We went to see the new James Bond movie this weekend, “Casino Royale”. We were a party of two adults and found the movie to be good entertainment. Daniel Craig was a great new James Bond and both my husband and I felt he did a great job. He …

Up to 1995 we were so used of associating the actress Sandra Bullock to romantic movies. During this year, Bullock decided to show her talents in a different movie that included drama, patios and action. This is what “The Net” is all about.
The story of this movie is about …

Stanley Kubrick is one exception of a filmmaker who actually was just as popular with the audience and critics with almost all of his films. Despite that fact he was never a commercial director and always but the artistic vision before the entertainment. Barry Lyndon is slow, poetic retelling …

Like its predecessor from the year before, the Columbo Mystery Movie Collection 1990 DVD set has a DVD layout that I really despise because of the inconvenience involved in selecting a DVD to watch and also the potential for harm to come to the DVDs.
What Universal has done with …

I’m not exactly a big cinematic buff, and tend to prefer reading to watching films. However, Nora Ephron’s much hailed Julie and Julia tempted me with excellent cast, and when a couple of my friends recommended the film to me, I was really hoping to catch it in the …

From 1938, Letter of Introduction turned out to be better than I thought it was going to be. The center of the motion picture was the character of Kay Martin, as played by Andrea Leeds. When we first see her, she’s returning to the boarding house she …

I first saw the trailer for the animated movie Zootopia when I went to the movies to watch something else. At the time I got the impression that it wasn’t really going to be anything more than a very funny children’s movie perhaps with one or two parts that adults …

Jerry Blake (Terry O’Quinn), a real estate agent, has chosen a rather unusual path in life, to put it mildly: he moves in with single mothers with children, plays a good husband/stepfather for a while, and then murders the family and takes off. He takes precautions like changing his …

I thought I would like this movie more than I did. The filming is extremely grainy. And while that might have added to the authentic feel, I found it intrusive. Additionally, Frances is quite a boring lady, even after she decides to leave her …

I loved the first movie of Shrek, and my family and I watched over and over again. Too funny! WE also saw Shrek 2 and I thought that the movie was good, which is pretty crazy for a second. Usually second movies are not worth the money that you …

This takes us on a journey of self discovery, where war is a thing of the past (for a year) and peace is being challenged by a new breed of dictators. The Gundams have served their purpose are were decommissioned…and were to be destroyed. After the uprising, the Gundams …

Bus 174 is a movie that I really enjoyed watching with my sister and brother. We love watching hostages movie scenario, but felt that to happen in real life would be devastating. But I love watching how the characters blend and try to escape, something like that. …

I saw ‘Watchmen’ at a local IMAX theatre and the film really scores a 100% rating for presentation. It’s slick, glossy and packed with imaginative set pieces and special effects. The story on the other hand leaves a lot to be desired. I never read the graphic novel by …

What strikes me as the main appeal of a Christmas story isn’t that it is a Christmas movie. It’s a story of youth, family and friends, with extra helpings of nostalgia (try eating that, Randy!).
The 40’s is captured brilliantly-the products surround the parkers, Higbee’s department store, the time of …

This DVD has quite an assortment of Spongebob episodes to choose from. Including classic episodes like the Bubble Stand and Squid’s Day off. It’s a good way to unwind after a long day at work.
My favorite episode on this DVD is “Spongebob Meets the Strangler, where Spongebob turns in …

Ella Enchanted is a fun movie that is good for all ages. It is a fantasy, taking place in an imaginary world where magic is real. When baby Ella is born, a fairy grants her the “gift” of obedience. This means that every time someone gives …

If there is any war movie I love watching over and over again, it is the 300 staring Gerard Butler as King Leonidas. The 300 is the story of the Spartans battling the Persian army led by the God-King Xerxes.
They waged their battle in the infamous Hot Gates paving …

Picnic At Hanging Rock came to me in an unexpected way. I saw it on the Independent Film Channel and while it was a little weird, I knew I had to see Picnic At Hanging Rock again. The film is made in Australia, and I have not seen many …

The old saying, “They don’t make them like they used to” was just proven false. I just saw La La Land and it upholds the quality of the golden age of movies. Movies when they were art. Movies when they took effort and talent and time. Not the modern mindless …

When I first loaded the movie Bachelor Party Vegas on our netflix player, I wasn’t sure what to expect. i figured it was either a comedy or a soft core porn film. So, I waited until the kids were spending the night at their grandparents’ before my wife and …

Like any discerning cinema fan, I’ve always been slightly suspicious of Drew Barrymore. Can she act? It seems for every decent performance she delivers, she chooses some unbelievably soulless project that would make even the finest acting look like a middle-school play. And way too often it seems like …

I have always thought Julia Roberts acting to be very influential and contagious, in a positive way. And in Mona Lisa Smile, she suits the role that she played as a teacher in a college and the time era was during the early 1900s. My 2 favorite actresses; …

Just before the film ended when Lee Chandler (Casey Affleck) finally acknowledged the guilt that manifested inside him I hit the pause button. I went to the bathroom and let the faucet running - it was the first time I had an emotional breakdown while watching a film. I just …

The movie is set six years after the X-Files are closed. Dana Scully is now a doctor at a Catholic hospital, Our Lady of Sorrows while Fox Mulder is some sort of bum after being hunted down by the FBI. They both do not want anything to do with …

After his belated return to his roots with Land of the Dead a few years prior, Romero turns prolific once more with Diary of the Dead; an interesting take on the genre with a hand held, documentary tactic employed perhaps most famously with Cloverfield.
It’s an interesting idea, and …

I went and seen the Hangover movie today, with a bunch of friends it suppose to be hilarious. I went with an open mind although it is suppose to be a guy’s type of movie, a guy’s worst case scenario in my opinion, but my friends were really interested …

Somewhere down the line, Hollywood thought Nick Cage would make a good action star. I’m sorry, but that logic is flawed and the movie Ghost Rider proves it.
Overall, Ghost Rider is a good film; or, at very least, a unique one. Cage plays a stuntman who makes a deal …

The original Creepshow movie by Stephen King is probably one of my favorite horror movies ever. I really liked this serious of mini movies. I really like the intro about the kid who get revenge on his enemies with a voodoo doll. I thought that intro clip was just …

The movie Rocket Science is stars Reece Thompson as a 15 year old boy with a bad stuttering problem who joins the debate team because a girl, played by Anna Kendrick asks him too.
On its surface this appears to be a typical story of a boy overcoming the odds. …

The best way to describe “Virgin Territory” is a sort of young and funny version of “First Knight”. What is interesting in this movie is that the lead actors, Hayden Christensen and Misha Barton used this movie as a way to open their path for a Hollywood career.
At the …

One of my friends had been nagging me to watch the movie “Shortbus” for several weeks, but I kept putting it off mostly because I did not have the time to actually sit and watch a movie. However, some time ago, we had both managed to watch the movie …

I saw this movie as a kid and since then have seen it many times with equal interest every time. It is one of the most brilliantly animated movies I have ever seen. The 3D graphics make each and every Dinosaur spring to life on the screen, and …

Dennis the Menace, a remake of a 1959 movie and a remake of a TV and comic strip series. This is what I am talking about, this kid gets himself into realistic trouble and he uses his smarts to work his way from his captor and deals a dose …

I was expecting Josh Hartnett to shine in the DVD movie, 40 Days and 40 Nights. Don’t get me wrong; Josh is a darling and he acted really well but the storyline is a real bummer for me.
It starts off with Josh character, Matt being dumped by his super …

A truly modern day scary movie!! Based on the true story of a housewife that is an absolute lunatic!! The story takes place in the 60’s and a single mother of six , who lives a precarious lifestyle, and decides to earn some income by allowing 2 other children …

Quick word of advice… If you’re one of those people that have decided to dismiss Nicholas Cage and any films that he may star in I suggest moving on to different review as I really liked this movie and am a big supporter of Nicholas Cage in general.
Apparently …

The last time I saw the 1978 version of Halloween, I was a pre-teen and, to be perfectly honest, couldn’t remember much about the movie.
It was on one of our movie channels last night so I decided to watch it with my wife while we were waiting for Project …

My sister loves to watch this movie. She watches it a lot, almost every day. I kind of get sick of watching it to tell you the truth. I think it is more of a kid’s movie than for anyone. I think that it is kind of childish.
It’s …

Filmed in 1973, the movie makes a decent attempt of portraying the future where very realistic, human-like androids serve for entertainment purposes. Delos, hailed as “vacation of the future,” is an amusement park divided into three major areas: West World, Medieval World, and Roman World; each one is populated …

Before you guys go into thinking that Stomp the Yard is not worth it, think again. Sure, this movie does has its bad moments, but one word or term that I’ve come to learn would be “stepping”. This is like a lingo known as dancing or step up …

Sudden Impact with Clint Eastwood and Sondra Locke.
Vigilante justice is a great movie theme. Mix this concept with the Dirty Harry Callahan persona and you have a real winner. Locke is avenging her and her sister’s rape ten years prior by shooting …

As soon as I watched the trailer for the movie Project Almanac it was easy for me to determine that it wasn’t going to be very good. However since I’m generally unable to resist movies about time travel I decided to watch it. While it did live up to my …

Yesterday, my boyfriend brought along this DVD title, The Pool which he got stashed at his home and my siblings were getting a freak movie treat yesterday. This is actually something like a teen flick, but then again, I would still label it as a ‘Psycho’ movie. To …
