Note: Picture suffers with bad tracking quality throughout.

Gene Siskel and Roger Ebert reviews "Point of No Return" (An incredible action thriller and an American remake of Luc Besson's "Le Femme Nikita" with Bridget Fonda, Gabriel Byrne, Dermot Mulroney and Harvey Kietel. Directed By: John Badham.); "CB4" (A hilarious comedy parody of several hip-hop and rap artists from director, Tamara Davis. Starring: Chris Rock, Chris Elliot, Allan Payne and Phil Hartman.); "Fire in the Sky" (An intense Sci-Fi Drama/Thriller set in 1975 where Travis Walton was abducted by a UFO and 4 boys are the eyewitness on his story which led the whole town skeptical with disbelief. Directed By: Robert Lieberman. Starring: D.B Sweeney, Robert Patrick, Peter Berg, James Garner, Henry Thomas, Craig Sheffer, Kathleen Wilhoite and Noble Willingham. I saw it in theaters and I still remember getting creeped out on the scene where Aliens performing a gruesome and torture surgery on Travis.); "Barbarians at the Gate" (An HBO movie about the leverage corporate buyout on RJR Nabisco in 1988 from CEO and president, F. Ross Johnson. Based on the book By: Bryan Burrough and John Helyar. Starring: James Garner, Jonathan Pryce, and Peter Riegert.) and "Il Ladro Di Bambini: Stolen Child".

Video Pick of the Week: Siskel's pick is Luc Besson's "Le Femme Nikita" (1990). Starring: Anne Parillaud, Jean Reno, Tcheky Karyo, Jeanne Moreau and Marc Duret. And a recap of Today's program. (Yes, the "If We Picked The Winners" episode would have "The Crying Game" controversy as reveal by Siskel!)
