Alpha Dog (R, 2006) movie
Justin Timberlake is of course, the draw for this film. But he’s not really the one who makes the most impact. I liked that he was in it. And for some reason, I felt that it wasn’t too far a stretch from how he really acts …
Assault on Precinct 13, movie (1976)
As a director, John Carpenter has made it no secret how much Westerns have had an influence on his work. His classic films like Escape from New York and They Live have elements and utilize cliches from the Western genre. While his first film was the comedic …
The Simpsons Movie
The Simpsons Movie is the best movie of the summer so far. It is full of hilarious scenes that will keep you laughing to the very end. As usual, Homer is an idiot, and Bart is a bad influence for children. Over all the antics in …
Enter The Dragon Movie
Enter The Dragon is probably my favorite martial arts film of all time. I think that the master Bruce Lee really showed people how it is done in this movie. The story is starts and beautiful China where Bruce Lee practices Kung Fu in the great Shaolin Temple. I just …
You Can’t Run Away From It movie
I’m not sure if I’ve seen You Can’t Run Away From It before or not. It’s vaguely familiar, but not readily in my brain. Of course, it could be the basic story that rings in my head since this is a musical remake of the classic, “It …
Flushed Away movie
Flushed Away is one great movie for me. I like Kate Winslet as an actress and in this cartoon movie she dubbed the voice of the female rat named Sid. I like the movie because I like to learn English more and here in this movie they were using …
Lower City (R, 2005) movie
First and foremost I must say that you should enjoy foreign films (at least to a certain extent) before viewing this movie. Secondly, I should say that if you have seen “City of God” then you will probably enjoy this movie. And third, I must say that …
Ghost World
Watching Ghost World is not quite like watching a chick flick. Although you see American Beauty actress Thora Birch and the sweet and innocent look actress, Scarlett Johansson star. This is kind of an exploration type of movie and I feel that each character in the story has …
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, …
Alexander film
I love films based on historical figures. However, after finally watching the movie Alexander, I have to say I was a bit disappointed.
Based on the life of Alexander the Great, the movie focuses a bit too much on the guy who conquered the known world and not enough on …
Tropic Thunder, Thunderously Funny
If comedy-action movies are your thing, then “Tropic Thunder” is a must-see. If not, I would still suggest checking it out as this movie provides more laughs than I ever expected.
I normally don’t go for the action-adventure movies; however, Jack Black and Ben Stiller have always provided hilarious comedic …
Garfield: Tale of Two Kitties
We got Garfield, Tale of Two Kitties last week and were very impressed. It was a great family movie that had a great mix of action and comedy. I only wish I could have gotten my energetic 2-year-old to watch more of it.
I found myself laughing every few seconds …
A Boy and His Dog Movie
A Post-Apocalyptic film about a boy who communicates telepathically with his dog. Together they set out on an adventure to find food and girls. The film begins very promising, but I really didn’t like the later half at all. At first I found the film funny and interesting on …
The Hangover II Movie (2011)
I just saw the movie the Hangover 2. It is the sequel to the first movie, The Hangover, which stars Bradley Cooper, Zach Galifianakis and Ed Helms. Essentially this movie is about a Bachelor’s party in Thailand gone wrong. As with the last Hangover movie, this time, the …
Rio Bravo movie
Rio Bravo is a wonderful western. It was so good that they repeated it, changing character names and just a few pieces of plot, as El Dorado. Make no mistake about it, though, Rio Bravo is the original and the best. It was magnificent. John …
Movie In her shoes
I have watched the movie ‘In her shoes’. The director is Curtis Hanson. This is the tale of two sisters, whose characteristics are very much different. This is a family-oriented film. The different characters of the two sisters is interesting to watch.
These two sisters are Maggie and Rose. Cameron …
The Mystery of the Hooded Horsemen movie
Tex Ritter starred as Tex Martin in The Mystery of the Hooded Horsemen, a typical singing western for its generation. In this movie, he uses a guitar quite a bit. This movie does indeed have several songs in it.
The drama begins when Tex and his current sidekick …
Indian Jones The Last crusade
Harrison Ford is a very good actor and he portrayed one of my favorite all time charachters Indiana Jones. I watched Indiana Jones the Last Crusade last night. In this movie Sean Connery played Indiana’s father and as always these movies are fast moving comical and interesting.
In …
Movie Aladdin
Set in the City of Agrabah, this story is of a “street-rat” by the name of Aladdin, and his sneaky pet monkey, Abu. Aladdin falls in love with Princess Jasmine, who’s father is the Sultan of Agrabah. A “diamond in the rough”, Aladdin is tricked into entering the cave …
Hancock
After watching the movie “Hancock”, you will understand immediately while Will Smith expressed interest in interpreting this role. “Hancock” is a superhero movie without the superhero clichés. This together with the talent of actors, Charlize Theron and Jason Batman and great action moments, make this movie one of this …
We All Scream for Ice Cream Movie
We All Scream for Ice Cream is easily one of the oddest movies in the Masters of Horror series. This one stars William Forsythe as a clown who drives an ice cream truck. If you think that he is the one who is torturing people, you’d only be partly …
The Warriors
The Warriors with Michael Beck and James Remar.
This classic struggle for survival is one of my all time favorites. The action all occurs at night on the streets of New York City. I think that I enjoyed it so much because I could …
“Hooligans” movie
Football is a predominantly male affair. Fighting pseudo-fans it’s practically the only guy thing. Thus, in theory, for making a film on this subject should take a representative of sex ugly. And what if woman decides to tell us the story of hooligans ? Such is the case, “Hooligans”, …
Evolution Movie
Science Fiction comedy in the same category as Ghostbusters for example. A meteorite hits the earth and brings with it a strange new form of life that threatens to take over the planet, or does it?
There’s not much to say about this. If you liked Ghostbusters, Men in Black …
“White Countess” starring Natasha Richardson
I really enjoyed the 2005 movie “White Countess.” The movie stars Natasha Richardson as Countess Sofia Belinskya and Russian Countess expatriated to Shanghai after the 1917 Russian Revolution. To support herself and her extended family Sofia works as a dance hall girl and sometimes prostitute. Despite her efforts her …
The Toll Collector (2003) Animation
‘The Toll Collector’ is an animation short, really short actually at only 5 minutes. But it is 5 minutes of haunting, poignant beauty and it has stayed on my mind since I watched it. This is a visually dark claymation, with the pallid, ill-looking white faces of …
Movie Wanted
This is another movie that show Angelina Jolie action. I always like her act in movie especially in action movie. Wanted is directed by Timur Bekmambetov, this name sounds not familiar to me. This story of Wanted movie is based on a comic book miniseries by Mark Millar.
The story …
Wild hogs
Whoever decided to cast a “buddy” movie with Tim Allen, John Travolta, Martin Lawrence & William H Macy as the co-starring friends was truely inspired. Sometimes when you have too much talent it can backfire, but these four pulled it off really well.
Scrubs John McGinley has a …
Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix
I viewed Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix on HBO. I found the fifth Harry Potter film to be the darkest of them. Possibly, because of Harry’s general anger in this film.
I actually liked the movie better than the book. I am normally the type …
Playboy Wet & Wild: Bottoms up
I will never forget my 18th birthday when I was finally allowed to see adult movies. I had always wanted to see some hot babes take it all off. And the first ever Playboy video I rented was Playboy’s Wet N Wild: Bottoms Up. I was very excited …
Sicko documentary
Sicko is a documentary movie made by Michael Moore. Sicko covers the healthcare crisis in America and problems with insurance, people being uninsured, doctor and hospital costs and how Americans are being treated by the healthcare system. Sicko focuses more upon insurance than anything. Michael Moore also travels to …
Braveheart
For me, this movie was hard to watch. Brutal battles, blood, gore, and a horrible scene of torture in the end that I couldn’t handle; I just left and returned when it was nearly over. Mel Gibson plays William Wallace, a 13 century Scottish freedom fighter. After the English …
RL Stine’s the Haunting Hour: Don’t Think About It (Movie dvd)
This is a fun scary movie that is available on dvd. It’s about a teenage girl who doesn’t fit in at school and prefers dressing in a goth style, with Halloween her favorite holiday. Her style of dress causes problems at school as the popular girls think she’s weird …
The First Wives Club
This is probably one of the most hilarious movies I’ve ever watched. I just love Goldie Hawn and how she portrays the part of a nonsensical washed out actress. I could almost relate to Beth Midler and her insatiable appetite for food and sarcasm. Now, as for Diane Keaton, …
Richie Rich
Richie Rich was a very good movie that came out in the 1990s. It is based off of the TV show that was a cartoon. But this movie is all about the real life Richie Rich. It it basically the same story as the old cartoon TV show, but much …
The Kingdom (Movie)
This movie stars, jamie foxx and jennifer garner. Its a good story, but very boring. Theres a little TOO much detail in the story for my liking. Im usually a person that likes alot of detail but this was just entirely too much. Some parts just dragged on and …

Blast from the Past
Today was the first time in a couple of years that I’ve seen the movie Blast from the Past. And, you know what, it still is kind of a cute film.
Brendan Fraser is extremely funny in this movie. He plays a man who is born in the 1960s in …
The Langoliers movie
As a young child, one of my scariest memories was made as a result of watching the movie “The Langoliers” one night. I was not able to get the images of giant meatball-like creatures with moving razor sharp teeth out of my head, and often had dreams about them. …
A Night at the Roxbury
I had always heard the movie “A Night at the Roxbury” being mentioned in the media. However, I never had a chance to watch it. In fact, even if I did see it being broadcast on television I might not have watched it because it had a few actors …
Them (R, 2007) movie
Here is yet another movie that made me angry. I was angry because the trailer made me think it was really going to be good. This story basically revolves around a couple that is being chased by several unidentified hooded individuals. They are chased …

The Triangle - Part 1 movie
I’ve always been interested in the Bermuda Triangle so any time there is a decent production relating to it, I like to watch. I make the qualification about being ‘decent’ because there are a lot of very weird shows that are sub-par, so I try to weed those …
Brokeback Mountain movie
After much delay, I finally watched Brokeback Mountain on DVD only to find it really wasn’t worth all the controversy or hype.
Overall, it was an OK movie and a unique concept. Two cowboys working together for a summer fall in love with each other. And, the steamy sex scene …
The Net Movie
This movie offers a rather scary scenario of having your identity controlled - erased and replaced, in fact - by someone else, with the help of the modern-day technology. Angela Bennett (Sandra Bullock), a computer expert, comes into possession of a floppy disk with some valuable and secret info. …
Garbage Pail Kids movie
I am now going to review a horrible movie called Garbage Pail Kids.Before, I get into reviewing,let me give a little explanation why it was made. A big thing in the 80s was a fad involving a series of trading cards targeted to kids called the garbage pail kids.These …
