One of my favorite Hitchcock films from his time in England. An old lady disappears while travelling in Switzerland, and when this is noticed by two of the passengers a most hideous plot is revealed little by little to a most unexpected end.
One of the first brilliant examples of …

Peeping Tom is perhaps one of most influential films ever, but once you know the story behind the film it gets even more powerful. The director Michael Powell had charmed the world of cinema for decades with his visually groundbreaking epic films like A matter of life and death, …

Here in Bellingham we are fortunate to have the best video store ever. Film is Truth located on Holly Street is absolutely the best adult video store ever. By adult I don’t mean that they rent dirty movies, but rather that they rent movies that will interest adults.
The store …

I’m still looking for new Christmas movies to watch this year; mostly because I’m getting tired of the same stories every year. This is why I ended up loading the movie Elf Bowling on our Netflix player yesterday.
I didn’t know what to expect from a movie based on a …

You, John Jones! is a great little film short with a stellar cast. James Cagney appears as John Jones with Ann Sothern as his wife and Margaret O’Brien as his daughter. O’Brien is just adorable and so passionate and intense as she recites a patriotic piece.
This film …

I did not expect a sequel to this movie would come out. But when it did, I had to watch it as soon as possible. The experience was amazing.
The movie kicks off from where the fact that Kumar(Kal Penn) and Harold(John Cho) ate those 30 burgers. And now they …

In all honesty I don’t know why Susan Sarandon decided to participate in an average movie such as “The Banger Sisters”. The only reason that comes to my mind is that, after 11 years, from her successful movie “Thelma & Louise”, she thought this movie will have the same …

This cult-rated romantic comedy was the very first of a long series of similar films, all starring Meg Ryan as practically the same character. When Harry met Sally was directed by the talented Rob Reiner (even though he wasted his talent at several occasions in my opinion), and also …

I wasn’t sure if I would like Silent Hill after learning it was based on a video game, but, after watching it, I have to admit it was one of the scarier movies to come out in a while.
Radha Mitchell plays Rose, a mother who loses her daughter while …

I’m glad I saw the newer Punisher, with John Travolta as the villain, before I saw the original Punisher, starring Dolph Lundgren as Frank Castle. It started out with promise, with Castle already presumed dead, and Punisher on his vigilante jaunt for five years now. Then it quickly …

I had watched this last night on HBO and I was really surprised there was such a movie as this one, I haven’t really seen this movie when it was being shown in the theatres and I’m glad I had seen it last night. The show features a …

I loved this film, it’s one of my all time favourites.
I’m a big fan of Anne Rice and it’s so rare to like the movie version of a book but this film could not be any more perfect.
I thought they captured the darkness of her books wonderfully. They managed …

Seed of Chucky was a very funny and somewhat cheesy movie. It seems that ever new Child’s Play movie it got funnier and cheesier as it went along. But after a while, things started to change. The movie did have a few scares here and there but nothing compared to …

I am also a twilight fan and came to love the book, the characters and the movie itself. I never miss to watch each of its episodes when it came out. The best Twilight Series that I’m so into is the Eclipse.
I think among the three episodes the last …

A Cinderella Story is a really interesting take on the fairy tale of Cinderella.
This movie stars Hilary Duff as the to-be “Cinderella” and Chad Michel Murray as her “prince.” Hilary narrates some of the movie like she is a telling story, which I found to be nice.
The movie …

Stephen King movies are usually hit or miss. Some are great, others are kind of dumb.
The Mist falls into the former more than the latter. But, it still is flawed.
The great thing about The Mist is the fact you really never know what is going on until the very …

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 …

Based on the comics with the same name, Iron Man is one of last summer’s blockbuster movies, starring Robert Downey Jr. in the lead role. This film combines several genres, from action to romance and comedy, in a well-built plot. Technology nowadays has allowed this comic book to be …

Disney is the bible to family movies, and I love just about all of them. One of my favorite live-action Disney films is “Blackbeard’s Ghost” starring Peter Ustinov, Dean Jones, and Suzanne Pleshette.
I actually remember seeing this movie at the drive-in with my parents when I was a …

I’m a big fan of jazz, baseball, and history so when I heard about the 2007 movie “American Pastime” that is based on a real story, deals with the internment of the West Coast Japanese during World War II, and deals with baseball and jazz, I was hooked. What …

If you’re in the mood for some mindless scares, the recently released “Dead Silence” might be a good choice for you. I, however, find it too gory and frightening, and having no deeper message than “Boo!!” is, for me, a big turn-off.
The story is about a dead ventriloquist (performer …

Road Show was a 1941 movie musical that starred Adolphe Menjou, who was one of the mainstays in motion pictures in this era. He was just everywhere. In this picture, he portrays Colonel Carleton Carroway.
The movie also starred Carole Landis as, get this, Penguin Moore. She …

“Powder” is one of the worth watching movies I ever watched. The story is very emotional and sensational. Direction, Cast and crew and the other supports have done their duty well.
Here I mention the story in brief to give an idea about the film.
A pregnant woman was attacked and …

The movie is starring Kirk and Michael Douglas, as well as Cameron Douglas. This movie was more of a family reunion for the actors themselves, rather than entertainment or movie of great value. Despite all the publicity and the positive exposure, in my experience, it is one hard-to-watch …

I simply enjoyed watching the actress Diane Keaton in her role of clingy and over protective mother with the name of Daphne Wilder in the movie “Because I Said So”. The Razzie Award thought that she over exaggerated, however for me that her interpretation in this movie is simply …

I’ve seen this movie so many times that I can recite some of the dialogues already. The Cutting Edge is actually one of my most favorite romantic movies of all time. I never get tired of watching
