The Invisible Man movie
This James Whale horror story, that came out between the Frankenstein movies, is my favorite of his work. Chilling story filled with suspense and remarkable effects and terribly good acting - especially from Claude Rains as the invisible man - makes this a landmark in early horror cinema. The …
FLCL
The anime series “FLCL,” short for “Fooly Cooly” or “Furi Kuri,” is an artistic amazement. The storyline is a little unclear, being a
three-way battle between main characters, but deliciously abstract and humorous. The plot’s hyperactive pace, and features that catagorize the series as anything from comedy, drama, romance, sci-fi …
Movie Firewall
I bought this movie a while back and I am glad I did. It was really good. It’s kind of long but it’s good. There is some action in the movie but the whole movie isn’t full of action. All of the actors do an amazing job in the …
Dreamscape
I hadn’t seen Dreamscape in a while so, when given the opportunity to watch it last night, I made every effort. And, I have to say, the movie is as good as I remember it.
The great thing about Dreamscape is, even today, it’s a plot that hasn’t been re-done …
Munich movie
I definitly had to watch this movie because, apart from being a Stefen Spielberg movie, it was filmed mostly in my native country, Malta. I was particulary impressed by the focus point of the story. This is not a movie about terrorism, but it is a movie about the …
No Reservations
I love it when Catherine Zeta-Jones acts. She is gracing maturely and is truly beautiful no matter what her age is.
In this movie story, she acted alongside Aaron Eckhart and this is a very beautiful story that I suppose would be very popular with loads of chefs …

DVD WONDERLAND
John C. Holmes was the single most famous adult film star in history. In the early 1980’s, long after his porn career had ended, he found himself faces murder charges in the deaths of several lowlifes on Wonderland Ave in Los Angeles. This is that story.
Val Kilmer plays …
LORO, movie (2018)
The beauty of individual things is undeniable only in our heads. Someone is sure that he ties his shoelaces beautifully or hangs stuff in the closet. The Italian Paolo Sorrentino is not sure of anything. He knows. He knows how to beautifully shoot a girl by the pool, shaving her …
The House of the Devil movie 2009
I rented The House of the Devil through Netflix. I chose it because I read reviews stating that the retro-80’s style of filming was extremely accurate. I am an 80’s kid so I loved that idea—“ and they were right. Everything from the clothing and hairstyles down …
Ready to Rumble (2000)
If you like pro wrestling in any way, shape or form, and this movie is just for you, yup, it is right up your alley and it will or will not prove to be a good thing. As this movie would have it, two sewage workers are extremely upset …
The Odyssey movie
An adaptation of the classic story by Homeros about the adventurer Odysseus who goes on a journey and experiences all kinds of dangers before he can finally return home.
This is the kind of adventure production that is often showed on the channel of Hallmark. That is, low budget films …

The original release date was November 3, 2006 for United States audience. …
Confessions of a Shopaholic movie
I felt sad after watching this movie. I thought it had great promise considering it was dealing with a different kind of addiction. Unfortunately, the script and the beat made the theme unimportant and somewhat irrelevant. I found so many scenes quite slapstick-y and dumb, and I felt irritated …
Movie : Dolan’s Cadillac (2009)
When I saw this movie the firs thing that surprised me was Christian Slater was still acting. I was sure he had dissapeared into oblivion years ago, but based on his starrign role in the film he obviously still has a lot left to offer the cinema world and …
The Glass House,2001 movie
A mediocre, predictable thriller with quite a few plotholes and not the best acting. Ruby (Leelee Sobieski), a 16 year old girl, and her brother Rhett (Trevor Morgan) are orphaned when their parents die in a car accident. A wealthy couple adopts them, supposedly according to the dead parents …
No Smoking Movie
I checked out “No Smoking” first day, first show with big expectation from a promising star cast and a promising director. I don’t no what went wrong with director Anurag Kashyap for making such a bad movie.
The story, what should I say, is baseless. Even after two hours …
The Sweetest Thing
“The Sweetest Thing” was a Romance and Comedy flick which was released in 2002. It is also what some people might call a “Chick Flick” as it revolves around the lives of several young female friends and one of them who is trying to track down a guy she …

Oceans-movie (2010)
Last night, my best friend and I went to see the movie Oceans and I have to say that it was pretty good! I would totally recommend going to see it, especially if you like not only Hollywood, but also documentary type of movies. You will enjoy learning about …
Singing Babies - Nursery Rhyme Time DVD

I watched this The Real Beckhams DVD the other night and here is what I have to say about this. I am truly surprised that this DVD is that good. No kidding. You guys should watch it, I highly recommend it to you guys.
This is also extremely …
Confessions (Japanese Movie)
Confessions (Kokuhaku) is a 2010 Japanese drama film directed by Tetsuya Nakashima, based on Kanae Minato’s 2008 debut mystery novel.
A friend of mine recommended the movie to me, she is very excited about it and is practically chanting “must watch” over and over again! Knowing that we’ve quite similar …
Globe Cinema
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 …
Saving Private Ryan
Saving Private Ryan is a movie you will want to watch over and over again. It is a unforgetable story about World War II. Tom Hanks stars as Captain John Miller who is ordered to take his men behind the enemy lines in order to save Private James Ryan. …

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 …
Way of War
OK, I’ve always thought Cuba Gooding Jr. was much better in comedies than dramas (with a few exceptions). But, the movie Way of War does more than prove me right about that.
This movie, which casts Gooding as a special operations assassin, makes absolutely no sense whatsoever. I think they …
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 …
SHARK BOY AND LAVA GIRL IN 3 D
It’s been a long while since I truly enjoyed a 3D movie! Most of them are gory and that is not what I enjoy. I have been watching and watching, again, a 3D movie that is really fun to watch and totally with a “G” rating. My grandsons are …
Sisterhood of the traveling pants 2
I rented and watched the sisterhoods of traveling pants 2 today. I’ve never seen the first one but I understood most of it. It was kind of boring at parts, and I felt like something was missing in it. It is a teen movie so maybe that is why …
Shrek
The way people were hyping the movie made me very excited to see it. I was ready for a movie with wall to wall laughs, and a great story, like a Finding Nemo. What I got was a few laughs and a lackluster story, in my opinion. …
You, Me & Dupree-Movie
Went to watch Pirates Of Carribean, but again I landed up in the theatre in odd time. I miss the movies many a times due to the start timings and wish to watch a movie from the start. This time I didnt want to go back home without watching …
Due South: Free Willie
Due South: Free Willie reminded me of a series I watched a lot called McCloud. In that show, Dennis Weaver played a United States Marshal from Taos, New Mexico who was temporarily assigned to duty in New York City. He was a fish out of water, but …
50 First Dates
This is a fun yet predictable movie starring Adma Sandler (enough said on what kind of movie to expect) basically the story goes like this. Adam Sandler plays the part of an average dude who lives in Hawaii and falls for a blonde (Drew Barrymore) which he met in …
S.W.A.T movie
This movie stars Samuel L. Jackson, Colin Farrell, Michelle Rodriguez and LL Cool J. This is really a good movie and everyone can just learn a lot from it. Everyone can truly appreciate the work of SWAT members.
Jim Street (Colin Farrell) made a big mistake in his mission when …
Haunted Echoes movie 2008
I rented Haunted Echoes because I love a good ghost story, and I noticed that Sean Young starred in it, a favorite actress from Blade Runner in the early 80’s that I don’t think I have seen too often in anything since. She is still lovely. This film was …
D-War: Dragon Wars (2007)
You haven’t seen a crappy movie until you have seen this movie, I mean, when I first saw the preview for this movie, I was truly expecting to see one the greatest movies featuring lots and lots of dragons and mythological creatures coming to terrorize humankind, but instead, I …
(500) Days of Summer movie
If you like romantic comedies this is, in my opinion, the best of the year. Believe it or not, as a fan of all things romantic, I’ve a very low tolerance for the cheese-factor in film scripts. Yep, I still pride myself on being a realist. …
Movie Basket Case
Basket Case is an old movie from the year 1982. This movie is of course kind of cheesy and funny. Yet it is also scary, and kind of bloody. I think the old horror movies like Basket Case were a lot scarier, than the movies they make these days. …
Lifeforce (1985) movie
Starring: Steve Railsback, Peter Firth, Frank Finlay, Mathilda May, Patrick Stewart, Aubrey Morris, Michael Gothard, and Nicholas Ball.
Directed by: Tobe Hooper.
Based on the novel “Space Vampires” by Colin Wilson, that pretty much spells out the plot and theme of “Lifeforce” - Hidden in the nucleus of Hailey’s Comet is …
Transformers 2: Revenge of the Fallen
I have seen some bad movies in my day, but good lord does this one take the cake. I know, it’s kind of popular to hate on Michael Bay, but he can, more often than not, deliver an entertaining popcorn flick. Heck, I enjoyed the first Transformers …
She’s The Man comedy
This is one of my favorite comedies. There are a lot of funny parts in it. It is more of a girls movie but I know a couple of guys who enjoyed the movie. It was a great comedy movie. There are a couple of parts where Amanda Bynes …

Showgirls movie
Showgirls is one of the most idiotic, lame and stupid movies I’ve ever has the non-pleasure of watching. Elizabeth Berkley attempts to pull off her pitiful character, Nomi, and fails miserably. I never thought much of Elizabeth Berkley and her acting anyway, and Showgirls was the straw that broke …
Panic in Echo Park movie
Panic in Echo Park, a movie released in 1977, starred Dorian Harewood who many people know from the sequel to Roots. That’s what brought him to my attention and has continued to get me to notice him. He’s a very good actor and has done some fine …
Ella Enchanted: Movie
Ella Enchanted is a fun movie that is good for all ages. It is a fantasy, taking place in an imaginary world where magic is real. When baby Ella is born, a fairy grants her the “gift” of obedience. This means that every time someone gives …
Regarding Henry movie
This movie, Regarding Henry, is one I enjoy watching a great deal. It stars Harrison Ford as a very unlikable lawyer who cares more about image and his dining room table than he does for his wife and daughter. Annette Bening is the wife, and Mikki Allen …
Pretty Persuasion (R, 2005)
I didn’t know what to think at first about this really quirky film. I knew that starring Evan Rachel Wood in the lead role, there would be something avante garde about the subject matter. IN this movie, she portrays a young high schooler named Kimberly, who ropes …
