No matter what the actress Reese Whiterspoon does with her career, she will be associated with the “Legally Blond” movies for which (for the first movie) she won an Emmy Award. Whiterspoon is simply fantastic in the role of cute Elle Woods whose life is all pink! Whenever Whiterspoon wears …

I love watching Sex and the City, the series before on TV, and now that there’s a movie rendition, I sure wouldn’t want to miss it at all. As usual, it stars the lovely and gorgeous Sarah Jessica Parker and the other lovely ladies as well such as …

It’s been a long time since I’ve seen the “Scream” movies. I know that there are a lot of people who hate the franchise, but I never found myself in that camp. By that same token, I never bought it as a revolutionary leap forward in the …

Today I went to see Iron Man. What an excellent film.
This is the first of all the Marvel films that I feel like really had it all. A good plot, story line, special effects, cast of characters and really solid acting.
It’s rare to find this combination in a film …

I was expecting The Invention of Lying to be a romantic comedy, and only a decent one, because while I love Ricky Gervais, I do not enjoy the movies which Jennifer Garner does. I figured Gervais’ wonderful, sarcastic, dry, British humour would carry this movie. While Gervais was great, …

It is very difficult for a sequel to make the audience feel the same excitement as the first movie, and this sequel didn’t quite live up to that… However, it didn’t fail either. The second Transformers movie did a bad job, and a good job of giving us …

I have to say I was not looking forward to seeing this movie. In fact I made my daughter get The Simpson’s Movie because this movie had gotten really bad reviews. I really do not know what movie they watched. This movie was wonderful. It was like Willy …

Woman’s World is an oldie but goodie. The movie was made in 1954 and some might call it dated, but I watched this movie a lot growing up and really like it. I wish I could find it on DVD or that cable would air it.
The vehicle …

I’ve been waiting my entire life for this movie to be released! Tinkerbell has always been my absolute favorite.
We had a girl’s only movie night the other day when this movie was finally released. My toddler watched the entire movie with a look of rapture on her …

This website is highly useful for film buffs, but it is so detailed and so user-friendly that it is not niche at all and is useful for anyone who likes movies. I find that to be pretty much everyone. I love this website because it is always …

Batman Begins is the second best comic book movie ever made; surpassed only by its sequel, The Dark Knight. This is a bold statement to make considering how many comic movies that have been made including all the Spider-Mans, Fantastic Four, and the older Batman movies. I …

‘This is England’ is a marvellous movie about growing up, friendship, love, pain and hatred. The story is set in Britain in 1983, just in the middle of Iron Lady’s reign and the Falklands War. A very young boy, Shaun, is going through a very difficult time. His dad …

The second part of Deadly Matrimony focuses on how Brian Dennehy’s detective sergeant character of John Reed sets out to find out who killed Dianne Masters, and once he knows, to take care of cleaning up the corrupted Chicago police department.

I am a confessed Harry Potter addict. I even make it a point to get the first editions of the books on the day they come out, and I willingly line up just to be the first one to watch a Harry Potter movie. I submitted a review of …

As many others, my first experience with Cloverfield was during the opening set of previews for last year’s summer blockbuster Transformers. The movie was drenched in the bloody veins of terror, depicting some… thing laying waste to New York like with all its ability. Shrieks of people pierced the …

School of Rock is one the funniest if not the funniest movie I’ve ever watched. Directed by Richard Linklater, it’s the story of Dewey Finn (Jack Black), a down on his luck rock star who gets kicked out of his own band and about to get kicked out of …

Ever wondered if there are actually people living under the sea, breathing water as if it was air. A family of mer-people, unknown to the world above, they live in secret from the humans…as they deem humans to be very hostile creatures.
Disney takes you underwater for an epic animated …

Ok my good people, I guess we asked for it and it was given to us as promised, this is where Hollywood meets police meets Hollywood get it? Me neither, but in essence, this movie is about two police detectives who are not getting enough payment from their regular …

This movie has the feel of a low-budget thriller. And at first I was reluctant to sit through an entire viewing. But since someone actually referred the movie to me, I gave it a chance. I am glad that I did. While I found …

Sean Connery’s James Bond takes a vacation from his usual European hot stops and turns native in this movie set in Japan. It doesn’t have the elements that made movies like “Goldfinger” and “Thunderball” great, but it isn’t a bad entry into the film series.
I’m a fan of James …

I just recently had the chance to watch this movie on dvd. My friends were telling me about it and how different it is from all the other super hero staff around. It is indeed with a special kind of humour, not as dark as the hero comix we …

Vampire Knight: Guilty is the second season of the anime based on the manga, Vampire Knight, by Matsuri Hino which is my favorite vampire anime, mainly because it is a shoujo, but still serious at the same time. The image on this DVD cover is of Ichiru and …

Over the past few years, I have been getting more and more into the horror movie genre. When I was younger, I stayed away from it. I didn’t like to get scared. As I’ve gotten older, however, I have realized that horror movies, when they are well done, can …

Anyone who’s seen Ted (2012), knows how hilarious a vulgar, talking teddy bear can be. Ted 2 delivers on the expectations set by Ted, but with less of a story and more focus on humour.
Ted 2 continues the story of a talking teddy bear, Ted and his best friend, John …

I really admired the movie Gandhi (1982) directed by Richard Attenborough. From the boring history books that I read from high school and from classroom discussions that did not give me as much information as I need, the personality that I had been curious about finally came to …

“Rendition” is a great movie about terrorism and justice. This is a movie that touches your heart and makes you cry, but most importantly makes you think about the world we are living in. I truly hope that this movie receives several awards because it truly deserves it.
In a …

Director: Bruno Barreto. Featuring: Christina Applegate, Candice Bergen and Gwyneth Paltrow.
This is a cute little story enjoyable to watch and easy on the eyes. Yet if your time is really precious, save it for something else.
It tells the story of a young woman named Donns (Paltrow) from a …

I tend to like a lot of films, especially drama films which have a historical setting. These films do not necessarily have to be based on a factual story either, and they do not have to be set in the far history like medieval times. This is what attracted …

I generally liked the Rambo films when they came out. The third installment, however, was one too many for a franchise that was otherwise really good.
In the third movie, Rambo is sent into Afghanistan to rescue his former commander from the Soviets. He ends up helping a terrorist group …

This movie is for the advent court room fanatic…if you like law and the suspense behind the court scenes, then this movie is right up your alley. Theodore ‘Ted’ Crawford (Sir Anthony Hopkins) catches his wife cheating with a local detective. Staging an elaborate murder scene, he shoots his …

I watched a movie with a friend, he was so excited about Make it Happen, a movie similar and is actually from the same creators of “Step Up”. Well the movie is really simple, I feel it does need a little more depth in it, I have totally wasted …

One of the biggest signs of spring in the Vancouver area of BC is the opening of one of the few remaining drive-in theatres in the province, the Twilight Drive-In in Langley. I have gone to movies there when I was a teen-ager, many years ago now, but as …

I am of the opinion that this movie is one of the greatest drug stories ever told. Johnny Depp and Benicio DelToro star in Terry Gilliam’s adaptation of Hunter S. Thompson’s cult novel. The movie opens with the two lead characters Raoul Duke (Depp) and his attorney (Del Toro), …

Anime movie about a teenage girl who saves the life of a cat that starts talking to her, something that changes her life completely.
The film was produced by the famous studio Ghibli where Hayao Miyazaki is producing his films. However, this is not near the same class his his …

A movie that children and adults alike will enjoy is Gremlins. Gremlins are these little creatures that are fierce and scary and evolve, magically, from Mogwai. You see, the Mogwai are fine and lovable and rather like little teddy bears, unless they have water. Once the water gets on …

Brittany Murphy is cute, very cute, and from what I can see that is one of the driving forces of Love and Other Disasters.
This movie is a romantic comedy which appears to desperately want to be different yet is stuck with every cliche you can think of, from the …

Mrs. Doubtfire, the movie will always be in my heart. A special one, that is. It starts off with Robin Williams, being separated from his wife and they have children together.
He loves them so much and wanting to be close to them, disguises himself as a …

To Kill A King with Tim Roth and Dougray Scott.

It’s been a few years since Mulder and Scully apparently called case closed on their last X-File, but you can’t keep a pair like that down for long.

First time I heard about the break-up that combines Vince Vaughn and Jennifer Aniston, I feel very much enthusiastic because I expect a really funny movie about love but unfortunately, I was totally disappointed.
This movie is about Brooke and Gary who break-up but both of them do not want …

The 1988 film starring Sigourney Weaver called “Gorillas in the Mist: The Story of Dian Fossey” was something that surprised me. Normally, I am not one to really enjoy films such as these, but this film changed my mine towards movies that capture the real life events of people …

“Every frame a painting,” is a term that could be aptly applied to this movie. And awhile its fairly static camera movement could mean a slow-burning calorie to be devoured by any human being watching this, the results are staggering. This is a widely-fleshed drama of two suffering characters trying …

This movie is one of my favorites. It is a story of a true love that is against all odds. This is a box office movie in 2004. It earns millions of dollars worldwide.
The story starts with two elderly people in a nursing home resident. …

I am reviewing the movie, The Sentinel, starring Michael Douglas and Kiefer Sutherland. Michael Douglas’ character is a secret service agent working for the president. He’s a good secret service agent. Everyone can depend on him, and everyone trusts him, except his former best friend, played by Kiefer …

I have seen plenty of musical films that take the generic route but not this one, the music is the real heart of this movie. The characters and the plot revolves around the idea of making good songs that will move the audiences without asking them.
I was moved watching this …

I remember hearing my share about the latest Robo Cop film. Many said the film was awesome and was better than the older, originals films, while others swore that the film sucked. So to say I decided to watch it for myself.
The problem with remakes of old movies …

Every girl has perhaps seen and watched one of the most popular and most remembered fairy tales of all time - Cinderella. Every girl would have been dazzled by the magic of this movie, sympathized with Cinderella, fell in love with the prince, thrilled with the 12 midnight curfew, and …

John Cusack (Jonathan Trager) and Kate Beckinsale (Sara Thomas) star in this dramatic romantic comedy that is just phenomenal. The both meet a department store where they met each other on the issue of a pair of gloves. Dare I say, I just love Kate’s smile.
A mutual attraction is …

This movie stars Katherine Heigl as Abby Richter, a producer of a morning televion show in the not-so-glamorous Sacramento, and Gerard Butler as Mike Chadway, a television show host claiming to be an expert on how relationships work.
