Fanny & Alexander Movie
For those who ever liked a film by Ingmar Bergman this is a definite must-see. I think perhaps most people choose this film as their first Bergman, and that is a wise decision, because even though the film has all of the trademarks of Bergman’s style, it isn’t as …
Fire Wall
If anyone ever wants to know why I oppose a fourth Indiana Jones film, they should watch the movie Firewall.
Harrison Ford definitely shows his age in this movie. He plays a married man and father of two who must figure out a way to hack into his bank�s security …
Mean Girls movie

I went to see premonition a few days ago at Cineworld Cinemas because it looked like a film that has you on the edge of your seat and because i think Sandra Bullock is a good actress.

I now pronounce you Chuck and Larry
This is Quite possibly the funniest movie I have ever seen. The stereotypes one would expect in a movie like this are there and are (in some places) slightly over done, but they do not take away from the movie overall. Rarely does a hilarious movie succesfully carry a …
So close to life movie
This is a film by Ingmar Bergman and was made in the late 50s when he really had found his cinematic expression to its full potential. The story is about three women who are about the give births to children on a hospital. They talk a lot about their …
Glory Road Movie
I loved the movie, “Glory Road.” I am a huge basketball fan, and this movie was the true story of the first coach to start five black players in the NCAA final game.
Because of the times, the movie had some lines which were no doubt truly spoken at …
My Mom’s New Boyfriend (movie)
I am not usually a fan of the romance comedy genre of film, but when I heard about the plot of this film somewhere a few years ago, I decided that I wanted to watch it. However, I was a little skeptical about how enjoyable I would find it …
Movie Ishtar
When this thing came out in the late 1980’s, it was slammed so roundly by a mass group of film critics that I didn’t even bother to go see it. I did, however, decide to “treat” myself to a cable television presentation of it not long ago …

Day of the Dead (2008)
This not quite-a-remake of George Romero’s classic zombie film is an odd creature. While it tries its hardest to be its own entity, any daring strides toward individuality are often done away with as the film pulls back for the odd, hollow reference back to the original it’s based …
Moving Movie
A man named early is lucky to get a new job, the one he always dreamed about. The only problem is he needs to move to another american state to perform the job, something that is a lot more difficult than he had expected.

Movie : She’s All That (1999)
I have a pretty good and fair deal with my wife as far as movie watching goes. She will watch just about anything with me, which is usually a lot. And every now and then I have to sit through a chick flick type of film with her. Over …
Batman Begins (Movie)
Everyone I knew told me to go see Batman Begins because they thought I would love it. I’m a fan of comic books, and I own nearly every comic book themed movie in the world. Still I could tell from the previews that it was a movie I just …
Red Eye
We recently purchased a copy of Red Eye for 99 cents at the local video store. So, I didn’t think it was going to be that good.
I was definitely wrong. While not as good as other airplane movies, it still was one of the better thrillers I’ve seen.
The main …
Just Another Girl on the I.R.T. (R, 1992) movie
I really didn’t think I’d be watching this movie more than a decade after it was released. And I’m kind of sorry that I did. The girl playing Chantel was attractive and authentic enough. And even the storyline was pretty authentic. I didn’t …
Ever After DVD
I love movies, I like sitting in my den with the fire place on and watching a good movie. I don’t even care if they are old ones. Another of the actresses that I enjoy is Drew Barrymore, I watched a movie with her in it over …
Max Headroom movie

Movie Mirrors
This movie was a movie that could have been awesome. It had an excellent base story line but it just lacked … SOMETHING. I don’t know what exactly it was, but it lacked. I love the big old run down mall that they had to protect every night, I …
The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus (Movie)
I had heard and read a lot about The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus before I watched in on DVD yesterday. I have followed the director Terry Gilliam’s career from his Monty Python days, and have very much admired his somewhat strange and eccentric art and movies. I had also …
Dawn of the Dead (2004)
When I was a youngster, I was not much of a horror movie fan, so I did not see get around to seeing George Romero’s original Dawn of the Dead back in 1978. It has only been since I became an adult that I have grown to appreciate the …
The Last King of Scotland (movie)
The Last King of Scotland was possibly the first movie that I had seen the Scottish actor James McAvoy in where I began to take him seriously. I remember that when I first watched it, I didn’t have a clue what it was going to be about and so …
As Good As It Gets film
“As Good As It Gets” is a 1997 film with Academy Award-winning performances by Jack Nicholson and Helen Hunt. It is more of a character study than a plot-driven film, so be aware of that before buying or renting it. Not much happens in the movie. The …

Big Momma’s House 2
This was by far one of the dumbest movies I have ever had the misfortune of watching. I was made to watch this by a friend and tried to watch it with an open mind, but that was dashed 5 minutes into the movie. Don’t get me wrong, Martin …
Fast Five Movie
I watched Fast Five on regular DVD quality. I do have a Blu-ray player, but I never purchase Blu-ray discs. To me, they are a waste of money as they are more expensive and who knows if the quality is any better. The story is basically about the formation …
Capitalism: A Love Story
“Capitalism: A Love Story” is Michael Moore’s newest documentary. And in true Michael Moore fashion it does not disappoint. Not many movies get a round of applause at the theater, but this one did. This was a great movie. My boyfriend was on the edge …

Kazzam (Movie 1996)
A failed attempt by Shaquille O’Neal to perform as an actor. The only thing Shaquille O’Neal should be doing is working on his basketball game, leave the acting to the professionals. It seems everybody wants a piece of Hollywood. Now, why the feltthe need to cast Shaq as a …
Mike Hammer: Murder Takes All movie
From 1989, Mike Hammer: Murder Takes All stars Stacy Keach in the title role of the famous private eye created by Mickey Spillane. This is somewhat of a weird plot that has Mike Hammer being transported covertly to Las Vegas. One thing leads to another and Hammer …
Hollywood Homicide (2003)
Ok my good people, I guess we asked for it and it was given to us as promised, this is where Hollywood meets police meets Hollywood get it? Me neither, but in essence, this movie is about two police detectives who are not getting enough payment from their regular …
The Unborn (NR, 2003) movie
Ok I really really really tried to watch The Unborn. These kinds of films are typically right up my alley. However, for some reason I got totally turned off by this film. I think it’s because there seem to be so many Asian films wherein …
Franklyn, British film by Gerald McMorrow
The question I asked myself while watching Franklyn on blu-ray was how do these four stories come together? The back of the case suggests that it all comes together at some point but I am not seeing it. Does Franklyn have bull shit written all over it or is …
Happy Feet
While my original plan was to take my 6 year old to see an old standby flick, we changed our minds after viewing the clip for Happy Feet. Even so, I still thought of it as only a great “children’s movie”. Afterwards, I found myself pleasantly surprised …
Movie UP
Brilliant; refreshing; fun for the whole family. Need I say more?
Disney & Pixar Animation Studios have out done themselves yet again. Packed with adventure, GOOD moral values, and family friendly humor, this movie easily captivates one’s imagination. Most importantly, however, not only will the children be entertained, but the …
Date Night Movie (2010)
Every movie Steve Carrell makes I am loving him more and more. It seems he just gets better at what he does best - acting comedic parts that aren’t really supposed to be funny. I know it doesn’t like a complement but he really is a good actor and …
