The Myth movie
This is one of my favorite Jackie Chan’s movie and in Chinese. This movie consisted of combination of ancient and modern China. The story is about Jacko (Jackie Chan) as an archeologist who get confused with his inner memories. He kept dreaming that he used to be a warrior …
Pretty Woman
My all time favourite film is Pretty Woman and I love to watch it over and over again. It was released back in 1990 and it is still as good today in my opinion as it was when it was first released. The film was directed by Garry …
Columbo: Murder with Too Many Notes movie
In Columbo: Murder with Too Many Notes, Billy Connolly guest stars as musical composer Findlay Crawford with Chad Willett playing his young ‘ghost’ composer, Gabriel McEnery. Gabriel is tired of not getting his due after five years of ‘ghosting’ the musical scores. When he threatens to let …
Wall-E
When I saw all the ads to Wall-E, I thought that it was going to be a boring movie with a lot of silence, but I was wrong. It was one of the best animations that Disney has made yet, both graphically as well as in the story line …
Alvin & the Chipmunks Meet Frankenstein
Well, I wasn’t sure if my daughter would like an Alvin & the Chipmunks cartoon; let along one that would have a scary monster like Frankenstein’s Monster. But, she obviously is a huge fan of the movie Alvin & the Chipmunks Meet Frankenstein because she’s watched the DVD probably …
Hot Shots Part Deux
It’s been a while since I’ve seen the sequel to the movie Hot Shots; Hot Shots Part Deux. And I have to admit, after seeing it again this morning, it’s as good as I remember it being.
While the first Hot Shots movie made fun of the film Top Gun, …
Enough starring Jennifer Lopez
“Enough” (2002) was one of the best movies I have seen in a long time. It had shades of Sleeping With the Enemy and Double Jeopardy, but stood out among the crowd. Jennifer Lopez stars as Slim, a woman who suffers physical abuse at the hands of …

Fullmetal Alchemist: Episode 21 begins with Roy reprimanding Riza Hawkeye for giving up on living after she believed that Roy Mustang was dead. Ed and Al figuring out how to lure out the Homunculi. Jean Havoc is in the hospital and we found out what’s going to happen to …
The Iron Lady movie
I make it a point to watch as many of the Oscar contenders as possible before the awards are handed out in February, so that my enjoyment of the ceremony itself can be magnified by my rooting for this or that actor, director or writer. This year I wasn’t …
Casino Royale (2006)
Casino Royale (2006) is a drama directed by Martin Campbell and is rated PG-13 for intense sequences of violent action, a scene of torture, sexual content and nudity.
Casino Royale is a revamping of the James Bond franshise. It begins in Madagarcar where Bond (Daniel Craig) is after a …
Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei: Season One
I first watched this series with my friends in a theater, and I laughed so hard that the next day my voice was hoarse. I couldn’t talk regularly for three days after that!
The actual animation is amazing. They use different techniques from various periods in film history, including sound …
Mr Arkadin movie
What could have been a major masterpiece by Orson Welles was severely cut down by the production company as they thought it was “too boring” and to mr Welles’ devastation he found yet another of his works butchered and lost forever. It was the exactly same thing with The …
Movie: “Night at the Museum” (2006)
I have to say this is one of my all-time favorite Ben Stiller movies. I’m not really a Stiller fan; the only movie he’s really “acted” in was the hilarious Zoolander; otherwise, he always plays the same character: neurotic, a little nerdy, uncommitted, but with a good soul. He …
One for the Money (movie)
A couple years ago before one of my relatives died, she recommended that I read the Janet Evanovich novel “One for the Money” as she claimed that I would enjoy it. I was hesitant at first since at the time I was more of a horror fan and we …
Green Room (2016 horror film)
After watching The Witch last month, my anticipation in watching horror films grew more and more, not because I thought The Witch was a good film but because I realized, not all horrors are scary anyway. The Witch was very lackluster in providing the thrills, “relying on just the visuals …
Into The Blue Movie
This is one of my favorite movies, it features Jessica Alba and Paul Walker as a poor couple who gets on a job finding treasure, but there are a lot of syndicates who wants the treasure too and they’re now faced with dangers above and underneath the sea. This …
Love Actually movie
Love Actually is a great Christmas movie, and I watch it every year. The movie has a huge cast and features many big names, like Hugh Grant, as the British Prime Minister, Colin Firth, as a writer trying to deal with heartache of finding his wife in bed with …
Danika (R, 2006)
Marisa Tomei is one of those actresses who pops up in an unexpected film and steals the show. She did so in “Danika”—”a film about a woman who has a tight hold on her children, and is a bit overprotective. This is the way the film is …
Elf (2003)
A baby named Buddy crawls into Santa’s sack of toys one Christmas when he was small and was accidentally taken to the North Pole. Santa allows the child to remain at the North Pole and he is grown by Papa Elf to become an Elf himself. As time past, …
A League of their Own movie
I am reviewing the movie, A League of the their Own, which was released in 1997. Tom Hanks, Geena Davis, and Madonna are just a few big stars that acted in this incredible movie about the first ever woman’s baseball team. Tom Hanks plays Jimmy Dugan, who in …
Brothers In Arms Movies
Ok, i bought this movie because of the front cover. You know the sayng “don’t judge a book by it’s cover”? well it also applies to dvd covers.
This movie is far beyond bad, really it was a real torture to watch, in fact 30 minutes into it i had …
Phantom of the Opera movie
I won’t be giving much plot info in this review, because that is easily accessible on Wikipedia or something. I liked this movie. That’s it, just liked. The beginning was pretty bland, and it bored me to sleep. As it went on, it got a little …
I Am Legend (R, 2007) movie
I have finally gotten around to seeing “I Am Legend”. I wish that I hadn’t seen the movie… Or better yet, I wish that I had read the novel, or seen 1971’s “Omega Man” first. At any rate, I am not really a huge Will …
Bleak House (2005)
At first, I was not sure whether I liked the new Bleak House (released in 2005) better than the old version I have in my collection of classics (the 1985 Masterpiece Theatre production). I was so used to the old version that it took me some time to warm …
Benhur
I do really appreciate the movie “Benhur.” For me it is the most beautiful movie I have ever seen. The leading actor Charleton Hestone played his role excellently as well as other participants in the movie. It is the best religious film for men. I feel closer …
Inkheart movie
When I first saw the movie “Inkheart” advertising to be released in theatres I somehow assumed that it was supposed to be a fantasy film which starred the actor Brendan Fraiser. Therefore at one point I was even planning on saving some money to watch it while it was …
Capote
I had heard this was such a great movie, so I borrowed it from my local library. I had intended to read the book InCold Blood by Truman Capote, I went as far as to buy a copy at a yard sale but I did not get around to …
Pirates of the Caribbean movie
Pirates of the Caribbean - Curse of the Black Pearl VHS
This wonderful adventure film is one of my all-time favorites because of its imagery, well-chosen cast, and exciting, fast-paced storyline. If you like stories of the pirate era or any type of high energy adventure, it just might become …
Pay It Forward
Pay It Forward is a nice movie in the genre of drama. The movie stars Haley Joel Osment, Helen Hunt and Kevin Spacey. Haley Joel Osment, the kid who impressed everyone with his powerful performance in The Sixth Sense plays the pivotal role in this movie and he doesn’t …
Harvey Birdman Volume 1 DVD
Harvey Birdman certainly is a breath of fresh air. A breath of fresh old air. Following in the footsteps of the immensely popular Space Ghost: Coast to Coast, Harvey Birdman, Attorney at Law renews the idea of taking old Hanna Barbera characters and putting them into a …
Ladyhawke (1985 Film)
The 1985 film “Ladyhawke” was not only a strong dose of fantasy that touches everyone’s inner child and magical yearning for something powerful that can’t possibly be real, as well as beautiful love story that was heartwarming to watch. Mathew Broderick, a very young Mathew Broderick, as well as …
The Wedding Singer
The Wedding Singer marks the appearance of Adam Sandler being an extremely funny man. He rocks in this movie and his side-kick, Drew Barrymore rocks too. The storyline is about Adam being a wedding singer and this romantic comedy is awesome.
Adam plays the character of Robbie, …
Veggie Tales: Lessons from a Sock Drawer
I’ve mentioned in other reviews that I like to try to find movies my daughter will enjoy. And, one of my biggest criteria when deciding whether to give it a good review or not is whether or not it will keep her entertained so I and my wife might …
Cry-Baby movie
Last week I watched a movie called Cry-Baby with my girlfriend as she’s found a fascination with Johnny Depp and this is I believe his first major role in a movie. To be very honest, my expectations for this movie were extremely low and I honestly didn’t expect …
Crash (2004)
“Crash” (2004) is movie about a series of car crashes and the events that lead up to the crash. The movie last 115 and, frankly could be cut without serious harm. “Crash” is a Bull’s Eye Entertainment production in English and filmed in color on sets and locations throughout Los …
Monsters University (animated movie)
Even though I tend to like animated movies I had put off watching “Monsters University” for a very long time. This was because I thought that I might find it to be too immature for my tastes since I had read quite a few bad reviews on it. Nevertheless, I …
300
First off, let me start off by saying that I am not a huge fan when movies are done with nearly all CGI. I like when it is used properly and peppered into the movie like a Lord of the Rings or Narnia has done in the past. …
The Shame movie
Perhaps one of Ingmar Bergman’s most underrated film from the late 1960s, as usual by that time with Liv Ullman and Max von Sydow in the leading roles. It’s very uncharacteristic for Bergman as it deals with the atrocities of war, and this loving couple who are slowly driven …
The Pink Panther (2006)
I understand this is just a remake of a movie that was originally produced in 1963 that starred Peter Sellers as the idiotic but kind hearted Inspector Clouseau.
As I see it, this is another one histerically funny movie that has the character combination of Mr. Bean and Johny English …
The Fugitive thriller
The Fugitive is one of the best thrillers films I’ve seen. Never have I sat through the whole film without taking bathroom breaks or even a quick trip to the fridge. Here, Harrison Ford played Dr. Richard Kimble, a prominent doctor convicted of murdering his wife. He is co-starred …
The wind will carry us movie
The wind will carry us is a film by Abbas Kiarostami, who is known for films like Close-Up and maybe most of all - one of my own personal favorites - Taste of cherry. His style is very slow, but in his case it’s always a positive thing, because …
The Borrowers movie
The Borrowers was a 1973 presentation from the Hallmark Hall of Fame, but the first time I saw it was just this week. Though the movie has a wonderful cast, it just wasn’t really my style for some reason.
I realize that the special effects, so to speak, were …
Wanted: A Movie
What have you been doing lately? This is the last line from the movie “Wanted” starring Morgan Freeman, Angelina Jolie and James Mc Avoy.
James Mc Avoy plays the role of Wesley Gibson, an Account Manager in some company. He thinks of himself as a loser who is struggling to …

Movie Mad Money
I can watch DVD movies back to back each time and one of the latest in my list would be Mad Money. Diane Keaton, the awesomely Queen Latifah and also Katie Holmes, wife of Tom Cruise star in this very good comedy movie.
These 3 women are awesome ladies …
Lord of the G Strings Femaleship of the String, DVD Softcore Movie
Seduction Cinema made a ton of softcore movies. Maybe they made too many of them. One of the production company’s most popular films is Lord of the G-Strings, a softcore take on the Lord of the Rings trilogy. All of Seduction Cinema’s top players were in this movie in …
Movie The Hudsucker Proxy
The Hudsucker Proxy with Tim Robbins and Paul Newman.
This bizarre film takes place in New York City in the year 1958. In the opening segment we are in a board room filled with corporate fat cats. As they listen to the annual report, …
The Queens of Comedy (stand-up comedy)
For a stand-up comedy genre; and if you want something totally hilarious just for fun’s purpose, do rent The Queens of Comedy. Highly rated by most and I was trying to find out what the fuss is all about with this and truly arguably, I think this works a …
10,000 BC
We went to Washington DC last night to see a sneak preview of the new movie coming out called 10,000 B.C. It was nothing like what I thought it would be. The concept of the movie was that there was this village of hunters living in the mountains, …
Vantage Point
I heard mixed opinion about “Vantage Point” so I decided that I really had to watch it to form my own opinion. “Vantage Point” is an interesting complex movie and also very original in shooting. In my opinion, the studios took a great risk in producing such an …
