV Movie      

Look, I am no expert on the Mafia, I haven't done extensive reading on the various people who have been known to be part of the family but I do love mob movies. For that reason I cannot say whether or not "Gotti", the 1996 ma...

The Road to El Dorado (2000)

89 mins     Adventure , Animation, Comedy      

The worst movies for me as a movie reviewer are not those which are terrible but those which are forgettably ordinary and Disney's "The Road to El Dorado" is one such movie. I hate to say this but it almost feels like when Di...

Two for the Money (2005)

122 mins     Drama, Sport, Thriller      

The charisma of Al Pacino, the southern tones of Matthew McConaughey and the sexiness of Rene Russo, "Two for the Money" certainly has talent and that talent works because they draw you into this story of sports betting. But ...

American Gangster (2007)

169 mins     Crime, Drama      

I've heard Ridley Scott's "American Gangster" being called "The Godfather" for the 21st century, but sadly it isn't, it doesn't even come close to the epic superiority of Francis Ford Coppola's genre defining movie. But that ...

La Linea - The Line (2009)

La Linea - The Line (2009) Ray Liotta stars as an addassin sent to Tijuana to eliminate to eliminate the new leader of a drus cartel...
