Chronicles of Narnia, one big bore
When the Chronicles of Narnia, The Lion, the Witch and The Wardrobe came out, I remember wanting to go see it at the theater only to find it was always sold out. Now that I’ve seen it on DVD, I’m glad I didn’t waste my money.
I’m not really sure …
Unthinkable movie
I was extremely skeptical, at first, about watching this movie. I am definitely one of those people that if something on t.v. or at the theater doesn’t catch my attention in the first ten or so minutes, it usually doesn’t manage to keep my attention to the end. And …
blockbuster .com
I actually like Blockbuster a lot more than Netflix because you can return the movies to the store instead of mailing them in and waiting to receive new movies. Not only can you return the movies that were mailed to you to the store, but you can also trade …
Pet Sematary
This is one scary movie, and no wonder: it’s based on a Stephen King book. Don’t watch it unless you’re a fan of horror films. Also, don’t watch it if you are an animal lover.
A family moves into a house at a remote place in Maine, the husband, the …
First Knight movie
Richard Gere and Sean Connery features here in the old tale about King Arthur and the knight of the round table, that is said to be mere myths by historians. Anyway, Gere is the brave man who quickly rises to one of Arthur’s favorite knights and most loyal man. …
27 Dresses
The other day, I gave in to my wife and watched the romantic comedy 27 Dresses with her.
While I’ll be quick to admit I actually enjoyed the movie; I was left a bit disappointed by it.
My biggest complaint about the film, which is about a woman who has attended …
Hard Cash movie
Hard Cash with Christian Slater, Val Kilmer, Daryl Hannah, Verne Troyer, and Sara Downing.
Whoever said that Christian Slater can be the lead role in any movie? He is so one dimensional that few movies stand a chance of surviving his subpar performances. Val Kilmer …
The Umbrellas of Cherbourg movie
A french musical by Jacques Demy, that is part of the french new wave movement of the 1960s. The dialogue is completely sung in this film, that is a love story about two young people and their passionate desire for each other. For different reasons they are separated and …

Third Harry Potter Movie
As a huge Harry Potter fan, I was very impatient for this movie, especially because Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban is my favorite book. I had heard there would be a new director so I was worried that it would not live up to my expectations. It …
Walk the Line
Walk the Line with Joaquin Phoenix and Reese Witherspoon.
Why make a movie based upon the rotten life of Johnny Cash? Another entertainer corrupted by rapid success hits rock bottom and then pulls out a turnaround is no big deal. Cash with his …
Serious Moonlight Movie (2009)
Serious Moonlight is a movie that aspired to be so much more than it actually ended up being. It had an amazing cast on board: Justin Long, Kirstin Bell, Meg Ryan and Timothy Hutton, and they have done a really good job. But the plot, starting the concept level …
The Silence Of The Lambs movie

Candyman
This is a 1992 movie, and for some strange reason did really well, you could call it a cult classic. The plot is weak even for a science fiction film, it leaves huge holes in the story, like when there talking about the “Candyman” they talk about him like …
One Hour Photo- Movie
One Hour Photo is a very suspenseful and disturbing movie starring Robin Williams in one of his rare non-comedic roles. Robin Williams plays a lonely and quiet clerk who works at a department store developing photographs from film customers drop off. This movie takes place before digital cameras were …
Malco Theatre Razorback Cinema
I went to the Malco Theatre Razorback Cinema to watch the new Sherlock Holmes movie. I was impressed at how clean it was and the employees were helpful. They showed us where the theatre was and took are tickets before we went in. I’ve been …
The World is Not Enough Blu-ray
Pierce Brosnan’s third outing as James Bond is one of the weakest in the series, with another ‘out there’ villain, played by Robert Carlisle and a ridiculous plot that makes ‘The World is Not Enough’ simply unbearable to sit through. Let me be clear: I hate this movie. …
eXistenZ (1999)

A Walk to Remember
“Tearjerker.” That’s how many people describe the movie adaptation of the popular novel by Nicholas Sparks, featuring pop princess Mandy Moore and TV cutie Shane West.
But unlike the novel version that is set in the 1950’s, the movie version was set in a more recent time of 1998, probably …
The Fast and the Furious
I like action movie, including car racing. I always like the Fast and the Furious no matter it’s the first movie, the second, the third or the fourth one, I like them all.

The Day The Earth Stood Still- The Remake
Yesterday,we have watched the movie The Day The Earth Stood Still. I was looking forward to see this movie when I was still in the Philippines, so when my fiance asked me what movie do I wanna see? I picked The Day The Earth Stood Still. …
Vacancy (R, 2007) movie
This is one of the few films that I had actually planned to see in theatres. I never made it before it went to DVD. But upon renting it, I realize that I would have enjoyed the theatrical experience just as much as watching it at home. …
Happy Feet Movie
Happy Feet the movie is a great family film designed for the whole family to enjoy, it is about a penguin who just does not seem to fit in. He can dance but he just can’t sing!
The adorable Mumble (voice Elijah Wood) is a fantastic character that children …
Hulk movie
“Hulk” is a 2003 movie about the Incredible Hulk, not to be confused with the far superior ‘re-boot’ called “The Incredible Hulk” released in 2008. The “Hulk” stars Eric Bana and Jennifer Connelly, as well as Nick Nolte in a ridiculous role as the main villian.
Pros: This …
Final Fantasy The Spirits Within Movie
From Squaresoft, the creators of the hit video game series Final Fantasy bring to the big screen, a spectacular visual treat. Four years in the making.
Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within veers off from the video game (FF7, FF8 and FF9). None of the characters in this film has supernatural …
Frankenstein
My daughter has found she likes watching old black and white movies with me; including some classic horror movies. So we took the time to sit down and watch the 1931 film Frankenstein last night.
This movie is probably not suitable for all children. But, I know my daughter ended …
Movie Bruce Almighty
Bruce Almighty with Jim Carey, Jennifer Anniston, and Morgan Freeman.
Since the concept of this movie appears to be original, I found it highly interesting regardless of the cast of star actors. What makes this a real winner is Jim Carey, who is at his …
Mama, film by Andres Muschietti
First-time feature film director Andrés Muschietti tries with Mama, an expansion of his earlier short film similarly titled, to paint the horror genre into a warmer, more fantastical light, whilst at the same time keeping overused plot contrivances as a foundation, so that the modern audience might not feel …
Disney’s Cinderella
If my daughter were writing this review of Disney’s Cinderella, it would be scathing. For some reason, Snow White is the reigning queen of the Disney Princesses, and she isn’t even technically a princess until the end. I smile whenever she goes into one of her rants when Cinderella …
Saving Sarah Caine movie
I saw previews of “Saving Sarah Cain” before watching another movie, and it looked like something I would not only want to watch but probably also add to my movie collection. I bought a DVD from Amazon shortly after that, and my husband and I watched the movie together.
“Saving …
Murder on the 13th Floor (movie)
One of my simple pleasures in life is lying in the couch and watching a fairly good Lifetime movie on a Saturday, especially if I don’t have much to do. When comparing them to some other movies, they might rate as rather terrible to average for too many reasons …

Alvin & the Chipmunks Meet Frankenstein
Well, I wasn’t sure if my daughter would like an Alvin & the Chipmunks cartoon; let along one that would have a scary monster like Frankenstein’s Monster. But, she obviously is a huge fan of the movie Alvin & the Chipmunks Meet Frankenstein because she’s watched the DVD probably …
The Grudge 2
The Grudge 2 is a sequel to The Grudge or as I say a very lame sequel to the Grudge. They overplayed the grudge lady to much and went into her passed. And instead of being a poor woman that was murdered by her husband it turned out that …
Drag Me to Hell (UR, 2009)
I am soooo glad that I waited to see “Drag Me to H3ll” on DVD. Had I watched it in the movies, I would have been extremely disappointed. In any case, I didn’t like that the film was too much of a dark comedy with some cheesy …
A night in the museum
Well, this movie is fascinating. It’s a different story altogather but the plot is not different or a good one. It starts like, there is a man who is sort of jobless and is having troubles. His son wants to emulate someone else and not him. The man wants …
What’s Eating Gilbert Grape?
The first time I found out about the movie was not in the nineteen nineties when it was released, but some time after I got cable. I immediately developed a love for it then because it had a sort of independent movie feel towards it and I had just …

Stargate SG-1 Continuum
The latest effort from the Stargate SG-1 camp is a direct to DVD movie called Stargate Continuum. Along with the regulars from the final season of the SG-1 television series, Richard Dean Anderson returned.
Overall, I enjoyed the movie, though oddly enough, I prefer SG-1’s first direct to DVD …

Season five is by far my favorite season of scrubs. It is so hilarious with a couple of sad moments. Carla and Turk and trying to have a baby, and J.D. and Turk are full fledge doctors. They have finally finished their internship. Dr. Cox …
Hardball (2001)
A simple movie with a simple plot that anyone can relate to. nothing too over the top or overly dramatic about it, just a run of the mill drama with some appeal if you actually get in too deep and start to watch the movie in detail. This movie …
Jarhead movie
It’s not often that I will find a movie so horrible I have to turn it off before I even get halfway through it. This is especially true of war movies. However, Jarhead became one of those films.
When I read the description of the movie and saw the previews, …
Les Miserables (2012 movie)
The experience I had with this movie was the same I had with my previously watched movies based on Novels, which was out of the world. I don’t know why I found novel based movies so interesting and exciting. Perhaps, it’s because novel writers have some great skills to …

Into the Blue 2 movie
I wasn’t sure what to expect when we decided to pick up the movie Into the Blue 2: The Reef. We liked the first movie but it also wasn’t one of our favorites so I had doubts about a sequel that didn’t even star any of the actors from …
P.S I love you Movie
I just watched P.S I love You movie last night and i was truly disappointed with the movie. It was totally different from Cecilia Ahern’s novel. I really love the novel and looking forward to watch the movie version but after watched it, i prefer the novel more.
