Shiver (NR, 2008) film
Those who like horror films that have a creepy subtlety will absolutely love this film. Yes, it’s a foreign film with subtitles. But that doesn’t make any of the action in this movie less frightening. The story centers on a boy who moves to …

Get Smart movie
At first I was a bit skeptical about this movie. The trailer seems funny and exciting, but most boring movies do. So when I went to the cinema with my sister to watch something (Hancock excluded because she wanted to watch it with her bf) I have no other …
Man of Steel, movie
I’m gonna let you in on a little secret: Superman is lame. There, I said it, and now I’ll probably have to run and hide inside some bunker until the geek rage dies. And it’s strange, because I’m also a geek. A geek that loves comics and computer games, …

Children of Men
To start off with, any movie that has Michael Caine saying, �Pull my finger� at gunpoint can’t be all bad. And Children of Men is not bad, but it sure is depressing. The story of a future Earth, where the last baby born was eighteen years ago, and now …
Get Shorty
WHen I saw the movie “Be Cool” come out in 2005, I had a hard time understanding it even though it was only bits and pieces at different times that I watched. Thus, when I heard that it was actually a sequel to the movie “Get Shorty” which I …

Fury of the Wolfman (1973)

Movie Review of the Machinist
When Christian Bzle emerged from Hollywood to don the cape of Batman, the critics were at first skeptical, then heaped paeans of praise for his acting. It wasn’t as popular as Superman– hell, it was a portrayal of a dark character set against a dark backdrop. Between …

Coyote Ugly
What is this movie about? I can answer that in two words: bar dancing. There is nothing else in it, really. No story to speak of, just a few events to get the main character to work at the bar - and then it is all about girls dancing …
The Unexplained: Hauntings (NR, 1997) DVD
I will confess that I was expecting something a little bit longer. Showing for only 50 minutes, I was looking for a bit more depth. This History Channel program dives into the supernatural, and spends a few minutes with different people who have had experience …
Vanessa Hudgens
Vanessa Hudgens is the rising young star of Disney. Thanks to High School Musical, she is now a nation wide start. She can act, sing, and dance. That’s a triple threat for you. Recently, I’ve noticed she has gotten more womanly. She has more curves now compared to the …
