The WaterBoy
The WaterBoy is a great Adam Sandler film! I loved this movie the very day I saw it in the theater. It is a great movie and one of the best ever made in my view. I think this movie will last through the ages and will make families laugh …
Twilight Drive-In Theatre Langley, BC
One of the biggest signs of spring in the Vancouver area of BC is the opening of one of the few remaining drive-in theatres in the province, the Twilight Drive-In in Langley. I have gone to movies there when I was a teen-ager, many years ago now, but as …
Golmaal (movie) July, 2006
The movie, Golmaal released on 14th July 2006. It is a really hilarious movie. It has a punch line Fun Unlimited, and well this movie is really fun unlimited, of course without brains. There is no proper plot is this film but the film works for its funny witty …
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 …
Graduation Day
I don’t remember much about 1981 (I would have only been about 6) but, if the movie Graduation Day is any indication, I don’t think it was a year where there were a lot of good movies.
The film advertises itself as a thriller but it was more of a …
This Christmas movie
I really wish African American films would get better than this. This film was such a rip-off of “Soul Food” that it is not even funny. The sisters fighting the youngest one dating an “intelligent thug”, legal troubles, selling Big Mama/Ma’Dere’s property the list just …
Avatar: The Last Airbender (Movie)
I was greatly disappointed in this movie because of the fact that the movie was not very close to the series that was shown on Nickelodeon. Yes, there were the main characters that were supposed to be there but the truth is that if you’ve never seen the cartoon …
Movie: “Stand By Me” (1986)
This movie is based on the novella “The Body” by Stephen King. I was very happy to see that, for once, the movie closely followed the original story; and actually did it justice.
It’s 1960 in the fictional town of Castle Rock, Maine; and a boy named Ray Brower has …
The Man from Earth - 2007 - by Jerome Bixby
This is a truly a great film from start to finish. If you like fast action movies, this is not for you, it takes place in a two room studio and the drama comes from the sharp dialogue rather than the scenery.
The title does not provide …

Star Trek 2009 movie
Here’s the deal. I am a devout lover of the original Star Trek TV series. I loved the movies that followed. Then I enjoyed most of the series spin offs that followed; not all, but most. Then in 2009, along came this new Star Trek, …

Gorillas in the Mist: The Story of Dian Fossey (1988 Film)
The 1988 film starring Sigourney Weaver called “Gorillas in the Mist: The Story of Dian Fossey” was something that surprised me. Normally, I am not one to really enjoy films such as these, but this film changed my mine towards movies that capture the real life events of people …
Away We Go (2009 Movie)
Away We Go is based on what I thought was a cute idea, so I really wanted to go see it. I missed it in the theatres though, because my friends wanted to see other things. I’m pleased that I managed to see it even though I didn’t get …

Dracula: Dead and Loving it
I’m a huge fan of Mel Brooks movies, so when I got a chance to see the film “Dracula Dead and Loving it” again, I had to take it.
As far as his movies are concerned, this isn’t going to rank as high as other films like Blazing Saddles or …
Honey movie starred by Jessica Alba

Movie: “The Road to El Dorado” (2000)
From the beginning, I was impressed with Dreamworks and their beautifully animated feature films. “The Road to El Dorado” is no exception, with its lively musical score, all-start voice cast, and enchanting animation.
It’s Spain in the year 1519; Miguel (Kenneth Branagh) and Tulio (Kevin Kline), thieves and con artists, …
People Are Funny movie
In 1946, the motion picture People Are Funny was released. If the name sounds familiar, that’s because it went on to become a successful TV show. In fact, that host, Art Linkletter, appears as himself in the movie.
In a sense, the movie provides a background for the …
House of Wax
House of Wax with Chad Michael Murray, Elisha Cuthbert, and Paris Hilton.
I have to be honest. I watched this movie in the hopes of seeing nude scenes with Paris Hilton. Well, it did not happen and the rest of the movie had to stand …

Tim Burton, who directed the cult hit The Nightmare Before Christmas also directed Corpse Bride in 2005. He used a similar style in both movies. Each movie uses puppet animation, and both movies are musicals. The two pictures are very similar in tone and style, with a dark …
Movie The Saint
I must admit that “The Saint” is one of those movies that I keep watching and watching. I truly enjoy it every time I see it. I think the most interesting aspect of this movie is the right mixture between action and romance together with great work from the …
Requiem For A Dream movie
Requiem For A Dream is another weird film you watch late at night and then try to figure out what really happened later on. I really like this movie because it is so sorted and twisted. You just can’t l really understand what would drive people to be so …
The Secret - The Movie
I stumbled upon this website “by chance” and found a wonderful, life-changing (yes, at least for me) movie available either as a download ($4.95) or as a DVD ($29.95) that can be ordered. After viewing the impressive trailer, I ordered the DVD and anxiously waited for “the secret” to …

Old School (starring Luke Wilson, Vince Vaughn and Will Ferrell)
Bear with me, because I have to type these 3 names because they are amazing. I watched Old School (starring Luke Wilson, Vince Vaughn and Will Ferrell) the other day and it was super hilarious. There can never be a movie close to it, except for movies starring …
Walk the Line
Walk the Line with Joaquin Phoenix and Reese Witherspoon.
Why make a movie based upon the rotten life of Johnny Cash? Another entertainer corrupted by rapid success hits rock bottom and then pulls out a turnaround is no big deal. Cash with his …
Nightmare on Elm Street 3 Dream Warriors Movie
I would not necessarily call myself a die hard slasher movie fanatic, but it is safe to say I love me some Freddy Kreuger. Of all the Nightmare on Elm Street movies I have seen, and believe me I have seen them at least three lifetimes over, I would have …
Babylon 5: In the beginning Movie

Carnage comedy movie
“Carnage” is a 2011 comedy, arthouse type film that is actually based off of a play. I saw the trailer at my local independent films theater, and it definitely looked like something that interested me. After watching it last night, I must say, I was not disappointed! It may …

Hostel (movie)
When we started watching the movie Hostel last night, we thought we were going to get a good thriller. What we got was a bad porn film pretending to be a scary movie.
The movie, which is supposed to be about three Americans traveling in Europe who end up getting …
Shutter (R, 2004) movie
I was under the impression that this film was very much like all the other PG-13 “Ringu” type films. In many ways it most certainly is. However, this film (which I believe takes place in Thailand) was quite suspenseful and intriguing. The movie takes off …
The movie Why Did I Get Married
I like Tyler Perry’s plays and his movies. This one was no different. THis movie is about what can happen to a relationship when it is not built on the right things. IT shows what can happen when couples start to take each other for granite and start to …
That Girl - Season Three DVD set
That Girl’s Season Three DVD set is the least packed of the first three sets in terms of bonus material. Shout Factory has kept the same packaging theme and style as the others. It’s colorful and features the famous silhouette of Marlo Thomas as That Girl that …
Bloodsport (movie )
While I like some action movies, I generally do not like those that include the actors Jean-Claude Van Damme and Steven Segal since I have noticed that while these movies are usually jam packed with action scenes, they also usually have the same cliché characters and these action movies …
Movie: The Last House on the Left (1972)

After reading about the original …

Parents movie
Parents is a very old scary movie. But by todays standards it’s looked upon as a comedy instead of a horror movie. It’s a very dark yet funny movie. I guess that is why it’s called a dark comedy. But when I watched this film as a kid, I thought …
Movie: Parenthood
I ended up coming across a somewhat older movie last night; Parenthood. I’ve seen this film before. But, it had been a long time so I thought I would take the time to watch it.
