White Noise movie
This movie stars Micheal Keaton, and I’m pretty sure that it’s classified as a horror flick, perhaps more accurately “thriller”.
The film focuses around EVP (electronic voice phenomenon). Basically, it’s where one records “white noise” from a television set and/or radio, perhaps asking questions they hope to be answered. …
Resident Evil 3: Extinction
Ok. Why does it some like most movies nowadays focus on destroying the world? Well, Resident Evil Extinction presents a barren wasteland of a world, taking place mostly in the desert and Las Vegas. Alice does mildly explain the bare bones …
Going The Distance Movie (2010)
I first thought this was just an ordinary feel-good movie, it features Drew Barrymore and her real-life boyfriend “The Jeepers Creepers Guy” Justin Long; it’s a story about two people meeting and falling in love but Drew here is just actually on a temporary “vacation” as she’s an intern …
Kill Gill
I’ve been disappointed by most of the Simpsons holiday specials lately. But, last night’s Christmas special was pretty decent.
The Simpsons took in a character I’ve always found fascinating, Gill, the sales guy who can’t seem to catch a break. And, I learned a lot about him, including just how …
Parent Trap
This movie is a great remake of the classic Parent Trap movie. The young Lindsay Lohan really shows her talent playing twins - a cool girl from California and a proper young lady from London. The two girls meet at camp and dislike eachother from the start , only …
From Dusk Till Dawn (1996)
I have always been a huge fan of vampire movies, but I have to say that Robert Rodriguez’s “From Dusk Till Dawn” is the most bizarre vampire movie I have ever seen. There is a lot of great talent in this movie - including George Clooney, Quentin Tarantino, Juliette …
Harry Potter & The Goblet of Fire
To kind of quote Indiana Jones, now we’re getting nasty. This is the first of the Potter stories to have someone killed, giving us a taste of what’s to come, priming us, if you will. The atmosphere of Goblet of Fire is decidedly darker. The moods of the characters …
Apocalypto movie
“Apocalypto” was a movie directed by actor Mel Gibson about a young warrior, Jaguar Paw living in the last days of a Mayan Kingdom in South America. I remember when the movie was released and being advertised my friends and I thought it would have been very interesting and …
The Bridesmaids Movie
The movie Bridesmaids was not quiet what I thought that it would be. When I first saw the previews for the movie I was convinced that it would be absolutely hilarious. However, I have to say that although I did find that movie funny, it was not quiet the …
How I Met Your Mother

Ted (2012 movie)
Ted is one of the best movies that I’ve seen this year. It’s funny, the writing is great, and the actors are extremely witty. Believe me when I say it is not what you will expect, because it wasn’t what I expected to see. Seth Macfarlane shines all the …
Police Woman - The Complete First Season
This movie DVD, Police Woman - The Complete First Season is really lame. There is truly nothing at all that I could comment on which would give it even the tiniest bit of positiveness. It is inspired from the TV series which have up to 23 episodes …
Disturbia movie
My cable company is giving us the movie channels for the weekend for free. So I have been watching movies on them lately, at least the ones I haven’t seen already. I was going to watch disturbia when it came out and then I totally forgot about it and …

Heathers (movie)
I might not see her in many movies now, especially after her shoplifting stunt a couple of years ago but once upon a time, Winona Ryder was one of my favourite actors. I especially liked a couple of her films from the eighties, some of which I could watch …
Movie Four Brothers
For such a long time I had been meaning to watch Four Brothers. I didn’t get around to actually watching it a few years after it came out. At the time when it first came out I kept hearing people say how much of a good move it …
Walk Don’t Run movie
One of the movies I always enjoy watching is Cary Grant’s last film, Walk Don’t Run, from 1966. Grant was such a wonderful talent. I really regret that he felt like his fans wouldn’t want to see him as a non-romantic lead in a movie. I …
The Ghost and Mrs.Muir,1947 movie
Can one fall in love with a ghost? Here is one of those stories that claim such a romance is possible. Mrs. Lucy Muir (Gene Tierney), a recently widowed young lady, wants to cut the ties with her meddling in-laws, so she decides to move from London to the …

Jet Li’s Fearless
Even though this film has been out quite a while now I have only just came around to watching it and if you’re into martial arts or the Chinese culture and tradition then you will be interested in this film start to end.
Jet Li plays Huo Yuanjia, son …
Goodrich Canton Cinemas
I have never gotten good customer service at this Canton movie theater. On my birthday, I was directed toward the wrong theater and I ended up missing the movie I wanted to see. A couple ahead of us in line ordered tickets to a movie called “The American”, which …

The Lost Boys movie
A horror film by Joel Schumacher about a company of young vampires on motorcycles who attack a young man and his brother. It has reached cult reputation by some people who grew up in the 1980s when it came it, but personally I just found it a very long …
Million Dollar Baby
I watched the movie Million Dollar Baby for the second time last night and, even though the movie supposedly got a lot of good reviews, I really just can’t see what people see in it.
Hillary Swank plays a female boxer who is trained by Clint Eastwood. And, while the …
Justice League: Throne of Atlantis (2015 Animated Superhero Movie)
I grew up reading DC Comics sometimes, and also watching animated series that revolved around popular DC Comic characters such as Superman and Batman and the Justice League. Now that I’m an adult I still watch some of their animated movies on occasion, especially when I’m feeling in the mood …
Wild Card, Movie
Wild Card is the latest offering from Jason Statham, and sees him once again partnered with director Simon West. This movie is much more low key than the soon to be released Furious 7, but it does boast a respectable cast (including Stanley Tucci and Michael Angarano amongst others) as …
Lady in the Water movie
M. Night Shyamalan hit the nail on the head with this creative endeavor of his. Lady in the Water is a story-telling type of movie in which the main characters, who all share an apartment complex together, join together to help save a young woman who was found in …
Annapolis (2006)
I don’t get this movie. It starts off with a young man trying to get into the US Navy. He is approached and offered a late entry spot and he takes the opportunity. He goes under the usual regulated training as a US Naval officer, then the whole direction …
House Of 1000 Corpses
The film was completed in 2000, and finally released in 2003, written and directed by Rob Zombie and starring Bill Mosley, Sherri Moon Zombie, and other lesser known actors. The film is extremely dark, violent, and shocking, it’s not to many movies that make a person feel sick and …
The Three Gables
I am reviewing The Three Gables, a Sherlock Holmes episode on the boxed set, The Memoirs of Sherlock Holmes, produced by Granada in the 1990’s. This episode finds Holmes and Watson against ruffians who are hired by a cold feeling woman to steal this poor old woman’s grandson’s …

Little Voice is a film that really touched me.
Called LV by her mother, Little Voice is a nearly agoraphobic young woman whose only contact with the outside world is through old record albums that had belonged to her beloved deceased father. They are her escape from …
Fever Pitch movie
Fever Pitch, starring Drew Barrymore and Jimmy Fallon, has been out on video for a few months now, but if you haven’t seen it yet, I highly recommend it.
This is a great date night movie. Guys - it has baseball! What more can you ask for? …
Rambo 2008 movie
Rambo is a 2008 film directed by and starring Stallone, the first in the Rambo series in years, the film looked promising, I watched these films growing up, and got tired of the monotony of the cliche and dull story lines in each sequel. This looked fresh and really …
Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles - Episode 1.5: Queen’s Gambit
Finally, some more terminator action! It seems that Andy didn’t give up his Turk/Chess creation and is now reprogramming a prototype. Sarah decides to sit him down and spill the beans about everything but before she could do that, an unknown person (or terminator rather?) takes it from him …
Never Been Kissed 1999 movie
Never Been Kissed, with Drew Barrymore, is, in a word, cute. The premise (shy girl gets to go back to high school and try again as part of a newspaper assignment) is fun and resonates with the part of me that knows a lot more than I did when …
Movie Autopsy (UR, 2008)
I won’t say that I tried to like this movie, because I could tell right away that it would be one of those films that tries to be campy. The movie, which centers on this one chick (who can remember their names) who is looking for her …
Little miss sunshine movie
Little miss sunshine is a really family oriented movie. If it did not have so much profanity, it probably would have been really successful as a mainstream movie. A dysfunctional family is coming together going on a road trip because the little girl wants to be in a little …

U.S. Marshals, directed by Stuart Baird is rated PG-13 by the Motion Picture Association of America for some scenes of violence and brief language. The original release date was March 6, 1998 for United States audience. This movie falls in the genre of Action/Thriller and stars Tommy Lee Jones …
Epic the Movie (2013)
Another fun-filled family adventure movie is here; from the makers of the Ice Age series and Rio, Epic feels to me like a magical combination of The Borrowers and Fern Gulley. I found myself being transported back to my childhood when I would have watched such films. However I …
The Fighting Sullivans movie
From 1944, The Fighting Sullivans is the true story of an Irish family’s strength and togetherness. The first part of the movie shows the ups and downs of five brothers. They fought a lot, but they were completely united. Halfway through, the boys age, and the …
50 First Dates
Adam Sandler is thoroughly charming in the movie date, 50 First Dates. I caught this on DVD and in fact, I have done that lots of times. I always do not fail to laugh whenever I watch 50 First Dates, and the side-kick heroine in this laughable romantic …
George Romero’s “Night of the Living Dead” (1968) Film
George A. Romero is known to zombie fans as the “Godfather of All Zombies,” according to Wikipedia. His rise to fame began in 1968 with “Night of the Living Dead,” a dystopian zombie film that garnered acclaim and criticism for its grotesque scenes and nearly nihilistic ending. Though I’ve …

The Mist
Stephen King movies are usually hit or miss. Some are great, others are kind of dumb.
The Mist falls into the former more than the latter. But, it still is flawed.
The great thing about The Mist is the fact you really never know what is going on until the very …
Scrubs Season Five - My Rite Of Passage
I am a huge collector of boxed DVD television collections. I love watching old reruns of TV shows because I can watch the episodes I want when I want. Also, I do not have to worry about the commercials either. This episode from season five is …
Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince
The film was absolutely fabulous. I was worried, I won’t lie, that Tom Felton (Draco Malfoy) would not have the acting chops to do this movie given that he’s had so little screen time in the past. I was worried that the “please” on top of the …
Toy Story 3 (in 3-D)
Toy Story 3 is the third installment in the long-running Toy Story series of films by Pixar and Disney. It centers around some of the main toys from the past two movies, such as Woody the cowboy and Buzz Lightyear the space adventurer, as they prepare for the …
