Does This Still Work? episodes

  • 282 Donnie Darko 2001

    It's a time travel movie. It's a mystery. It's a teen drama. Yes, Donnie Darko is many things but do any of them work?

  • 280 WarGames 1983

    3 years before Ferris Bueller took the day off, Mathew Broderick played another high school student who skipped school. But in this movie, instead of spending the day goofing off with his friends, here he brings the world close to thermonuclear war. You can call this Ferris Buller's F*ck Up.

  • 279 Angel Heart 1987

    Mickey Rourke is a PI. Robert DeNiro is his mysterious client and Lisa Bonet….a voodoo priestess or something? Who knows? You get to see her breasts though and that's great if you like that sort of thing. In any case, her breasts still works but does the film?

    Are aliens from outer space attacking the human race considered its own movie genre? Because here is another picture where that happens. This time it's Will Smith, Jeff Goldblum and a cast of dozens turn to experience the pain of encountering a super advanced race from the stars. Clearly, Hollywood and the general public love this plot but does that mean this movie still works?
