Vanessa Hudgens is the rising young star of Disney. Thanks to High School Musical, she is now a nation wide start. She can act, sing, and dance. That’s a triple threat for you. Recently, I’ve noticed she has gotten more womanly. She has more curves now compared to the …

The proof that this movie is a good one is because of the 5 oscars: …

A science fiction film with a very young US President calling major shots. Well put together cast and a decent plot. Aliens come to earth with a mysterious intention and as stupid people do…we humans send out a helicopter with flashing lights to welcome our visitors. A race travel …

I took the time to watch the Jim Carrey movie Yes Man even though I had some reservations about it. I don’t mind him as an actor but some of his films are a bit too much for me.
However, I will admit the movie was much better than expected.
Carrey …

I don’t know what on the earth prompt me to go for this movie; I had already read so many reviews about the film with filled mixed reactions. Those who had watched highly acclaimed classic with the same name made in 1951 simply loathed this one. I myself had …

As I’ve indicated in other reviews, I’m not a huge fan of British movies. And, the Hugh Grant film About a Boy is a good example of why.

This weekend was the first time I have seen the movie The Devil’s Brigade; though I had heard of it and it has been on TV a few times in the past year or so.
Overall, it was an OK movie with plenty of action.
The film is about a group …

I rented “Something the Lord Made” from Netflix this past week. It initially caught my eye because it starred one of my favorite actors, Alan Rickman.

I just can’t help it. Whenever I see Keanu Reeves in a movie, regardless of how good it might be, I instantly have flashbacks to Bill & Ted’s Excellent Adventure and, no matter how hard I try, I can’t take him seriously.
This was the situation when I sat down …

Whoever told Ben Affleck that he can wear tights yet alone act (without Matt Damon) needs therapy. Bringing this comic book hero to life using this type of actor/acting is reprehensible and I dare say that they should have known better. While there are some actors cut out to …

My cousin brought this movie by for me to watch the other day because she has been borrowing a lot of mine. I just watched it a couple of hours ago. It was a pretty good movie all around. I think it could have been better but overall it …

I have watched the movie The Princess Bride countless times now. And, I have to say, even after seeing it more times than just about any other movie (including Star Wars), this film is still as good as it was the first time I saw it.

First, I can’t remember the first Asterix movie I watched, but I remember it was very funny. I’m disappointed by this one though, more details later. If you’ve read their comics, then you know that Asterix and Obelix are a lovable character from the Gaul village in …

My winter holiday began last week and after months and months of toil and mental abuse offered freely and in great quantities by the glorious educational system, I decided that there would be no greater way to commence the days of pseudo-freedom than going to see a movie. And …

The title ‘Strictly Sexual’ invariably attracts the attention of youngsters and middle-aged people. I also chose to watch this movie, mainly because I am interested in what the movie is about, given the seductive name. However, after I watched it, ‘Strictly Sexual’ is just an ordinary movie with a …

I saw the movie Knowing last night, and I have to say that Nicolas Cage has once again lived down to my opinion of him as a poor actor who should have quit after Raising Arizona. The movie is terrible, which isn’t all the actors’ faults, as the plot …

I, for one, believe that each should stick to what they can do…rappers rap, singers sing, dancers dance, actors act, and so on. When they try to do things that they know nothing of, they make a fool of themselves. Now, Bow wow is no stranger to the acting …

My two big brothers got me hooked on Twin Peaks only about five years ago. I had heard of the series before, but had never had the chance to watch it on television. I was too young! I liked the first season, despite the fact that it …

What’s the deal with these so called Horror Movies that are being made these days. Do they know the meaning of Horror? Correct me if i’m wrong…but shouldn’t a horror movie scare you? The rating for a typical horror is usually PG-13. How the hell can this be horror, …

My wife and I were feeling a bit nostalgic this past weekend and picked up the movie Ghoulies to watch. We both remember watching this movie as kids but couldn’t remember much from it (other than the one popping out of the toilet) and figured it would be worth …

From 1934, The Barretts of Wimpole Street is a very nice movie, though I must admit I prefer one of the remakes better. Still, this was the one that started it all, and there are some fine moments to it.
