Avatar in Digital 3D
I wanted to write about Avatar while it’s still fresh in my mind. I watched it on December 24, 2009 for a hefty fee of $14.99 (that’s how much it costs to watch a full-blown digital 3D movie these days). On second thought, this cost is not …
Stargate SG-1 The First Commandment
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. …

From Paris With Love (2010) movie

It Follows, horror movie
Within the last few years the genre of “Horror” for me seems to repeat the same mundane patterns of predictability and flatness. However, “It follows” is a gripping and tense horror flick that will leave you shaken, yet wanting more.
With barely anytime to get comfy, director (David Robert Mitchell) has …
OLDBOY (2003) - Film
Before watching this film I knew nothing about it other than its name, and the fact it had won a bunch of awards. I saw the film’s poster, which although quite cool, didn’t make me want to watch the film itself. It was a good few years after its …
127 Hours (movie)

Movie: “Evan Almighty” (2007)
This movie was a sequel to the 2003 comedy classic “Bruce Almighty”, but it did absolutely no justice to “Bruce”. “Evan Almighty” was sheer disappointment from start to finish.
The usually hilarious Steve Carell returns as Evan Baxter, his character from the first movie. In this film, he has just …
Traitor, spy thriller film
Traitor came out and was hoping to bank off of the success of other films. It didn’t work too well but can the video release at least shed some life on Don Cheadle’s action movie?
Samir Horn (Don Cheadle) sells weapons to terrorists. When a sale in Yemin goes …
20th Century Women (2016 Comedy-Drama Film)
The moment the trailer of Mike Mills’ latest film “20th Century Women” arrived I became immediately excited. The sense of nostalgia in recreating the 1970’s again (even if I was born in the 90’s) excites me in a way that I felt euphoric just thinking what the film could be. …
Planet 51 Movie 2009

Powder Movie
“Powder” is one of the worth watching movies I ever watched. The story is very emotional and sensational. Direction, Cast and crew and the other supports have done their duty well.
Here I mention the story in brief to give an idea about the film.

Lars and the Real Girl (PG-13, 2007) movie
I skipped this film in theaters because I wasn’t sure that I could sit through two hours of watching people pretend that a Real Doll (sex doll) was really the girlfriend of a local man. I realized upon watching this movie that I was right in my decision …
Wes Craven movie Red Eye
Well I laughed and that’s something. These are my thoughts on the Wes Craven movie Red Eye. I approached this movie with much trepidation. The last time Craven stepped outside the horror genre he made Music of the Heart. You surely understand my reservations. Red Eye however, is …
“Palermo shooting” movie
Seemed to be good. Wim Wenders, the desire to pay tribute to Bergman and Antonioni, Milla Jovovich and Dennis Hopper … Fans of punk certainly hoped for a successful role Campino. However, “Palermo shooting” not impressed …

Zor (movie), 1998

The Princess Bride
To blave, that’s what this story is about. And if you find that inconceivable, try to stomach the kissing scenes and see where that gets you.

Columbo: Undercover movie
In Columbo: Undercover, Ed Begley Jr guest stars as Irving Krutch, insurance investigator. We get 5 minutes of him in this offbeat role. He wore me out and he bore me at the same time. I lost interest in his shenanigans in his overdone storytelling. …

The movie A Shark’s Tale
A Shark’s Tale is one of those movies that looks like it might be okay, but the thought of paying movie theater prices to see it scares the crap out of you. I had this problem on the one hand it had a really great cast. Even Robert De …
Dead Mans Shoes (2004)

The Notebook movie
The Notebook movie is real horrible and I never could quite get why people liked it so much. The book was ok but the movie was horrid. First off the actress they got to play the main role was awesome and she played the character well but the main …
I Am Legend
I must admit, I have never been much of a Will Smith fan…until this movie. With so few human interaction scenes (for most of the movie, he is with a dog), he pulled off the lonely, depressed person very well. The storyline is amazing and, at the …
