Bedtime Stories movie
I just watched the movie Bedtime Stories with my boyfriend. This movie was such a great funny family movie. This movie had Adam Sandler in it, which made it very watchable. It was about a janitor named Skeeter that could not move up in …
Meatballs
This movie was a perfect vehicle for Bill Murray, in the same sense as Caddyshack and What About Bob? Were. The only difference between those two films and Meatballs is that Meatballs had him in a more serious role, surrounded by goofballs who take up where Murray would have …
Stephen King’s Rose Red
Watching a Stephen King movie or television show is always a little difficult. The man has a serious talent when it comes to spinning tales that keep the reader riveted and turning the pages. However when those tales hit the big or little screen there seems to …
Blockbuster Online Rentals
Recently, I tried out Blockbuster’s Online Rentals, and it was an interesting experience.

In my opinion, this is Jim Carrey’s best movie. This is one that never fails to crack me up. When Jim Carrey’s character who is a workaholic lawyer is forced to tell the truth for a whole day after his son makes a birthday wish that his …

The Avengers Movie
Captain America . Thor. Iron Man . Hulk. These are characters that I grew up with and whose films I had fun with and I have always looked forward to. What happens when all these characters fall into one and the same mixture? A true epic! Marvel’s production “The …
Scent of a Woman
This is one of Hollywood’s classic movies which tackles a very difficult argument about living life to the full and suicides. What I really like about this movie is Al Pacino excellent performance of the role Lieutenant Colonel Frank Slade. It is no doubt that he won the Oscar …
The Day After Tomorrow
This is one timely movie. Global warming is an issue that everybody should be familiar with and something that our world leaders should address. I saw the movie mainly because of Jake Gyllenhaal who I think is one talented and good-looking actor. But I was surprised that I actually …
Idiocracy
Idiocracy is one of my favorite movies. It’s the story about an average ‘joe’ who gets chosen to participate in a military experiment. He was supposed to be cryogenically frozen for 1 year, but something goes wrong and he wakes up 500 years later. To his suprise society hasn’t …

I finally got a chance to watch one of the two Mel Brooks movies I haven’t seen before; Silent Movie (the other one I haven’t seen is High Anxiety). I saw it was available on my Netflix player and took advantage of the service.
This was a great movie.
The film, …
Yaadein (movie), 2001
The yaadein (remembrance) of the film Yaadein in perhaps no longer in any of our mind apart from its lovely songs and charming promotional advertisements (Lol). This movie released in 2001 and was directed by Subhash Ghai. I remember how lovely the promotional advertisement of the film was and …
Koizora (Sky of Love)
Koizora (Sky of Love) is the portrayal of unrealistic youthful love. What started as a sweet and innocent relationship between two Japanese high school students ends up in a chaos of conflicts only meant to happen in movies. Now, this negative perspective only occurs since the movie is …
Pan’s Labyrinth (R, 2006) movie
What a dark and magical film this is. I had heard things about this movie. And as usual, I waited until the Oscar hype had died down before venturing out and renting it. I am certainly glad I did. This story, placed in 1944 revolves …

Miracle movie
In another review for the made-for-TV movie, “Miracle on Ice”, I said I don’t like hockey, and the truth is that I don’t. Yet, over a decade later, I still love the story of the 1980 USA Olympic hockey team and how they marched their way towards gold, …
Movie Wednesday
Exceptionally good movie that is all I want to say about this one. The debutant director, Neeraj Pandey did very good job by presenting such a thoughtful movie to the Indian film industry. Keeping in mind that this is his first movie, his efforts should be applauded. Everything was …
Rush Hour 2
I am reviewing the movie, Rush Hour 2 starring Jackie Chan and Chris Tucker. Chris plays Carter, a loudmouth, no nonsense, comedic cop. Jackie plays Lee, a hardworking, serious, dedicated detective from Hong Kong. The second movie starts out with the two actors enjoying some …
Flags of Our Fathers
“Flags of Our Fathers” was a good film.
Story: Very interesting. My wife constantly said, “I had no idea” at the variously elements that you learn throughout the story.
Acting: Ryan Phillipe will have a great career if he keeps picking movies like this. I am concerned for the Native …

The Age of Adaline (2015) - Movie
I found out about The Age of Adaline while scrolling through an article cataloguing new 2015 movie releases. I never saw the trailer but I decided to see this movie because I recognized the actress on the movie poster. I know Blake Lively from the TV show Gossip Girl and …
Ice Age: Continental Drift movie
To be perfectly honest, I was not expecting the fourth Ice Age movie to be any good at all. The movie actually pleasantly surprised me by exceeding my expectations. Needless to say, Manny, Sid, Diego, and Scrat are just as funny as they were the first three times.
The …

LAST HOLIDAY WITH QUEEN LATIVA DVD
I just saw the DVD of Last Holiday with Queen Lativa, and I have to say it is just a ‘make you feel great!’ movie! I cannot imagine anyone not totally enjoying this DVD! I even bought one for my friend who lives quite far away from my County.
This …
The Warriors
Even if you’ve never the Warriors, I’m sure you remember this line. “Warriors, come out and play.” Right? WIth the guy clinking the bottles together. I love it! It’s based in a near future new york where gangs have taken over. Though based in the future, it’s not quite …

The Great Gatsby movie
No offense to F. Scott Fitzgerald, but The Great Gatsby bored me as a book, and it left me cold as a movie, too. I just never got into it. The only reason I went to see the film was because Robert Redford starred as Jay Gatsby. …
X-Men Origins Wolverine
I was eagerly looking forward to X-Men Origins: Wolverine. After watching it, I have mixed feelings. Oh, it was exciting, and visually spectacular, and the characters were all really interesting. It was nice to see so many new mutants with so many new powers. I liked that …
The In-Laws (2003)
This movie is yet another disgrace of a movie, even though it stars some very decent actors, the movie just did not live up to the hype that was created around it and once again, we have a hit and miss coming out of the studios of the fames …
Drowning Mona
Drowning Mona with Neve Campbell, Casey Affleck, Bette Midler, Danny DeVito, Will Ferrell, and Jamie Lee Curtis.
This movie is a perfect example of dry humor. Danny DeVito delivers his cynical lines in his trademark manner. Curtis is her usual sexy self as the waitress had …
And The Little Dog Laughed - Garrick Theatre
And I laughed too. A lot.
This a surprising, fun, funny, touching play. It is a bitingly satirical look at Hollywood stardom. That makes it sound somehow predictable and dull - but I assure you it is far better than the synopsis.
It stars Rupert Friend as Mitchell, a Hollywood actor …
Sleepless in Seatle (movie)
One of my favorite movies starred Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan in Sleepless in Seattle. My son owns a copy of this movie and every time that it comes on TV I find myself surfing channels and settling on this delightful movie.

Open Season movie
Although this is a children’s movie I loved it. Ashton Kutcher and Martin Lawrence play in it and they do an amazing job in the movie and do an amazing job acting together in it. I really laughed at some of the parts. This one of my favorite children’s …

It took me a couple of times to finally watch this movie the whole way through. Overall it was kind of boring but a decent movie. You need to watch the movie the whole way through because the ending is what made the movie a little better in my …
