Juno was a pretty good movie. It was the best movie I have ever seen, but it was interesting. If you don’t like weird and awkward story lines than this movie is probably not for you. However, I enjoy movies that are a little different and this movie is …
A Midsummer Night’s Dream
I first started reading Shakespeare’s plays when I was about eight years old, in more easy to understand translations. The translation which I had used was “Lamb’s Tales in Shakespeare” so plays such as “A Midsummer Night’s Dream” at the time seemed very interesting to me. Therefore, that is …
The Divergent Series: Insurgent (science fiction adventure movie)
After enjoying the first movie in the Divergent franchise, I was happy to know that there would actually be a sequel. I expected that it might be a lot better than even the first one especially since it would probably have more action and fight scenes. I was also interested …

W. movie
I went to see this film because it looked interesting, I thought it was interesting they would take shots at W eaven before his term had ended. The movie chronicles George W Bush’s life, growing up and eventually becoming president, it is one of those movies where you aren’t …
Movie True Lies
I’m not really a huge Arnold Schwartzenegger fan, but I do love his movie True Lies.

The Thin Red Line movie
A war story by the poetic filmmaker Terrence Malick. He created the visually stunning films Days of Heaven and Badlands back in the 1970s, then he didn’t make a film until his come back with this film more than 20 years later. I don’t think it is as engaging …

White Oleandar
I watched this movie quite a long time ago. Most of the movie didn’t even make sense to me. I thought it was boring and uninteresting. It has Michelle Pfiffer in it and that is one of the reasons I started to watch it. I didn’t like the movie …
Let’s Go Collegiate movie
Let’s Go Collegiate was a movie released in 1941 that is basically a lot of college age nonsense. I tried, but I couldn’t get all that into the fun of this picture. It was okay, but I just didn’t really take to the story and none of …
Chinatown Kid (1977 movie)
When compiling a list of great martial arts movie stars several names are almost always expected to top that list, Bruce Lee is always present, as is Jackie Chan, and the same can likely be said for Jet Li. But, one name that is almost always painfully overlooked is …
blockbuster .com
I actually like Blockbuster a lot more than Netflix because you can return the movies to the store instead of mailing them in and waiting to receive new movies. Not only can you return the movies that were mailed to you to the store, but you can also trade …
12 Angry Men (Remake)
In 1997, someone got the not-so-bright idea to recreate a theatrical classic, 12 Angry Men. The problem for me is that the original production was about as near to perfect as you can get. Headed by Henry Fonda and a legendary cast, this film was dramatic and …
My Big Fat Greek Wedding movie
My Big Fat Greek Wedding is a very funny movie! It will have you laughing through out the entire film. It is about a woman(Tula) that is in a Greek family, and she is somewhat embarrassed about how her family acts(like them roasting a lamb on a …

Hide And Seek
Hide And Seek was shown on my local TV channel and if it’s acting by Robert De Niro, I always make it a point to watch. This movie also sees the little kid, Dakota Fanning (think she had acted with Tom Cruise as well), I give this story 10 …
The war of the worlds movie

Get Christie Love! movie
In 1974, viewers were presented with the very unique movie, Get Christie Love! The main character, a police lieutenant named Christie Love, was played by Teresa Graves, who might actually be remembered for her comedy input as a regular on Laugh-In.
In reality, this movie which did turn into …
Black Snake Moan movie
“Black Snake Moan” is one of the most confusing and pointless movies I have ever tried to watch. I thought it was so pointless and confusing that I never did watch all of the movie at one particular time, but finished watching the movie by watching fragments of it …
Movie One Missed Call
I was really looking forward to watching this movie even though the reviews weren’t favorable. The premise of the movie was that you received a call from yourself telling you how you were going to die. It gave you the exact date and time of when you were going …
2 Guns movie
The story adheres strictly to the clichés of the genre , and this potentially poses a risk for the viewer to be bored. The story revolves around two undercover agents, who under the circumstances must join forces to survive and succeed . It sounds familiar, and I do not …
Om Shanti Om
I recently bought a VCD of Om Shanti Om as i was desperate to see the Shah Rukh starrer on my screen, considering all the hype around the movie, it was not up to the mark but yeah it was not far from it either. The movie started with a …

In The Mouth of Madness Movie
I didn’t think that there would be a movie that would be able to scare me, but this does not apply if that movie is made by the famous director John Carpenter (”Halloween”). In the case I experienced this on me, after I decided to watch his grim film …
Dady’s Little Girls
Daddy’s little girls is one of Tyler Perry’s heartwarming movies, about a loving father who is doing all he can for his three little girls. My husband and i watched it together on the couch. I think he cried as much as i did.
Monty (Idris Elba) went to see …
Tomorrow Never Dies movie
The second appearance of Pierce Brosnan made me confident the James Bond film series was never going to end. Although the creators ran out of Ian Fleming novels and made up the story on their own, it is actually rather thrilling with a lot of breathtaking action sequences and …
The Curse of King Tut’s Tomb
I picked up The Curse of King Tut’s Tomb because it was cheap ($6.44) and because it looked somewhat interesting, if a bit derivative. Derivative is right, this two-part mini-series steals liberally from both the Indiana Jones franchise as well as the Mummy series.
Does the Curse of King …
Doctor Strange, 2016 movie
The Marvel Cinematic Universe continues to expand with “Doctor Strange”. Not only does this movie introduce a new hero and defender of the Earth, but it even manages to expand the scope of the already epic franchise as a whole.

Terminator Salvation (2009)
Terminator 4 had lot of loud noises, cool sound effects and no redeeming quality whatsoever. This movie was one of the worst of 2009. Terminator Salvation, aka Terminator 4 was even more predicable that the third in the series. I am a big fan of Christian Bale, …
