If you ever want to spend 90 minutes of your life feeling like you are wasting your time, you should watch the movie Satan’s Playground.

Django Unchained movie
Love him or loathe him, Quentin Tarantino remains a Hollywood institution. One of only a handful of directors who can command a bigger box office clout than most stars. Not that QT is adverse to casting big named talent in his movies. On the contrary, Brad Pitt and more …
Shakespeare in love
Shakespeare in love is a movie which is really well made and which is worth watching. It is a nice drama with Joseph Fiennes and Gwyneth Paltrow as the leading actors. It is the story of the world’s best master storyteller William Shakespeare. Shakespeare does stage in a town …
San Andreas - Movie (2015)
I watched San Andreas in IMAX 3D. I’m glad I made that decision because I was able to fully appreciate the visuals. The movie is a natural disaster movie and seeing it in IMAX 3D made it incredibly real. This movie isn’t only about earthquakes as many people might feel …
Bats (1999)
You want a horror movie with a simple plot, one that just gets down to the meat of the matter and give the goods without any going around in circles, one that tosses you right into the middle of the chaos and tells you to either sink or swim, …
Leatherheads movie
George Clooney, Rennee Zellwegger play in this movie. It’s basically about football a long time ago. It was an entertaining movie. Other than that it was just a movie. If you are looking for a good story then I don’t recommend leatherheads. If you are just looking for a …
Murder on the Orient Express movie
I’ve never seen Murder on the Orient Express before, though I’ve often heard about it and have seen many commercials promoting various incarnations of it over the years. I’ve been curious about the Agatha Christie story for a long time, but for whatever reason never actually sat down …
The Cutting Edge Movie
Among the Cutting Edge movies that were made (there were three) this is what I like best. I have probably seen it five times already. I enjoy watching this because I like figure skating and The Cutting Edge has plenty of scenes showcasing some fancy maneuvers. It is funny …
10 Things I Hate About You Movie
Wow…this movie is just great! With Heath Ledger and Julia Stiles as main actor/actress, a great script (come on! the storyline is based on Shakespeare’s The Taming of The Shrew!) nothing could go wrong, and nothing did went wrong!
Of course, this movie is much more suitable for gals - …
Click movie
I was looking for a movie that has it all drama, comedy, a great plot. A friend told me to watch the movie Click. I did and I tell you I do not regret it. This movie was a tear jearker I cried like a baby in two different …
Weird Science (movie)
Even though it hasn’t gotten a very good rating, the movie “Weird Science” is one of those teenage coming of age comedies that I think a lot of people consider as a classic somewhat. I personally never really liked it because it was exceptional, but I liked it because …
Next, Lee Tamahori Movie
Cris Johson, this young man since birth has extraordinary talent. Cris can predict what will befall him in the future, exactly two minutes to the front. However, this does not apply for a woman believed to be his life partner, Liz. Short stories, Liz and Cris met and they …
Movie: Furry Vengence
As I mentioned in another review, my daughter convinced my wife to get movies from one of those movie kiosks this past weekend (they just don’t seem to understand we have Netflix for a reason). Since she got two movies for the price of one, my wife decided to …
Ghost Ship
Oh my God, that was a great movie. I haven’t seen Ghost Ship in ages and finally got a chance to watch it late last night.
My wife hates this movie even though she usually likes horror films. The whole thing, which is about a shipwreck that is discovered and …
Bob’s Busy Day movie
Bob’s Busy Day is actually a movie short, and it’s notable for one main reason. It is the debut of Bob Hope. It’s big on comedy, including physical humor, beginning with Hope’s signature big nose. He’s definitely a younger man here. He’s slimmer and that …
Dukes of Hazzard
From the previews, the movie, Dukes of Hazzard, looks absolutely stupid and something I would never watch in a million years.
Well, I did wind up watching it and was surprised at just how funny it was.
The Dukes of Hazzard is an entertaining film that essentially spoofs the television series …
Wedding Date movie
Wedding Date is one of my favorite romantic movie. I was able to buy a copy of it when I was at a local DVD store and the cover got my eyes so I decided to buy it. I like the movie so much because it a good film …
I Know What You Did Last Summer
I Know What You Did Last Summer with Jennifer Love Hewitt, Sarah Michele Gellar, Freddie Prince Jr., Ryan Phillippe, and Anne Heche.
This is a classic in the terror genre of killer stalker movies and is rightfully so a model for many copycats to come. The …
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 …
Movie: Stripes
Synopsis: Two men, who are fed up with their jobs and their lives, decide to enlist in the army. The only problem is, they really don’t seem to fit in there either.
What I liked about this movie: I have seen this film dozens of times and it never gets …
Oz the Great and Powerful, 2013 movie
I just watched Oz the Great and Powerful and I have to say that I am a little disappointed by it. I was expecting a great movie and all I got was a so and so one. Before watching it I was thinking to myself “God, I hope James …
Good Neighbors Movie (2010)
I was looking forward to seeing the movie Good Neighbors for quite some time. I have read mixed reviews about it and wanted to check it out for myself. My overall impression at the end of the movie was that overall it is a forgettable movie. There have been …
The Interrogation movie

Apparantly his superiors have reason to think he’s somehow connected with communism, which does not suit the swedish government. Hamilton denies this, but the interrogrators will not …
Charlie Wilson’s War, biographical drama film by Mike Nichols
Something about Charlie Wilson’s War doesn’t feel right. The film tells the true story about Charlie Wilson and how he single handedly took down the Soviets. I was left with a bad taste in my mouth after watching this movie and I don’t know why I feel this way …

Step Up, directed by Anne Fletcher is rated PG-13 bythe Motion Picture Association of America for thematic elements, brief violence and innuendo.

300 Movie
Intense action and extreme fighting scenarios of this movie had me repeatedly saying my favorite exclamation phrases. The movie 300 DID bring the Spartans to their greatest glory! Knowing that this had happened in real life thousands of years ago (based on what I have read) added my fascination …
“Narcos” Series on Netflix
To put into perspective, the duality of this Netflix Original greatly symbolizes the duality of the genre bending that it is standing for. “Narcos” is both a crime drama as much as a pseusdo-drama-based documentary. That might be a mouthful but it also makes sense why this show …
The Matrix movie
The Matrix is a science fiction film released in 1999 starring Keanu Reeves and written and directed by the Wachowski brothers, the film also stars Laurence Fishburne, the soundtrack to the film is really good, featuring Marilyn Manson, Rage Against The Machine, The Prodigy and Rob Zombie among others. …
Star Wars: The Phantom Menace 3D
The prequel Star Wars movies are some of the most hated pieces of fiction in the entire universe known to man. Do they deserve that hate? No. I must say, I never hated the prequels as much as everyone else. Keep in mind, this movie originally came out 2 …
Movie: Plan 9 from Outer Space
I was the first one up Sunday morning; well, me and my 1-year-old. Since it was too early to do anything without waking people up, I ended up sitting on the couch with my daughter, wrapped in a blanket and watching a movie.
The film I picked was the Ed …

Four years after the epic movie “Gladiator”, Brad Pitt attempts to make a success out of another epic movie “Troy”. The only two things in common that these two movies have are that they were both filmed in Malta. While “Gladiator” was a huge blockbuster, “Troy” failed …
Dumbo
Dumbo is a timeless animation classic. This movie will forever live in the hearts of those who saw it. I think that the story of the tiny elephant with big ears was very cute and very sad as well. I was very happy as a kid when I saw this …
The Net movie
From 1995, The Net is a suspenseful, very well made drama. It’s identity theft to the nth degree, and it’s scary. Sandra Bullock plays Angela Bennett. She’s somewhat of a recluse, and she’s a computer nerd/geek. She’s a master programmer and hacker, and she knows …
Inception (movie)
This film thoroughly surprised me - I never thought a film could be so thought provoking. The plot itself is rather complicated, I had to watch it a few times just to understand everything that happens. However I thought this is what made the film so great. I could …
The Mirror Has Two Faces movie
Barbra Streisand directed and starred in The Mirror Has Two Faces, a 1996 movie that co-starred Jeff Bridges and Lauren Bacall. The great Bacall was stellar as Streisand’s mother. What a duo those two made. It was like watching American royalty with two great and dynamic …
Tyler Perry’s “Why Did I Get Married”
Tyler Perry’s latest film, “Why did I get Married,” is perhaps his best film yet. This well written and directed drama is both inspiring and hilarious.
The films plot centers around a group of married couples who meet in the mountains of Colorado for a couples …
3:10 to Yuma-the Removie (2007)
I like westerns very much and am always pleased when Hollywood makes another one with a high budget and good actors. I enjoyed “3:10 to Yuma”-the removie very much. I found it believable and superior to the original. “3:10 to Yuma” is a Relativity Media production, a company that …

The Dead Zone
The Dead Zone was a very spooky and great movie. I thought this film had is all and was a movie that really messed with your mind. Christopher Walken did a great job of acting in this movie! Even though the movie is quite old it is a great film …
Poltergeist
When I was fourteen, this movie scared me. And I felt then, and now, that I don’t scare easily. Very few movies even give me the chills. But Poltergeist scared me, and at the same time thrilled me. It became somewhat of both an embarrassment and a disappointment that …

The Heartbreak Kid
I’m a Ben Stiller fan so I’ve seen almost all his films. I love him most in Meet the Parents and hated him in Zoolander. I must say that I didn’t really like his latest movie The Heartbreak Kid, a remake of a 1972 comedy. Directed by the Farrelly …
