Yes Prime Minister: A Conflict Of Interest (1987) ***

A great episode in the series, most memorable for this excellent summary of the British press: 

Hacker: I know exactly who reads the papers. The Daily Mirror is read by people who think they run the country; The Guardian is read by people who think they ought to run the country; The Times is read by the people who actually do run the country; The Daily Mail is read by the wives of the people who run the country; The Financial Times is read by people who own the country; The Morning Star is read by people who think the country ought to be run by another country; and The Daily Telegraph is read by people who think it is. 

Sir Humphrey: Oh, and Prime Minister, what about the people who read The Sun? 

Bernard: Sun readers don't care who runs the country as long as she's got big tits.

Someone To Watch Over Me (1987) **

Tense, but unexceptional film about a policeman protecting a murder witness.

Kenny (1987) **

Stylistically crude, but interesting film about a young handicapped boy from Pittsburg.

King Lear (1987) **

The weakest of Jean-Luc Godard's seven films from the 1980's. Still interesting and original. But lacking a spark. With Molly Ringwald, Julie Delpy, Woody Allen, Jean-Luc Godard and Burgess Meredith.

Black Widow (1987) *

Unmemorable film about a female serial killer.

Three Men And A Baby (1987) *

A Hollywood remake of "Trois hommes et un couffin" (1985). Far less impressive than the original.

Throw Momma From The Train (1987) *

A singularly unfunny brack comedy directed by Danny DeVito.

Critical Condition (1987) *

Richard Pryor's career took a nosedive after this disappointing comedy about an escaped convict pretending to be a doctor.

Empire Of The Sun (1987) *

Incredibly tedious film set in a Japanese internement camp during World War II. Probably Spielberg's worst picture.

Like Father Like Son (1987) *

An incredibly tedious comedy about a doctor (Dudley Moore) switching personalities with his teenage son (Kirk Cameron). There isn't one funny joke in the whole film.

Outrageous Fortune (1987) *

Boring film starring Bette Midler and Shelley Long.
