Blockbuster Rewards Program Ohio
At times it seems like everybody and his brother has a rewards program now of days and Blockbuster took its good, sweet time releasing one of their own. The Blockbuster Rewards program is a way of getting some of their lost customers to come back into the fold with …
Children of the Corn
Children of the Corn of the corn is a movie that made me become afraid of kids. I really think this movie is horrifying. I really liked the acting in the movie. These kids were really creepy and very evil. I liked their supernatural power. The music also really scared …
Bandini Movie
Bandini - Movie Review : (meaning imprisioned) , release in 1953, was a story of a girl Kalyani, who falls in love with a social worker, who comes in her village. He promised to marry her, but never returns, later on finding out, that he was married to someone …
Rendition
“Rendition” is a great movie about terrorism and justice. This is a movie that touches your heart and makes you cry, but most importantly makes you think about the world we are living in. I truly hope that this movie receives several awards because it truly deserves it.
In a …
Jumper movie
“Jumper” was one of my favorite movies released in 2008. In fact, I did not know about the movie until I saw it advertising a little before it went into theatres. When I saw it advertising I wanted to see it a lot, but I knew I would neither …
Roxanne (1987)
C.D is the fire chief in his town, he takes his job very seriously and even though he has a very rare appendage, he does not let that get in the way of the task he has to do. He is well known and loved in the town by …
Last Holiday 2006 movie
I’ve seen this movie a couple of times now; it’s decent. I don’t think it’s one of those movies that you think of and then you HAVE to see it, but it’s a pleasant movie to watch if it happens to be on.
Some of the acting is pretty good, …
Mirrors (2008)
Mirrors is a 2008 horror film starring Kiefer Sutherland and Paula Patton. Kiefer is an ex-cop that is running the night shift at a local abandoned hospital. The mirrors in this building contain an evil force that is using a gateway to their homes.
This movie is far from the …
PS I Love You
Hilary Swank, Gerard Butler, Lisa Kudrow, Harry Connick Jnr, Jeffrey Dean Morgan and Kathy Bates. Rating M Moderate Sexual References and Theme.
I had high hopes when I sat down to watch P.S. I Love You. And I am glad to say that P.S. I Love You delivered. This is …
Bratz Babyz movie
I’ve always said, if it keeps my daughter occupied, it’s a great movie. And, Bratz Babyz is one of those movies.
Overall, it’s kind of a dumb plot. A bunch of toddler girls are able to wander a mall unsupervised without anyone noticing while trying to rescue their kidnapped dog. …
Sumuru movie
Sumuru isn’t an A-movie. It’s not really even a B-movie. I actually liken Sumuru to a Patrick Swayze movie called Skatetown USA. Both are so bad that they are oddly enticing and fun to watch. Sumuru’s main attraction is its star, Michael Shanks, who plays …
Doubt movie
In the face of progressive change, how much does compassion figure in long-established doctrine and discipline? This seems to be the question that is initially asked the audience upon watching “Doubt”, the film adaptation of the Pulitzer and Tony Award-winning period stage play by John Patrick Shanley, but as …
When Harry Met Sally
I want to review the movie when Harry met Sally because it is a long-time favourite of mine. It came out approximately 20 years ago, when I was still a teenager, and I still love it.
I love it so much because it is not a simple love story like …
Movie Cloverfield
I finally had a chance to watch Cloverfield on DVD. I have to admit, it was not exactly what I was expecting.
I was expecting a real story with enough footage that I could actually see what was happening, not another attempt at the Blairwitch Project. Just …
How to deal movie
In “How to deal” we see the actress, Mandy Moore with her hair cut short. Actually this wasn’t planned to happen but Moore felt that here hair cut fitted her role and decided to go for it without informing the movie producers. Although not very happy with the hair …
A Clockwork Orange (1971)
When it comes to masterpieces on film, Stanley Kubrick’s A Clockwork Orange knows nearly no rival. While my personal experience with the movie did not come until just last year (the incessant raving from other viewers finally pushed me into the fray to give the film a watch), I’m …
Movie: The Lorax
My wife read my oldest daughter the Dr. Seuss book the Lorax the other day. The next morning, she remembered she owned the short 1970s movie based on the book and asked if we could watch it with her as an early family movie night. After some reluctance, we …
Chernobyl Diaries 2012 Movie
I honestly expected more from the creator of Parnormal Activity Oren Peli. Many people seem to have mistaken this for a found-footage flick possibly due to Peli’s first series Paranormal Activity being found-footage or the fact that even though it’s NOT a found-footage movie they still wave the camera …
Man of Steel (movie)
One of the movies that I wanted to watch for a long time was “Man of Steel” even before the trailer was released and I heard that a new superman movie was going to be made. While I wasn’t completely familiar with the person who directed it, I do …
X-men Origins: Wolverine
As soon as I saw this movie, I knew I had to watch it, because I was a child in the nineties and was interested in the x-men cartoons and the movies when they came out. I also thought that the trailers made the movie seem amazing and that …
Movie Kicking and Screaming
Kicking and Screaming with Will Ferrell, Robert Duvall, and Mike Ditka.
I would never watch a movie about kids playing soccer. I do not like kids and I do not like soccer. So why did I give it a shot? Two reasons - …
Footloose (1984)
This movie is very simple and straight forward, it tells the story of a teenager, played by Kevin Bacon, who moves to a small town and has to basically adapt to their dull and dreary way of life that does not include ‘rock music and dancing’. Now that their …
Stephen King’s The Mist (Movie)
When it comes to most of Stephen King’s movies I know to almost always expect three things: horror, mentally ill people and jaw dropping endings. This movie gives all three. It is a psychological horror that basically tells a story about a group of people who hide out in …
Movie Heavy
Heavy with Liv Tyler, Pruitt Taylor Vince, Debbie Harry, and Shelly Winters.
I must admit that I only watched this movie because it featured the beautiful, alluring Liv Tyler. Then I continued to watch it because I could not figure what it was about. It …
Movie Enchanted
I usually like movies based on fairy tales and, overall, the film Enchanted wasn’t bad. But, I think the movie used too much of the same-old format to make it good.
Amy Adams was decent as a princess who is sent from a fairy-tale world to New York City. But, …
Ace Ventura, Pet Detective (movie)
Call me easily amused, but I sincerely think that Ace Ventura, Pet Detective is one of the most hillarious movies of all times. Jim Carey is just outstanding in this flick, and basically utilizes every funny bone in his body to put on a powerfully amusing movie. …
How to Survive a Plague documentary
There was a period in the history of health care prior to the 1996 discovery of a better drug to fight AIDS wherein matters did not look at all promising or favorable for the person who contracted the disease. At that time: there seemed to be nothing …
Pearl Harbor The Movie
I was never much for history, but I do love a good old fashioned romance which is exactly what this is. I loved this movie more than I originally thought I would and was glad I spent the money to see it in the theaters. And here’s …
Horsemen of the Apocalypse film
This film is confusing. No, let me re-phrase - that makes it sound like I am not particularly bright, and the plot got way ahead of me and induced a migraine. Not that I claim to be super intelligent either. But anyway.
This film is confused. It’s a mess of …
Edward Scissorhands (starring Johnny Depp)
Edward Scissorhands is a very heart-wrenching story that makes me cry buckets each time I watched. I just can’t get enough of Johnny Depp in this story and this is one of the best movies by him ever that I dubbed him one of the best actors. He totally deserves …
Movie Election
Election with Matthew Broderick, Reese Witherspoon, and Chris Klein.
This movie had some really hot hooks that kept me in rapt attention. It was a strange type of comedy in that it was subtle, yet effective. I especially enjoyed the cast and could feel the …
Outsourced (movie)
I do not think that I could have heard about the movie Outsourced, had I not read a good movie review about it some years ago. The review made the movie sound so good in fact, that I decided that I was going to watch it online since I …
Paranormal Activity movie
As Paranormal Activity 2 is coming out soon, I thought it was time to sit down and write a review over the first film. Surely everyone by now has been given one opinion or another; this movie is absolutely terrifying and believable or it’s about as scary as an …
X-Men First Class movie
I saw this movie on opening day at around 3:30 pm-ish. The theatre was about half full so I got to enjoy the movie in a pretty nice seat at around the centre of the theatre. I usually sit further back, but this time, my entire vision …
Corpse Bride movie
I think Corpse Bride was a great film. It was very dark and had lots of feeling in it. And it was a tale told in the classic Tim Burton style. I really liked the story and thought it was both very dark, yet very romantic. I really loved the …

Desperate Escape movie
Though made in 2009, Desperate Escape only premiered on the Lifetime Movie Channel in February 2010. Make no mistake this is a B-movie with a standard, much-used plot and not a single surprise within in, unless you’re new to TV and movies. What it does have, however, …

The World’s Fastest Indian, directed by Roger Donaldson is rated PG-13 by the Motion Picture Association of America for brief language, drug use and a sexual reference. The original release date was October 13, 2005 for New Zealand audience. This movie falls in the genre of Adventure/Biography/Comedy/Drama/Sport and stars …
Movie: Nightmare on Elm Street
When it comes to classic horror movies, I can’t imagine making a list of the best without including A Nightmare On Elm Street. Wes Craven gave audiences a whole new kind of killer when he unleashed the charred murderer into the dreams of teens in the mid eighties. …
Shakespeare in Love (romance drama movie)
Back in the late nineties and early 2000s, I remember that one of the most talked about movies was one named “Shakespeare in Love”. I remember even though I was still very young back then, they hype made me curious to watch the movie. However, I finally got to watch …
Aronofsky’s Black Swan (2010 film)
With all the campaigns on the internet and coverage from the press, it was impossible to escape the urge to watch the film. It’s awards season and anyone ignorant not to know what “Black Swan” is must be living in a different planet. I didn’t think this …
The Kingdom (2007)
The strength of “Oil” shows how politics and religion rule the world. Those countries that supply oil versus those who need the use of this most precious commodity reveals to the viewing public why the world is as it is currently.
What you will not see in the news as …

The Sorcerer’s Apprentice 2010 Movie
I don’t know about you, but I love fantasy and sci-fi movies. I just can’t get enough of them. When a new one comes out I’m either first in the theater or renting it as soon as it’s possible. I’ve seen them all, from the …
Journey to the Center of the Earth 3D
Journey to the Center of the Earth was fantastic. This movie is 3D. You are given 3D glasses upon purchasing your ticket. As for the movie, it was quite good. The 3D effects are used well. I believe that they could’ve been used even more than they were, but …
The Fog
I’ve said this before but, when it comes to Horror films, they are either very scary or very dull. Unfortunately for the Fog, it was the latter.
The problem with the Fog is it was just like every other horror film. An evil fog engulfs a small town and ghosts …
The New pornographers Twin Cinemas CD
Thie is a great fun little album that seems to find its way into my Cd player time and time again. The New pornographers are a band, buch like the shins that put out a hppy popish like sound unlike many other bands today. their music fun, and uplifting. …
