Andy Webb of The Movie Scene wrote: *"Christmas Eve is simply brilliant; on one hand it is typical and heart warming, on the other hand it isn't completely stereotypical. But most importantly it features the brilliant Loretta Young and Trevor Howard showing those who watch this what is missing when it comes to so called stars now."*

## Critical Reception

The Chicago Sun-Times said: *"Blue Sky is such an ungainly mixture of politics, emotion and nostalgia that it's a wonder the movie works at all, but it does."*

David Ansen from Newsweek wrote: *"The melodrama can be forgiven. What lingers in the mind is [Tony] Richardson's hard-won, grown-up humanism."*

The Austin Chronicle gave the film a three-star rating, stating: *". With Blue Sky, [Tony] Richardson has created a strong family with a tangled shared history. Each of these characters comes to life on the screen under Richardson's meticulous direction and through the accomplished performances of [Jessica] Lange, [Tommy Lee] Jones, and the supporting cast."*

Kevin McManus from the Washington Post said: *"[Tommy Lee] Jones alone makes "Blue Sky" worth watching. But there's much else to savor, most notably [Jessica] Lange's portrayal of a self-absorbed, early-fortyish woman."*

Time Out said that Tommy Lee Jones and Jessica Lange *"deliver their blazing best, helped by an intelligent, unsparing script."*

TV Guide Magazine wrote: *"Blue Sky is a welcome alternative view of domesticity in a field increasingly devoted to half-baked family values."*

Derek Winnert.com stated: *"Though its heart is in the right place, Boardwalk could be seen as racially and possibly even morally dodgy. But, as drama, it is credibly written made and performed, and certainly co-writer-director [Stephen] Verona believes in it. With its marvellous, crumbling Coney Island locations, it is also atmospheric and crisply filmed."*

MonsterHunter said: *"Child of Glass is the sort of movie you needed to see at a certain age when it first came out to have anything other than a passing interest in it. Viewers who became fans 30 years ago will no doubt defend it as good clean moderately scary family fun."*

## Box Office

"Bliss" grossed $54,547 during its opening weekend and $294,064 worldwide.

## Critical Reception

Roger Ebert from the Chicago Sun-Times wrote: *"Bliss is a daring movie not because of the sexuality it contains, but because it is so intent about it. You can snicker about anything sexual in our society, but sex when it's taken seriously makes people squirmy, and here's a movie that's grown-up, thoughtful and surprisingly erotic."*

Writing for Entertainment Weekly, Lisa Schwarzbaum called the film *"an eyeball-rollingly self-serious treatise."*

The San Francisco Chronicle said: *"Bliss is remarkably unsexy. It has the clinical tone of a sex manual and the gloss of a Playboy pictorial -- the lighting gives the actors' flesh that same artificial sheen. All of this contributes to making the film seem cold despite its subject matter."*

Nathan Rabin from The A.V. Club wrote: *"While Bliss is nowhere near a good movie, it manages to maintain a strangely soothing, hypnotic mood for the first hour or so."*

Variety magazine said: *"Bliss is a pretentious, borderline risible look at the power of sex and the potential of sexual healing. Despite the self-seriousness of the approach however, the film undeniably holds the interest due to its subject matter, and features a central performance by Terence Stamp that simultaneously comes off as mesmerizing and as an inside joke."*

TV Guide Magazine called it *"a sublimely silly movie undone by its lack of confidence in its smutty convictions."*

David Parkinson from Radio Times said: *"An accomplished cast is rather wasted in this unexceptional TV-movie drama"*, adding: *"While [Lorraine] Bracco's decision to abandon her perfect life and begin again in a renovated lighthouse detaches the plot from its semblance of reality and leaves it to drift into fanciful melodrama."*

Lisa Marie Bowman from Through the Shattered Lens wrote: *"Okay, Cage Without A Key is not exactly Orange Is The New Black. What it is, however, is a time capsule of the time it was made. Everything from the slang to the clothes to the attitudes to the squishy, upper class liberalism of Valerie’s lawyer practically screams 1970s."*

The St. Louis Post-Dispatch wrote that the film is *"filmed with grace and style by cinematographer Bill Pope, is definitely a guilty pleasure, but more the latter than the former."*

The Miami Herald wrote: *"Blank Check turns schmaltzy toward the end by borrowing gimmicks from the Home Alone movies and resorting to the cavalry-to-the-rescue formula ending. This is de rigueur Disney, best when it's kept light and fantastical."*

Joe Leydon from Variety magazine said: *"Blank Check wallows in the exuberance of excess so enthusiastically, for so long, that even naive youngsters may have trouble buying pic’s ultimate “money can’t buy happiness” message."*

The Seattle times wrote: *"Blank Check will get a few big laughs from kids, but that doesn't stop this vapid, morally bankrupt and wretchedly written Disney comedy from being genuinely disgusting."*

The Austin Chronicle gave "Blank Check" a one-star rating, writing: *" With an unbelievable premise, Blank Check does little to fill out its bare bones structure. Indeed, there are several montage sequences that unfurl as if it were padding for a movie that needed to be extended to feature-length. Actually, all the characters we see onscreen try their hardest to convince us of their genuineness. Only thing is that they didn't succeed in convincing themselves."*

On Rotten Tomatoes, "Critters 4" has an audience score of 18%.

Caryn James from The New York Times noted that the film *"misses the sharpness and dark humor that the director and co-writer Tom Holland brought to the original."*

The Austin Chronicle said: *"Director [Jack] Bender has fashioned a film without any surprises, though after the first two films, anyone would be hard-pressed to make audience members jump."'*

The Miami Herald said: *"Though this sequel is not nearly as violent as Child's Play 2, it's every bit as vulgar and preposterous, funny despite itself and vicious, too. It is, in short, of interest only to those too young to see it."*
