A sleeper hit when released in 1986, Stand by Me is based on Stephen King's novella "The Body" (from the book Different Seasons); but it's more about the joys and pains of boyhood friendship than a morbid fascination with corpses. It's about four boys ages 12 and 13 (Wil Wheaton, River Phoenix, Corey Feldman, Jerry O'Connell) who take an overnight hike through the woods near their Oregon town to find the body of a boy who's been missing for days. Their journey includes a variety of scary adventures (including a ferocious junkyard dog, a swamp full of leeches and a treacherous leap from a train trestle), but it's also a time for personal revelations, quiet interludes and the raucous comradeship of best friends. Set in the 1950s, the movie indulges an overabundance of anachronistic profanity and a kind of idealistic, golden-toned nostalgia (it's told in flashback as a story written by Wheaton's character as an adult, played by Richard Dreyfuss). But it's delightfully entertaining from start to finish, thanks to the rapport among its young cast members and the timeless, universal themes of friendship, family and the building of character and self-esteem. Kiefer Sutherland makes a memorable teenage villain and look closely for John Cusack in a flashback scene as Wheaton's now-deceased and dearly missed brother. A genuine crowd-pleaser, this heartfelt movie led director Rob Reiner to even greater success with his next film, The Princess Bride. --Jeff Shannon

Thanks to the ambitious vision of director Tim Burton, the blockbuster hit of 1989 delivers the goods despite an occasionally spotty script, giving the caped crusader a thorough overhaul in keeping with the crime fighter's evolution in DC Comics. Michael Keaton strikes just the right mood as the brooding "Dark Knight" of Gotham City; Kim Basingerplays Gotham's intrepid reporter Vicki Vale; and Jack Nicholson goes wild as the maniacal and scene-stealing Joker, who plots a take over of the city with his lethal Smilex gas. Triumphant Oscar-winning production design by the late Anton Furst turns Batman into a visual feast, and Burton brilliantly establishes a darkly mythic approach to Batman's legacy. Danny Elfman's now-classic score propels the action with bold, muscular verve. --Jeff Shannon

From the moment Yogacise begins--with adorning shots of a heavily made-up Jerry Hall--it's hard to take it seriously. The brainwave of teacher Vimla Lalvani is a combination of the ancient system of yoga and stretching and is intended to help urban stressful living. However, Lalvani and celebrity student Jerry Hall seem to be appealing to an older, wealthy lady whose stress comes from where to lunch. Aside from working out the fusion between yoga and stretching (isn't yoga based on stretching?), the format of the video is difficult to follow. With a multitude of graphics competing for attention, and the constant switch between three set locations (resembling Christmas Grottos), this is stressful viewing. Added to this is the fact that for the majority of the programme Lalvani and Hall face each other--a profile view of the positions is difficult to replicate if you're a beginner. The addition of a voice-over makes it hard to coordinate the movements. Vimla Lalvani is an established teacher with no need for gimmicks and it would have been far more interesting to see the Jerry Hall we don't know, rather than Mick Jagger's ex-missus looking like she's on the set of a hair and make-up ad. --Lorna V
