As Good As It Gets movie

Candyman 2: Farewell to the Flesh Movie

Movie Nuts
Nuts has too much profanity in it for my taste, but otherwise, Nuts is a wonderful movie. Never assume because your assumptions may be all wrong. People wanted to judge Claudia Draper, a woman accused of murder. She was a high priced call girl, and that’s …

Movie Tank Girl

How to Lose Friends and Alienate People movie

Snakes on a Plane (2006)
Snakes on a Plane… The title pretty much sums it up: that’s what the movie is about, snakes on a plane biting and killing people. There is no point, no deeper meaning, just that. Of course, there is some basic plot, explaining how hundreds of snakes got on an …
Harry Potter & The Goblet of Fire
To kind of quote Indiana Jones, now we’re getting nasty. This is the first of the Potter stories to have someone killed, giving us a taste of what’s to come, priming us, if you will. The atmosphere of Goblet of Fire is decidedly darker. The moods of the characters …
Carol (2015 Film)

Biloxi Blues
When I got a chance to sit down and watch Biloxi Blues the other day, it was because I remembered it being a funny movie.
Somehow my memories must be off because this movie was anything but.
It was an OK film and gives a small insight into basic training toward …
Pride
Some times I wonder if Hollywood has given up trying to come up with something original and just keeps rehashing the same plot in a different context.
The movie Pride is a perfect example of this.
Overall, Pride is an OK film. But, it’s the same film I’ve seen 20 times …
