Pulse (movie)
I sat down and watched this movie with my whole family. Overall it was a pretty good movie. It was original and unique, not like a lot of other movies out today. It had it’s own storyline to it. There was hardly any gory parts in the movie, if …

Blood: The Last Vampire offers wonderful animation, grisly action, and an awesome main character, but lacks in overall length and depth of what truly could have been a perfect title. Saya is on the hunt for chiropterans, vampire-like demons that are wreaking havoc on a military base in Japan. …

Mystery Science Theater 3000: Boggy Creek II
If you like these MST3000’s You will love this one. This movie Boggy Creek II was sooooo lame that it had to be made fun of. And who better to do it but the beloved members of MST3000. This show made no since and they pointed out how senseless …

Darkness (horror movie)
I thought that I’d watched all the movies with Anna Paquin in it until I saw another one recently on cable television. It was a horror movie named “Darkness”, which I noticed didn’t have a very good rating on neither the cable television guide nor IMDB. Nevertheless, sometimes I …
Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl (2003)
“Pirates” is simply one of those movies that will not be off the current younger generation’s top films list. For me (and many others, I suspect), it was gateway into now-legendary actor Johnny Depp’s career. The guy’s performance in this movie, while not a magnum opus, no doubt reveals …

A married woman gets involved with a foreigner when she is taken for a ride during a small wind storm, he comes to her aid and she is captivated by his boyish good looks and his charm. Completely forgetting the fact that she is married, she encourages the young …
Raising Arizona movie
Joel and Ethan Coen had their breakthrough back in the 1980s with the most visually original and violent thriller Blood Simple. After that they have amazed the world audience with marvellous films like Miller’s Crossing, Barton Fink and The Hudsucker Proxy. In my opinion they have lost some of …
Ruthless People
I recently watched the movie Ruthless People on cable and I really loved the movie. It is a pure comedy movie. But the comedy is just smart comedy and not cheap comedy. This movie has Danny DeVito, Bette Midler in the main roles and they are really good at …
Shrek 2
The funniest movie you’ll ever see. That is how I had this movie advertised to me. I laughed and said no way when I heard this. And after seeing the movie I am ready to admit..I was right. This movie is no where NEAR the …
Butterfly Effect (2004)
First of all, if you are not familiar with a certain classic story, you will be left wondering what on earth “Butterfly Effect” means and what butterflies have to do with the plot of this movie. I happen to have heard of that story, although I do not remember …
Ted ( 2012 Movie )
When I saw the trailer of this film, it looked entertaining during the first scenes of the trailer until it showed Ted ( the talking teddy bear ) humping on top of the counter of a store. I was stunned, thus I watched the entire movie to really …

Lucy (2014 film)
While the trailers made this movie look like a formulaic popcorn flick, I had heard generally good things about this movie. The truth is, it is something of a mixed bag.
As the trailers show, the movie follows a young woman (played by Scarlett Johansson) who becomes something superhuman …
Spiderman 3
I saw Spiderman 3 at a matinee the weekend after it opened. There had already been a ton of reviews stating just how horrible it was and that Sam Raimi is just a huge dissapointment with this one.
NEVER listen to critics. Always make your own decision when …
Dracula Untold, movie (2014)
Dracula Untold is a dark fantasy action film that deals with the origins of Count Dracula, the famous character from Brom Stoker’s 1897 novel, Dracula. This movie is laced with action and bits of horror throughout. It’s not a perfect movie but as far as action movies go, it pays …

Clue (movie)
I always heard of the game “Clue”, but never actually got a chance to play it. However, I did get a chance to watch the 1985 movie a couple years ago when I was much younger and it was airing on a cable television channel. I feel in love …
Fun With Dick & Jane
I didn’t know what to think when I rented Fun With Dick & Jane. I usually like Jim Carrey movies but I wasn’t sure if this one would be very good or not. What I found was, while it was a funny movie, it was one I could relate …
Just Like Heaven
This DVD movie, Just Like Heaven is awesome!! I love modern ghost stories like this, but in a twisted romantic comedy sort of way. Want to know why? There are already enough depressions in this world, so watching a romantic comedy gets thumbs-up first from me anytime …
Johnny English
Starring: Rowan Atkinson (Johnny English), Ben Miller (Bough) John Malkovich (Pascal Sauvage ), Lorna Campbell (Natalie Imbruglia)
I think the name of Rowan Atkinson itself attracted me to this movie. Having known him as that disgusting yet endearing Mr Bean and his absurd antics, he did not disappoint at …
Movie License to Wed
Although some may label this movie as a Mandy Moore movie; in reality this comedy is all about the actor, Robin Williams. I personally have a soft spot for Robin Williams because he is simply great in whatever he interprets. In this movie, we see him to interpret the …
The Break-Up (2006)
First time I heard about the break-up that combines Vince Vaughn and Jennifer Aniston, I feel very much enthusiastic because I expect a really funny movie about love but unfortunately, I was totally disappointed.
This movie is about Brooke and Gary who break-up but both of them do not want …
Jennifer’s Body Movie
I consider Jennifer’s Body as a teen horror movie. The film’s story revolves around a young girl’s weird transformation which changed the lives of everyone in their town. Jennifer becomes possessed because of some dark ritual performed on her, giving her inhuman abilities. In turn, she …
Dan in real life
I was really excited to watch this movie. I watched it as soon as I got it in the mail. I thought it was going to be really funny. Well it was a little funny in the beginning and then the movie just got worse. It was boring, not …
Dishonored Lady movie

Peeping Tom movie
Peeping Tom is perhaps one of most influential films ever, but once you know the story behind the film it gets even more powerful. The director Michael Powell had charmed the world of cinema for decades with his visually groundbreaking epic films like A matter of life and death, …
Film Carrie
The film that launched the books of Stephen Kin into fame and had a similar effect on director Brian De Palma’s career, Carrie is considered by many to be a classic horror film and a perfect example of high school hell.

Enchanted movie
Enchanted is an attracting and unique movie with a brilliant idea to combine cartoon and real world. It is not a movie about Bugs Bunny and Brendan Fraser while they act in the same scene (Looney Tunes:Back in Action) but about a hole where every cartoon who enters …

In Singapore, there are very few who could make it big in the movie industry, due to our size that adds a lot of constraints for us. Jack Neo, once a comedian in his comedy night featuring him posing as a old granny named “Liang Po Po”. He’s considered …

Why You Were Sleeping
Oh how I love Sandra Bullock and Bill Pullman in this movie ! I love how it shows her being miserable and alone and how she has the not so glamorous job as a ticket taker for the subway in new york. It’s such a pitiful job and I …
Dr. Strangelove (1964 Classic Film)
Quite frankly, I have no intention to watch other Stanley Kubrick (otherwise known as the greatest American filmmaker ever) films after being disappointed by 2001: A Space Odyssey. I watched that film after the release of Nolan’s Interstellar two years ago and I never got the correlation among the two. …
Agonia movie
Russian filmmaker Elem Klimov, who is most famous for is incredibly well crafted anti-war statement “Come and See!”, has in Agonia chosen to depict some russian history. The film takes place in the 19th century and involves how the Emperor of Russia is being decieved by the greedy Rasputin. …
Tomorrow Never Dies movie
The second appearance of Pierce Brosnan made me confident the James Bond film series was never going to end. Although the creators ran out of Ian Fleming novels and made up the story on their own, it is actually rather thrilling with a lot of breathtaking action sequences and …
Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow (2004 movie)
For a movie that generated so much attention…it sure is boring. I tried to watch the movie straight tp the end, but it was hopeless. I couldn’t keep up with this movie as it didn’t have that staying power that a viewer looks for. It was long and drawn …
Lost Angel movie
At the tender age of six, Margaret O’Brien had top starring billing in 1943’s Lost Angel, a story about a girl dispassionately named Alpha who is raised by a group of scientists without the frills of fun and fairytales. After she’s questioned by a reporter who tells her …
Abbott & Costello Meet the Mummy
Since I watched their film, Jack and the Beanstalk, I have been wanting to once again watch Abbott and Costello movies. So, I started watching one I haven’t seen before (except for the ending), Abbott and Costello Meet the Mummy.
The movie was OK but not as funny as some …
Horse in the Gray Flannel Suit,1968 movie
This is a good, although dated, family movie that you can safely watch with your children without worrying about bad language, violence, or nudity. If your child is obsessed with horses, like I used to be when I was a kid, this movie will be a great choice.
Helen (Ellen …

A League of Their Own Movie

The Godfather (part 1) is one of a few movies I watched several times, besides Kramer vs Kramer, Accidental Hero, Heat, Ronin, Cape Fear, Taxi Driver, The Untouchable, Rain Man, The Deer Hunter and…uhm, Entrapment (What? It is an entertaining movie, isn’t it?).
Based on the novel of notable author …
