Shinobi is a japanese movie but depending on where you get it, it comes with english subs (in my case, thai and chinese were available also). Shinobi actually means ninja. It’s your typical movie of two ninja tribes going against each other but the boy and girl from different …

Will Smith truly has proved his worth and value as an actor and his convincing acting in I Am Legend truly shines. As usual, movies like this gives me the jitters but I braved myself to watch it on the cinemas when it was first shown.
There is …

I must admit that I wasn’t expecting much out of the movie “The Shawshank Redemption”. At the time I wasn’t aware that this movie was nominated for 7 Oscars. I felt that after watching endless episodes of the TV series “Prison Break”, I doubted that there was any prison …

I have noticed that many people who have reviewed Transformers 2: Revenge of the Fallen in papers and on the internet have not given it the greatest reviews. I went and saw the movie for myself and I do not completely agree with the reviews. Yes, the movie is …

While the trailers made this movie look like a formulaic popcorn flick, I had heard generally good things about this movie. The truth is, it is something of a mixed bag.
As the trailers show, the movie follows a young woman (played by Scarlett Johansson) who becomes something superhuman …

Whenever I read a tabloid article about Lindsay Lohan getting busted for drunk driving or entering re-hab, I can’t help but be saddened. That’s because, for all the negative publicity she receives, she is actually not that bad of an actress.
Her latest movie, I know who killed me, is …

After the numerous video game-related films like Super Mario Bros, Street Fighter, and Double Dragon that were utter disasters, I’m cynical when Hollywood makes a movie involving video games or a movie is based on a noted property. Once in a while, Hollywood will surprise me with a …

This sleeper hit was about the Blackout that occurred in 2003 on the Northeast Seaboard. This movie was certainly hidden, because I’d never heard about it until I stumbled across it on Netflix. In any case, there aren’t too many big names. Sean Blakemore has a …

The 40 Year Old Virgin with Steve Carell.
This is one funny movie. If it were a 40 year old woman virgin, it would definitely not be that funny; but putting a normal looking man into this predicament is full of hilarious opportunities.

The 2005 film, Sin City, is based on the graphic novels of Frank Miller who also co-directed along with Robert Rodriguez. I can imagine that anyone who is a fan of such graphic novels will appreciate this film a lot more than I did, although I did find …

When my roommate rented this, I was expecting another Eragon, an unoriginal fantasy that rehashes the same elements that we’ve seen before. The fact that this movie was brought to us by the same studio that gave us “Good Burger” did nothing to squelch my fear that we …

This cult-rated romantic comedy was the very first of a long series of similar films, all starring Meg Ryan as practically the same character. When Harry met Sally was directed by the talented Rob Reiner (even though he wasted his talent at several occasions in my opinion), and also …

When there were rumors about this movie coming out, I was pretty sketpical on how well it could be done. Yeah special effects have come a long way in the past few years and we have computer graphics that make the most outlandish things appear real, but could the …

I’m not a teeny pinky type of person who likes “pop culture”. But, I must say, though the movie “Just Like Heaven” considered as a romatic-comedy that is the target crowd was kind of teens turns out nicely nice.
It is indeed a light kind of movie with a justified …

Shelter is a movie that could have been so much more. It had all the right ingredients: a great actress in the lead- Julianne Moore, a thrilling concept and some well researched information about actual rites and traditions. But the way all of it was put together, just did …
