The Baader-Meinhof Complex movie
I suppose watching The Baader-Meinhof Complex has totally alerted me to appreciate movie making of this genre very much. This is quite a deep movie and I have a certain analysis after watching it. In a world now where there are issues of terrorism and many more, watching …
Volver movie

IMDb
IMDb is the international movies database, and for good reason. The sheer size of the amount of movies covered on this website is simply unsurpassed, I’d say. Every movie has a page, even if all is listed is a simple title. But rest assured, that situation will only persist …
The Marine
Typically, when you get a movie that stars a professional wrestler, you can expect something that is going to go out of its way to show off his muscles, put him in plenty of fight scenes and fill in the background with as many explosions as possible.
The movie, …

The Bounty Hunter (2010)
I have loved Gerard Butler since seeing him do comedy on The Ugly Truth, he can be such a natural jerk and it makes me wonder if he’s really like that in person, just curious because he’s so good at what he does! Anyway, this story sets on Gerard …

Twilight Drive-In Theatre Langley, BC
One of the biggest signs of spring in the Vancouver area of BC is the opening of one of the few remaining drive-in theatres in the province, the Twilight Drive-In in Langley. I have gone to movies there when I was a teen-ager, many years ago now, but as …
Coyote Ugly
I love the sexiness of the leading ladies in the movie, Coyote Ugly. Each time I catches it on DVD I would be like admiring their killer bods and how these women manage to maintain their bodies and wearing hipster and all that and getting away with it.
The storyline …

Taken 2, movie
I enjoyed “Taken” well enough. It wasn’t the most complex piece of cinema, but if you wanted to see Liam Neeson beat up bad guys, it delivered.
It seemed like one of those movies that didn’t really need a sequel. Not everything needs to be turned into a …

Rumor Has It movie
I had doubts when I rented another Jennifer Aniston movie, since she tends to be hit or miss. But, I was very surprised at how funny Rumor Has It was.
Anniston is great as a woman who is on the verge of a breakdown after finding out her family is …
Robocop (1987 movie)
Gracefully working its way unto the silver screen, then to VHS, eventually making its way to DVD…Robocop has affixed itself as one of the greatest movies of all time.
Whether you have seen it before all the way back in 1987 or whether you see it today, none can deny …

Josie and the Pussycats movie
I spent a good chunk of my Saturday morning watching movies on some of the movie channels we have a free trial of. One of them was Josie and the Pussycats; a movie I haven’t seen in a while.
This is a great movie, at least better than you might …

Pleasantville movie
‘Pleasantville’ It’s one of those marvellous old movies which are worth watching a couple of times. The idea behind the plot seems almost like a clichee two teenage siblings: calm and inhibited David and his neurotic sister Jennifer, are transferred by the weird godlike figure …
Two Hours of My Life I’ll Never Get Back
I was really looking forward to seeing this movie, as I believe that the true story of the murder of Elizabeth Short is quite interesting. This movie was SUCH an amazing let down!!!! The focus on this film failed to be the murder of Elizabeth Short, but rather a …
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 …
In the Name of the King: A Dungeon Siege Tale (2008)
In my view, this movie tries too hard to follow in the footsteps of the Lord of the Ring movies and by doing so it manages to sink its own ship. There are so many things wrong with this movie it is a wonder if ever made it to …
Longest Yard movie
Now, this is what i call a real cool movie.Un c this guy Adam Sandler in the first scene of teh movie and what strikes you immediately is that this movie must be a laugh riot coz that is what we usually expect from his movies.No, that isnt the …
Can’t Buy Me Love, movie
Although there are many films out there about the diamond in the rough teenager who just needs a little push to be less awkward, none quite matches the charm of this film with Patrick Dempsey long before he was famous. In fact it has hard to imagine the man …
The Mist movie
I can quite honestly say that “The Mist” was the best horror film I have seen all year.
The acting was spectacular, the casting was great and the script was magical. I was actually quite surprised because in my opinion the horror industry has been lacking in the last …
Lakeview Terrace
I just got done watching the movie Lakeview Terrace and wanted to publish some of my thoughts regarding this movie.
First, Samuel L. Jackson is a heck of an actor. He does a great job in this movie portraying a guy you can’t stand one minute and absolutely can understand …
Nightmare Before Christmas
It’s baaaaack! Tim Burton’s classic movie The Nightmare Before Christmas is back, better than ever- and now in 3-D!
I am a huge fan of Jack “The Pumpkin King” Skellington and the gang- and since the Disney hit was released first in 1993, then re-released out of the vault …
Shrek Forever (movie)
I totally forgot about this Shrek movie until my brother reminded me about it some time ago. It’s the fourth Shrek film, and even though I didn’t get the idea that it was as popular as the other movies, I thought that it was every bit as fun and …
New Moon movie
While every other girl in the world was looking forward to New Moon I wasn’t sure what to expect. I found the first movie in the series Twilight entertaining but not worth all the fuss and the book was simple at best.
So I went in to see New …
Creature From the Black Lagoon
I remember seeing a photo of this creature in a monster magazine and remarking how scary it looked. Well it was not that scary in this classic film. I liked the opening scene in which it explained the Big Bang theory and leading up …

This is a horror movie about a serial killer who meets in a motor vehicle accident, while in the hospital undergoing treatment, he is placed in a CAT scan machine where, while there, an electric storm surges through the machine and transfers the serial killers mind into the computer …
Pieces of April
In “Pieces of April” we see the actress, Kate Holmes with an image of a bad girl who has a conflictual relationship with her family. The story of “Pieces of April” is good but unfortunately in certain moments in the middle of the movie it may lose it’s potential …
Movie The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian
My wife and I recently watched The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian (I will refer to the movie as “Caspian”). I enjoyed the movie, but it was not as entertaining or complex as The Lion, The Witch And The Wardrobe.
In Caspian, the four future kings and queens …
Friday the 13th
The first Friday the 13th movie is the one that few people remember. They forget that Kevin Bacon appeared in the movie, and they forget that Jason Vorhees was merely an afterthought. Most people completely forget that it was actually his mother who was the first killer.
Watching this movie …
Cranberry Christmas
I’m a sap for holiday tradition, and that includes all the animated classics. This year, Ocean Spray bring us a new cartoon with a Christmas theme. Entitled “Cranberry Christmas”, the cartoon is based on a popular book of the same name. What I like about it is …
Cake Eaters movie
Ever since I’ve watched Twilight I’ve been a Kristen Stewart fan. So I decided to find some of her movies and I found this movie Cake Eaters.
The movie is set on a small town wherein the characters are loosely intertwined and how they’re confronting their past up to …
Bruce Almighty (2003)
This is a ludicrous comedy from the outside but a heresy from the inside. Many Christians who are adept with the Biblical principles will definitely not agree with some ideas presented in this movie concerning God and his being. I admit some scenes here are really funny like when …
Maid in Manhattan
I saw the movie Maid in Manhattan again last night and, even though Jennifer Lopez does a somewhat decent job in it, I’m still not overly impressed with it.
The movie reminds me a bit too much of about a dozen other films I’ve seen. Lopez plays a cleaning lady …
Regal Natomas Marketplace 16 Theater Sacramento, CA
Regal Natomas Marketplace 16 is the only theater near my house. Its located right on the boarder of a bad neighborhood. I would never go to this theater at night by myself. There is a rough crowd that hangs around it a night. The theaters always smell really bad, …
