I am not a big fan of Batman series as such, but I heard a lot of good reviews about this new flick, and some of my friends also recommended me this movie, so I finally decided to give it a watch on this weekend., I went to …
Paul Walker movie
I recently rented the movie Running Scared with Paul Walker from Blockbuster. I completely recommend this movie for almost everybody! The only people who might not like it are those who don’t like a little violence. IT is a great ‘mobster’ type of movie revolving around Paul …
Munich: Movie
I found Munich to be a very interesting and well-made Movie, though partly down to my political interests.
It is truly an intriguing story, based on true events, for anyone with an interest in politics, war and undercover assignments.
The opening scenes of the Munich shootings at the 1972 Olympics are …
Netflix Service
I honestly do not know how we functioned before Netflix came along. What now seems to be a fact of life in many American homes, used to once be a luxury that people got if they were well off and far too lazy to make their way to the …
Grand Finale: FIFA World Cup 2006 movie
Positives: Comprehensive, narrative, informative and captivating.
Negatives: Too short, concise but could do with a bit more detail, narrow topic focus.
As an avid football enthusiast, it came as no surprise at all that I would look forward to viewing this documentary-type motion picture of a past FIFA World Cup, 2006, …
Movie The Kingdom
It is a true pity that the movies “The Kingdom” and “Rendition” were released in the same year. I feel that these are both true exceptional movies with a great message to send across to humanity; however they will end up being compared with each other.
These movies tackle …
The Legend of Zorro (2005)
The Legend of Zorro, directed by Martin Campbell is rated PG by the Motion Picture Association of America and stars Antonio Banderas as Zorro and Alejandra and Catherine Zeta-Jones as Elena.

Tom Hooper’s biographical movie “The King’s Speech”
On the rare occasion when I spare the money to see a film when it is first released to the cinematic theatres, I tend to be cautious: it is easy to turn off my TV or switch between channels, but a choice made between movies at the cinema is …

Failure to launch/Matthew Mcconagughey & Sarah Jessica Parker
I loved this movie tremendously. As a survivor of the dating scene, I think we have all encountered at least one guy like this. It seems like he is the perfect guy that you have long been searching for. He has all the great qualities and looks irresistable. Then …
Resident Evil 4: Afterlife
Resident Evil 4: Afterlife was a very wonderful surprise for a lover of the video series like myself. The movie promised to be better then Extinction, but I didn’t believe that. I thought it would be another long, drawn out movie …
Cloverfield
This is either a movie you’re going to love or you’re going to hate. As such, it’s understandable why this movie got mixed reviews. What I had read had been more positive than negative so I went ahead and picked it up on DVD (this was before …
Fair Game movie
A second rate action film with the model Cindy Crawford in the role of a woman who is followed by a seemingly crazy man. This whole film is an excuse for promoting Crawford’s career in my opinion, and that result is, not very unexpected, an embarrassing attempt of something …
Husbands and Wives (1992) Woody Allen Movie
I would give Woody Allen’s ‘Husbands and Wives’ ten out of ten for being completely perfect, but you will hate it if you have to have a Hollywood ending. This is kind of awkward viewing. It has a rather serious, dramatic feel to it and the humour …
P2
When I came across the movie P2 on one of our movie channels last night, I confess I only decided to watch it because it was getting late and there really wasn’t much else on. When I put it on, I figured it wasn’t going to be a good …

Ghosts of Girlfriends Past movie
Ghosts of Girlfriends Past, a 2009 release, stars Matthew McConaughey and it’s positively brilliant. Okay, so it’s a revamped version of Scrooge, but a good story is a good story. In fact, there’s a moment at the end when McConaughey’s character teases just a bit about …

If you are not afraid of dogs by now you will be after watching the movie Cujo. Stephen King is the master of horror and he really does make you fear dogs and never look at them in the same way ever again. The movie is about a a killer …
Alice in Wonderland Movie (2010)
Alice in Wonderland was my favorite cartoon movie before, and I would always dream and wished I was Alice so I could eat the cookies and drink the potion that would make me smaller or bigger than my average size. I wanted to be Alice when I was a …
The Final Destination movie
We decided to rent the fourth Final Destination movie The Final Destination on Saturday. I’m not sure why we thought it would be as good as the first two (or even the crappy third one), but it proved to be somewhat of a mistake.
The movie had a plot that …
Thirteen Ghost’s (2001 Film)

The Sentinel (2006) movie
My dad got a dvd two pack and this is one of the movies in the pack so I decided I would watch it since I missed it in theaters and the plot seemed pretty appealing to me.
Pretty simple plot to go with. There is a bug within …
Because of Winn-Dixie (2005 movie)
I remember seeing the ads for this movie when it first hit theaters several years ago. I had no idea what the storyline was. All I knew was that it was about a girl and her dog, and that alone was enough to make me want to see it. …
Alvin and the Chipmunks movie
I hated this movie so much for many different reasons. One of the main ones was that I expected that they would have made a better movie for it being that “Alvin and the Chipmunks” cartoons would come on local tv on Saturday mornings and it was one of …
3:10 to Yuma

I’m not fan of Batman and I watched this movie because it’s rated as 5 star in CinemaOnline (Malaysia) website. I even couldn’t remember the previous Batman movie.
I found it very boring and couldn’t wait for the end of the movie before the first half of the movie …
Halloween 2 movie
Rob Zombie returns with the follow up to his remake of the seminal slasher film. Last time, he made a terrible job of the remake and this time round he makes an even crappier job with its sequel. Well, that isn’t really fair. The awful flashback sequences from the …
Life of Brian movie
The Monty Python crew makes fun of old religious values. Brian is born on the same day as Jesus and is stalked by the life of this man for the rest of his life. The film is more of a series a brilliant sketches than a film with a …
Fred Claus the movie
We just finished watching Fred Claus. The storyline did go a lot different than I thought it would. It was entertaining and I would say, worth renting or buying the dvd. I don’t think, that if given the choice, I would go pay to see it in the theater. …
