Open the Door Richard movie short
I have no idea how to even describe this 1945 movie short called Open the Door Richard. It’s a strange production that I just don’t understand. It features Dusty Fletcher and the infamous Richard, if only in spirit.
I just don’t know what to say, or should I …
The movie Shrek 2
I liked Shrek the original. I really liked how different it was as far as a animated film. I thought that Donkey was hilarious and I really loved Fiona. She was such a strong female character. So when I saw that there was going to be a sequel I …
Looney Tunes Back in Action
Normally, if there’s a movie that features cartoon characters talking to real actors, I’m not a huge fan.
Not that movies like Who Framed Roger Rabbit and Space Jam didn’t have their moments; they just were a bit too corny for my tastes.
Looney Tunes Back in Action still fits that …

50 first dates movie

Movie Monsters Inc
Pixar’s 2001 release, Monsters Inc., is probably my least favorite Pixar movie ever released. For some reason, I cannot forget that Billy Crystal and John Goodman are the voice actors in this movie. Its difficult to explain, but Tom Hanks becomes Woody, and Owen Wilson becomes Lightning …
Night of the Living Dead (1990 Remake)
Gore maestro Tom Savani takes over directorial duties in this remake of Romero’s classic zombie movie.
There’s no monumental changes with this new version. It’s shot in colour, the gores a bit more impressive (but surprisingly much more played down considering Savani’s involvement) but there’s some tinkering about with …
Erin Brockovich
The movie “Erin Brockovich” came out in 2000 and I rushed out and bought it the moment it became available on DVD. This movie was inspiring to me because she didn’t let anything hold her back. Julia Roberts portrayal of Erin Brockovich was astounding. I have …

Headless Horseman movie

Tropic Thunder (R, 2008) movie
I was a little surprised by how much I actually liked this film. I really thought that Robert Downey, Jr. in “black-face” would cause some issues for the director, producer, and actors. But it seems that perhaps people are seeing about this film what I …
Breakfast in Hollywood movie
Breakfast in Hollywood from 1946 has some very delightful moments in it. Apparently, this was a real radio show that was broadcast in Hollywood with host Tom Breneman, who appears as himself in this motion picture that uses his show as a catalyst for several small sub stories.
The …
DOA: Dead Or Alive Movie
I may be a girl, but that doesn’t mean that I can’t appreciate a woman who looks good. When I saw DOA: Dead Or Alive I just happened to get a little more than I intended to. A large portion of the movie is devoted to the women in …

Coyote Ugly
What is this movie about? I can answer that in two words: bar dancing. There is nothing else in it, really. No story to speak of, just a few events to get the main character to work at the bar - and then it is all about girls dancing …

Human Remains
Before Merchant and Gervais brought the mockumentary back to our screens with The Office, there was Human Remains. Although its legacy remains in the minds of those who fell in love with back in 2000, it certainly hasn’t earned the success it deserves. The show follows a simple premise: …
The Social Network: Movie
The Social Network was, for me, one of the best if not the best film of 2010 —“ and one of my all-time favourites.

‘The Night Listener’ is the umpteenth time from the movie Robin Williams is illicit nuances. Efforts in genres varying from the usual role he (comedy) sometimes successfully, but sometimes also appear with no convincing. For me, including The Night Listener, which is quite successful.
Gabriel Noone (Robin Williams) is …

Feast, 2006 Horror Film
This is one of those few horror movies that come out and are not only freaky and disgusting, but hilarious. I think it’s obvious that the director wanted it to be both. Basically you have a bar full of goofy misfits (I swear if you’ve ever been in …
The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 1 (science fiction movie)
I haven’t really been a fan of “The Hunger Games” movies for a very long while. As a matter of fact, while I don’t think they are terrible I’m one of those people who would describe it as being “a tad bit overrated”. However, it was curiosity more than anything …

Movie Willow (1988)
Since my daughter was very young, she and I have enjoyed watching many fantasy movies over the years. One of our favorites has always been Ron Howard’s “Willow.” The talented Val Kilmer is absolutely fantastic as Madmartigan, a great swordsman who has a tendency to only look out for …
Uncle Buck (1989) movie

Movie: “The Road to El Dorado” (2000)
From the beginning, I was impressed with Dreamworks and their beautifully animated feature films. “The Road to El Dorado” is no exception, with its lively musical score, all-start voice cast, and enchanting animation.

Suspicious River (R, 2000) movie
