Movies Reviews
Shrek the Third
I watched Shrek and Shrek 2 in DVDs, but for Shrek 3, I deservingly thinks that it’s worthwhile to watch in a movie theatre. So, the ones who watched were me, my boyfriend and my 2 brothers. My sister wasn’t interested, so she did not come.
The movie …

Children of the Corn
Children of the Corn of the corn is a movie that made me become afraid of kids. I really think this movie is horrifying. I really liked the acting in the movie. These kids were really creepy and very evil. I liked their supernatural power. The music also really scared …
Bad Santa
This movie I thought was one of the most absolutly hilarious movies that I have seen in a really long time. Billy Bob Thorton plays a Santa that you would not want your kids to sit in his lap. He is rude, condescending, and a drunk that cusses way …
The Interpreter, movie (2005)

Whats Your Number (2011 Romance Comedy Movie)
I initially ignored the movie “What’s Your Number” because I heard a few bad reviews about it, and I realised that it didn’t get a very good rating. This was even though I’ve always thought that the comedy actress Anna Faris was very funny.
I decided to watch it recently …

Train to Busan is a 2016 zombie apocalypse thriller film from Korea. It stars Gong Yoo, Kim Su-An, Jong Yu Mi and Ma Dong Seok, among others.

The New Adventures of Heidi movie
It’s hard for me to find a Heidi tale that I don’t like. Over the years, I’ve seen a lot of them and most of them have their own unique quality that makes it work. That’s the case with The New Adventures of Heidi from 1978. …
Raising Waylon movie
I saw Raising Waylon for the first time recently and was surprised that I enjoyed it as much as I did. I say that because I’m not really a fan of the movie’s stars, Tom Gibson and Poppy Montgomery, and because it’s pretty predictable from start to finish. …
Unlikely Angel movie
Unlikely Angel is a holiday movie from 1996 which stars Dolly Parton as a rather selfish country music performer (aside from the selfish part, not a big stretch … again) who dies suddenly. Being egotistical, Ruby Diamond can’t enter Heaven without doing a good deed first, so it’s …
Movie, The Imitation Game
I stumbled upon reading in advance about our Philosophy subject and I read something about the Turing Test. That made me think of the movie I just watched. Alan Turing is the main character of the movie The Imitation Game and he is also the same Turing in the Turing …
The Women movie
I have seen this movie when my cousin rented it back in the holidays. It is another chick flick, Sex and The City-ish kind of movie. Well, its my kind of movie. I love watching pretty women who deals with issues of life including marriage, friendship, parenthood and career. This …
There’s Something About Mary movie
This is a 1998 comedy film directed by the Farrelly Brothers and starring Cameron Diaz, Ben Stiller, and Matt Dillon. The movie is technically a romantic comedy but it’s not boring like many of this type, this movie is about Ted (played by Ben Stiller) who falls for Mary …
The Texas Chainsaw Massacre movie
The Texas Chainsaw Massacre is a blood and guts horror film about a group of kids being chased around by a chainsaw wielding, crazy man. There is a plot, yes, but it is thin and not the reason why you should watch this movie. I also want to be …
Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince
The film was absolutely fabulous. I was worried, I won’t lie, that Tom Felton (Draco Malfoy) would not have the acting chops to do this movie given that he’s had so little screen time in the past. I was worried that the “please” on top of the …
Happenstance (R, 2000) movie
When I saw Amelie, I was really really excited to know that there would be another film featuring Audrey Tautou, a brilliant impish actress. Happenstance is very similar to Amelie in that it deals with coincidence, and the complications/ ramifications following. The entire story in Happenstance centers …
“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 …
House Guest movie
“House Guest” was a movie I watched some years ago in my earlier years of high school. I can remember thinking at that time how I could have missed such a movie and wondering whether I should watch it or not since I had never found the African American …
Mr Magorium Magical Emporium Movie
I have to say I was not looking forward to seeing this movie. In fact I made my daughter get The Simpson’s Movie because this movie had gotten really bad reviews. I really do not know what movie they watched. This movie was wonderful. It was like Willy …
Elysium movie
A couple of months ago I watched a trailer of the movie Elysium. My first expressions were «WOW. That is a must-watch movie». It was full of superb special effects, action and some new idea.
And then, the movie came out in the cinemas. I went to the good theatre, …

27 Dresses (Movie)
This is a movie about weddings, which is a topic that I love to watch in movies. Of course with any movie about weddings, there is some kind of conflict having to do with the bride. And that’s definitely the case in this movie. The main character is in …
The Wiz movie
This might be an old movie, but it is probably one of my absolute faaaavorites of all time! I have watched this movie at LEAST once a year since I was born, probably.
For anyone who does not know what the Wiz is, it is essentially the Wizard …
Primeval
There was something missing with this film. I know that it followed lots of formulas about somet kind of big monster lurking in the exotic wilderness of a foreign land. As usual, there is the requisite bunch of diverse “scientists/explorers/writers” (pick one) with the ONE beautiful …
Kung Fu Panda
Kung Fu Panda is a movie about a panda (no surprises there) named Po who aspires to become a kung fu warrior.
Not surprisingly enough, the new blockbuster from DreamWorks, was an enormous sucess. The usual deal from DreamWorks, high quality animation (great details), funky characters, occational gags… …
Movie: Plan 9 from Outer Space
I was the first one up Sunday morning; well, me and my 1-year-old. Since it was too early to do anything without waking people up, I ended up sitting on the couch with my daughter, wrapped in a blanket and watching a movie.
The film I picked was the Ed …

Because I Said So
I watched this story before, Because I Said So, starring one of my most favorite actress, Mandy Moore and the very talented and awesome Diane Keaton.
This is a very good movie story to watch if you are a mother and if you are a daughter. I’m sorry, …
The Exorcist
I am reviewing the movie, The Exorcist, starring Jason Miller. Everyone knows what this movie is about, or regarding, so I’ll try to be brief on the summary. Jason Miller’s character, Damien Karras, is a priest who’s lost his faith. He has more interest in looking …
Robinhood Movie (2010)
I never knew Russell Crowe could emulate or do a better job than Gladiator, and the 2 movies are equally famous for it’s story and the actors and actresses involved. Russell Crowe as Robinhood was quite old, and I had first thought all the characters were too old for …
Movie Fragile
Starring: Calista Flockhart (Amy Nichols), Richard Roxburgh (Doctor Robert), Elena Anaya (Helen Perez), Gemma Jones (Mrs Folder), Yasmin Murphy (Maggie)
This movie is trite and unexciting, despite the appealing storyline behind it. I would think the Japanese and Koreans would have done better with this.
Amy took up a …
DVD UFC II
Royce returns in UFC II to win his second tournament and, although some of the matches are quite good such as Royce vs Pat Smith, this event will be forever known for an overmatched Fred Ettish getting a horrible, one sided beating at the hands of Johnny Rhodes.
Actually, there …
Bride Wars Movie
I love this movie! Not only does it feature my favorite gorgeous actresses Anne Hathaway and Kate Hudson, but the story is really unique and cute and every girl can just relate to this one! However I think guys wouldn’t really enjoy watching this as it’s a total 100% …
American Beauty movie
The movie “American Beauty” is a great film that will definitely become an American classic. Millions of Americans have enjoyed the movie, but my experience with the film is unique.
About five years ago, my friends and I watched this film, and we still watch it to this day. …
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 …
Movie The Hangover
The Hangover was definitely a guy’s comedy. Telling the story of the morning after a friend’s bachelor party, where the 3 groomsmen wake up with no memory of the previous evening, a tiger in the bathroom and a baby in the closet, this movie definitely appeals to the …
House of Wax
House of Wax is a horror movie starring Elisha Cuthbert, Chad Michael Murray, Brian Van Holt and Paris Hilton. The movie is a remake of an old movie with the same title. The movie has the same plot of any horror movie where a group of friends go to …
Hitman, action film by Xavier Gens
The Hitman franchise has been around for 14 years so far. The franchise originally started on the Playstation and then worked its way to last gen consoles. After four games, Fox snagged up the rights to make a movie. Compared to other video game movies this is much better, …
Hairspray
If nothing else, this remake of the 1988 musical is worth watching for John Travolta playing the main character’s mother - yes, *mother*. She is fat, and she dances. Travolta is unrecognizable under layers of latex and a fat suit, when I first saw a photo of him in …

Revolver (2007) is a Guy Ritchie film thats in the Action genre and rated R for violence, language, and nudity.

New X Files Movie
The new X files movie was very surprising to me. It seemed to have a very different concept then any X Files episode and the orginal movie ever had. I enjoyed this movie I thought it had a very spirital message and a positive one. It seems that the …

When I was still pregnant I love watching baby movies and Baby’s Day Out was one of the movies that I saw. I love watching it because even if its somewhat old I still find it very enjoyable. I enjoyed how much the baby was able to do all …
No Reservations
I love it when Catherine Zeta-Jones acts. She is gracing maturely and is truly beautiful no matter what her age is.
In this movie story, she acted alongside Aaron Eckhart and this is a very beautiful story that I suppose would be very popular with loads of chefs …
Vampire Circus, movie (1972)
This entry, we take a look at a recent film from the famed Hammer studios, which was recently involved in the post-Potter Daniel Radcliffe film, The Woman in Black. Their new logo is akin to the logo for Marvel Studios, utilizing their film posters much like Marvel uses …
The Recruit (2003)
I have made some harsh statements as it relates to the acting prowess of Colin Farrell and for that I must say LOL, I got you didn’t I? Even though this movie was a lot better than most of his movies, and he managed to show that he can …
