Petals in The Wind (Lifetime movie)
I was a huge fan of VC Andrews’ Dollanganger book series, especially a little after I read them as a teenager. While I loved Flowers in the Attic, I thought that Petals in the Wind rivalled it in drama, sensuality and the taboo. Therefore, you can imagine my excitement …
The Changeling movie
“The Changeling,” starring the brilliant George C. Scott, is a ghost story filmed in the 1980s, and the scariest one despite its age. Unlike many contemporary horror movies that rely on blood and gore, “The Changeling” uses more subtle ways, which work much better. The creators of this movie …
The Taking of Pelham 1 2 3
I had been waiting for The Taking of Pelham 1 2 3 to come out in DVD, because I love any movie that Denzel Washington does, and I had heard that this remake was excellent and spell-binding. I had also heard that John Travolta played a complicated, evil character, …

Death of a Ghost Hunter
One of the movies we ended up watching this past weekend was one called “Death of a Ghost Hunter.” My wife and I like the television series “Ghost Hunters” and I figured this movie would be close to that in terms of plot and would be halfway interesting.
I was …
Waitress
Waitress is a very good movie, and when I watched it, I enjoyed it. This is a movie about drama, and about people. How different characters in this life makes an impact on a pie-maker, acted by Keri Russell. She played the character Jenna.
Jenna wanted to …
The Quiet Earth Movie
One morning an ordinary man wakes up and realizes he is the only alive on earth. Almost the only one, at least.
A production from New Zeeland from the same director who did the studid sequel to Under Siege with Steven Seagal, and that can be noticed here. This film …
Netflix
My fiance and I recently decided to sign up for Netflix. As you may know, it is a DVD rental service. You pick out which DVDs you want from the website (there is a massive list), and they send them to you. The number they send …
Movie The love guru
This was an overall alright movie I thought. I just didn’t care for it all that much. I think it was the type of movie it was. I think it could have been a lot of better especially with the actors that were in it. Jessica Alba, Mike Myers …
Movie Hair Spray
Some musicals are entertaining to watch and may even be funny. In the case of the movie Hair Spray, you also have a movie that is very fun to watch.
I’m not sure which was more interesting, watching John Travolta dancing and singing in a fat suit and high heels …
Half Nelson Movie
Half Nelson is one of those movie that you absolutely have to watch more than once just because you can never get all the details and all the meaning from the first time. There is not a single false movie in the movie, there isn’t a single acting moment …
Fame (1980)
A TV musical makes it debut on the silver screen and makes you want to get up and dance along. Not many movies in my eyes can make the leap from TV to cinema, but this movie along with a few others have managed to do so and still …
The Wedding Date movie
A low budget movie turns out sophisticatedly neat. Starring Debra Messing (of Will and Grace) as Katherine, a New Yorker, looking for a for-hire-date that she could bring to London for her half sister’s wedding.
A light kind of story full of cinematographically neat shots at perfectly chosen places at …
Movie Secrets of the summer house
I watched this on Lifetime Movie Network a few weeks ago. I was surprised at how good it was. I didn’t expect for it to be that good but it was. I kept seeing it previewed on lifetime so I finally watched it one day when I caught it …

The Ballad of Jack and Rose
Before last year I had ever heard of this film. In fact, when I first saw the title of it on the televsion guide I had mistaken it for a romance movie which I think might have been set in the mid nineteenth century. However, when I watched the …
Mother knows Best movie (1997)
This movie should not be confused with another film that was released in the late nineteen twenties. I actually saw this film on Lifetime some time ago and heard it was based on a true story even though I’m not completely sure how true that is. Nevertheless, I’ve read …

Did You Hear About the Morgans? movie
Did You Hear About the Morgans? isn’t much of a stretch for Hugh Grant. He just played himself, a man who cheated on his significant other. I wasn’t impressed with him at all. He talked at, not to, Sarah Jessica Parker much of the time. …
Don’t Breathe - Horror Movie (2016)
When it comes to horror movies, I’ve been disappointed by the garbage churned out over the past decade. Most horror movies draw up on the cliches that were once innovative at the start of the decade. However, Don’t Breathe stands out for all the right reasons. It’s definitely a scary …
Film “Grownups” (2010)
I really have a mixed opinion on this movie. If you like more than 1 other Adam Sandler movie or any Kevin James film you’ll like this. If you thought Kevin James was funny in that mall cop movie this movie is your style and you will …
Incrediable Hulk 2008
I saw the new Incredible Hulk. I must say it was a great movie! The new 2008 version of the Incredible Hulk is must better than the older one. I was actually impressed with this version. One of the reasons I loved it so much, was because it was …

Johnny English
This movie, like anything with Rowan Atkinson in it, is very funny. It doesn’t quite have the flow to it that many of the Mr. Bean sketches have, but it’s still very fun to watch.
It seems similar to the Pink Panther, yet of course different. In this movie, Johnny …
Sex And The City- The Movie (2008)
After all the long anticipation into the final story of the super sucessful show Sex And The City and all the years of talk into making the movie- the final result was more than disappointing.
The show Sex and the City was a real hit. It showed the life of real …

However, there are positive aspects to “Employee of the Month”. This …
Ghost Rider
Somewhere down the line, Hollywood thought Nick Cage would make a good action star. I’m sorry, but that logic is flawed and the movie Ghost Rider proves it.
Overall, Ghost Rider is a good film; or, at very least, a unique one. Cage plays a stuntman who makes a deal …

The Boy in Striped Pajamas
While The Boy in Striped Pajamas is obviously a well-intentioned film, it is considerably unrealistic with a strange and awkward ending. The story is about an eight-year-old child named Bruno (Asa Butterfield) who is the son of a Nazi soldier (David Thewlis) and his unsuspecting wife (Vera Farmiga). …
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.
In the movie, the teenage twins David …
A Simple Formality Movie
A film by the italian director named Tornatore about a famous author being accused of murder. Did he commit it or not?
Tornatore is known by many as the director behind critically acclaimed Cinema Paradiso, a film which in my opinion is very overrated and relies only on sentimentality.
This is …

Colossus Imax Theater in Langley, British Columbia
I went to the Colossus Imax Theater in Langley, British Columbia on January 8, 2010. After work, I wanted to watch Avatar again, as my way of relaxing after a rather busy and very exciting week.
I took the Walnut Grove bus at the Surrey Sky Train station, …
The Disappearance of Flight 412 movie
I remember watching The Disappearance of Flight 412 when it came on TV for the first time in 1974. I bought it, hook, line, and sinker. I’m not necessarily talking about the UFO bit, well, yes, I am.
The truth is that I’m not arrogant enough to believe …
Movie rentals website AnimeForest.com
For years it has been a struggle to find a decent provider for Japanese animation rentals. Buying is costly, and it’s hard to know which ones are going to be great and which ones you’ll regret buying. However, chain rental stores like Blockbuster and Hollywood video simply …
Redbox Rental Service
I love Redbox. It’s a vending machine that dispenses movies, even Blu-rays, with 19 locations within 10 miles of my home. At first DVDs were $1 per movie per night. Now they are $1.20 plus tax. However I think it’s still a great deal. I usually grab a movie …
Cerberus (2005) movie
This is another one of those creepy animal movies, this time being based on ancient Greek mythology. If you’re familiar at all with mythology, then you should know that Cerberus is the three-headed dog that belongs to Hades, God of the Underworld (land of the dead, afterlife). His dog …

The Father of the Bride movie
Very often, the old original movie is better than a modernized remake; however, in this case I must say that it is not so. I had watched “The Father of the Bride” with Steve Martin first, for many years having no idea that it was a remake. Then I …
