Half a dozen babies
This was an alright movie overall. I found it to be a little funny if anything. I didn’t really care for it all that much. It’s kind of a chick movie. It’s about this couple that want to have babies and they can’t seem to get pregnant, well they …
The Deaths of Ian Stone
I’m a huge SyFy junkie, so when I watched this movie a while back, The Many Deaths of Ian Stone, I was mystified and captivated. Of course, it’s a made-for-tv movie, so the special effects leave a lot to be desired, but as far as these movies go, it’s …

Taken (2009) Movie
I heard about this movie from my dad, and I couldn’t stop thinking about it because my dad couldn’t stop talking about it! He said that it was a really good movie… and he was right.

Who ever knew that Sylvester Stallone could be a comedian, and a pretty good one at that. I have to commend the directors who put together this magnificent cast, they hit the jackpot. A mobster trying to go legit, with a comedic twist, you’ve got to love it. There …
Garfield: Tale of Two Kitties
We got Garfield, Tale of Two Kitties last week and were very impressed. It was a great family movie that had a great mix of action and comedy. I only wish I could have gotten my energetic 2-year-old to watch more of it.
I found myself laughing every few seconds …
A Roman Holiday (1953)
Just lately, I’ve been wondering why in my history of watching old films, I never sighted an Audrey Hepburn film in TCM, a channel repository for classic movies. Crouched in front of a grainy black and white TV screen, I like to pass the time as a nocturne …
Spotlight (2015 Drama Movie)
I was not even aware the film Spotlight existed until I saw that it was nominated for several Academy Awards. Thus I did a little bit of my own research on it and saw that the topic was definitely something that I would be interested in. What piqued my interest …

Failure to Launch
I must admit that I prefer the on screen couple, Matthew McConaughey and Kate Hudson however the on screen couple presented in the romantic comedy “Failure to Launch” with McConaughey and Sarah Jessica Parker isn’t bad at all. These two actors managed to present a romantic comedy which is …
Champagne Charlie movie
About a man called Charles Heidsieck, a wealthy person who lived in the 19th century, who is famous for the fact that he introduced champagne in America. What I find awkward about this film is that it doesn’t focus on the champagne itself, or what it had as effects …

The Bank Job (Movie)

Happenstance (R, 2000) movie
When I saw Amelie, I was really really excited to know that there would be another film featuring Audrey Tautou, a brilliant impish actress.

Mr. Mom movie
Mr. Mom is really a cute little movie from 1983. I don’t think of it as an A-list movie, but more of a B-film that still delights and is pretty funny. It was also pretty topical for its era. In truth, it’s still topical to a …

The Women movie
When I agreed to take my wife to see the movie “The Women” my first thought was “what have I gotten myself into?” However, after watching it with her, I will admit, it wasn’t as painful as I thought it would be.
While obviously a classic chick flick, I found …
Mame
In the early seventies, TV brought Auntie Mame to the small screen with Lucille Ball in the title role. Ball is just about the leading comedienne in all of film and movies, and she does a very nice job here. I liked her as Mame, and I …
Funny Games (1997 Psychological Thriller Movie)
Someone I know convinced me to watch the 1997 movie Funny Games, because according to them it was one of the best psychological thrillers they had seen in a while. I have to admit that I was a little hesitant at first because I kept thinking how I would have …

Wild Wild West
This is a most confusing film with Will Smith that combines old western style with a modern kind of tecnique and scenery. The contrast between these to is barely watchable, and regarding Smith’s performance, I don’t think he really fits in this kind of film.
It’s shocking that this was …
13: Game of Death (Movie)
This was actually a pretty good movie and I was surprised that I liked it because I usually don’t like Japanese imports. Technically this one is from Thailand, but I didn’t realize that until I went to change the subtitles on the movie.
The movie is all about this …
Moonrise Kingdom, movie (2012)
Wes Anderson, as a director, has a tendency to be too quirky for his own good. After two great films with Bottle Rocket and Rushmore, his films became inconsistent. I’m not a big fan of The Royal Tenenbaums. I highly enjoyed Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou. …
He Knows Youre Alone (movie)
I think that there are two types of slasher movie fans. These are those who like gore, and those who seem to watch slasher movies mostly for the thrill of it. Nevertheless, after watching the 1980 slasher film “He Knows You’re Alone” twice, I do not think that either …
The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly
Well, “The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly”, can be summed up as this: “Great Classic Western”. Clint Eastwood does an exceptional job as the main character. The main story is about three men who are all on a quest to retrieve a stolen cash box that is buried …
Guess Who
I must admit that I really enjoy watching Ashton Kutcher’s movies, even though he seem to always present the same type of guy on screen. However the true success of “Guess Who” is entirely to the actor Bernie Mac excellent interpretation of the character Percy Jones.
“Guess who’ is a …
