Rest Stop: Don’t Look Back (NR, 2008)

I only rented this movie because I thought that the first one was fairly decent. Looking back, I realize that not only was the first one not as good as I’d imagined, there NEVER should have been a sequel. The whole concept behind this film …

Due Date: Movie

Due Date is a comedy film that I really enjoyed, despite going into it with a slight bit of pessimism due to previous reviews I’d heard.
It was much better than I expected, and had a number of laugh out loud moments that make me want to watch it again …

TRAITOR, The Movie Jeffrey Nachmanoff

An extraordinary film, which is supported by the story and that is not normal. Where we see from the two sides. Contrasting with the Kingdom of the most talked about police searching for evidence. But this movie, we see from the two sides are different. Not many movie scenes …

Focus - Romantic Comedy Movie (2015)

‘Focus’ is a romantic comedy with lots of twists and turns that make the movie enjoyable to watch. Starring Will Smith and Margot Robbie, this movie at times plays out like an action film or thriller and definitely had my attention throughout. The screenplay could’ve been executed a little better …

Pineapple Express is a great movie. It is extremely funny. I could not stop laughing. I have watched the movie more than 20 times and every time it is just as funny as the first.

Movie The Beast and the Magic Sword (1984)

After the box office flop of The Craving, Paul Naschy never thought he’d ever play the werewolf role he made famous ever again. Well, never say never because he was tapped by a Japanese company to make this strange “Werewolf runs amok in fuedal Japan” mini epic.
If the description …

Hello, Dolly!

When Hello, Dolly! was brought to the big screen in 1969 after being a successful musical on Broadway, Hollywood cast Barbra Streisand in the role of Dolly Levi. It wasn’t a role she wanted. After all, she was too young to play the matronly Levi. On …

Johnny Guitar movie

This anti-western by inventive Hollywood filmmaker Nicholas Ray, tells the story of a western hero called Johnny “Guitar” Logan, who much rather plays music instead of shooting down people with guns. The storyline and narrative is daring and unusual for the time. Johnny Guitar was made in the 1950s …

Cadillac Records

This movie was actually pretty good. Most of the main characters managed to capture the essence of the lives they were supposed to play, but some did not. Mos Def played Chuck Berry and did an outstanding job portraying one of the pioneers of what we now know as …

The Thomas Crown Affair (1999 version)

I believe that Pierce Bronsnan is mostly known for his interpreation in the James Bond movies, however I think that “The Thomas Crown Affair” is a great movie project for this actor. I believe that Brosnan interpreation of the role of Thomas Crown with a good mix of charm, …

Transformers: The Michael Bay Movie

When there were rumors about this movie coming out, I was pretty sketpical on how well it could be done. Yeah special effects have come a long way in the past few years and we have computer graphics that make the most outlandish things appear real, but could the …

Inside Out (R, 2005) movie

I am not a huge fan of Eriq LaSalle’s. But when I saw that he took a directorial turn in “Crazy as Hell”, I realized that he had some sort of depth. I mention this film because in it Eriq also stars as a crazy, and mysterious …

I am reviewing the Disney film, Sword in the Stone. Young Arthur works in a place where he is not welcome, nor wanted. He is treated like dirt, and is completely misunderstood. He wants to be a squire more than anything, but he’s got a lot of …

Vice, Movie

Is Pseudoscience Fiction a genre? I’m not entirely sure what kind of film Vice was trying to be, but apparently it didn’t try very hard. This Westworld inspired thriller presents us with some fairly heavyweight themes and then fails to make any kind of attempt at tackling them.

A rather weak …

Days of being wild movie

The chinese director Wong Kar-Wai is my absolute favorite to appear during the last 20 years. Days of being wild is only his second film ever, made in the early 1990s, but already here he showed his amazing talent with an entirely unique way of putting images together and …

The Hangover 2 (Movie)

The Hangover 2 is the sequel to the original Hangover and released in the summer of 2011. What I will say right away is that the original Hangover and this release are incredibly similar in many ways and the second film follows many of the patterns of the first …

Fargo

I’ve always said there are many under-rated actors in Hollywood, and Fargo has two of them. William H. Macy and Steve Buscemi have helped many movies succeed with their performances, without the accolades of their peers. This movie is no exception. Both actors made this movie successful.
Macy is a …

I love it, and its as entertaining now as it was when it was made in 1985 Michael J Fox and Christopher Lloyd excel in this film which sends them back to the past where they get stuck and need to find a way, well - back to …

Saw IV (Unrated, 2007) movie
