The Lion King
One of my favorite animated Disney movies is The Lion King. It is about all the animals in Africa, concentrating on the lion cub, Simba, who grows into a full-grown lion during the movie. The story is very cute and touching. Beware though; you may need …
Ali movie
Will Smith appears as the legendary boxer Muhammad Ali aka Cassius Clay in this film by Michael Mann. Will Smith is actually very convincing in this serious role, although I personally think he’s more suited for humoristic roles. From the first to the last scene of this film feels …
Munich movie
I definitly had to watch this movie because, apart from being a Stefen Spielberg movie, it was filmed mostly in my native country, Malta. I was particulary impressed by the focus point of the story. This is not a movie about terrorism, but it is a movie about the …

Last Man on Earth movie (1964)
One thing I’ve always had a soft spot for is post appocalyptic films, and the 1964 version of the movie “Last Man on Earth” is just that. In fact, the first thing it reminded me of was the most recent version of the movie “I am Legend” starring the …

Inside Out, 2015 Animation, Comedy Movie

The Other Sister movie
“The Other Sister” is my favorite movie of all time. The acting in this movie couldn’t get much better. This movie features outstanding performances from Juliette Lewis, Diane Keaton, Tom Skerritt, and Giovanni Ribisi. I absolutely adored the expression and naivety played by both Juliette Lewis and Giovanni Ribisi. …
Movie Four Brothers
For such a long time I had been meaning to watch Four Brothers. I didn’t get around to actually watching it a few years after it came out. At the time when it first came out I kept hearing people say how much of a good move it …
The Wedding Ringer - Comedy Movie (2015)
The Wedding Ringer is a Comedy movie that delivers- in parts. Often I was laughing really hard but other times the comedy got a little bland. I did enjoy myself and found the change on the classic ‘loser get’s the hot girl’, interesting.
The story is about a man named Doug …
The Dead Zone (1983) movie
The Dead Zone is an old movie from 1983 but I have only just seen it and it was better than I expected. Although I loved reading Stephen King novels when I was younger they unfortunately do not often translate very well into celluloid, but The Dead Zone …

If you’re looking for a good movie that gives you a plot that’s a little different than the other movies you’ve seen then Disney’s movie “Cow Belles” is one you’ll want to avoid.

Avatar (2009 film)
Making the highest grossing film of all times is James Cameron’s trademark ability in the moviemaking industry. Avatar indeed delivers visual greatness of unseen scope just like Titanic did in 1997. Truth remains that the visuals are not enough to make a movie Number 1 at the box office. …
Wall-e
I watched the Disney movie Wall-e today with my family. I thought it was cute and entertaining. It got to be a little boring in parts but other than that it was a really good movie. If I could sum the movie up in one word it would be …
Wedding Crashers Movie
I recently watched the movie The Wedding Crashers with Vince Vaughan, Owen Wilson and Rachel McAdams. It was a hilariouss storyline with parts that everyone can relate to but still with a few bizarre twists.
Two men are marriage counsellors or divorce lawyers or something along those lines. They are …
Valerie and her week of wonders movie
