The film that made me cut my hair short. #admitonedaily #Speed #1990smovies #ticketstub callsheetapp.com/movie/1637

Harrison Ford returns as the best Jack Ryan and once again doesn’t disappoint. Rewatched this recently and it still absolutely holds up. #admitonedaily #ClearAndPresentDanger #1990smovies #ticketstub callsheetapp.com/movie/9331

You know, for kids. #admitonedaily #TheHudsuckerProxy #1990smovies #ticketstub callsheetapp.com/movie/11934

Meg Ryan as an alcoholic wife and mother would probably hit a lot harder for me now than it did in 1994. Back then booze just felt like something you did on a Friday and Saturday night rather than something that could properly derail people’s lives. #admitonedaily #WhenAManLovesAWoman

I love this film, but Arnie never convinces as an ordinary suburban husband. The whole joke is meant to be that he’s an everyman living a secret life, when in reality he looks like he could bench press the family car. Still enormously entertaining though. #admitonedaily #TrueLies #1990smovies

Like The Young Americans, this had all the gloss and energy of an American studio movie, just filtered through a very British, very mid-90s panic about ram-raiding, delinquency and disaffected youth. #admitonedaily #Shopping #1990smovies #ticketstub callsheetapp.com/movie/45549

We’re not going to be able to move for Beatles films when Sam Mendes’ Fab Four quadrilogy hits next year, but they’ll have to be good to top this early 90s take on the Hamburg years. And no one has ever out-Lennoned Ian Hart. #admitonedaily #Backbeat #1990smovies callsheetapp.com/movie/12635

Feels like this was an attempt to turn Ray Liotta into a major mainstream movie star following Goodfellas. Never really happened for him in that way, which was probably for the best as he was such a great character actor. #admitonedaily #NoEscape #1990smovies callsheetapp.com/movie/10447

Funny then. Funny now. #admitonedaily #FourWeddingsAndAFuneral #1990smovies #ticketstub callsheetapp.com/movie/712

I seem to recall my friend Pete loving this movie. I can recall absolutely nothing about it, which is odd because Peter Weir never seemed to make unmemorable films. #admitonedaily #fearless #1990smovies #ticketstub callsheetapp.com/movie/10443

Debra Winger more than holds her own next to Sir Anthony Hopkins in this eminently watchable tearjerker from Sir Dickie Attenborough. #admitonedaily #Shadowlands #1990smovies #ticketstub callsheetapp.com/movie/10445

Robert Altman’s follow-up to The Player featuring another all-star ensemble cast. Seems it was very well received at the time, although its sprawling overlapping stories didn’t really make much of an impression on 23 year old me. #admitonedaily #ShortCuts #1990smovies callsheetapp.com/movie/695

There was definitely a period in the mid-90s where “based on the John Grisham bestseller” was basically its own genre. Big stars, prestige directors, glossy legal thrillers, loads of Washington corridors and morally compromised lawyers. #admitonedaily #ThePelicanBrief #1990smovies #ticketstub

Spielberg reminding everyone he was capable of much more than blockbuster entertainment. #admitonedaily #SchindlersList #1990smovies #ticketstub callsheetapp.com/movie/424

Back before Mr Bates vs The Post Office, it was films like this that turned miscarriages of justice into mainstream entertainment. #admitonedaily #InTheNameOfTheFather #1990smovies #ticketstub callsheetapp.com/movie/7984

Oliver Stone’s follow-up to JFK didn’t really resonate with 23 year old me. I was probably a bit emotionally immature for its heavy themes. #admitonedaily #HeavenAndEarth #1990smovies #ticketstub callsheetapp.com/movie/31642

My overriding memory of this is an almost unrecognisable Sean Penn stealing every scene in a curly blonde wig. Anyone who’s seen One Battle After Another knows he’s still stealing scenes over 30 years later, albeit without the blonde wig. #admitonedaily #CarlitosWay #1990smovies #ticketstub

You can’t beat a good lookie-likey film, and this is a good lookie-likey film. #admitonedaily #Dave #1990smovies #ticketstub callsheetapp.com/movie/11566

Just think how good all Quentin Tarantino films could be if they were directed by Tony Scott instead of Quentin Tarantino. #admitonedaily #trueromance #1990smovies #ticketstub callsheetapp.com/movie/319

London, 1993. Before Britpop, Trainspotting and all the Cool Britannia stuff. The Young Americans kicked things off with a slick, American-style thriller that, for the first time, made London look dangerous and cinematic. Plus that David Arnold/Björk soundtrack. #admitonedaily #theyoungamericans

I remember this being the first John Woo/Chow Yun-Fat film to properly cross over in the west - or at least for me. I don’t think Woo ever bettered it with any of his big-budget Hollywood efforts. #admitonedaily #hardboiled #1990smovies #ticketstub callsheetapp.com/movie/11782

I remember this being something of a surprise blockbuster at the time, and that reputation seems to have endured. I don’t recall being quite as taken with it myself. #admitonedaily #thefugitive #1990smovies #ticketstub callsheetapp.com/movie/5503

Part of that late 80s/90s period when Hollywood made adult romantic comedies into genuine mainstream events rather than disposable streaming filler. #admitonedaily #sleeplessinseattle #1990smovies #ticketstub callsheetapp.com/movie/858

My main memory of this is that Ike Turner really didn’t come out of it very well. An uncompromising biopic from a time before music movies became carefully managed brand extensions. Something the recently released Michael could probably learn from. #admitonedaily #WhatsLoveGottoDowithIt

If they remade this now it would be an eight-part mini-series dragged out over weeks. Sydney Pollack shows that with a tight script and a great cast you can do it all in two and a half hours. #admitonedaily #thefirm #1990smovies #ticketstub callsheetapp.com/movie/37233

Clint Eastwood was 63 when he starred in this Wolfgang Petersen actioner, so there’s still hope for me. #admitonedaily #inthelineoffire #1990smovies #ticketstub callsheetapp.com/movie/9386

Staring Keanu Reeves & Richard Briers. What’s not to like? #admitonedaily #MuchAdoAboutNothing #1990smovies #ticketstub callsheetapp.com/movie/11971

Would have been excited for this because John McTiernan was directing rather than for Arnold. Schwarzenegger blamed the disappointing box office on it opening too close to Jurassic Park, but the fact I’ve never felt the need to rewatch it probably tells a different story. #lastactionhero

As I’ve got older I’ve become more and more claustrophobic. Not sure I could watch this now. #admitonedaily #thevanishing #1990smovies #ticketstub callsheetapp.com/movie/1644

I blagged my way into the press screening for this, so this must have been my second viewing. #admitonedaily #jurassicpark #1990smovies #ticketstub callsheetapp.com/movie/329

I’m only just noticing this recurring early 90s casting formula: legendary actor, respected star, young upcoming talent. Following on from Mad Dog and Glory, here’s another. This time Hopper, Cage and Lara Flynn Boyle. Again, not a film that’s particularly stayed with me. #redrockwest

Yet another early 90s crime film. I remember wanting to see this for the cast, but also because it was directed by John McNaughton, coming off the stark, uncompromising Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer. A very different kind of film - lighter, a bit offbeat, and sadly, forgettable.

Everyone knows the best vampire film is Fright Night. Don’t recall this one doing anything for me, despite the AAA cast and crew. #admitonedaily #dracula #1990smovies #ticketstub callsheetapp.com/movie/6114

Pretty sure this is the only time I’ve seen this movie, and pretty sure I liked it at the time. Looks like there’s a sequel on the way later this year with Lily James and Pierce Brosnan. Count me in. #admitonedaily #cliffhanger #1990smovies #ticketstub callsheetapp.com/movie/9350

If you’re only inspired to watch one film from Admit One Daily, make it this one. Wonderful film. Criminally underappreciated. It’s a warm, affectionate and funny film about cinema itself. #admitonedaily #matinee #1990smovies #ticketstub callsheetapp.com/movie/25389

I distinctly remember wanting to see this because it was written by Robert Zemeckis and Bob Gale rather than for Walter Hill or the cast. Think I was disappointed by it. #admitonedaily #trespass #1990smovies #ticketstub callsheetapp.com/movie/22004

Didn’t I already post this one? #admitonedaily #groundhogday #1990smovies #ticketstub callsheetapp.com/movie/137

Pretty hard one to forget this one considering the subject matter and the harrowing plane crash that opens the movie. #admitonedaily #Alive #1990smovies #ticketstub callsheetapp.com/movie/7305

Another film I had to look up on Wikipedia just to remember. Seems it was quite well received at the time. Might be worth a rewatch. #admitonedaily #deepcover #1990smovies #ticketstub callsheetapp.com/movie/20676

Robert Downey Jr is great in this and it looks stunning, but the best thing about this movie is John Barry’s gorgeous score. #admitonedaily #chaplin #1990smovies #ticketstub callsheetapp.com/movie/10435

Apparently this is now a “gay cult classic”. At the time I was there for Robert Zemeckis and the groundbreaking VFX. Feels more relevant now than ever. #botox #fillers #ozempic #admitonedaily #deathbecomesher #1990smovies #ticketstub callsheetapp.com/movie/9374

I love a good comedy caper with an all-star cast, and this is one of the best of them. #admitonedaily #sneakers #1990smovies #ticketstub callsheetapp.com/movie/2322

Harrison Ford was the best Jack Ryan. Both this and Clear and Present Danger are great films. #admitonedaily #patriotgames #1990smovies #ticketstub callsheetapp.com/movie/9869

Trailer for this looks great! Reckon this is worth a rewatch. Screenwriter Jeffrey Boam died way too young. #admitonedaily #lethalweapon #1990smovies #ticketstub callsheetapp.com/movie/943

I’ve got a soft spot for David Fincher’s debut. I don’t think it’s as bad as its reputation suggests. It manages to feel like its own thing while still sitting firmly in the Alien universe. I’ve never seen the Assembly Cut, but apparently it’s now available on HBO Max. #admitonedaily #alien

Who knew this Jean-Claude Van Damme/Dolph Lundgren vehicle was directed by Roland Emmerich? A man who made a career out of prioritising spectacle over character and story. Pretty sure this one had neither. I probably loved it at the time. #admitonedaily #universalsoldier #1990smovies #ticketstub

This was billed as the return of Robert Altman, but it was the first I’d heard of him - I hadn’t even seen his ill-fated Popeye. I do remember enjoying it though, and the sheer number of big-name stars popping up was unusual - not something I’d really experienced since The Cannonball Run.

Probably my favourite Batman film, and yes, that includes Nolan’s efforts. It improves on every aspect of the original. Like a darker take on the campness of the old TV series. DeVito and Pfeiffer make wonderfully contrasting baddies. Plus, penguins. #admitonedaily #batman #1990smovies

I think I always found the Wayne’s World schtick a bit cringe. #admitonedaily #waynesworld #1990smovies #ticketstub callsheetapp.com/movie/8872

I have no memory of this movie other than that they said the book was unfilmable. I'm sure I would have enjoyed Cronenberg doing Cronenberg though. #admitonedaily #nakedlunch #1990smovies #ticketstub callsheetapp.com/movie/2742
