I am reviewing the Disney movie, Homeward Bound 2, Lost in San Fransisco. This movie is a sequel to Homeward Bound 1, the Incredible Journey. Now, usually sequels are bombs and are completely unsuccessful. I don’t think this is the case here. Homeward Bound 2 was not …

Since I have just reviewed the new movie “The Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man’s Chest,” I thought it would be a good idea to review its first part, “The Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl” released in 2003. The first movie is much better …

A couple of months ago I watched a trailer of the movie Elysium. My first expressions were «WOW. That is a must-watch movie». It was full of superb special effects, action and some new idea.

Eve’s Hot Pepper Sauce

Child’s Play (movie)

The first time I watched this movie was when I was either watching a documentary about either the actor Tobey Maguire or the actor Leonardo DiCaprio. However, I can remember recalling that I had never heard of that movie and would someday like to watch it, as it starred …
The Skeleton Key
“The Skeleton Key” was the first movie that was not a romance comedy which I had the pleasure of seeing Kate Hudson in. I hate romance comedies, and so seeing her in another movie which was not a romance comedy, especially a horror movie, was very refreshing to me. …

Waiting, movie
It might be a bit much for a more grown up audience, but “Waiting” does have its good moments and brings up the feelings that almost everyone goes through at one time or another when they don’t know where they’re going in life. Ryan Reynolds’s is charming, Dane Cook …
‘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 …
Pitch Perfect, movie
This movie was pretty good. I won’t have that much to say about it. Even though it was a well-adjusted movie it wasn’t the best, and improvements could be made to it. This isn’t so much about the movie belonging to a specific genre than it is about music. …
Movie Ishtar
When this thing came out in the late 1980’s, it was slammed so roundly by a mass group of film critics that I didn’t even bother to go see it. I did, however, decide to “treat” myself to a cable television presentation of it not long ago …

This is successful when they go …
Listerine Whitening Vibrant White Pre-Brush Rinse
I recently tried a different brand of whitening mouthwash called Listerine Whitening Vibrant White Pre-Brush Rinse. Mouthwash is an important part of any dental hygiene regimen, so a whitening pre-brush rinse is a necessary item to have on hand.

BoogeyMan movie

The Ghost and the Darkness movie
When I saw the Ghost and the Darkness on sale at the store I had to buy it for my collection. This is one of the most suspense filled movies I’ve ever seen and definitely one that will make you think.
I think this is one of Val Kilmer’s and …

When I saw the movie “Martian Kid” on the cable guide last night, I immediately decided to watch it since I thought just the title of the movie sounded very interesting and promising, and I wanted to watch it since I thought that the title sounded very unfamiliar to …
Signs Movie
I was flipping through my Netflix Instant Watch catalog the other night and came across the movie Signs and decided to watch it again.

When the trailer for Sex and the City …
Amelie (romantic comedy movie)
After watching it, I’ve come to the conclusion that “Amelie” is one of those movies that is so unique and enjoyable that I could find myself watching it multiple times. This is even though I’m not a huge fan of most romantic comedies.
The movie revolves around the very peculiar …
Batman Begins
I am reviewing the 2006 movie, Batman Begins, staring Christian Bale, Gary Oldman, Liam Neeson, Morgan Freeman, and Michael Caine. I for one am not a huge comic fan or anything dealing with super-heroes and what not, but I really enjoyed this movie. Christian Bale is phenomenal as …

Bulletproof
Adam Sandler has attempted to do dramas in the past and has failed miserably. Ironically, the best drama he has is one that was supposed to have been a comedy; Bulletproof.
The thing I like about Bulletproof is, even though you do have some funny moments in it, the movie …
Heath Ledger’s A Knights Tale
Heath Ledger was best at his old-fashioned roles I think. He could play the gentleman, the rogue, even the villain, but his most touching films are ones that he is dawning an old-fashioned tunic, and this is one of those. This was the first movie of his that I …

It Runs in the Family (2003)
The movie is starring Kirk and Michael Douglas, as well as Cameron Douglas. This movie was more of a family reunion for the actors themselves, rather than entertainment or movie of great value. Despite all the publicity and the positive exposure, in my experience, it is one hard-to-watch …
