Johnny English (2003)
Rowan Atkinson’s reputation as a comedy actor is still as good as ever. What I can say about this movie is that it’s got good casting. They got John Malkovich on board. His French accented English is ridiculous but I think that’s more like it when …

Disney’s A Christmas Carol (2009) is a 3-D animation retelling of Charles Dickens’ classic novel [Rated PG for scary sequences and images].

Belle (historical drama movie)
I love watching historical movies, and that is why I was so eager to see “Belle” after I had seen the trailer only months before it was released. What piqued my interest about it even more was that it was supposed to be based on the story revolving around a …

Strictly Sexual Movie
The title ‘Strictly Sexual’ invariably attracts the attention of youngsters and middle-aged people.

However, after I watched it, ‘Strictly Sexual’ is just an ordinary movie with a …
Dead Like Me: The Escape Artist
What I liked most about Dead Like Me: The Escape Artist is one of the scenes at the end. Barbara Barrie appears again as Joy’s mother. The two don’t get along very well, but yet at the end, they share a calm moment. The really good …

Movie Fired Up
We watched the movie Fired Up this past weekend. When I decided to watch it, I wasn’t sure what to expect, but it turned out to be an OK movie.

Iron Man
Today I went to see Iron Man. What an excellent film.

Ong Bak
It’s a martial-art action movie. Fantastic thai martial-art show, and just an average action film.
Honestly, everything is common. Standard story, nothing special on the effects, just an acceptable filming quality and not much of an acting. Even one of my friend made a joke after watching this movie. He …
Scream Dream
The low budget horror film Scream Dream is a very sad attempt to recreate previous successful cinematic shockers. The lighting of the this movie is absolutely terrible, and the acting abilities are worse. You get a very strong impression that the movie was produced with a home video …
For What It’s Worth (2004) Dave Chappelle
I love Dave Chappelle. His sense of humor is insane. I love the easy way that he fires off hilarious tidbits and can easily bring an audience to its knees (and to its feet at the end of the show). The title “comedic genuis” fits him well. For those …
