Bedtime Stories movie

I’m not as big of an Adam Sandler fan as I used to be. This is mostly because his movies always seem to rehash basically the same plot and some of the films are so terrible I can’t get through 10 minutes.
But, we decided to pick up Bedtime Stories …

The Battle of Algiers (1967) - a militaristic movie

One readily used type of warfare, since the middle 40s has involved resistance fighters– not part of any particular governmental militaristic group. The resistance fighters attack standard armies; then seem to evaporate or blend back into the populous. Further, grenades have been thrown by individuals of civilian …

Movie Freaky Friday

I sometimes think that certain producers lack fantasy in coming up with original movies. “Freaky Friday” represent a movie about twisting identity in a series of three that came and are going to be released from Hollywood. We all remember Tom Hanks famous role in “Big” and he was …

X-Men Movie

I marveled at the thought that an X-Men movie was going to be made at last, but all that was cut to threads when I finally saw the film. While the plot is comic like as it should be, it was without intrigue. Some of the characters where well …

The Fox and the Hound 2 movie

I only just watched The Fox and the Hound 2 last night, and I was so delighted with it. I’ve been wanting to see it since I heard that my favorite actor, Patrick Swayze, was one of the voices. I’m not sure why it took me so …

Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles - Episode 1.3: The Turk

The series seems to be taking an interesting direction now. It turns out that one of Dyson’s (the original Skynet creator in “Terminator 2″) interns at Cyberdyne Systems, Andy, is a new lead surrounding Skynet’s creation. He’s now a cell phone salesman (a terrible one at that) but at …

You Will Meet a Tall Dark Stranger movie

I would not want to tell you what happens in the film, perhaps only roughly. Same thing happened when I saw Closer, we concluded that the story is too good to tell everybody what happens.
The story is fairly complex because it follows the fates of several couples, old age …

Lean on Me movie

I am reviewing the movie, Lean on Me, starring Morgan Freeman. This movie is based upon actual events. Morgan Freeman plays a free spirited, gifted, dedicated teacher, who tries his best to teach his kids whatever he can. When he loses his job, he moves on …

The Little Mermaid

Of all the Walt Disney movies that are out there, the Little Mermaid has to be one of the more colorful ones. Prior to the bad sequels and the even worst television series, this movie was an inspiration for future underwater tales, including Nemo.
My daughter isn’t very good at …

Before The Devil Knows You’re Dead

I was told that this movie was incredibly good. I knew that there was some kind of twist in the plot. But I will admit that when I was told this, I interpreted it to mean that there would be some sort of surprise ending. …

Love Actually movie

I normally hate watching romance films, but since my friend fooled me that the actor Orlando Bloom was in the movie I ended up watching the movie to the end and feeling very annoyed and disappointed after as he obviously never appeared. The only thing which comforted me a …

Deadly Matrimony - Part 1 movie

From 1992, Brian Dennehy stars in Deadly Matrimony in which a woman is killed, prompting Dennehy’s character to reflect back to three years earlier.
The concept behind this movie is nothing new. It’s the successful businessman — handsome, confident, charming — who meets the beautiful and intelligent woman who …

Evita movie

I was amazed that I enjoyed Evita starring Madonna so much. I’m not a Madonna fan, which isn’t to say that I don’t recognize her talent. There are times when I hear her sing when I go, ‘whoa, she really *can* sing’ but then there are times …

Maid In Manhattan

I don’t know whether to label this story, Maid In Manhattan as being realistic or not because it is very much rare that a rich man would fall in love with someone of a lower status than him, though it’s not impossible. And a maid at that. But …

Alexander film

I love films based on historical figures. However, after finally watching the movie Alexander, I have to say I was a bit disappointed.
Based on the life of Alexander the Great, the movie focuses a bit too much on the guy who conquered the known world and not enough on …

Airheads

I love any type of movies starring Brendan Fraser! He rocks truly, and Airheads is one of those movies that made me butt-crack laughing with bit of tears in my eyes.
The trio, or rather called Airheads were really funny and they gave a loud and seemingly clever …

Juno is Good

Juno was a pretty good movie. It was the best movie I have ever seen, but it was interesting. If you don’t like weird and awkward story lines than this movie is probably not for you. However, I enjoy movies that are a little different and this movie is …

Apocalypto

Apocalypto is truly one of the most unique films I’ve ever seen. Really very interesting. The dialogues are delivered in Yucatec (ancient language during the Mayan civilization) and the actors are all unknown which makes the movie as real as real can be. Arguably Mel Gibson’s best film, Apocalypto …

Skyfall (2012)

Skyfall is an action film for the action hater. Wait! Action lovers, don’t turn away yet. It’s James Bond —“ of course this film has action. I’m saying it’s got more than just action. It’s got action and then some. That’s why I, the action hater, really enjoyed it. …

Children of Men Movie

Children of Men is in my top 10 favorite movies of all time. When I first read the plot of the movie it didn’t seem like a solid movie, but after watching it for just 2 minutes I have changed my mind. This is what a good action should …

“The ugly truth” movie

War of male-male amusing. Yes, you can briefly describe the new film makers cult comedy “Legally Blonde.” The ugly truth is another charming, banal story of love that every woman dreams of. On the other hand, this hilarious comedy is not as ephemeral as the others. It can not …

The Recruit (2003)

17 Again movie

The choice of actor Zack Efron to do the movie ‘17 Again’ really caught me by surprise. After finish working on the last movie of ‘High School Musical’, Efron declared that he wanted to work on movies with far more challenging roles. In all honestly, I found that there …

Do Not Disturb movie

Doris Day stars with Rod Taylor in Do Not Disturb. It’s not a big favorite of mine, and it’s not as fun or entertaining as her movies with Rock Hudson and James Garner were. While Taylor’s other outing with Day, The Glass Bottom Boat, was a winner …

P.S. I love You

When I picked up the movie P.S. I Love You, I expected it to be a tear jerker. What I found was, not only did it not move us to tears, we had a hard time keeping our eyes open.
