For me, Bruce Willis will always be the godfather of action films and he just simply has a way of playing his role sole well that whenever I see him in a different setting, outside of a film and in an interview, it has a certain unnaturalness about it …

I really enjoyed the film Ginger Snap and I though this movie would be similar but it was not. Basically the makers of the first movie did not expect it to be a cult favorite. It was not made with a lot of money but did very …

From 1982, Missing tells a true story that isn’t always easy to watch. It’s an intense drama that can challenge one’s emotions. It’s a well written production, however, and does tell a story. I hate to term it entertaining, considering the subject matter, but the truth …

A film by John Landis about the rivalry between two college houses. An intense, crazy comedy that doesn’t leave a moment for the audience to take a breath. I have a taste for films that uses the theme of college and high school, but this one didn’t really engage …

28 Days Later is a zombie movie with a realistic and terrifying feel to it. Directed by Danny Boyle, it was shot on digital video which gives it a documentary feel to frightening effect. The —˜zombies’ here are not actually dead like in other zombie movies, but …

My wife and I picked out the movie “There Will Be Blood” because it looked and sounded like it would be a great action film.
They should have called the movie “There Will be Boredom.”
I won’t say it was a bad movie, because, from what I saw of it, it …

I think I watched almost every one of Johnny Depp’s later films before I finally got around to watching one of his first ones, Cry Baby. After seeing the movie for the first time, I can understand why it has become a bit of a cult movie.
While the overall …

I was looking forward to seeing the movie “Non-Stop” since February when it was in theatres since it had Liam Neeson, one of my favourite actors as a main character in it, and because the trailer that I had seen for it made the movie look interesting. I ended …

One missed call is a great movie. It has great actors in it, a good storyline and kept me interested throughout the movie. The ending could have been a little bit better but it was still a good ending. It started off really good, once I started watching it …

I have had a subscription to Zip.ca for about four months. I live in a rural area, so I like not having to rush into town to return movies as there are no due dates for titles as long as your membership is current.
I pay under $30 a …

While we were in Arlington Texas, my son and I had to find a movie theater, there is just so much walking you can do and we just wanted to relax for the evening. We found a theater that was around twenty minutes from the Sheraton that we …

A british comedy that stars the likes of Mos Def, Martin Freeman, Zooey Deschanel, John Malkovich, Bill Nighy, Sam Rockwell and the voice of Alan Rickman as a melodramatic robot.

Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind is a hidden gem of a movie. Jim Carey, in my opinion, gives the best performance of his career and funny enough, this isn’t a comedic role. Some of the movie has comedic relief, but this is in no way a …

Watching The Very Thought of You, I feel like wanting to be in the shoes of Monica Potter’s character very much. It is a story of choosing the Mr. Right one for you and that is what is basically the plot of the story.
Ralph Fiennes, Rufus Sewell …

My daughter is currently watching Tom and Jerry the Movie for the second time tonight. While she seems to enjoy the movie (which is probably the only thing that matters), I have to say I’m not a huge fan of it.
Overall, it isn’t a terrible movie, the cat and …

I remember seeing a photo of this creature in a monster magazine and remarking how scary it looked. Well it was not that scary in this classic film. I liked the opening scene in which it explained the Big Bang theory and leading up …

I am extremely disappointed! To the point of almost tears… So i finally got a chance to go see the latest Bond film, the Quantum of Solace…and Daniel Craig has managed to, single handedly, make me scream in agony.
I definately agree witih sir Roger Moore …

The fifth episode of the first season of Stargate SG-1 was called “The First Commandment”. Frankly, it’s not a big favorite of mine, though it has some fun moments to it.
Basically, the episode is about an SG team leader gone bad. He starts believing he’s a god. …

Based on the short story, “Killings,” by Andre Dubus, “In the Bedroom” is a smart film that can resonate with even the most emotionally closed off of people. This is a film that hits us all where it hurts the most: the death of a child. It’s a story …

I am really happy that the new film from the series “Robocop” which reboots the series from the beginning, is an exception to the rule that I have found that reboots usually don’t work out as well as their original movies. This fantastic action created by the director Jose …

How many times have we heard the phrase at the 11th hour? Quite often I bet and now that phrase will haunt those who are fans of good cinema. At the 11th hour the Criterion version of Ran was scrapped due to Lionsgate and StudioCanal. Criterion had to forfeit …

Unless you are a high school/college student or an intensely teen-hearted adult, this movie has nothing to offer you. It is nothing but two hours of dialogue about drugs, alcohol, and degrading comments about women; step foot onto any college campus in the nation, and you will be able …

Some films are mistakenly advertised as fantasy movies - and you expect to watch these movies with that fairytale-ish ending you thought you deserved but instead you end up crying your heart out because of just how sad they are. I remember watching a 2007 film called Bridge to Terabithia …

I rented “To The Devil A Daughter” for two reasons: Christopher Lee and Nastassja Kinski. I have always liked Lee’s presence in films, especially The Wicker Man (the original). He had this air about him that was both seductive and a little creepy. …

It has been ages since I’ve seen the movie Loaded Weapon 1. And, I have to say, I had completely forgotten just how funny this movie was.
It features Emilio Estevaz before he ruined his career by doing stupid kids movies. And, between his performance as a burned out cop …

The 3 Directors:
Bimal Roy - Kabuliwala
Satyajit Ray - Mahanagar
Vittorio De Sica - Bicycle Thieves
Among the three directors Bimal Roy has most positive attitude (in Kabuliwala), where he shows the city like the other two, as some a place where you can get employment, but he is more positive about …

I actually did not hear of the movie “The Return” until recently and when I heard that it was actually a thriller that had originated out of Russia, my curiosity was piqued even further. When I watched it I also could not help but think that it was actually …

In the 2010s a new director is threatening to steal the whole Hollywood show for himself-this director is quickly getting close to the very top of my list and his name is Cristopher Nolan-a film-maker whose every new film is better than the last one. His last one is …

Wow, what can you say about this little “masterpiece” of Christian cinema? The premise is pretty simple: a man from the 19th century travels through time to the beginning of the 21st century and is amazed by how immoral and corrupt and violent the world is. His …
