101 Dalmatians 2 Patch’s London Adventure Movie
101 Dalmatians. Whenever I heard that name, I would always think of the tiny little puppies that I used to cheer for when I was a child. I would yell at the screen to make sure that they got away from the evil Cruella De Vil. I used to …
The Matrix
Watching The Matrix movie is really exiting and absorbing the attention adventure. Based on a original idea, it shows us one fantastic reality, in which the the ordinary people became extraordinary under the pressure of the circumstances. The main meaning is that the most important thing in our …
Movie 1408
I really enjoyed watching this movie. I wouldn’t really say it was scary, I would say it was more freaky. I really liked it though. It kept me interested and entertained the whole movie. I wasn’t bored at any part. The actors did a good job and it was …
Born Free
When I was little I used to hear my mother talk about a film she used to watch when she was little named Born Free. She made it sound so interesting I couldn’t help but be eager to see it, and some time after coincidentally I was able to …
Blue Collar Comedy Tour
I am reviewing the video, Blue Collar Comedy Tour. This video captures the on stage/off stage moments of comedians Jeff Foxworthy, Bill Engvall, Ron White, and Larry the Cable Guy. Throughout this tour, you’ll hear several of Foxworthy’s “You might be a redneck…”, and Engvall’s “Here’s your sign.” …
Parent Trap: Hawaiian Honeymoon movie
With the Parent Trap III movie bringing in good ratings for the Walt Disney company, another movie was done the same year called Parent Trap: Hawaiian Honeymoon. With Susan now married to Jeffrey Wyatt, the family travels together to Hawaii for the honeymoon. Strange, odd even, but …
Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince
The film was absolutely fabulous. I was worried, I won’t lie, that Tom Felton (Draco Malfoy) would not have the acting chops to do this movie given that he’s had so little screen time in the past. I was worried that the “please” on top of the …
Death Note anime
I am not a big fan of anime and Death Note was one of the first that I have watched. Though I have heard some of my die-hard anime fanatic friends going gaga over this, I still am not that keen on watching it. But I was glad I …
League of Extraordinary Gentlemen
OK, maybe it’s because I’ve never read the comic book but this is probably the tenth time I’ve tried to watch the movie League of Extraordinary Gentlemen and, try as I might, I just can’t seem to get through the entire movie.
I’m sure the concept of a crime fighting …
Cars movie
I finally got around to watching Cars on DVD this past weekend and I’m glad to say, I didn’t waste my money seeing it at the theater.
Cars is a good movie and one that the entire family could enjoy, especially if you’re a bunch of race fanatics. How ever, …
A Knight’s Tale (2001)
I have always enjoyed great fantasy movies, and one of my favorites is “A Knight’s Tale,” which stars the late, great Heath Ledger as Sir William Thatcher, better known as Sir Ulrich von Lichtenstein of Gelderland. Ledger, who was an incredibly talented actor, was absolutely amazing in this movie. …
Alexander film
I love films based on historical figures. However, after finally watching the movie Alexander, I have to say I was a bit disappointed.
Based on the life of Alexander the Great, the movie focuses a bit too much on the guy who conquered the known world and not enough on …
Happy Feet movie
The animated feature film Happy Feet features an all-star cast of voice talent. Unfortunately this talent is wasted plot that meanders through a worthwhile environmental message but never really comes together. It really seems as if the studio decided that environmentalism was the current hot issue, pardon the pun, …

The Patriot (2000 movie)
There is no way, no way on the green earth that you cannot love this movie. It has all the makings of true blockbuster and collected item movie. It has action, boy does it have action. It has drama that will bring tears to your eyes (bawling even). It’s …
Alaipayuthae
Alaipayuthae was a fantastic romantic film by Maniratnam. He directed the movie for his own production house ‘Madras Talkies’. The movie was released on April 14, 2000. That was on Tamil New Year. I watched the movie on ‘First Day First Show’ with my friends. …
Raising Waylon movie
I saw Raising Waylon for the first time recently and was surprised that I enjoyed it as much as I did. I say that because I’m not really a fan of the movie’s stars, Tom Gibson and Poppy Montgomery, and because it’s pretty predictable from start to finish. …
The 40-Year Old Virgin (UR, 2005) movie
I underrated the quality of this film. As usual, I passed this over in movie theatres because I felt that perhaps it would be just too silly. And this time I was right—but it was silly in a fabulous way. I love how the humor is …
The Mist movie
I can quite honestly say that “The Mist” was the best horror film I have seen all year.
The acting was spectacular, the casting was great and the script was magical. I was actually quite surprised because in my opinion the horror industry has been lacking in the last …
RomeoXJuliet Episode 21
RomeoXJuliet Episode 21 begins with Juliet arriving to the site of Neo Verona experiencing an earthquake due to the Escalus tree dying. She tries to help the people while Mercutio begins to burn the city to the ground on orders of Lord Montague.

Grandma’s Boy Movie
I was at a friend’s house when I first heard about this movie. He said to me “It’s called Grandma’s Boy”. I laughed, thinking it was about a little boy who was spoiled by his grandma and wanted to stay at her house all the time. This was not …
Movie: The Help (2011)

Let us talk about a movie that falls under the category of a complete ‘miss’. This movie stars some of the best actors in Hollywood like Alec Baldwin, Matthew Broderick, Tony Shaloub, Ray Liotta, Toni Collette and even Eric Roberts, but even though it had these people in the …
I think I love my wife
“I think I love my wife” starring Chris Rock is raunchy, dirty, disturbing at times and wildy funny.
Basis of the movie is that Chris Rock plays a married man who is “****ing bored” with his life and a beautiful former friends enters the picture causing drama in …
I Am Love: A film by Luca Guadagdino (2009)
I watched this film upon the recommendation of one of nytimes film critics. I rely heavily on movie reviews, as I prefer to see titles released under the radar. It was a long wait for this film to be released in DVD version, and I had …

Ice Age
Pixar has set a whole new standard in animated films. Ice Age is not a Pixar movie. However, I stilled enjoyed it greatly despite not having the Pixar tag on it. Ice Age is great animated movie in my opinion. It is very funny throughout the …

Sin City Spoke To My Soul
It’s rare that I watch a movie and actually develop an opinion about it or respond emotionally to it. Well, I saw Sin City a few days ago and I am totally ambivalent towards it. I’ll say right now that it gets a 5, and here’s why: …
Blades of Glory
I watched Blades of Glory the other night, and I am a little on the edge about what to think about it. This movie is about two proffessional ice skaters who cannot get along, because of the level of competition. When that competition gets in the way …
Movie: Elf
The family is in bed early tonight. And, since I don’t have much else to do, I’m sitting on the couch watching the movie Elf.

Come to the Stable movie
What a wonderful, inspiring movie Come to the Stable is. I thought I’d already reviewed it, but a check shows I haven’t. Shame on me because this is one of my favorite holiday stories. It makes me feel good inside, and the story contains the Christmas …
The Debt, movie (2011)
Ever since her turn as the title role in 2006’s The Queen, she has allowed herself to take roles that women younger than her would kill for. Many times you hear actresses complain that they don’t get the roles they used to because of their age. If …
Katha (Hindi Movie)
This is one of the better entertainers I have seen in Indian cinema. Katha, meaning ’story’, is directed by Sai Paranjpe, and she has done a fantastic job to narrate ‘Chawl’ (a big house where different people live together, and are allotted one room each - they have a …
The Dark Knight Rises
Read on at the risk of spoilers.
For those of you who believed that ‘The Avengers’ and ‘The Amazing Spiderman’ would be strong competition for ‘The Dark Knight Rises’ I’m sorry, but you could not be more wrong. The other two films were good, but this was on a whole …

Another cherished Disney memory from the 70s, I was thrilled when it became available on DVD. Escape to Witch Mountain is the tale of aliens who crashland on Earth. Survivors of the tragedy found refuge on what the surrounding community called Witch Mountain, because of the strange goings-on there.
Tia …
S1m0ne
“S1m0ne” represent a different type of movie for Al Pacino. I believe that Al chose to make this science fiction movie in order not to be linked always to the usual type of characters. This movie could be best described as one of the big failures for Al Pacino …

Movie The good girl

In this film, Aniston interprets the character of …

Star Power : None of great note.

Igor (movie)
One of the animated movies that I was fortunate to watch earlier on this year was the movie “Igor”. To tell you the truth, I didn’t pay a lot of attention to it whenever it was first released not only because the trailer just didn’t interest me, but because …

Black Butler: Season One, Anime

I absolutely love this series …
Bebe’s Kids
I was looking through one of the thrift stores in my local area and found one of the movies that I will always remember from my childhood and teenage years because of how different it was and a movie that normally, I would not have really watched. Bebe’s Kids. …
Charlie and the Chocolate Factory
