“Project X” is one of the most exciting movies I’ve watched since the beginning of the summer. Funny enough, even though I’ve been more interested in action movies, this is more along the lines of teenage and college humour. In fact, the movie was actually one of those teen …

I am the world’s biggest Harry Potter fan (self-proclaimed). When I’d heard that J.K. Rowling was penning a screenplay for a prequel spin-off movie of the Harry Potter franchise, I was excited but unsure of how a movie without Harry Potter would turn out. However, David Yates, the director of …

The movie Titanic was very popular in those days. Wow this movie is really great and excellent. I don’t think that there will be any one will ever make any other movie like this. All the scenes in this movie were looking so real and the …

An animated film about three brothers who fight against a great bear with an unfortunate outcome. The youngest of these brothers is put into a peculiar situation and needs to find a certain mountain to survive.
Extraordinary animated movie considering the mere visual area, but it really doesn’t have anything …

It starts off really good and funny and then the middle is still funny but not as funny as in the middle. It kept me interested the whole movie. The funny parts in the movie were really hilarious and made me laugh. I even re winded a few parts …

In this movie, you will find parts of Rocky, parts of School of Rock and Tenacious D: The Pick of Destiny, and parts of Napoleon Dynamite. At it’s core, you will find Jack Black playing Nacho, an orphan turned monk, desiring to be a world famous wrestler. That type …

I began looking forward to seeing the next movie in the Captain America franchise shortly after Captain America: The Winter Soldier was released in 2014. After watching the movie Captain America: Civil War in the theatre recently I’m proud to report that I found it very entertaining.

Captain America: Civil …

My sisters bought me some movies for Christmas. One of the movies was Mr. Deeds. I hadn’t seen the whole movie all the way through so I decided to watch it. It was actually better than I thought. For some reason I thought that the movie was stupid but …

Directed by Ben Stiller, Tropic Thunder is one of the smartest movies that I have seen in a long while. It toys with the audience just like any good movie does, and by the time you realize what the movie is all about, the plot shifts gears and becomes …

I have watched the movie The Princess Bride countless times now. And, I have to say, even after seeing it more times than just about any other movie (including Star Wars), this film is still as good as it was the first time I saw it.
The thing I like …

Pierce Brosnan’s third outing as James Bond is one of the weakest in the series, with another ‘out there’ villain, played by Robert Carlisle and a ridiculous plot that makes ‘The World is Not Enough’ simply unbearable to sit through. Let me be clear: I hate this movie. …

I didn’t have very high hopes in this movie so my expectations were very low. I didn’t think it would be possible to be any worse than I had imagined, BUT, I was wrong. First off, the movie is never scary to me. A man in …

There is only one word to describe this movie and that is weird. I have never seen a movie as strange as this one before. I had thought it was supposed to be a comedy but I found nothing funny in it at all. I fail to see the …

A sequel that should not have been made…why does everyone need to do a sequel? Was there something from the original Crow that was felt uncovered that they really needed a second installation, or, did they truly believe that they could make more money off re-doing a movie with …

“Dangerous Liasons” is the name of a 1988 movie starring quite a few A-list celebrities such as Michelle Pfeifer, Uma Thurman, Keanu Reeves and Glen Close. It was the oldest movie I remember seeing the actress Uma Thurman in as previously, the only movies I rememebr seeing her in …

Into the Woods is a musical, fantasy movie by Disney. This movie took the classic fairy tales ‘Jack and the Beanstalk’, ‘Little Red Riding Hood’, ‘Rapunzel’ and ‘Cinderella’ and had them crossover in a way that each story required the other. All these stories unfold throughout the lives of a …

As an avid fan of the books, I was absolutely horrified when I found out The Hunger Games trilogy was going to be made into movies. I never really felt that anyone would be enough to take on the role of Katniss Everdeen, and I just knew they …

When I think back to the movies made in the 1990s, I can think of quite a few good ones. And, then I can think of ones made by Pauley Shore that weren’t so good but still somewhat entertaining.
Shore will never win any awards for his performance in the …

I make it a point to watch as many of the Oscar contenders as possible before the awards are handed out in February, so that my enjoyment of the ceremony itself can be magnified by my rooting for this or that actor, director or writer. This year I wasn’t …

I had a very bad experience with Columbia House’s DVD club. Through this club, you are offred a certain number of DVDs at a discount as long as you buy a set amount of DVDs at regular price within a set amount of time. I signed up through a …

Many movies claim to have you on the edge of your seat, but I have never seen a movie do that literally… until I watched Cloverfield. This monster flick redefines the genre and brings viewers a first person look into what an apocalyptic experience is like. The movie was …

Rarely am I interested in movies, so it always comes as a surprise for me if I’m interested in watching a movie for a second or even third time. Despicable Me was such a great movie that I now have it on a regular weekend rotation. This movie, starring …

Knocked Up is a movie about a girl and a guy who get together in a chance encounter and the girl ends up pregnant. The girl, Alison, and the guy, Ben, who have only known each other for a one night stand, decide that they should at least make …

Another good good good!
Another topnotch of Ghibli stuff. This is is one of the romance movie I have seen without cliche and it tackles so much about life in a very simple way. Though its an old movie it definitely deserves a second look.
Hayao Miyazaki is one of …

F/X, 1986, starring, Bryan Brown, Brian Dennehy. Very suspensful movie here. From way back in 1986, this thriller is still great to watch. Special effects master, played by Bryan Brown (also starred in cocktail), is hired by the feds to help fake the assassination of a mob godfather. …

One of the movies that I watched very recently was a comedy named “The Internship” starring the popular comedy actors Vince Vaughn and Owen Wilson. While I didn’t think that it was the funniest movie that I had seen recently, I still thought that it was interesting and light-hearted …

Plain Truth is a phenomenal movie based on the novel written by Jodi Picoult. It was aired on Lifetime TV. It grabs your attention within the first 5 minutes, and holds your attention throughout.
The basis of the movie is an Amish girl that has a baby that is …

The thing about slasher movies is they normally are good if you’re looking for a good laugh or just like watching a lot of blood and gore. But, as far as being scary, most fall well short of expectations.
I had never heard of the movie The Butcher before so …

Se7en, directed by David Fincher is rated R by the Motion Picture Association of America for grisly afterviews of horrific and bizarre killings, and for strong language.

If for no other reason, you need to watch this movie on the basis that it gives or shines hope on things that one would soon lose interest in. This movie is about a family that lost a very dear family member and how they are coping with both …

From 1961, The Guns of Navarone is one of the most famous wartime films, and it has quite the cast to help make it that way. Gregory Peck has the starring role as Capt. Keith Mallory. Also present are Richard Harris, Anthony Quayle, David Niven, Anthony Quinn, …

I cannot say that I have always been a huge Billy Bob Thorton or Seann William Scott fan, but I did like Bad Santa and my husband enjoyed American Pie so we decided that we would rent this particular movie to watch one night after the kids went to …

The movie die hard has been out for a very long time. I myself have seen it many times, and each time I watch it I can always find something new and great about the movie. Not only is this Bruce Willis’s biggest role but it’s one of the …

A Mighty heart is a boring movie which I have seen a few days back on a cable channel, by mistake. The movie starring Angelina Jolie, Dan Futterman, Will Patton and Irrfan Khan. The movie was shot mostly in India, though they haven’t shown very much of any place …

A Bridge Too Far featured an all-star cast and told the story of an attempt to end World War II by capturing a series of bridges. Known as Operation Market-Garden, it had a lot of hopes but was doomed to fail almost from the beginning.
The problem with A …

It took me quite some time before I was actually able to watch the movie “Cinderella Man” being that it was not the type of movie which I usually liked watching at the time, and I thought that it would probably be another boring sports drama film which I …

The trailer for November Man didn’t make it come off as something that I would want to see in the theatres. For some reason, it just felt as if the movie wouldn’t be very good. However, when I watched it, even though I didn’t think it was great, it was …

I saw Spiderman 3 at a matinee the weekend after it opened. There had already been a ton of reviews stating just how horrible it was and that Sam Raimi is just a huge dissapointment with this one.
NEVER listen to critics. Always make your own decision when …

Cinderella is easily one of my favorite Disney movies of all time and I’ve probably seen it 50 times over the years. I used to baby sit a little girl who absolutely had to watch the movie every night before she went to bed and even then I never …

‘Cranford’ by Elizabeth Gaskell has been made into a five part series, now available to buy on dvd.
It has been adapted by the BBC who seem to be masters of making period dramas for television. The story is set in a Cranford; a market town in the north west …

It has been five years since the attacks on the World Trade Center in New York. For most, the wounds are still raw. I wasn’t sure if people would really be interested or prepared for a film about any of the events that took place that day. I know …

A demon tells the story of how it was almost killed by a self-righteous police detective played by Denzel Washington. This demon travels through people by touch and becomes more powerful if his host dies, then he can take over basically any host. The demon Azazel claims to have …

While The Boy in Striped Pajamas is obviously a well-intentioned film, it is considerably unrealistic with a strange and awkward ending. The story is about an eight-year-old child named Bruno (Asa Butterfield) who is the son of a Nazi soldier (David Thewlis) and his unsuspecting wife (Vera Farmiga). …

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 …

Where the Wild Things Are was a truly disappointing movie. It was rambling and didn’t seem to have any direction.
I think the problem is that it’s an adaptation of a picture book. It would have worked better as possibly a thirty minute animated film. …
