Addam’s Family Values. A Movie
A few months ago I was flipping through the channels in a hotel room and came upon the Addam’s Family Movie. I honestly could not remember seeing it however it appeared that I had. I called my mother and she said that I had seen it a few …

The Love Guru
Maybe I have no sense of humor, but I just did not find this movie funny. My fiance, however, was laughing all the way through. But that’s what I adore about him; he finds the humor in everything. Me, I guess I just don’t. I couldn’t believe the stars …
Gary Busey
I always watch movies and I have many actors to appreciate each time.
Most people would express their admiration to actors who are also admired by many and usually renowned worldwide. But I would like to let people know that I appreciate Mr. Gary Busey who played the role …
Don’t Look Now movie
The self-taught director Nicholas Roeg made the incredible beautiful and mysterious film called Walkabout in the early 1970s, and followed it up with this horrific film with diabolic undertones. It is the story of an english couple played by Julie Christie and Donald Sutherland who’s daughter dies for mysterious …
A Knight’s Tale (2001)
I have always enjoyed great fantasy movies, and one of my favorites is “A Knight’s Tale,” which stars the late, great Heath Ledger as Sir William Thatcher, better known as Sir Ulrich von Lichtenstein of Gelderland. Ledger, who was an incredibly talented actor, was absolutely amazing in this movie. …
Zoom
When the movie Zoom came out, it had two strikes against it in my opinion. First, it was about a bunch of kids with super powers; something that has been done way too many times in my opinion. Secondly, it starred Tim Allen. I like his stand up comedy. …
Scary Movie (2000)
This movie, umm, let me rephrase that, this comedy is a spoof of some of the movies that were released the months before this movie was released. It dares to poke fun at almost every movie no matter the content, if it’s a serious movie or not, nothing movie …
Billy Madison Movie
I just saw the movie Billy Madison again after the longest time. This is one of my Adam Sandler movie favorites because I like slapstick comedy and this has a nice storyline.
This movie is about Billy Madison (Adam Sandler) who is an heir to the big company that …

Around the World in 80 Days
I can’t remember whether or not I was actually interested in this movie when it was advertising to be released in theatres. I remember thinking about it as “the new Jackie Chan movie” and expected that there would be a lot of action and martial arts involved. It didn’t …
Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets
Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets is second installment of the Harry Potter franchise. Most of the main actors are back for the sequel and the good acting is carried over from the first movie. The special effects are also an upgrade from the last one. …
The Maid - A Horror Movie
I have seen the DVD and CD of the movie The Maid when I was in the Philippines, but I did not pay attention to it. It didn’t make big on screen. Because I have never heard any news or promotional tour about the movie.
The …
Brother Bear movie

Extraordinary animated movie considering the mere visual area, but it really doesn’t have anything …
What happens in Las Vegas
Although this is a quite new romantic comedy, I believe it stands a chance to become a classic of its kind. It is funny, witty and intelligent. It is both enetertaining and inspiring at the same time, which is not very common nowadays. Apart from lots of fun, the film …
Made of Honor
I watched the Made of Honor movie with my friends; we were not keen on going for the movie as my sister said it was not that great. Since all of us were bored out our minds, we went for it. The movie was good and ok. It is …
The movie Lilo and Stitch 2: Stitch Has A Glitch

Cheaper By The Dozen 2 Movie
This is the second movie that came out after the first. Cheaper By The Dozen 2 is better than the first. I couldn’t stop laughing. Steve Martin and Bonnie Hunt once again play the Bakers and get themselves and their twelve kids into a ton of trouble when they …

Sex And The City- The Movie (2008)
After all the long anticipation into the final story of the super sucessful show Sex And The City and all the years of talk into making the movie- the final result was more than disappointing.
The show Sex and the City was a real hit. It showed the life of real …

I’ve seen this movie for many times. The leading actor Nicolas Cage is one of favorite. In this story he was married to a lovely wife who is currently pregnant. I like the story because it showed how much he loved his wife. He accidentally in prison because of …
The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 1 (science fiction movie)
I haven’t really been a fan of “The Hunger Games” movies for a very long while. As a matter of fact, while I don’t think they are terrible I’m one of those people who would describe it as being “a tad bit overrated”. However, it was curiosity more than anything …

Harry Potter and The Deathly Hallows: Part 1 (2010 Movie)
This movie opened today, and it was a huge disappointment for me just as I had expected. The past Harry Potter movies were already quite disappointing as it didn’t stick to the book and I honestly think white lies were made as to who did this and who did …

A twisted tale of a strange man who is on a ridiculous mission. Joe is the topic of a talk radio show, how he got there is simply this, he was found by the producer after he was being bullied by hostile people and was then taken into the …
Charlie St. Cloud Movie
Zac Efron have totally leveled up as he portrayed the role of Charlie St. Cloud in the 2010 movie with the same title, “Charlie St. Cloud”. His portrayal of the role was way too far from the teenage High School Musical, Wild Cats Basketball Captain star.
Directed by Burr Steers …
E.T.: The Extra-Terrestrial movie
The film that touched the world is how Steven Spielberg would describe his work, and for a good cause. People all over the world has been utterly spellbound by the story of a stranded alien who befriends a human toddler. I cannot remember how many times I …
How To Lose A Guy In 10 Days

Movie: Biloxi Blues
I am not a huge Matthew Broderick fan but I ended up watching one of his movies last night; Biloxi Blues; mostly because I was in the mood for a good war movie.
Unfortunately for me, this film just wasn’t that good.
I loved Christopher Walken in this movie as the …

Love Comes Softly
‘Love Comes Softly’ is the first of a series of movies based on books by Janette Oke, a popular Christian author. Janette Oke writes romance, and romance is considered to be a ‘women’s genre’. However, I wouldn’t call this movie a ‘women’s movie.’ I watched it together with my …
Beast Wars: Transformers - The Complete Third Season Set
The complete third season of Beast Wars: Transformers on DVD is a letdown. It’s not the fault of the picture or sound quality on the DVD set, although the amount of “extras” is very disappointing, but it’s the episodes that are the real problem. Unlike season two, the scripts …
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 …
Mulholland Falls
OK, maybe it’s because I’m not a huge Nick Nolte fan but I just can’t seem to get the movie Mulholland Falls. When it first came out, it looked entertaining. I like thrillers that make me think and thought this film would fit that category. And, having some A-list …
Rango (computer animated movie)
It took me years to watch the animated movie “Rango” even though some of my favourite actors did some of the voice acting. The main reason why it took so long too was that it seemed to have an “average” rating or “slightly above average” rating from people who watched …
Spirited Away
I love animation movie. I just saw recommendations on this one and I decided to watch it on sidereel.
It’s an animation movie by Hayao Miyazaki. It is about a little girl named Chihiro, having to move to another city with her parents. On the way of …
BATMAN (NEW)
This is not your standard cartoon mind Batman movie! I am not sure how children will react to this DVD. The Newest Batman movie, the one that came out only yesterday, Oct 18, 2005, on DVD, is an adult film to me. That should be of high interest to …

Solomon and Sheba movie
It’s amazing how many old films I’ve seen lately, including this movie, Solomon and Sheba. Actually, I want I think about most is that my shepherd-collie was named after Solomon by my sister, so when I cam across this movie, I decided to give it a watch. …
