Without second guitarist David Knopfler, Dire Straits began to move away from its roots rock origins into a jazzier variation of country-rock and singer/songwriter folk-rock. Naturally, this means that Mark Knopfler's ambitions as a songwriter are growing, as the storytelling pretensions of Making Movies indicate. Fortunately, his skills are increasing, as the lovely "Romeo and Juliet," "Tunnel of Love," and "Skateaway" indicate. And Making Movies is helped by a new wave-tinged pop production, which actually helps Knopfler's jazzy inclinations take hold. The record runs out of steam toward the end, closing with the borderline offensive "Les Boys," but the remainder of Making Movies ranks among the band's finest work. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine, Rovi

mark knopfler just can't go wrong. it's another excellent dire straits album. a bit short with only 7 tracks, but if you like their music it's definitely worth it to add it to the collection, especially because the classics "romeo and juliet: and "solid rock" are on it. this is more than just a few songs strung together, the songs form a whole work of art. wonderful guitar work and mark knopfler's voice brings the lyrics to life.
