Dirty Dancing
How often does a movie come along that you can watch it 5 times in one day and not ever get tired of it? I think the music is what makes this movie so good. And of course, the dancing. And Patrick Swayze. Oh my goodness, he is gorgeous …

Knocked Up
Knocked Up is an honest, down-to-earth movie about a one-night stand gone terribly wrong. From its title, you can sense the bluntness that is also throughout the film. The dialogue it truly funny and easy to associate with because it feels like stuff your friends would really say in …

Starred Up (drama movie)
Starred Up was one of those movies that was recommended to me. However, at the time I didn’t pay it much attention because I’ve never heard the movie mentioned anywhere else. I figured it was going to be one of those low budget flops that was more of a waste …

Hangover Part 2 movie
I am not exactly a big fan of sequels, so when I heard that they intended to make Hangover 2, I was more than a little skeptical. I absolutely adored The Hangover and it is among my friends’ favourites when it comes to comedy as well. It made me …

Pollard serves as the host of The …
Hedwig and the Angry Inch (movie)
I don’t like most musicals because I find the majority of them boring and almost ridiculous. It really doesn’t matter what they’re about either, because they generally evoke the same feelings within me. I knew absolutely nothing about Hedwig and the Angry Inch when I was younger, because if …

Well, actually, I had heard of …
Movie Leon
In Leon (The Professional), the movie, is the first time that I ever saw Natalie Portman in a movie, and she was pretty young back then. Being young did not seem to faze this great actress, however, as she played the part of Mathilda beautifully. Not only does …

Son-in-Law
The funny thing about the movie Son-in-Law is the fact it’s funny the first time you see it but gets less and less funny every time you watch it.
Pauly Shore might have been yesterday’s Larry the Cable Guy but the reality is his movies really lack any real substance …

Movie The eye
This was an excellent movie. It started out great and it ended great. It kept me interested throughout the whole movie. I would recommend anyone to watch it. It wasn’t gory at all so if you don’t like gory movies you don’t have to worry about that. It was …
“8 Mile” (2002 Film)
While Eminem and Brittney Murphy, along with Mikai Phiffer are very talented, I have to wonder if the movie they starred in, “8 Mile” which was featured in theaters in 2002, was really a film worth watching. The film itself I believe was trying to do something positive …

Movie 17 Again
I recently ordered 17 Again from Netflix. I had mixed feelings about it. It was mildly entertaining with some cute parts, and I am a big fan of Michelle Trachtenburg, who plays the main character Mike’s daughter. Otherwise, the movie was a little cheesy and unrealistic. …
Prince Caspian
I think that the movie Prince Caspian is unduly overlooked. I am a huge fan of Narnia, so maybe I’m biased, but I do believe that this movie deserves far more recognition and rave. Ever since the first Narnia movie was released, I looked forward to Prince Caspian; the …
Who Am I movie
As far as Jackie Chan movies go, Who Am I is far from his best film. However, it is still one of the better action movies ever made and does provide non-stop entertainment throughout.

Faeries movie

The Valet (2007)

Bruce Almighty (2003)
This is a ludicrous comedy from the outside but a heresy from the inside. Many Christians who are adept with the Biblical principles will definitely not agree with some ideas presented in this movie concerning God and his being. I admit some scenes here are really funny like when …
Movie Swan Princess
I decided to sit down and watch a movie with my daughter yesterday before she took her nap. After some discussion (I really did not want to watch another Scooby Doo movie), we ended up watching The Swan Princess. I didn’t know what to expect at first, but it …
Goodbye First Love by Mia Hansen-Love (2012 film)
Movies draw on snippets of reality to make us closer to life itself when we watch, to condition our minds to believe. How reality can arise from a movie so clearly that it overwhelms is a rare experience. Very few movies are able to touch on that …
