Equilibrium (R, 2002) movie
I have been passing over this film in my queue for a couple of years now. I finally decided to give it a chance, and immediately realized what my inner voice had been telling me for quite a while. This movie is crap. Sorry for …
The Bourne Supremacy
There’s rarely a sequel to a Hollywood blockbuster that lives up the original in any way. I have to agree with this when it comes to the second installment of the Jason Bourne series, The Bourne Supremacy. Though it’s still good, I can’t say that it holds a candle …
The Damned movie
A story that focuses on rich german people during the World War II and how naive they were. Director Luchino Visconti is known for his long epic-style films, and this one is not an exception. The narrative is slow but yet very engaging. Visconti gives his audience a lot …

Shutter Island movie
This movie totally lived up to all the hype I heard about it. I personally am not a big Leonardo Decaprio fan and it was almost the reason I didn’t watch this movie. However I heard so many good things about it that I just had to suck …
Date Movie
I once read a review about some of the worst movies released in the year of 2006, and it listed the movie “Date Movie” as one of the worst. However, even though I didn’t think that the movie was particularly good and hilarious, I still did not see it …

The Elephant Man
If you are not familiar with the story of Joseph (John) Merrick, known as The Elephant Man, this movie will come as a shock. Based on a true story of a man with severe physical deformities, it is often painful to watch. John Hurt plays the unfortunate Merrick. Heavy …
Movie Iron Man (2008)
Iron Man (2008) is an action film by Jon Favreau that’s rated PG-13 for some intense sequences of sci-fi action and violence, and brief suggestive content.

Saw V
Saw V is the second movie in the series where James Wan had nothing to do with, this time they got a new director, David Hackl. The movie was released around Halloween again, a year after the last. While not as pathetic as Saw IV this film is pathetic, …
The Eclipse
The opinions concerning Michelangelo Antonioni are very divided. Some think he’s the greatest master of cinema ever, while others think he’s too pretentious and never really learned how to make a film properly. Personally I am somewhere between those two. I think his earlier work such as The Cry, …
Angel’s Fall film
I am reviewing the Nora Roberts film, Angel’s Fall. So there’s this woman. She used to work in this restaurant cooking. One night a shooter entered the place and shot all of her co-workers, including her best friend. She was the only one left alive. Ever since then, this …
Movie How to Deal
Once again, I have to admit, I’m becoming more and more impressed with Mandy Moore whenever I see her in a movie. And, this time it was on Lifetime.
Her film How to Deal is actually an interesting look into the mind of a teenager. She comes from a divorced …
Movie: What Happens in Vegas
As I mentioned in another review, I had a chance to watch a couple movies yesterday evening (it was raining out and there wasn’t anything good on TV). One of the films I re-watched for the first time in a couple years was the movie What happens in Vegas.
This …
Odd Couple 2 movie
I am reviewing the movie, The Odd Couple 2, starring Jack Lemmon and Walter Matthau. There are two movies in this series, and this is the second one. The first one is, naturally, called The Odd Couple, and it features a very young looking Walter Matthau and …
Connie and Carla
Connie and Carla is a nice comedy movie. The movie stars Nia Vardalos, Toni Collette and David Duchovny in the main roles and they did a nice job. It is the story of two friends, Vardalos and Collette whose love for musical theater makes them remain jobless. They don’t …

Lt. Robin Crusoe USN
This is not one of Disney’s most well acclaimed live action films to emerge from the 1960’s. Most critics pretty well abhor it, though, suprisingly, it was one of the most popular films from the year it was released.
Disney favorite Dick Van Dyke stars as Robin Crusoe a navy …
Little Miss Sunshine
I kept missing “Little Miss Sunshine” when it was in my local cinemas so I was pleased to see it had been rushed to DVD. The movie stars Alan Arkin, a favorite of mine since I first saw “Catch-22″ more than thirty years ago as well as Greg Kinnear …
Perfect Neighbor movie
I watched a couple of movies on Lifetime movie network today and this was one of the movies that they played. It was kind of interesting, it could have been better. The movie had a pretty good ending to it. It was about a neighbor that was crazy and …
Cleaner, thriller film
Samuel L. Jackson, Ed Harris, and Eva Mendes make up a stellar cast that didn’t make it too big in theaters. Cleaner feels a lot like an episode of CSI, a television show that has millions of viewers each and every week. With its CSI qualities there is more …
Godzilla (1998 movie)
A giant lizard is found rampaging through the streets of Manhattan in the United States of America. Trying to quell the danger that it might unleash on human kind, a military and scientific team join forces to find out what is going on, and more important, where did it …
Constantine (the Movie)
I watched Constantine (with Keanu Reeves) for the fifth or sixth time again last night. Every time I watch it, this movie seems to get better. Even though it came out in 2005, it still doesn’t cease to impress me and I think it will always remain to be …
Puppet Master 2 movie
Puppet Master 2 is one of my favorite movies of all times. I love the feeling and spooky feel of this film. The sotry is very well written and the acting by the puppet master in this film is truly very scary and very dark. I thought the theme song …
Harry Potter And The Half-Blood Prince
I happen to be HUGE Harry Potter fan, and I was so excited to go see the new movie this Sunday. In the past, I didn’t quite get how good these books were, but my cousin who happened to own the first three books made me read them one summer …
Lost Room movie
I am reviewing the Sci Fi original mini series, The Lost Room, starring Peter Krause. The story starts in a remote motel room in 1961, when a terrible event happened. The mini series focuses on a time forty some years later. Peter Krause (from Six Feet Under) …
Alvin and the Chipmunks Movie
I have to admit Alvin and the Chipmunks is now my new favorite movie! I dont think I have ever laughed so hard at one movie! My kids really enjoyed this movie so much. My 5 year old son watched it 4 times over the weekend. I think he …
Derailed (2002)
Canada, you must be so proud. The only butt kicker who can rival Steven Seagal in this modern age is at it again with this 2002 film, action packed and adventure lade, Derailed. Jean-Claude Van Damme, Canada’s favorite son, is revising his role as the toughest SOB ever to …
UP movie
I went with my niece Jaime to see the newly release UP movie, I wasn’t so impressed but my niece was, a 5 yr old would be impressed by a lot of things.
I just enjoyed the movie a lot, and so did my niece. I felt the characters were …
Audition (movie) 1999
This film has left me pretty stunned and I really need to watch it again. Yes, I think it is very good but it is certainly not to everyone’s taste. There is a rather famous, or infamous, torture scene that is truly agony to experience, but I …
Ella Enchanted: Movie
Ella Enchanted is a fun movie that is good for all ages. It is a fantasy, taking place in an imaginary world where magic is real. When baby Ella is born, a fairy grants her the “gift” of obedience. This means that every time someone gives …
The Wedding Date movie
I decided to watch this movie because the trailer seemed to be an interesting story and because the actor, Dermot Mulroney had the main part. I must say that although it is a good movie, it isn’t as great as I imagined.
So what went wrong with this movie? I …
Vicky Cristina Barcelona
The movie “Vicky Cristina Barcelona” is a complicated film. The setting is the first feature I noticed and loved-Spain is a gorgeous back drop for this romantic comedy. I hesitate to call it ‘romantic comedy’ because it certainly isn’t the set pattern of today’s romantic comedy, which gets predictable …
How to lose a guy in 10 days
How to lose a guy in 10 days is a nice romantic movie and is one of the best romantic movies of this decade. Matthew McConaughey played the central characters in this movie and they are adorable as a pair. Andie (played by Kate Hudson) is a journalist for …

10000 B.C. Movie

Pain and Gain (Film 2013)
Pain and Gain is a film I watched after browsing the web one day and seeing that Dwayne Johnson was going to be staring in one of the roles. I will admit that I am a really big fan of Dwayne Johnson, and I was excited to see him …
Movie The Notebook
I really have always liked James Garner as an actor and he starred in a really nice little film called The Notebook. This love story also stareed Rachel McAdams, Ryan Gosling, Gena Rowlands and James Garner. The story starts with James garner visiting with his ladylove (Rowlands) in a …
Film The Bank Job
The Bank Job is a retread of the tried and tested, ‘caper film with likable London criminals’ formula, in the same vain as the Italian Job, but with more banking, and no Michael Caine.
Now, although it has no new ideas there are good things about this film, not the …
Glitter movie
Beautiful and gifted young female singer longs for and eventually achieves great fame, but, in her quest, faces loss and tragedy in love and life.
This is a typical formula movie plot used for decades in films, with the exception that it exceeds the others in sheer awfulness.
“Glitter” was made …
LadyHawke film
LadyHawke is one of Matthew Broderick’s better films even though most people probably haven’t seen it.
The movie is full of medieval fantasy and magic as he tries to help a couple that is cursed. The woman is a hawk by day and the man a wolf by night, keeping …
Saw
Saw is a new kind of horror film that I had never seen before, the movie came off tacky at times, but it was interesting and cool enough to let the small things go, the plot I think is really good and kept me interested, 2 people wake up …
Reeker
Reeker is darn scary. You should rent this and watch; it is awesomely scary and something that I would truly opt for if you want to watch in a group, say on a scary Friday night with the weekend in tow and nothing to do.
The plot goes …
Wall-E
I took my entire family to see the Pixar movie Wall-E in June, 2008. Wall-E is a spectacular motion picture that is probably the most “adult” of any movie Pixar has released thus far. I say “adult” not because of any inappropriate content - the little robots …
The New pornographers Twin Cinemas CD
Thie is a great fun little album that seems to find its way into my Cd player time and time again. The New pornographers are a band, buch like the shins that put out a hppy popish like sound unlike many other bands today. their music fun, and uplifting. …
Predators Movie
I have seen this movie last night and even though I didn’t want to watch it because I’m not fond of alien-predator fighting scenes and the only alien-predator movie that I liked is Alien versus Predators, and not humans versus aliens and predators, I had just watched this since …
Escape to Witch Mountain (remake) movie
In 1995, a remake of Escape to Witch Mountain was made, but it didn’t just follow the same story. It what is frequently referred to as a re-think. Basically, we have two babies who appear in a purple light and then get separated for many years. …
The Game Plan Movie
Dwayne Johnson is hot. There is no doubt about it. And it gets even better seeing him star opposite a little girl star Madison Pettis. This is about a famous foot ball player who doesn’t know that he has a daughter, and the girl shows up on his doorstep. …

That’s one of the most famous movie quotes ever, and it’s from this movie that captured the country’s attention upon its release. Starring Ryan O’Neal and Ali McGraw, Love Story is a powerfully emotional drama about two lovers from different backgrounds …
