If you’re looking for a movie to remind you about the worst parts of the 1980s, then you’ll want to rent the science fiction movie Solarbabies.
While the concept behind the movie is a good one, it’s set in the future and water is scarce; something that creates a world …

While my daughter loved the movie Alvin & the Chipmunks meet Frankenstein, I don’t think she was a huge fan of the film Alvin & the Chipmunks meet the Wolfman..
Of course, part of the problem could have been the fact the rented DVD was a bit scratched up and …

This movie was overall alright. I enjoyed watching some parts of the movie. Some parts not so much. In some parts it was boring or wasn’t really funny. You could also tell that it was a low budget film. There were a couple of parts that were funny. It’s …

The best thing this movie had going for it was the cast. Top rated actors putting on exceptionally fine performances kept this movie from being confused with its contemporary counterpart. The Prestige. Edward Norton always does well, no matter what role he plays. He is what I call an …

I enjoyed “Taken” well enough. It wasn’t the most complex piece of cinema, but if you wanted to see Liam Neeson beat up bad guys, it delivered.
It seemed like one of those movies that didn’t really need a sequel. Not everything needs to be turned into a …

Batman, directed by Tim Burton is rated PG-13 bythe Motion Picture Association of America and stars Michael Keaton as Batman/Bruce Wayne, Jack Nicholson as The Joker/Jack Napier and Kim Basinger as Vicki Vale.
This remake of the immortal pages of the comic book dark hero known as Batman, makes it …

Nine times out of ten a moving staring Nicholas Cage is a big hit in our household. I have always enjoyed his movies so when my husband decided to rent the 2005 movie Lord of War I sat down expecting to enjoy the movie. Told as a narrative from …

Darkman is one of those classic movies that you will want to buy anytime a new version comes out. Me, I love Darkman and I am one of those who have to own every version of Darkman. Since I love Darkman and some people would call me an idiot …

Tomb of the Werewolf (2003)
A thorough, total and utter travesty and the only film I have ever seen that was both excruciating to watch and emtionally painful as well.
I’ve been reviewing several of Paul Naschy’s films on here lately. Naschy was Spain’s reigning king of horror in the late …

Never Been Kissed, with Drew Barrymore, is, in a word, cute. The premise (shy girl gets to go back to high school and try again as part of a newspaper assignment) is fun and resonates with the part of me that knows a lot more than I did when …

I really thought Grosse Point Blank was a great movie. The reason I loved this movie was because it was so funny! I mean Martin Blank is a crazy hitman who kills for money. And now he might have to doa job in Grosse Point where he is from. So …

When I first saw the trailer for this movie, I thought it was a star-studded cast! There were several famous actors and actresses in this movie, of all ages, starting from Julia Roberts, Jessica Alba, Jessica Biel, Kathy Bates, Patrick Dempsey, Emma Roberts, Taylor Swift, Taylor Lautner, Jamie Foxx, …

Maybe I’ll Come Home in the Spring from 1971 is another one of those movies that aired in prime time once and then became both a late afternoon and then a late night movie, popping up on the air quite often. It’s been several years since I’ve seen …

Avatar 3D is in my opinion one of the best science-fiction movies ever made. With stunning graphical detail, excellent actors and a well-thought-out plot, Avatar 3D should definitely win its share of awards and collect millions at the box office.
The “avatars” in the movie, blue creatures with …

I recently watched The Family Stone on DVD with my fiance. I was hoping it would be slightly funny and pleasant to watch, and was pleasantly surprised at how good it was.
With an all-star cast including Sarah Jessica Parker, Luke Wilson, Claire Danes, and Diann Keaton, this movie …

The first thing I thought when I saw this movie advertising was that the movie looked like it was going to be unusual, but not necessarily funny. When I actually got to watch it though, I realised how right I was, as I never laughed one time throughout the …

I think Carrie was a pretty scary and cool movie. I think it’s cool because I like physic energy and powers. I am really into that kind of stuff. And the fact that Carrie was a physic energy master was what really got me into this movie. I think that …

My favorite Walt Disney produced movie to date, has to be The Incredibles. How anyone could not find sheer enjoyment and entertainment while watching this unique and colorful flick, I would not know. It is such a cool idea for a movie if you ask me! …

My husband and I finally watched “The Bourne Legacy” last night. I was so excited to watch this movie, as I am huge fan of the other “Bourne” movies. I am also a fan of Jeremy Renner and Edward Norton, so I had high hopes as we sat …

Many film fans likely know Lucio Fulci as a director of some of Italy’s goriest horror movies. Oddly enough, he started out directing comedies before hitting it big as a horror director, breaking out with 1979’s Zombie. On a few occasions, Fulci made films in other genres …

Step Brothers is one of my favorite movies of all time and it is jam packed full of funny one liners. It is about two 40 year old men who still live at home with their parents and they are just like big children. Will Farrel’s character, Brennan Huff’s …

A movie that children and adults alike will enjoy is Gremlins. Gremlins are these little creatures that are fierce and scary and evolve, magically, from Mogwai. You see, the Mogwai are fine and lovable and rather like little teddy bears, unless they have water. Once the water gets on …

My wife is out of town for a few days so I’m trying to pass the time at night by watching some older movies on our Netflix player.
Last night, I came across one called the Pig Keeper’s Daughter. I didn’t know what it was when I watched it. I …

Remember the movie Chocolat? I would have to say that this was one of my most favorite movies during the early millenium period. Starring Juliette Binoche (nice name), Alfred Molina, Judi Dench and other cast, this movie is a success. The storyline goes roughly around the main …

The rich Madame Bonfamille owns a family of cats: the beautiful all-white mother-cat Duchess and three adorable kittens: Berlioz (gray), Marie (white, like mommy), and Toulouse (orange). The kittens are brought up like aristocracy, they are taught manners, music, and painting. Edgar, Madame’s butler, is taking good care …

There is a “circuit” of cinemas all over Trinidad which go by the name of Globe and one of my favourite Globe Cinema is located in Chaguanas, the little city of Trinidad.
There are many things I like about this cinema. It is very easy to access by foot and …

From 1946, Notorious is a classic movie that has been respected and admired since it was made. It’s a movie of intrigue right from the start. It keeps you on your toes, uncertain of motivations and realities.
Filmed in black and white, Notorious stars Cary Grant as T.R. …

I watched this the other day and it was awesome. Audrey Tautou’s performance is really thumbs-up and even though this movie is a long-ago one, I find it super awesome, get what I mean. If you don’t believe, watch it and you will understand what I am trying …

Dear John is a beautiful and moving love story based on the novel by Nicholas Sparks. It captures the new love between Savannah (Amanda Seyfried) and John (Tatum Channing) with playful tenderness as well as searing emotional intensity associated with first love. Watching their first kiss in the rain …

There is a brilliant spot in Dead Like Me: Send in the Clown. It’s actually a parody of the TV drama, Hill Street Blues. I recognized what was happening almost immediately. It surrounded Roxy (Jasmine Guy), who is a meter maid on the show. She …

Most often than not, small films like this one gets buried in a year full of blockbusters. Which is probably the reason why I was not able to watch this the year it was released. Admittedly, 3 years ago, I was not too much of a fan of smaller movies. …

Blood Sport is a classic fighting movie. It’s a great 80s movie with a lots of heart in it. I think Jean Claude Van Damme did a great job of acting in the movie. His fighting style and moves were very good. He has a lot of heart and energy …

A mixture of romance, documentary and comedy about a young George Lucas finding his inspiration to the Star Wars films. As the Star Wars fan I am, it was very interesting to see how George might have been inspired by different characters in his own life and putting them …

If you ever want to rent a movie to learn more about Tornadoes, the film Twister is the one you should avoid.
Living in an area that averages a dozen tornadoes each year, I can tell you that, 1. Tornadoes do not suddenly change course to chase after you, 2. …

Matt Damon stars as a killer…hmmm, where has this ever been done before. While this film could have been a great film, it fails to deliver the goods. I was left wanting no more after it was all said and done with. The characters were robotic and no life …

“Juno” is a 2007 film directed by Jason Reitman, and starring Ellen Page, Michael Cera, Jennifer Garner, and Jason Bateman. This is a really good movie about a mouthy but obviously smart teenager who becomes pregnant and has to navigate through all the possible courses of action she …

Monster is about Aileen Wuornos, a female serial killer. Monster looks behind the scenes and tells you the real story of Aileen. I never thought that Aileen was justified in murdering men in cold blood, but I can say that I feel Aileen was a victim of men all …

When they came out with a 3rd Rush Hour movie, my first thought was “this will have a few laughs but will fail to live up to the first two movies.” After watching the movie this past weekend, I can now say I was wrong. This movie might actually …

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 …

I recommend everyone to watch this, Young At Heart. This is something that I would recommend any senior citizen to watch. As we grow old, we become more sensitive and prone to feelings that we might not succumb to should we are young.
This movie is about a group …

I watched this before, titled Rec and it was during 2007, I think. Pretty darn scary, if you ask me. Remember The Blair Witch Project..? Well, it is something like it, but different in a way.
You will get to see a recording or some sort …

Edward ScissorHands is one of my all time favorite movies. The music and scenery is must majestic. I think this is one of Johnny Depp’s best roles. He plays the part of Edward. Edward was created by his father who was an old inventor. But he never got to …

I love this movie! Not only does it feature my favorite gorgeous actresses Anne Hathaway and Kate Hudson, but the story is really unique and cute and every girl can just relate to this one! However I think guys wouldn’t really enjoy watching this as it’s a total 100% …

I pretty much like this particularly episode of Dead Like Me. It’s called In Escrow and deals with the Lass home, which has been on the market. Linda, the realtor, calls and says someone wants to buy the house, so now they go into escrow.
Teryl Rothery plays …

Captivity is an odd movie that I picked up in the video store because of the After Dark advertising on the front of the box. I assumed that the movie was part of the Horror Fest series, but it was actually an independent movie released by the same company. …

In a somehow original yet cliche kind of way, The Avengers is one of the best movies of the year and easily the most entertaining. However this action thriller does not come out perfectly, a lot of small flaws make this only a good action movie and not a …

I really enjoy watching comedy movies. One day as I was surfing channels I was able to see the movie Fired Up in Star Movies.
Fired Up is about two guys who are football jocks who want to go and join the cheerleading camp just to be able to check …
