Veggie Tales: Wonderful Wizard of Ha’s
If there’s any question about the Veggie Tales movie “Wonderful Wizard of Ha’s” and how good it is, I want you to keep this in mind. We picked it up for my daughter through Netflix three weeks ago. She has watched it 2-3 times each day since that date …
Traffickers, Movie
Korean thrillers rarely pull their punches, which can often make them deeply affecting - especially when they centre around some really dark subjects. Unlike popular Chinese and Japanese cinema exports there is typically much more favour for realism in Korean films, that only makes them more shocking.
Traffickers is concerned …

ABD Family’s Original Movie “Cyberbully” (2011 Film)

The Bridge To Terabithia

Movie License to Wed
Although some may label this movie as a Mandy Moore movie; in reality this comedy is all about the actor, Robin Williams. I personally have a soft spot for Robin Williams because he is simply great in whatever he interprets. In this movie, we see him to interpret the …
The Princess Diaries Movie
I can’t believe I fooled myself into watching this for the 3rd or maybe even 4th time. The first time was bearable since it was interesting to get a break from all the “thinking” psychological movies I usually get myself into. It was a simple plot: rag-to-riches kind of …

I watched the movie “Grease” with my daughter this afternoon on DVD.
“Grease” is pretty much a classic musical which stars Olivia Newton John as Sandy and John Travolta as Danny Zuko. This movie was made in 1977. This movie is based on the play but I do think the …
Pleasantville (fantasy comedy drama movie)
After finally being able to watch it, I believe that the movie Pleasantville is one of those that sticks with you for a very long time, not just because it’s interesting but because of what it represents socially in terms of human evolution.

John Fawcett’s 2001 horror / comedy film “Ginger Snaps”
I don’t like horror movies as a rule. “The Sixth Sense” gave me nightmares for weeks, and I can’t even watch trailers of gore films, unless I’m trying to get unhealthy blood adrenalin levels. Therefore, it took my friend a lot of effort to emotionally blackmail me into watch …

A surprisingly interesting film about the genius detective. Since the days of Basil Rathbone there have been few exceptions from the rule of failed Sherlock Holmes films, but this is one of those, much because it doesn’t follow a story written by Conan Doyle in the first place. Instead …
Triloquist (Movie)
