Movies Reviews
Twister
Helen Hunt is just a good actress and I wonder whether she has ever won an acting award or not. Her appearance was very good, especially in the movie, Twister, which I watched years back. My local TV channel loves to showcase long-ago movies which had been blockbuster …
10,000 BC
I purchase this movie together with some more as a time killing activity while my husband is on a two week vacation. I thought at first that it was just an ordinary and boring historical type of movies but as I watched the movie, I know it is more …
HOP movie
I’ll be honest. The only reason I went to this movie is to hear one of the songs in the credits by my favourite artist. I went into this movie kind of just wanting it to be the end soon because I hated animated movies or anything like it. …
Death Sentence (2007) Movie
Kevin Bacon stars in this movie with the interesting plot and weary execution. The film begins with a group of people sharing happy family moments. The audience gets to see how the boys grow up. And I suppose the montage seen through film and …
Evan Almighty
This is an amazingly respectful movie on a spiritual theme - respectful to God and faith. The title clearly hints on Bruce Almighty that had come out in 2003, but it is not a sequel; just a similar story. The similarity is made even closer with the same actor, …
The Shadow
The Shadow is a very good super hero movie. I never knew what The Shadow was. But when I finally saw this movie I must say that I loved it a lot. This movie is very good and I really do think that Alec Baldwin did a great job of …
Cape Fear
I think Robert De Niro did a great job in the movie Cape Fear. I really like Cape Fear because it’s a different type of horror. This movie is not about ghosts or monsters, but it is instead about a prison inmate named Max that wants revenge. He was sent …
Pink Panther 2
My family loved the first Pink Panther movie starring Steve Martin (I actually enjoyed the originals too) so we couldn’t wait to see the sequel last night. In fact, it was in our DVD player 5 minutes after I got home from work.
It was an OK movie but it …
Curious George movie
When I saw the cover for this movie it felt like it was a little boring since it has only a monkey holding a telescope. Nevertheless when my niece and I got nothing to do we did give it a try to watch it. At first it was a …
The 400 Blows: A Film by Francois Truffaut (1959)

Blade Trinity movie
Just when you think they could not do better than the original and the sequel…they came out with Trinity…BAD IDEA. It’s nice that they wanted to bring the first, the original vampire into the mix of things, but, they did a real terrible job with his portayal. Dracula (Drake) …
Drop Dead Fred, 1991 movie
Drop Dead Fred which came out in 1991, starring Pheobe Cates, and Rik Mayall, remains one of my favorite movies of all time. I strongly recommend that if you like comedies that you see this movie. The movie is about a woman, Lizzie, who’s husband is seeing another woman …

Supernatural
I love sci fi or horror movies. Supernatural is one of those movies. I was scared to watch them alone at first, then I found out that they don’t tell about ghosts or anything scary like that. They tell stories about demons and devils. Ghosts …
Julie & Julia film
While watching this film, I was thinking that someone really interested in cooking could probably enjoy it more than me, since the film it’s mostly about good food, cooking as a hobby, or cooking as a passion. It might make you want to cook, or try the recipes. However, …
Movie : Bangkok Dangerous (2008)
Quick word of advice… If you’re one of those people that have decided to dismiss Nicholas Cage and any films that he may star in I suggest moving on to different review as I really liked this movie and am a big supporter of Nicholas Cage in general.
Apparently …

Moonstruck (1987)
Moonstruck is a great romantic comedy starring Cher as an Italian American woman, named Loretta Castorini, who falls in love with her fiance’s brother, played by Nicolas Cage. I have never cared much for Cher’s music or singing voice, but I think she’s an excellent actress and I wish …

Bend it like Beckham (2002)

Released as El Retorno del Hombre-Lobo in Spain, Paul Naschy opted to remake his greatest success, The Werewolf’s Shadow, to recoup the cash that he lost on his previous non-werewolf films. It didn’t work out. The film was a major failure and it bankrupted Naschy’s company.
What a shame as …
Sahara movie
After the defeat in Tobruk in 1942, Joe Gunn leads his troops through the desert of Sahara to get away from Rommel’s army and reach his allied forces.

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.
