Warm Bodies (movie)
Just a few days ago, one of my friends and I went to see the movie “Warm Bodies”, which seemed like one of the few interesting movies going on despite what some people had said about it in reviews on the internet. The few reviews and comments about it …

Happy Feet Movie
Australian Director’s Animated Comedy ‘Happy Feet’ can best be described as just a fun, somewhat funny, family comedy. Lets clear from the very beginning, that while this film did win the Best Animated Film Oscar, it is not exactly the most satisfying movie experience. There is not much in …
RedBox Kiosk to Rent Movies
I have lived in several states over the past few years and each place I lived had a RedBox kiosk somewhere close by. Usually the kiosk was located at Wal-Mart or Kroger.
I have only had two incidents with using RedBox, but was compensated for each infraction. Twice I …
Twilight movie
The only positive thing that I could say about this movie is that it is consistent, that is, similar to the book where it was based from, it consistently disappoints. About a year ago, I remember my curiosity when everyone seemed very interested, so much into this new series …
The 6th Day Movie
“The 6th Day” takes place in the future, where cloning of animals is a commonplace procedure that takes place every day. When somebody loses a pet, they just “re-pet” it, not only creating an identical twin of their dead pet but even implanting the memories the old pet used …
The Cabin in the Woods (2012) Movie

Vantage Point
Vantage Point is a movie that I had watched a few weeks back which I think had no plot whatsoever. Indeed if you see the title, it is sort of misleading and you would think that it is a boring movie. But it turned out to be a …
The Polar Express (2004 Film)
The 2004 holiday film called “The Polar Express” is a heartwarming and touching film that really captures the pure and innocent magic of the Christmas season through the eyes of a child. It is a movie that the entire family will absolutely fall in love with and give everyone …
Push movie
“Push” is a movie about people with powers. It’s set in a world where many people have powers that an secret agency has classified under terms like “pusher”, “reader,” “mover” and “eraser”. I was curious about this movie, even more so since it’s the first non-serious movie I’ve seen …
The Break-Up movie
Doing romantic movies when your love life is in full turmoil must be pretty tough. I believe that “The Break-Up” represent this aspect to the actress, Jennifer Aniston. On the set of this movie, she meets the actor, Vince Vaughn and for a short while they had a relationship …
Pan’s Labyrinth (Laberinto del Fauno)
I remember first seeing a preview for Pan’s Labyrinth and thinking to myself, “This movie’s gonna be stupid!” and “It’s a rip-off of Chronicles of Narnia!”. After hearing about how great the movie supposedly was, of course I had to see for myself. Now I can say that this …
You Can’t Run Away From It movie
I’m not sure if I’ve seen You Can’t Run Away From It before or not. It’s vaguely familiar, but not readily in my brain. Of course, it could be the basic story that rings in my head since this is a musical remake of the classic, “It …

Street Kings Movie
I’m not a big fan of action-packed thriller movies. However, when my husband bought this DVD and asked me to watch with him, I was impressed that it kept me engrossed right till the end of the movie. I thought that I’d have lost interest in it half way.
I …

“Phone” Movie 2004 from Tartan Asia Extreme
I rented this movie from Netflix because I had pretty much seen all the other horror ones on my list and had become bored waiting for new ones to come out. I had enjoyed foreign films in the past, and always found Asian horror to be different and interesting. Like …
Police Academy (movie)
I haven’t watched the unedited version (as in, actual movie not one edited for TV) of Police Academy in years. But, after watching it again last weekend, I have to say I now realize just how good it was.
Other movies have tried to put together an insane group of …

Blades of Glory
When we rented Blades of Glory, I didn�t know what to expect from it. We�ve watched Will Ferrell movies in the past and, while some are absolutely hilarious, there are just as many that were very disappointing to us.
The good news for us was, while I wouldn�t put Blades …
Legal Eagles Movie
The Legal Eagles movie is the kind of movie that is still interesting to watch even many years after it was made. It is still thrilling and intriguing even when there is a major development in technology and forensic science, and our cultural tastes and notions about art change. …

At Point Blank movie
A swedish “action” film about a team of bank robbers and how their actions finally lead to death. I am thrilled to see this kind of garbage from the swedish film industry today. This is probably the worst piece of junk I’ve ever experienced in swedish cinema. The whole …
The Unbelievable Truth movie
This is one of my favorite Hal Hartley films. Brave, daring narrative and visual style, an engaging story focused on human dignity and about the coolest soundtrack ever makes this one of Hartley’s prime works, and also places him in the rare group of interesting american filmmakers the last …
Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles - Episode 1.1: Pilot

There are good scenes where Parker …
Rest Stop: Don’t Look Back (NR, 2008)
I only rented this movie because I thought that the first one was fairly decent. Looking back, I realize that not only was the first one not as good as I’d imagined, there NEVER should have been a sequel. The whole concept behind this film …
Movie: “Grandma’s Boy” (2006)
Although this film received poor reviews upon release, I have to say it’s one of my all-time favorite films. It’s one of the funniest movies I’ve ever seen. It’s one of those movies you can watch over and over, and it’s still hilarious.
Alex (Covert) is a 35-year-old video game …
X-men Days of Future Past (2014 Film)

Cat’s Eye
I have to say I really enjoyed the Stephen King movie Cat’s Eye. This movie was very intense and actually had me feeling scared. I thought that Quitter’s INC was a very scary episode in the film. You see Cat’s Eye is made up of 3 short movies and it …
Strawberry Shortcake: Big Country Fun
My daughter spends a great deal of time watching some of the newer episodes of Strawberry Shortcake. So, as a bit of a change, I got her one of the older episodes of the show.
While the only noticeable difference in Big Country Fun compared to other Strawberry Shortcake movies …
Movie: Fingerprints
When my wife picked out the movie Fingerprints off our Netflix instant watch queue last night, I honestly wasn’t expecting a whole lot from the movie. After all, most of the so-called horror films out there are nothing more than soft-core porn in disguise or think extra blood and …
Harvey,1950 movie
“Harvey” is a charming story of Elwood P. Dowd (Jimmy Stewart), a 42 year old bachelor, a kind, pleasant man and a perfect gentleman who has a rather unusual best friend - a six feet tall white rabbit Harvey visible only to him (initially). Elwood’s numerous friends are fine …

Movie 2012
I liked this movie. It’s another movie from Roland Emmerich, which I consider to be the master of disaster movies the likes of Independence Day and The Day After Tomorrow. Apparently, he produced and directed this film for Columbia Pictures, which is of course owned by the …
