Here is the story of a man who is at the top, falls and then rises to the top again. This is a great movie.
I love this story. When I initially saw it in the dollar discount movie theatre, I wasn’t sure what I …

Once again, I’m back to watching Audrey Hepburn movies. I was anticipating War and Peace to replicate the same picture of the actress as the other regal-themed, A Roman Holiday, yet the movie wasn’t focused primarily on her character and I ended enjoying the whole film instead. …

Matchstick Men is a film that cons you right until the end. A con man getting conned at his own game - while this story has been told in many different versions, the intrique and suspense is no less in this film than any other. It took me …

While I thought the first Cheaper by the Dozen movie was lame, I did not think that a sequel to it could possibly be just plain silly and a waste of money that could have been put to proper use elsewhere. This time the movie was not just lame, …

The movie Titanic was very popular in those days. Wow this movie is really great and excellent. I don’t think that there will be any one will ever make any other movie like this. All the scenes in this movie were looking so real and the …

The Real Blair Witch is a television documentary that has little to do with the 1999 movie —˜The Blair Witch Project’ other than it involves some film footage that is debatable as to whether it is real or not. In 2002 a group of high school friends in …

If you love movies inspired by true events and documentaries and if you love action and is the outdoorsy type, you’ll surely love this movie. It’s based on real facts and it’s even much talked-about in the press conferences and interviews before it was actually showed because of it’s …

Ever since Harry Potter books first touched bookstores, people across the world have been falling in love with the magical world that the creator of the book, J.K Rowling has created. Once these novels started hitting the big screen, it was almost impossible to escape the mass madness of …

What was the essence of ‘The Fountain’, the film work of Darren Aronofsky (requiem for a Dream) is this? Search will be eternal life or melodrama about true love? I think, after witnessing film, is a combination of both and is not too bad.
Stories run parallel between Tomas (Hugh …

For Richard, the stud (Ryan Gosling), boredom appears to be the major …

This is a surprisingly good sequel. What made it good was how it diverged from the original. The main danger in Open Water was the ever present threat of shark attack. In Open Water 2, the writer and director cleverly play on the expectation …

The fifth episode of the first season of Stargate SG-1 was called “The First Commandment”. Frankly, it’s not a big favorite of mine, though it has some fun moments to it.
Basically, the episode is about an SG team leader gone bad. He starts believing he’s a god. …

Transformers 2 is one of the best movies I’ve ever watched. The movie matches the intensity of the first Transformers movie but brings the action up a notch. Here is my opinion on the movie.
Plot: 9/10, the plot of the story is well formed and easy to understand. The …

I had seen the trailer for the movie “The Brothers Grimsby” previously but wrote it off and forgot about it because I didn’t think that it would be great at all. However, after seeing the audience’s reaction to a clip of the movie on the Jimmy Kimmel Show, I became …

Quantum of Solace is the 22 Bond movie series and this time it’s played by Daniel Graig. The movie is full of action, fights, drama, thrill, and suspense. You will love the action part though. The Daniel here is not like the previous James Bond. He’s different and somewhat …

I was letting our daughter watch some Christmas movies I came across on Netflix and one of them turned out to be better than expected; Leapfrog: A Tad of Christmas Cheer.
Basically, this movie focused on the Leapfrog frogs and the fact Tad had to cope with his family expecting …

I recently rented the movie Failure to Launch with Matthew McConaughey and Sarah Jessica Parker. I originally rented the movie purely because Matthew McConaughey is quite attractive, but it ended up being a great laugh. The concept is that Matthews character is 35 and he still lives at …

I wouldn’t recommend this movie to anyone. It started out nicely but it got a little weird toward the middle and even weirder toward the end. I didn’t like it at all. The story line was ok, but the acting and every thing else could have been a lot …

One of the most interesting movies that I watched maybe about two months ago was a French movie called “A Prophet”. Like many of the movies I watched vey recently, I read about it in a popular movie blog before I decided to try it out, because it got …

One of those things that made this movie enjoyable was that you watch a man who finds its inner equilibrium. The irony is that he does not know how. At one point, Stone says, “Told you, I could not Explain It”, speaking of the total change he experienced. Indeed, …

This movie is kitty litter. The plot is stupid and outrageous, and the only thing you get out of this film is a movie where you laugh at the stupid people who wasted their lives in the filming of this movie. This movie has probably only gotten views by …

I have seen this movie last April,2008. I knew that it was a horror movie but I never thought that it would be such a shocker.
There was a newly wed couple traveling by car going to Japan, then the guy who was driving hit a woman …

I am a huge fan of all of the Ocean’s movies, Ocean’s eleven probably being my favorite of the three so far. What I love about this movie is that the makers never forget that this movie if made up of STARS and every single characters gets to …

We finally got around to watching the new GI Joe movie last night and I wasn’t really sure what to expect. The previews looked interesting but the movie looked like it would have way too much going on at once and would be confusing.
It turned out to be a …

How many James Bond movies are there now? Like five hundred, six hundred, seven thousand and seventy two? I know there are a whole lot, and probably a whole lot more to come. I admit, I haven’t seen very many James Bond movies. Some of the ones I have …

This is a typical high-school movie in which the gossip mill spreads like wildfire, and one clean-cut high school girl’s reputation gets ruined by an accidental lie. The movie features Emma Stone as Olive, who was forced to tell a lie to her very petulant best friend, and when …

I was really excited to see this movie because I love Liam Neeson and I thought he did an amazing job in the first movie. I was also excited to see it because the first Taken was a really great movie, one of the best that I had seen …

When the movie Zoom came out, it had two strikes against it in my opinion. First, it was about a bunch of kids with super powers; something that has been done way too many times in my opinion. Secondly, it starred Tim Allen. I like his stand up comedy. …

A movie that combines love, growth, realization of the importance of life and a large dose of comedy from a dynamic cast including Bette Midler, is not a movie I would want to pass up. Nor would I think anyone else would either. The 1997 film “That Old Feeling” …

Oscar Wilde’s short story The Picture of Dorian Gray has been adapted into a movie a number of times. The most recent adaptation of the short story was made in 2007. It was produced by Third Rock Films and directed by Duncan Roy. It starred David …

Many years ago my son and I went to see Jurassic Park in the movie theaters. We were so impressed by the movie that we went back the following week to see it again. Then we purchased it to keep in our collection.
This movie is a …

I have seen several movies based on this classic by Charlotte Bronte, and this 1983 version starring Zelah Clarke as Jane and Timothy Dalton as Mr. Rochester is, in my opinion, by far the best. The plot is very true to the book, and the two leading actors were …

I rented 500 days of summer knowing nothing about it except that it starred Joseph Gordon Levitt who is best known for playing the Alien, Tommy on the sitcom “Third Rock From the Sun,” and Zooey Deschanel. I have to say that I enjoyed this movie, but found …

Amanda Seyfried had been recently into wholesome love-story romantic movies which involves comedy and romance, so when I saw the trailer for this I was waiting for the film to be shown already. When I watched this movie, I felt as if I was also in the movie because …

I don’t know what it is lately, but it seems, whenever I rent a “comedy” it turns out to be a good movie but it is horribly mis-classified.
That’s the case with the movie Crazy in Alabama; which, like many other movies is billed as a funny movie. But, in …

“Georgia Rule” is the film where we get to see the actress, Lindsey Lohan interpret the role of a bad girl with the name of Rachel Wilcox. With the reputation that Lohan has gained lately I don’t think she had a particular difficulty to fit in her role.
“Georgia Rule” deals …

I am completely and wholeheartedly in love with this film. And that’s because this movie is all about satire and parody. But what is even more enticing is the the subject matter. Politically incorrect in its delivery, this movie is really a tongue-in-cheek “guide” for …

It wouldn’t sound too strange to say that The Wolf of Wall Street is in fact an adaptation of the classic 70s song Sex and Drugs and Rock and Roll, perhaps without the —˜Rock and Roll’. Scorsese’s latest 3 hour film is an indulgent look at the life of Jordan …

The story about a drug dealer moving product through Mexico may not be a new one but writers Bob Fisher, Steve Farber, Sean Anders and John Morris have found a new, exciting and hilarious way to tell it.

If I look back at all the Bollywood films I have seen till date, Koi Mil Gaya.. released in 2003 is the BEST of all of them. What worked for this E.T.-inspired flick were - it being one of the first sci-fi movies of Bollywood, Hrithik Roshan’s abnormal character …

Furious 7, starring Vin Diesel, Paul Walker and Dwayne Johnson is a movie that had high expectations before its release, primarily due to Paul Walker’s death, half-way through the filming of the movie. In my opinion, the movies in the Fast & Furious series have been disappointing but Furious 7 …

In a nutshell the film “August Rush” is about fate and dreams. What is fantastic about this great movie is that the young actor, Freddie Highmore acting abilities are simply wonderful. Before “August Rush”, Highmore also appeared in “Charlie and the Chocolate Factory” and “Finding Neverland”.
The story of “August …

I liked “The Girl Next Door” the first time I watched it, but I really enjoyed it more the second time around. I liked it so much, I actually bought it on DVD! I got a good deal, so even though I don’t feel the need to …
