The Other Sister movie
“The Other Sister” is my favorite movie of all time. The acting in this movie couldn’t get much better.

Twins movie
When it comes to action movies, there are none better than Arnold Schwarzenegger. However, when it comes to comedies, there are few worse.

Running Scared
It’s like a mystery/suspense/thriller type movie with the mob theme thrown in. I honestly did not expect the movie to be as great as I though it was. The first 15 minutes or so, it will look like a cheap, predictable cliche mob flick, but it gets a lot …

David Cronenberg’s remake of the classic 1950s movie with Vincent Price. Jeff Goldblum is the eccentric scientist who accidentally is transformed into a giant fly.
