9 Songs movie
This movie revolves around a couple and a concert…and that’s basically the whole plot. Every other scene is from the couple in there room to the concert floor. The concert is relatively a boring one, but the scenes of the couple leave nothing to the imagination. Not a very …
Film Carrie
The film that launched the books of Stephen Kin into fame and had a similar effect on director Brian De Palma’s career, Carrie is considered by many to be a classic horror film and a perfect example of high school hell.
Telling the tale of poor Carrie White, object of …
The Prestige (PG-13, 2006) movie
This was an interesting movie. Not quite what I expected. But since I love Christian Bale and Hugh Jackman–so that in and of itself warranted a viewing. However, this is a story that is relayed with care and precision. But I will admit that certain …
Runaway Bride (1999)
Runaway Bride, another movie starring Richard Gere and Julia Roberts (because who can forget Pretty Woman), features a cast full of recognizable tv actors and actresses. In fact, one of the actors with a small role as a friend of Ike’s is also in Pretty Woman. (I like him, …

The Sorcerer’s Apprentice Movie (2010)
I had always liked Nicolas Cage, in fact, he has always been my #1 favorite actor of all times and he still is right now, but when I saw the trailer for this movie I had let out a scoff and a giggle, I never thought he would go …

Smiley Face (movie)
I developed a liking for the comedy actress Anna Farris once she played the role of Cindy in the Scary movie series, and also played a few other comedy roles to my liking. Therefore, a part from the plot, this was why when I heard about the movie Smiley …
The Eye Movie
The Eye is one of those movies that I kind of wanted to see, but I really wasn’t sure if I would like it. As one of those rare (very rare) horror fans that never really liked the Japanese imports, I’ve been more than a little disappointed at the …
After Dark Thrillers dvd
Here is another dvd from my friend’s horror movie dvd collection. He likes old movies from the seventies mostly, and lent me this dvd which he said he was told had some good horror films on it. However, when I watched it I didn’t like the movies at all. …
Lost Weekend movie
Billy Wilder was one of Hollywood’s most successful and original filmmakers during the golden era. He is most famous for masterpieces like Sunset Boulevard, Double Indemnity and Some like it hot, but The Lost Weekend is just an important film as those ones in my opinion. It’s the story …
Sally Field
Sally Field is an amazing American actress. She began her career in The Flying Nun, an old television series about a young nun who could fly (this was due to her habit, not wings!). Sally Field has also starred in such wonderful films as Norma Rae, Sybil, Places In …
Finding Dory (2016 Animated Film)
The fact that most sequels nowadays fail to grasp the success of their predecessors is just pure tragic. The world needs fresh ideas, or perhaps an innovation of original stories sequels are based to. But few filmmakers understood that, so instead of getting rave reviews from everyone, they are mostly …
Inkheart (staring Brandon Fraser)
This is one of the best movie stared by Brandon Fraser. He has done a good job in this movie. As a character named Mo, which is one of the Silvertongues (person who can make a character of a story book comes to real world), he act in his …
Dracula 2000 movie
The only disadvantage about this movie which I remember is that I thought the movie should have been a little longer. A part from that it is one of my favorite vampire movies. The movie has no old, or middle aged man playing the role of Count Dracula and …
Pirates of the Caribbean movie
Pirates of the Caribbean - Curse of the Black Pearl VHS
This wonderful adventure film is one of my all-time favorites because of its imagery, well-chosen cast, and exciting, fast-paced storyline. If you like stories of the pirate era or any type of high energy adventure, it just might become …
Kazzam (Movie 1996)
A failed attempt by Shaquille O’Neal to perform as an actor. The only thing Shaquille O’Neal should be doing is working on his basketball game, leave the acting to the professionals. It seems everybody wants a piece of Hollywood. Now, why the feltthe need to cast Shaq as a …
Adventures in Babysitting
Adventures in Babysitting was a fun little movie directed by Chris Columbus that came out in the eighties. Elizabeth Shue plays the perfect combination of girl-next-door and blonde bombshell who every guy wants to call his girlfriend. Starring in the title role, Shue hams it up nicely as …
Disney’s The Hunchback of Notre Dame
A classic remake in animation of The Hunchback of Notre Dame. It’s wonderful use of colours left my eyes watering…and the plot was good. Good guys showed their courage, bad guys showed how evil they can be, and gargoyles showed they had no legs…lol. This is another great animated …
Space Cowboys
I haven’t seen the movie Space Cowboys since my wife and I saw it years ago on one of our first dates together (we can’t remember if it was the first or second movie we ever saw together). So, when it came on a couple nights ago, I figured …
Madagascar 2 Back to Africa (2008 movie)
I never thought that my son would fall in love with the series as quickly as he did. He especially loves the Penguins. And to be honest , I like the Penguins, too. They can be really funny sometimes. What I like about this movie is it basically has …
Friday the 13th (2009), slasher film
Friday the 13th tends to scare most when it is brought up. Either as a day or the movie franchise, Friday the 13th is well known around the world. When word got around that Michael Bays production company was producing the latest Friday the 13th movie fans were terrified.
There …
Risky Business movie
I believe “Risky Business” represents an interesting way on how to make teen movie. It was an innovative way how to address teen and staying away from the teen movie stereotype. “Risky Business” also represented a nomination for the Golden Globe for a very young Tom Cruise. I personally …

The Evil Dead (1981)
Starring: Bruce Campbell, Ellen Sandweiss, Betsy Baker, Hal Delrich, and Theresa Tilly.
Directed by: Sam Raimi.
Launching Sam Raimi’s career, The Evil Dead is a weird mixture of gore, horror, and comedy; not exactly in the same vein as something such as RoboCop, that’s an entirely different animal of a film. …
300 (The Movie)
Being a fan of action and adventure, I had high hopes for this movie. I can gladly say that I was not disappointed. It was so great and kept me on the edge of my seat. The scenes were beautifully done and so picturesque. It told the story of …
LAND OF THE DEAD movie
LAND OF THE DEAD
It seemed that George Romero would never make another zombie film. Twenty years had passed since the release and flop of the over-rated DAY OF THE DEAD and nary a new Romero Zombie film was in sight.
Actually, this film was bouncing around in development for a …
Taxi No. 9211 (movie) Feb, 2006
This one is a great movie. I just loved this movie. It released on 24th of February, 2006. This film is directed by Milan Luthria who has done a brilliant job. This movie is pretty different from the typical Bollywood films. The protagonist of the film is played by …
Twilight
I went to watch the movie Twilight with my friends, as we all were going crazy after watching the movie trailer; we were already fans of twilight before the movie came out as we had a book club. I loved reading all the series.
When we watched the movie, it …
‘Paranormal Activity: The Marked Ones’ movie
After the fourth movie, I was convinced that the “Paranormal Activity” franchise was dead. I liked the first two, but after that, the formula wore thin and they didn’t have anything new to bring to the table.
Enter this “spin-off” that follows another family as they are …
The Aviator
The Aviator tells the true story of director and industrialist Howard Hughes or as close to true as it gets in Hollywood. Hughes is played well by Leonardo DiCaprio and other actors turn up at odd times playing someone else important in the man’s life. Kate Beckinsale plays Ava …
Movie Underworld
I like to watch the movie “Underworld” in which the Lycans(werewolves) and Vampires are at war.
In this movie Celine played very well by Kate Beckinsale is trying to find out why the Lycans and Vampires are trying to kill a human played by Scott Speedman.
As …
“Grindhouse” (2007 double feature)
“Grindhouse” consists of two wildly entertaining films, “Planet Terror,” written and directed by Robert Rodriguez, and “Death Proof,” written and directed by Quentin Tarantino. Both fall into a category that can partially be described as an homage to low-budget exploitation cinema popular in the 1970’s and the kind of …

Cloverfield movie
Cloverfield through advertising it brought up a lot of wonder of what the hell the film was about. Watching the film was quite hard, because of the use of one camera its hard to fit in cuts, they did a great job of this putting in cuts whenever falling …
How the West Was Won
How the West Was Won is an epic motion picture with some really great scenery. The cinematography is outstanding. It’s a star studded cast which brings to life the story of the movement west. It begins in St. Joseph, Missouri, the jumping off point for all …
The Banger Sisters
In all honesty I don’t know why Susan Sarandon decided to participate in an average movie such as “The Banger Sisters”. The only reason that comes to my mind is that, after 11 years, from her successful movie “Thelma & Louise”, she thought this movie will have the same …
The Edge of Seventeen (2016 Coming-of-Age Film)
Seriously? Another coming-of-age/young adult movie? Well yes, that is what I expected when I watched this film last night. However, when the film ended, I accused myself of immediately judging the book by its own cover. What happens inside this movie is structurally the same as almost any young adult …
“Ever After” (1998 Film)

RedBox Kiosk to Rent Movies
I have lived in several states over the past few years and each place I lived had a RedBox kiosk somewhere close by. Usually the kiosk was located at Wal-Mart or Kroger.
I have only had two incidents with using RedBox, but was compensated for each infraction. Twice I …
After Earth (2013, Movie)
When I heard about this movie, a science-fiction, with Will Smith and his son, Jaden Smith, I thought it was gonna be a good film, due to previous movies in which Will Smith played. For me, personally, it was a disappointment, and here is why…
First of all, the movie …
Columbo: Caution: Murder Can Be Hazardous to Your Health movie
Columbo: Caution: Murder Can Be Hazardous to Your Health is one of the 1991 movies of the Columbo movies, and it’s one I like a lot. It guest starred George Hamilton as security guru turned reality show host, Wade Anders. In essence, think of him as John …
Shooter, conspiracy thriller film by Antoine Fuqua
When I first saw a trailer for the movie I thought it was a Bourne rip off, it showed non stop ass kicking from Mark Wahlberg. After I was finished with this movie I still want to say it is a Bourne rip off just not through the plot …

Endgame: Blueprint for Global Enslavement
There will many who brand Alex Jones, the Austin based documentary filmmaker, radio and tv host as a conspiracy nut. Heck, I would have done so not too terribly long ago. However, after seeing many of his films I have begun to see that there is a …
Virtuosity movie
The police creates a new kind of machine, with the qualities of ALL kinds of criminals. This is supposed to be a training tool for the officers, but somehow the machine manages to escape.
Very corny, unlogical and unrealistic film with fine actors like Denzel Washington and Russell Crowe wasting …
From Dusk Till Dawn (1996)
Out of curiosity in college, I watched this movie. That was because of my professor in Graphics and Special Effects who recommended this to the class saying this has a good special effects sample. Well, it did not fail me. The transformation of humans into grotesque …
