I’ve seen 70 of the 285 films on the chart, not bad I suppose considering most of the films were rubbish that year. But I do have a fondness for the bad as well as the good, depends on how bad.

My favorites include –
American History X

Big Lebowski ,The
Blade

Deep Rising
Elizabeth
Faculty ,The
Godzilla (1998)

You’ve Got Mail
Top rated films I haven’t seen include – Happiness, The General and A Simple Plan.
My most watched films from that year I would say are – Armageddon, Godzilla, Star Trek Insurrection, Lost in Space, Blade and Antz.
The best film of 1998 is Saving Private Ryan (and the most successful) but it’s not a film I watch often, and the other big WWII film of 1998 The Thin Red Line, even less often. I have them both on blu-ray.
Good stuff Bruce. These pages are getting longer and longer, have your yearly charts reached 300 films yet? Vote Up!
Hey Steve…..thanks for the feedback on our latest yearly page. Only 70 seen? I figured your total would be closer to triple digits. I have seen all of your favorites….with Lock Stock and Two Smoking Barrells, Armageddon, Dark City, You’ve Got Mail, Saving Private Ryan and Bug’s Life being my favorites. WoC has two favorites from this year…Bug’s Life and Mulan. Happiness is a bleak depressing movie that is hard to watch…a one and done movie for me….well done but not a movie I recommend. I have not seen The General. A Simple Plan would be the one I would recommend seeing…though the book is much better.
The Thin Red Line has some great parts (Nick Nolte is amazing in the movie), it looks amazing, has a great cast….yet somehow it bores me when I watch it. This yearly reviews could be over 300 movies long….heck they could be almost 500 movies long…but after a while…..the movies did so little at the box office and they feature unknown (currently) actors…I have decided to not include them. At this point….I basically look at the Top 50 (first table) when I look at this pages for my own entertainment purposes. Good feedback.
I saw 62. 17 of top 22, I missed the anime surprisingly. not a good year for great movies for me. 10s and favorites: Shakespeare in love, saving private ryan (a happier ending away from best war movie ever), Armageddon(over a billion world wide box office). 9 and favorites: something about mary, you’ve got mail. 9s not favorites: thin red line, Elizabeth, primary colors, bulworth, playing by heart, 1900, stepmom, the negotiator , lethal weapon 4. I might have overrated some of these because of paucity of 10s this year. hidden gems: American history x (a 7), big Lebowski (a 7), mercury rising (an 8 with the bruce). a non UMR listing , who am I, a Jackie chan movie with one of the funniest car chase scene ever (an 8).
Hey bob cox…..62 is not too bad. 17 of 22 is much more impressive. I think I enjoyed 1998 much more than you. The summer of 1998 was a battle between potential blockbusters….Armageddon eventually won that battle….as it earned a ton of money. Godzilla did ok….and Deep Impact got the critical glory. Knowing of that battle…..will make the scene in Armageddon where a dog attacks a Godzilla toy much more funny. I will have to check out Who Am I….maybe that car chase scene is on You Tube. Good feedback as always.
I have seen 13 [or 43.4%] of the top 30 highest domestic grossers in the above charts. My own Top 20 faves in no particular order are as follows [CR=Cogerson Rating]
Fallen
A Civil Action
Mask of Zorro-CR 73%
Elizabeth
A Perfect Murder-CR 58%
Primary Colours
The Work Horse Whisperer [Joel?]70%-I am watching Redford’s The Natural now!
Godzilla
The Faculty- I saw this one in America on my visit the US
Gods and Monsters
You’ve Got Mail
Man in the Iron Mask-49%
Enemy of the State
Shakespeare in Love-83%
The Replacement Killers
Sliding Doors
Mighty JoeL Young-54%
Twilight
Urban Legend-47%
Little Voice
Out of all of those films, THE highlight for me was Sir Maurice Micklewhite defying his tormentors by drunkenly singing Roy Orbison’s ‘It’s [f******] Over’ – magic! like this painstakingly comprehensive review. Sir Maurice deservedly won a Golden Globe for that mesmerising performance, demonstrating once again that he is up there with Brando, Nicholson, DeNiro and all those perceived great Yankee actors. I have no Globes to give out but I can award a hearty “Voted Up!” to this fine piece of Cogerson work.
Hey Bob….thanks for sharing your thoughts on our 1998 page….only ten more yearly reviews to go. I have seen all of your favorites..I especially enjoyed You’ve Got Mail (Hanks shines in that one), Twilight (need a trailer page on that one) and A Civil Action (one of Travolta’s best roles). I agree that Caine shines in Little Voice. Still shocked that performance did not get him an Oscar nomination…if memory serves me correctly….he was a favorite to win an Oscar for the role…that was of course before the nominations came out. Gladly, he only had to wait one more year to get that second Oscar. Good stuff.
HI BRUCE Thanks for your feedback. I have explained to you that I provide more stories about Brando than about actors whom I find more entertaining than he, like Widmark and Peck, because I have more information at my fingertips about Marlon. An example of how Brando trivia often fell into my lap without my having to search for it is the S o Bob apple story that I gave you.
However I don’t’ think that have explained to you that the sixties and early seventies were my formative years as an adult moviegoer. The B westerns of the fifties were well behind me and the ones made in the sixties were fewer and in my view not as good so sir Maurice – plain Mr Micklewhite then – was one of the actors who filled the vacuum with films like Alfie, Zulu, Gambit, Italian Job, Get Carter, Sleuth and especially the Harry Palmer trilogy Ipcress File, Funeral in Berlin and Billion Dollar Brain.
I loved Harry Palmer as a character as he was a great “ordinary Joe” contrast to the showy, glamorous, smart-ass, womanizing Bond type spy. In addition Harry seemed to me more his own man than the deferential-to-authority Bond-
“I was depending on you to be an insubordinate b*****d Palmer.” [Col Ross, Harry’s spy superior]
Accordingly my nostalgia for the Caine of that 1960s – early 1970s period and his films then always encourage me to take advantage of every opportunity to offer comment on this site about Sir M and his work. Sir M is of course a fine actor to boot.
On IMDB’s 2012’s “ultimate” list of the Top 100 greatest male actors of all time Sir M is a high 14th, up there in the Top 15 with the more publicized Nicholson, Brando, Tracy, Day-Lewis and Olivier. Don’t “arise Sir Maurice!” – take a bow! [He is said to be worth $75 million, traditionally great for a British artist
Hey Bob….thanks for the explanation of your “sixties and early seventies were my formative years as an adult moviegoer”. For me it would be the 1980s. I started the decade at the age of 12….by the end of the decade I was 22, married with one child. During that 10 year span, my movie taste really developed….led by Harrison Ford, Michael Caine, Kurt Russell and Paul Newman. Bruce Willis was a late addition to the party….at least on the movie side of things. Good feedback as always.
HI BRUCE
Thanks for the information about your own formative years.
I knew about all the guys you’ve mentioned except Kurt. That did surprise me as I cannot recall you drooling over him the way you have over the others and of course over the King of Critics too!
Hey Bob….I have been a fan of Kurt Russell for almost 50 years. I remember his Disney movies as a kid…..then his Dexter Riley teenage Disney movies. I knew him as the jungle boy on an episode of Gilligan’s Island. By the time he graduated to R rated movies like Used Cars (a very funny movie) and Escape From New York (a sci-fi classic) I was at the age where I was trying to sneak into movies even though I was a little too young. He might not be a Top 3 favorite….but if he is not in the Top 5….he is pretty close to it.
My Top 10. Caine, Willis and Grant in Top 3. Ford, Russell, Hanks, Wayne would be fighting for the last 2 spots in the Top 5…..while Bateman, Bale, Bloom, Nelson and probably a few others rotate in the Top10. Kurt is one of the few that has more than one UMR page. He has his movie ranking page….and an entire page on facts about him. He has had a wonderful life…filled with many of the most famous people to walk this earth. Walt Disney, Elvis, Lady Diane, James Stewart and UFOs. Good comment.
I moved to Bayside in 1998, bought a computer and started listing the films I saw in Queens (Bayside is in Queens). This is all the films I saw in theaters I typed in back then. I did not list any films I had seen in the Bronx or Manhattan after the letter H (those before were done in retrospect which I stopped in H because it was too annoying going through afterward). Until 2002 I still saw films in the city and the Bronx where mom lived. The last film I saw in the Bronx was Clockstoppers in 2002 and the last in the city was 2004’s The In-Laws. So this is an incomplete list but I could probably do it from memory.

Jane Austin’s Mafia was the first film I saw in Bayside after I moved in. The first film I actually saw in Bayside was 1997’s The Spanish Prisoner which had expanded in 1998 and I saw was apartment shopping. The Avengers is the first film I spent as high as $9 on and it stunk.

Hey Dan….it might be an incomplete list….but it is still a massive and impressive list. That is a lot of movies seen in The Bronx and Manhattan. Sorry you had to pay all the higher prices that are associated with living in New York. But….you do get the opportunity to see every movie ever made on the big screen. Living in Chesapeake….that is not an option….we have one theater that plays “art movies”….and even then they only play one art movie on two days during the week. The weekend they show more popular movies. I would say our tally count of movies watched would be close…though I would still give you the edge. Thanks as always for sharing this information…and remember…you are The Man!
I have seen 9 films from 1998. Only one of them is in the top 10. I will answer this review and if over 5 films I will answer 1999. I was in my upper level courses at university and didn’t have time for movies.
The HIGHEST rated movie I have seen is Shakespeare in Love.

Hey Flora….even though these movies seem like recent movies…at 21 years old….they are almost antiques….which some people say happens at 25 years old. Overall I have seen 114 of these movies….47 of the Top 50. 84 of the top 100. Then only 30 of the bottom 182. Your tally is small compared to some of the older yearly reviews….but still…more than many people. Of your favorites….loved Pleasantville and like Little Voice…..but I loved Caine’s performance. You are so right….why is Caine not listed as a co-star. Bad database…bad database. I will fix that error as soon as I finish this comment. Of your nine…the only one I have not seen is The Adventures of Sebastian Cole…and honestly…I have never heard of it before reading your comment. WoC most have uploaded that movie when she was doing some research on Box Office Mojo. Good stuff….these yearly reviews are coming towards the end. Thanks for the feedback.
Michael Caine is now listed as a co-star in Little Voice…thanks again Flora.
