The Nice Guys (2016 Buddy-Comedy Film)
I am not really a huge fan of buddy-comedy movies. I particularly didn’t enjoy 21 Jump Street that I didn’t bother to check out its sequel. However, I am in a real marathon since falling in love with films recently. I have seen most of the “must-see” movies this year …
The Hangover Part 2: Movie
The Hangover: Part 2 is a movie I, as so many others, have anticipated since its prior film. I have to say that I wasn’t disappointed as I was greeted with laugh after laugh with its comedic brilliance.
I have to say that I liked the fact that it was …
Princess Bride (1987 movie)
A fairy tale movie in every sense. This story is told to a young Fred Savage by his grandfather, Pater Falk. In a fairy tale land with fairy tale characters, it brings to life a masterpiece that is loved to this very day. The story is about a fair …
The Ugly Truth movie

Final Fantasy VII Advent Children
Final Fantasy is always famous for its in-game cg movie, but can we really expect it to be a great movie if it’s only a full time in-game cg without gameplay? Yes, Final Fantasy VII proved that. Final Fantasy VII Advent Children is the second cg movie done …
Batman The Dark Knight 2008 Movie
Nowadays, saying the name Batman actually brings up enjoyable memories. Memories of the older movies that I enjoyed and the newer movies that reinvented it. Forgetting about the failures in-between. The Dark Knight was released in 2008 and featured Batman’s worst enemy. The Joker himself. But with all the …
Star Trek 2009
I just watched the new Star Trek film last night and was blown away at how good it really was. I am a Star Trek fan, although not of the hardcore trekkie variety, and I was a bit scepticle at first about the franchise being rebooted with an all …
Mr. Brooks
I actually was so scared when I watch this movie. It seems like there could be a real story like this out there, and that made me so scared.
This movie is about Mr. Brooks, who is a successful businessman, having a family and a wife. He looks …
Buddy
This is truly a good movie for the whole family. It has quite a few animals in it and it is overall a good movie. The acting in it is good and the story is good. Overall I really liked this movie. I enjoy watching this with my sister …
Bolt movie
If you’re looking for a fun, entertaining way to spend an hour and a half, check out Bolt. It is one of the Disney delights that has everything you could want from an animated feature such as a clever story, lovable characters and a different kind of artistry. I …
The Insider
I thought The Insider was a great movie. This movie was very exciting and interesting. It shows how dangerous being an insider with info can be. This is a story about a man who is an insider at the Tobacco industry. He works for the Tobacco industry, but he knows …
Bridge to Terabithia
I watched Bridge to Terabithia ready to get bored and be repulsed with the little knowledge I have about the film. Thanks to false advertising (equivalent to the preview showing the CGI effects), my impression on the film beforehand was that it was going to be another-kiddy-fantasy knock-off.
Still, I …
Mystery Science Theater 3000, movie (1995)
Influential films and programmes come in all shapes and sizes, ones that inspire you to go out and make videos yourself. I find there are three categories of influential media: first are the ones that you’re told changed how the media industry works, like —˜Citizen Kane’ or —˜Birth or …
Be Kind Rewind movie
The title and cover looked kind of cheesy to me, and so I guess that I was a little reluctant to watch it. I thought that it was going to have poor acting, bad visual effects, and a lame storyline. And it did, but it was absolutely hilarious.
Jack Black …
Richie Rich
“Richie Rich” is one of the most known movies for the actor, Macaulay Culkin but his acting skills in this movie are in no way comparable to the “Home Alone” movies. Culkin has been nominated for the Razzie Awards for his interpretation in this movie.
I recently watched this movie …

What do you do if aliens attack the United States? You call the men in Black. Men in Black is a movie starring Will Smith, where Will Smith is one of the men in Black who is trying to save the world against the attack of aliens. The movie …
Movie Car Wash
I like to watch movies from the past because it’s a way for me to step into another era, get lost there, walk around and leave with a dialect and mind set unlike what’s heard these days. Sometimes I become nostalgic of the 70’s, even though I wasn’t born …
Big Fat Liar (2002)
Big Fat Liar, directed by Shawn Levy is rated PG by the Motion Picture Association of America for some language. The original release date was February 8, 2002 for United States audience.

Amadeus (1984)
One thing I admire about some movies, they capture the inner thoughts and sensibilities of people. And this is one of those movies. It centers to the jealousy of a palace composer, Antonio Salieri (played by F. Murray Abraham) against one of the world�s greatest composers and …
Breathless: A Film by Jean Luc Godard (1960)
I first had a snippet view of Breathless when it was aired in TV monde. I was rather clueless of what the film was about but admittedly I was drawn to the whimsical quality of the video. Even in stark black and white, Jean Seberg was a …

The Puppet Masters
The Puppet Masters is one of those movies that you have to laugh at. And laugh at quite a bit because not only is the plot totally far fetched, but the acting and script and production are so completely awful, the movie is little more than a joke! The …
The Remains of the Day
I am so glad I have found this treasure of a movie. A forgotten treasure, unfortunately; I have never heard of it before, neither have I heard other people mention it. I hope this review will help to draw much deserved attention to this thoughtful, well-acted, well-paced production. I …

3:10 to Yuma (Original-1957)
With the removie of due out on video any day I thought I’d prepare by watching and reviewing the original movie done fifty years ago. “3:10 to Yuma” was a Columbia Picture, shot in black and white, something I really like, and lasting 91 minutes, also something I like. …
17 Again movie
WHen I saw the movie “17 Again” advertising earlier on this year, I had no intention of watching it for several reasons. The main one was because the lead actor was supposed to be the Disney actor Zac Effron who is famous for movies such as High School Musical …
On Her Majesty’s Secret Service
On Her Majesty’s Secret Service with George Lazenby, Diana Rigg, and Telly Savalas.

Pearl Harbor movie
I won’t be giving much plot info in this review, because that is easily accessible on Wikipedia or something. To start, I needed to state that I do not like romance movies in any way. I am more of an action movie type of gal, but I still …
50 First Dates
I think this is one of the sweetest romantic comedies out there. I love Adam Sandler in this movie and have thought it was a classic movie since it came out. I tend to watch it every time I find it on the TV. I have it either on …
Walk the Line movie
I can honestly say that I have watched “Walk the Line” on several occasions, probably more than my husband cares to count. I have always liked movies based on the lives of real people and “Walk the Line” is based on the life of late country singer Johnny …

Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince
It’s really a shame that I never had a film of Harry Potter with the status of a perfect movie. Each story is so strong, before or after you have never truly inclusive workplace. Of course, the three-ACT-structure can be used, but no information or knowledge to come, but …

Movie: “Bride Wars”

A Clockwork Orange (movie)

Movie Open Water
Open Water was one of the worst movies I have ever seen. When I first started the movie, I thought, “Oh, well maybe this is one of those movies that has a good storyline, but just a low budget”. But, I guess I was wrong. It …
Village of the Damned
It had been ages since I saw the classic movie Village of the Damned. So, when it came on one of the movie channels over the weekend, I had to sit down and watch it again.
Somehow, it wasn’t as scary as I remembered it.
Even though it’s really never explained …
