“Nine Queens” is a 2000 movie from Argentina about grifters or con-men. The movie is in Spanish but the DVD comes with a choice of subtitles. The movie is in color and was filmed on locations throughout Buenos Aires.
Ostensibly the movie is about two con-men: Juan, played by …

I think one of the funniest scenes in the movie is when you have a gorgeous blonde who is trying to hook up with a goofy, balding man. Every time I see the movie, I start laughing. I realize that it is supposed to be a small town, but …

I had heard of the play Sweeny Todd and then heard of the movie from last year. I was interested in seeing the movie. When I first sat down to view the movie I was curious.
In my opinion, Johnny Depp is a good character actor. I also really …

I was a teen when I’d first seen Back to the Future, and I was stunned, just like many other viewers, I’m sure. Time travel was not a new movie theme even back then, but I don’t think anyone had done it this way before: sending the character not …

The best way to eve try and explain this movie is to compare it with Tarzan and then give it an over all switch in the level of deepness in the character, toss in a heap of comedy and you have yourself a movie that has been remade into …

In Columbo: Undercover, Ed Begley Jr guest stars as Irving Krutch, insurance investigator. We get 5 minutes of him in this offbeat role. He wore me out and he bore me at the same time. I lost interest in his shenanigans in his overdone storytelling. …

The story about four American armies on duty in Iraq. Cutoff from the last period of their duty to brought medical equipment to one of village in Iraq was followed by many tragic cases. Mental conflict experienced after returns to US is not easy to be passed. It is …

John and Charlie are brothers from a foster home, not biological brothers mind …

I must say that I love Diane Lane. She tends to have this quiet sex appeal that translates very well on screen whether she’s playing a seductive role or not. In any rate, I’m not used to seeing her in thrillers. But this particular movie was …

I really enjoyed the 2005 movie “White Countess.” The movie stars Natasha Richardson as Countess Sofia Belinskya and Russian Countess expatriated to Shanghai after the 1917 Russian Revolution. To support herself and her extended family Sofia works as a dance hall girl and sometimes prostitute. Despite her efforts her …

In a stress world, do we still want to find money when we know that we are suffering in health like say, early signs of hypertension, nerve anxiety and stuff like that? It would be hazardous in the long run if we don’t rest well. Why are there …

When we rented the movie Evan Almighty, I didn’t know what to expect. The orginal film, Bruce Almighty, was pretty good but sequels aren’t always as good as the original.
We found that, not only was it a great movie, it had a good message too. In fact, my …

I am not a fan of the Wayans brothers, their juvenile humor is too disgusting for my taste. However, I chose to see the movie Little Man, mostly because I found the idea of a full-grown man playing a midget (with some computer-generated help, of course) rather curious. Well, …

I cannot recall how many times I’ve seen this movie but I don’t mind. I like this anyway. Well, of course I don’t buy the idea that two people could exchange faces considering the differences in their genetic make up and it’s not solved by simple facial …

I really enjoyed this movie about teenage cheerleaders and the competition they enter to be in a music video. While the movie may seem to be about cheerleading and winning, the story also has a great heart about friendship.
The cheerleading moves in this movie are amazing. I have …

After seeing it on DVD this past weekend, I was sorry it took me so long to see it.
I was always …

Disney pretty much nailed it with this movie in every way possible. I can safely say it does not target a specific audience but rather promotes interest in all age ranges. It is rated PG and I can understand why by I urge you not to deter …

This movie has a really nice title but it’s hype and mystery isn’t at all what it seems to be. This movie features 2 young orphans who are taken in by their guardians who were really close friends of their parents and of their family as well; at first …

William Wyler’s The Collector, filmed in 1965, is possibly one of the most disturbing films ever made. It is a suspense film and a character study and one of the bleakest at that, as well.
Freddie (Terrence Stamp) is a lonely man who likes to collect butterflies. Having, …

Somewhere down the line, Hollywood thought Nick Cage would make a good action star. I’m sorry, but that logic is flawed and the movie Ghost Rider proves it.
Overall, Ghost Rider is a good film; or, at very least, a unique one. Cage plays a stuntman who makes a deal …

In a nutshell, “The Bachelor” is all about a guy who doesn’t want to commit to marriage, which is a reality these days more than ever! The interesting aspect about this movie is that it is a cute, funny romantic comedy that can be enjoyed both by men and …

From 1989, Who Shot Patakango? is a sort of odd coming of age movie about teenagers attending high school in Brooklyn, New York. The star of note was Sandra Bullock as Devlin Moran. Following are some thoughts on this production.

E.T. is the well-known film about an alien from outer space coming to the earth and becoming a friend to a couple of children in America. Steven Spielberg started to loose his touch from the 1970s with this film in my opinion and it’s clear he only ever made …

My hair is unfortunately very untamable at times. That is, until I was given a hot iron by my sister that has worked wonderfully on my hair without causing any damage or dryness. The Wet 2 Straight hot iron from Remington is a product that any boy or girl …

This is a really fun movie. Players are Steve Carell, Morgan Freeman, Lauren Graham and some others. Steve Carell is as funny as he can be. Morgan Freeman show up occasionally, not a very big role. Lauren Graham is cute. It is a story …

Role models was a lot more funnier than I thought it was going to be. The movie has Seann William Scott and Paul Rudd in it. They face jail time but instead of jail they have an opportunity to do community service instead. They have to spend time with …

These days, many small budget movies with lesser-known actors are becoming big news at the mainstream award shows like the Oscars and the SAG, not just the film festivals. “The Boy in the Striped Pajamas” is one film that actually slipped under the radar and, in my opinion, should …
