The Dark Knight
It has been about twenty-four hours since I sat down in the movie theater seat to see “The Dark Knight” and I still cannot stop thinking about it. Now, I must admit that “Batman Begins” was mediocre at best, but after hearing the wonderful reviews of the sequel, I …
He’s Just Not That Into You
I have watched this movie at least a dozen times. I first saw it in the movie theaters with my room mate during my freshman year of college. I went in there really not sure what to expect because the book itself I actually read. It was written by …

Iron Man
To me, Iron Man is one of the top five comic book movies ever made, right up there with Superman I, Spider-man 2, and the Dark Knight. Robert Downey Jr. plays Tony Stark and is the best “alter ego” of any of the super hero movie actors. …
“Playing House” (2006 Lifetime Movie Network Film)
This Lifetime Movie Network film which came out in 2006 starring Colin Ferguson and Joanne Kelly called “Playing House”, was sweet, but not exactly entertaining. The film was very predictable and common, something that I felt was seen in many movies before it but the stories were told in …
The World is Not Enough Blu-ray
Pierce Brosnan’s third outing as James Bond is one of the weakest in the series, with another ‘out there’ villain, played by Robert Carlisle and a ridiculous plot that makes ‘The World is Not Enough’ simply unbearable to sit through. Let me be clear: I hate this movie. …

Carandiru (R, 2004) movie

Now, I read about this in the book, but I never imagined that everything would be so pretty!
When I saw Hermione’s dress in the film, I just died!!!

10 Cloverfield Lane, movie
Given the name of the film and the crew behind it, one wouldn’t be wrong to think that this was somehow related to the found footage giant monster movie, “Cloverfield”.
You can tell that it isn’t a direct sequel, but I did figure it was some kind of spin-off. …

The Number 23 (2007) movie
I saw this more of an experiment to see if Jim Carrey could take on a serious role instead of his usual funny guy characters. I would have to say it was pretty failed in this movie. The concept was good but it just didn’t seem to follow through …

17 Again movie
I highly anticipated the comedy “17 Again”; I’m not a huge Zac Efron fan, but the movie looked cute. Unfortunately, it didn’t deliver.
I liked the main character’s best friend; he was a millionaire nerd whose brilliant mind earned him a ridiculous amount of wealth, but whose lack of social …
Around the World in 80 Days
