An American Haunting Movie
I don’t if anyone has seen the movie the An American Haunting but, if you have then either A. you were confused as I was or B. fell a sleep! I did both these options not because I wanted to only for the reason the movie seemed to just …
Movie Bruno
Sachon Baron Cohen’s highly anticipated–highly controversial–new film “Bruno” follows the same vein as the 2006 hit “Borat.” Written by both Cohen and Anthony Hines, the movie relies entirely on its ability to shock its audience into laughter. For me, this was successful.
The movie is based on Cohen’s alternative personality …
Re-Animator movie
The cult favorite among many people is a very gore-filled comedy about a young medicine student who gets involved in the most horrific way of making dead bodies come back to life. The film is very bizarre and the violence just seem to pop out of nowhere, just like …
The Town Movie (2010)
There were a lot of action flicks at the theatre and they featured this one; we were late for Bruce Willis’ movie Red so we watched this one instead but I was so surprised to find myself enjoying this. It’s a simple action movie which features Ben Affleck, …

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 …

Yes Man movie
I took the time to watch the Jim Carrey movie Yes Man even though I had some reservations about it. I don’t mind him as an actor but some of his films are a bit too much for me.
However, I will admit the movie was much better than expected.
Carrey …
Project X movie
When I saw Matthew Broderick as the leading actor, I naturally assumed the movie Project X would be a comedy. I was wrong. However, as far as dramas are concerned, I have to say this is one of the better movies I’ve seen.
Playing an airman that has a personality …

Wild Hogs
This movie, which features Tim Allen, John Travolta, and Martin Lawrence, was very popular in the theatres, which was part of why I decided to go see it.
The trailers looked okay, not particularly great but I’ve never really believed in picking movies based on trailers anyway.
The story goes: four …

The Orphanage (R, 2007) movie
Belen Rueda stars as Laura in this weird, yet spooky little film. The synopsis on Netflix seemed a little more ominous than the actual film. Anyway, I was a bit confused at first as to what was going on. But once I realized …
The Hangover movie
Though it contains crude humor at times, The Hangover is one of the funniest movies I have seen in a long time. The only bad thing I have to say about this movie is that the storyline did not seem to flow very well at a couple points in …

Push
I think that Push the movie is not that bad but not that great either. Honestly speaking, it has some good and bad moments. Child actress Dakota Fanning is charming as always but I find that her role could have been better.
Maybe because this is kind …
The Hitcher movie
The Hitcher is about a young man who travels through the american desert and has the bad luck of picking up a psychopathic hitcher.

Richard Scarry Videos

For instance, I love watching with my little cousin the ones where …
Evan Almighty
This is an amazingly respectful movie on a spiritual theme - respectful to God and faith. The title clearly hints on Bruce Almighty that had come out in 2003, but it is not a sequel; just a similar story. The similarity is made even closer with the same actor, …
Ice Age 2 movie

Envy (2004)

The Losers movie
