The Disappointments Room (Horror Movie)
I guess this film lives up to its title, it is indeed rather disappointing. It’s boring and not scary at all.
First of all, the plot is very overused. Dana is suffering from depression and is on medication after the lost of her baby daughter. Her doctor recommended that she moved …
Halloween By: Rob Zombie
When Rob Zombie’s remake of the classic “Halloween” came out in August 2007, being a big fan of the original “Halloween” film by John Carpenter, I was really looking forward to seeing it. Thought it was an interesting spin on the story to show more of what Michael Myers …
Star Wars: Episode IV - A New Hope
It is hard to believe that A New Hope is the first Star Wars film ever, although when it comes to chronological sequencing, it is actually the middle of the whole six-film lineup. I can still remember when this film was first shown, I think everyone in the …
War of the Roses movie
“War of the Roses,” some fun for the tears, the other leads to despair, and still others disgusted by the switch. Anyway, the film is a masterwork of satire of people who are divorced who have to gain your are full of ideas to hinder their lives.
Starring Kathleen Turner …
The Ultimate Gift Movie Starring Jason Fuller
Recently, my interest in horror movies has weaned a bit and I have had a shift towards inspirational movies that have a financial quest inclination to them, with the most recent delight being a movie called ‘The Ultimate Gift’, starring Drew Fuller.
From the very first moment I was completely …
Arthur 2011 movie
I just recently saw the movie Arthur (2011). This stars the actors Russel Brand, the famous Helen Mirren and Jennifer Garner. Apparently, this has a low rating in IMDB but I loved this movie! People have been comparing it to the old Arthur movie which stars Dudley Moore. I …

Spirited Away (2001 film)
One of my favorite Japanese directors Hayao Miyazaki, has done a wonderful job in creating the 2001 Japanese animation “Spirited Away”. The characters in this movie are relatable and ones that I quickly fell in love with, and I am sure that many other people can truly enjoy this …
Prince of Persia,The Sands of Time (2010)
I saw this movie 2 weeks after it came out, because there were a lot of people and the queue lines were long in the theaters!
I absolutely love the Prince of Persia games, and I have played almost all of them except for the latest one, Prince of …
Zorro,movie
Action-packed and fast-paced. If that’s what you are looking for, you wouldn’t be disapppointed. The movies moves at a breathless pace through a rather convoluted plot about some ancient secret society wanting to destroy the fledging United States of America. The plot hinges on transporting some explosives to the …
Constantine (2005)
This movie is quite disappointing. It really leads human thinking to nowhere. It’s simple as this, if you’re not for heaven, you go to hell. There are only two destinations. But this movie gives an exception to one man. There is no such thing …
Flags of Our Fathers, Clint Eastwood Movie

Movie Independence Day (1996)
Independence Day is one of my all-time favorite films. Some of my favorite actors are in this movie, including Jeff Goldblum - who, as usual, plays a highly intelligent guy with answers to very important questions - and Will Smith who adds an incredible amount of action to the …
Funny Games movie
A highly provocative film by the german controversial filmmaker Michael Haneke. This director keeps shocking the audience with his unpredictable narratives, which aren’t necessarily showing much of violence, but in a way Haneke challenges the viewers and shows no compassion for his characters. In Funny Games we see two …
The Forbidden Kingdom
This movie was rated PG13 , its about 114 minutes not counting the next attractions which normally about 6 movies. At long last, Hong Kong movie legends Jackie Chan and Jet Li share the screen. Jackie Chan aha aha he is amazing and charming. It’s not worth the wait.
Michael …
Across The Universe
Overview - After watching Across The Universe two days in a row, I can say that it’s probably my favorite movie of all time. Across The Universe is a movie that basically connects the lives of different people into one story and it tells the story through the use …
The Holiday movie
I am reviewing the movie, The Holiday, starring Kate Winslet, Joe Black, Cameron Diez, and Jude Law. Kate Winslet’s character is a fool for love, but the problem is, the guy she love doesn’t love her back. She’s involved in a game of cat and mouse as he …
“Salt” 2010 action film by Phillip Noyce
Who is Salt? Apparently the female answer to James Bond, fortunately with a twist.
The film, titled simply with its protagonist’s surname, was directed by Phillip Noyce and has recently hit the cinemas. I decided to watch it looking for some simple, mindless entertainment: and while the film had a …

Pirates of the Caribbean 2 - Dead Mans Chest
This had to be one of my favorite movies of all summer. I would have to say it was even better than the first one! Not only was this movie full of suspense and action, but it had a bunch of laughs, whether it be Jack Sparrow running in …
Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy (2011 Movie)
Gary Oldman steals the show in this slow-moving but brilliant take on the spy movie genre. Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy is an intellectual film that will keep you guessing until the end.
I was wary of seeing this movie based on some of its reviews on RottenTomatoes, but after watching …
Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer
With hollywood turning every comic book into a movie that they can find, quality has some how taken a back seat. I’m not sure why these hollywood mega moguls would sacrifice putting out a good movie. It’s not like they need the money afterall. But nonetheless, quality is put …
Firefox movie
The young Angelina Jolie is simply delicious as the young rebel in this movie. This is a must for all Angelina Fans!
In Firefox, Jolie plays a teenage rebel and incites a group of young women to stand up for themselves when a teacher is taking advantage of the …

David Copperfield, 1999
This 1999 BBC movie is an excellent adaptation of “David Copperfield,” a novel that Charles Dickens referred to as his “favorite child” amongst his other works.
Packed with unforgettable Dickensian characters, this film tells the story of David, a boy born shortly after his father’s death. His mother Clara (Emilia …
Erin Brockovich movie
The movie Erin Brockovich is a very inspiring movie. She was a single mom of three that proved that she could make it. I was really impressed how she fought for the people in the town against a big company.
Even though the film is loosely based on a true …
I am legend
I think “I am legend” is one of the quiet movies, because along the first hour, i just saw a will smith as the center of this movie. It seems that he is the only actor in this movie. In the scene, he shows his self centered. The script …
Three and Out
I had never heard of this British film before, but it stars the new Bond girl, Gemma Arterton, and MacKenzie Crook from The Office fame, so I gave it a go. It’s a new film (2008) but, as with many British films, I haven’t seen it advertised anywhere so …
GI Joe: The Rise of Cobra
I don’t know why the critics are always so picky about summer blockbusters like GI Joe: The Rise of Cobra. They love to criticize these movies to death, and they don’t even realize that these movies are based on Hasbro toys! Wake up, critics, we don’t watch these kinds …
White Christmas DVD
“I’m dreaming of a white Christmas!”
Words we’ve all no doubt sung many times. This Bing Crosby-Danny Kaye-Rosemary Clooney holiday classic is one I’ve watched more times than I can count. It definitely doesn’t need to be December for me to watch it.
I’ve owned the VHS for years, …
The Princess Diaries movie
I saw The Princess Diaries in the theater when it came out in 2001, and I have seen it a couple times since then. Anne Hathaway (the main character) is one of my favorite actresses (due, in part, to this movie). It is about a girl who …
District 9 (2009), Neill Blomkamp
I caught a few trailers for this, but otherwise managed to miss the hype - and so was not entirely sure what to expect.
I was very pleasantly surprised, because it was so utterly unexpected.
The first few minutes were quite surreal. In a documentary style, we are told that the …
NeverWhere Movie

Then he goes down to the underworld of London to seek answers.
A very stupid and pointless …
The Odd Couple II
Sequels are often just the worst things under the sun, often taking the original characters to ruin. There are few that really are true to the story, that follow it through and make it all believable. Sometimes you still enjoy the original better, but even so, you …
The Sixth Sense movie
I thought that The Sixth Sense is one of the best scary and strange movies made in the last 10 years. This movie really messed with my head and scared me the first time I saw it. I was not expecting the movie to be that scary, but it was …
The Day After Tomorrow (2004)
Director: Roland Emmerich. Featuring Dennis Quaid, Jake Gyllenhaal and Emmy Rossum.
Since the first time I have seen it, it has been one of my top favourite movies. I am re-watching it a few times a year. It is full of action, drama and even a bit of comedy. It is …
Drive Me Crazy
I see a lot of similarity between the actresses, Melissa Joan Hart and Alicia Silverstone. They both got famous due to teen related material and they cannot seem to go beyond that. Alicia Silverstone stuck in the “Clueless” and “Excess Baggage” phase, while Melissa Joan Hart got stuck in …
National Treasure 2
The movie “National Treasure: Book of Secrets” is a sequel to the previous movie starring actor Nicholas Cage “National Treasure”. Like the first one, it was also released by Walt Disney Pictures, and what impressed me the most about it was that I thought that it was just as …

All about Steve Movie (2009)
I must have watched this movie 10 times already. It is really special. It is a funny, light, love comedy. At the same time, it does not strictly follow the typical structure of a romantic comedy. All About Steve is just a little bit to weird to fit the …
Zu: Warriors of the Magic Mountain Movie
En epic Hong Kong action movie about an ordinary man who gets involved in battles between good and evil on the old mysterious mountain of Zu.
This is one of the strangest films I’ve ever experiences. I suppose the filmmakers were trying to create some kind of experimental and innovative …
Serendipity
I think that the best way to describe the movie “Serendipity” is John Cusack’s success movie as an attempt to return to his origins. We can remember that in the being of his career Cusack was involved in the successful movie project “The Sure Thing”. “Serendipity” is Cusack’s version …
Harry Potter and The Globlet of Fire
Goblet of Fire is one of the Harry Potter sequel that came up after the Prisoner of Azkaban. It is one of the most exciting of the recent Harry Potter movies. Also in the movie the stars of Harry Potter have gone even more mature.

The Lost (NR, 2005) movie
I thought this movie was supposed to be good. I rented it on Netflix, looking at the four stars and really assumed that there would be some significant twists. But this film was completely lost on me. For one, Ray Pye’s character was not …
