Raiders of the Lost Ark

We need more movies like this one, to keep the past alive. Not history’s past, but cinema’s past. It was George Lucas’ vision to make the Indiana Jones movies be reminiscent of the old movie serials of the 30’s and 40’s. This was a time when a person could …

Candy Man

My wife loaded the movie Candy Man on our Netflix player about a month ago because she remembered watching it as a kid and she wanted me to watch it with her. We ended up waiting until the kids were in bed this past weekend to watch it because …

Coco (2017 Pixar Animated Film)

Unlike recent years, animated movies really dove down in quality. The Emoji Movie is considered as one of the worst movies ever made; The Lego Ninjago’s critical acclaim failed to match its predecessors’ wit; and then we have Despicable Me 3 and The Boss Baby. We did have The Lego …

Norbit movie

Dirty Rotten Scoundrels

Pan’s Labyrinth (R, 2006) movie

Enchanted

I was finally able to watch Enchanted on cable on HBO a couple of weeks ago and I just absolutely love it. I was so used to seeing Disney movies create cartoons and yes, I like it. But this time, they were able to incorporate a magical story with …

John Carter (movie)

One of the movies that just did not interest me at all when I saw the trailer first was the movie John Carter. I still don’t understand why it didn’t either, since I remember thinking that the movie looked like something I would have sat an enjoyed. However, it …

The Notebook movie

Although I don’t watch as much romantic movies as I do action/adventure thrillers, I saw The Notebook and I totally loved it. It really made me cry. It’s about Allie Hamilton (Rachel McAdams), a young, wealthy teenage girl who vacations with her family to North Carolina. There she meets …

Avatar The Movie

Some people would say that the movie ‘Avatar’ was great, amusing, or even horrible. But my opinion was that the movie was the greatest movie i have EVER seen! The director James Cameron did an absolutely fantastic job with it. Many of my friends thought that the graphics were …

The Lake House

I wonder why this movie was so under-advertised when it was released in 2006, and why it went pretty much unnoticed? However, “unnoticed” is probably not the right word; all my friends who appreciate good movies did notice it, and commented on its unusual style and beauty.
“The Lake House” …

Mama (supernatural horror movie)

“Mama” might was not a very good or frightening horror movie. In actuality I actually thought that it came off as quite boring, predictable and cliche at times. I am one of Guillermo del Toro’s fans and I expected a lot more from a movie associated with him even …

Goodfellas
