After the Sunset
I don’t hear much about this movie, so I assume it didn’t get much attention when it was released and not many people know about it. In fact, I can remember when I first saw it being aired on a cable television movie channel, I wondered how come I …
Hanging up movie
Hanging up is a very normal movie which has nothing unique about it. The only saving grace of the movie is Meg Ryan’s impeccable performance. She single handedly did everything and the whole movie rests on her shoulders and she did a great job in doing that job perfectly. …

The Chronicles of Narnia- Lion, Witch, Wardrobe (PG, 2005)
I avoided the Chronicles of Narnia for a long time because I thought it was one of those really trippy kid flicks that would end up being either really boring or so far-fetched that I’d just grow disinterested. It turns out that this movie really is far fetched. …

Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull
This movie is set in the fifties. The ending is really surprising although the rest of the movie follows along just as you would expect you to. I thought the predictability of the movie was a real drag. It’s like I could have written the script …

Columbus (2017 Drama Film)
“Every frame a painting,” is a term that could be aptly applied to this movie. And awhile its fairly static camera movement could mean a slow-burning calorie to be devoured by any human being watching this, the results are staggering. This is a widely-fleshed drama of two suffering characters trying …
Batman Returns
I got a chance to re-watch the movie Batman Returns last night and have to say, I can now understand why that installment of Batman movies went downhill in a hurry.
The first Batman, starring Michael Keaton, is still one of my favorite movies. This sequel to that movie wasn’t …

Movie Good Shepherd (2007)
Don’t go to the new spy drama “The Good Shepherd” expecting to see Matt Damon pull secret agent type as he does in his “Bourne” thrillers.
