Finding Nemo
Finding Nemo is an animated film worth watching. I’ve seen it twice already and still I want to watch it again. It’s the story of a clown fish named Marlin (voiced by Albert Brooks), an overprotective father to Nemo (Alexander Gould). After Nemo disappears, Marlin searches for him into …
Graduation Day
I don’t remember much about 1981 (I would have only been about 6) but, if the movie Graduation Day is any indication, I don’t think it was a year where there were a lot of good movies.
The film advertises itself as a thriller but it was more of a …
50 First Dates
I’m usually not the type to fall for romantic comedies because they tend to be predictable and sometimes even stupid, in my opinion. This idea, however, did not pertain to the movie 50 First Dates. I fell in love with this movie the first time I saw it a …
Sweeney Todd, the demon barber of Fleet Street
I just finished watching this movie at home and I wasn’t quite happy with the flow of the story or plot. Although the lead character Johnny Depp did a fantastic job as the barber who turned out to be a serial killer in Fleet street. The story …
Blue Hawaii movie
Blue Hawaii is one of my favorite Elvis Presley movies. Part of it is because of the beautiful scenery, part is due to the musical score, part is due to a decent plot, and part is due to Elvis himself.
I’ve been to Hawaii and to the hotel where …
Definitely, Maybe
We saw this movie yesterday. It was a cute movie, not the best I’ve ever seen, but definitely not the worst.
I really like the little girl who plays Maya (Abigail Breslin). She is a hoot in the movie and just a very good actress. She puts emotion into the …
Failure to launch/Matthew Mcconagughey & Sarah Jessica Parker
I loved this movie tremendously. As a survivor of the dating scene, I think we have all encountered at least one guy like this. It seems like he is the perfect guy that you have long been searching for. He has all the great qualities and looks irresistable. Then …
The Boss of it All
The Boss of it All is a movie that I love watching. It is very goofy, and makes fun of the corporate industry, and what really goes on inside. It targeted and has a sarcastic message to those bosses who have it all, and making wry decisions.
The …
Tropic Thunder
Tropic Thunder is hilarious. There’s really no other way to put it. It’s vulgar and borderline offensive at points but if you can get through that you’ll have a blast watching this movie.
It opens with some “advertisements” of the products from the various characters. Our theater …
Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix movie
Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix is one of the best Harry Potter movies ever made. In fact, I recall that I did not like the fifth book in Harry Potter too much, but I ended up liking the movie a lot. Firstly, I liked that since …
Inkheart (staring Brandon Fraser)
This is one of the best movie stared by Brandon Fraser. He has done a good job in this movie. As a character named Mo, which is one of the Silvertongues (person who can make a character of a story book comes to real world), he act in his …
Transformers (2007)
Michael Bay does it again with Transformers. With his known use of 100% authentic special effects, who wouldn’t love his movies? He further proves it with this installment of Transformers, taken from the toys, games and old TV series. Starring Shia Labeouf and Megan Fox, Transformers takes you through …
Braveheart film
“Braveheart,” a 1995 film directed by Mel Gibson, is probably my favorite movie. It is certainly in my all-time top five. I doubt there are many people who have not watched this movie, but if you are one of those people, I would recommend renting it immediately. …
To Kill a Mockingbird
I am reviewing the movie, To Kill a Mockingbird, which was made back in the 1960s. It starred Gregory Peck as Atticus Finch, Mary Badham as Scout, and Phillip Alford as Jem. This movie remains to be my mother’s favorite and my favorite movie ever. There is just something …
New Moon
I had hoped New Moon would be better than the Twilight movie> I had read the books and unlike every teenage girl in teh world I thought they were rubbish.
So when I went to New Moon I had the previous history with teh books and the Twilight movie …
The Matrix movie
The Matrix is a science fiction film released in 1999 starring Keanu Reeves and written and directed by the Wachowski brothers, the film also stars Laurence Fishburne, the soundtrack to the film is really good, featuring Marilyn Manson, Rage Against The Machine, The Prodigy and Rob Zombie among others. …
Envy the Movie
I watched this movie with my family, but it did not turn out being a very friendly film for families. I wish that it was a better one for us to have watched, but at the same time, it was funny, and kids are used to hearing bad language …
Bullet Boy (R, 2004)
You must really be a fan of independent urban films to grasp the poignant story of these two brothers. If you are looking for lots of “Boyz in the Hood” type violence, you will only be mildly satisfied. This film meanders between sensitive drama, and urban action …
Just Friends
Ah the classic, “I love you, just not like that,” or “We’re just friends” lines. Who hasn’t said, or heard, one of those? We’ve all been the victims of unrequited love. This movie takes this natural occurance to a new and hilarious level.
Ryan Reynolds, as usual, plays an absolutely …
Vamps (movie)
I watched the movie “Vamps” last night for the first time and I thought that it was one of the most interesting vampire movies that I’ve watched in a very long time. The funny thing was that I’ve never heard of the movie before last night, which is a …
Super Bad Movie
Teenage Comedy. I thought I had seen every possible teenage movie scerino, that is until I watched Super Bad. From start to finish this movie had me rolling! The first funny thing I noticed was Seth’s enthuisastic nature. From the get go he spews curse word after curse word, …
Horror Movies
What’s the deal with these so called Horror Movies that are being made these days. Do they know the meaning of Horror? Correct me if i’m wrong…but shouldn’t a horror movie scare you? The rating for a typical horror is usually PG-13. How the hell can this be horror, …
The Bella Lugosi Collection dvd
Bela Lugosi movies are some of my favourite classical horror films. I got interested in them a few years ago along with a few other classical horror, suspense and science fiction films, but I was not able to find a suitable dvd which had a collection of some of …
Candyman (movie)
“Candyman” was one of those horror movies that I remember watching back when I was still very young. I was actually too young to be watching something like that, and as a result I remember being frightened for a very long time. When I was much older though, and …
A River Runs Through It (1992)
A dramatic movie in every sense of the word drama, this movie tells the story of two brothers who continuously live their lives in the shadow for the minister father, even though they have matured and move on with their lives, it is the grounded principles that last and …
ShowPlace 16 movie theater Naperville IL
ShowPlace 16 movie theater, located at 2815 Showplace Dr., Naperville, IL, is always a pleasure to go to. It is a large, fancy theater with comfortable soft chairs set like in an amphitheater, which gives a much better view. Even on a busy night with some big hit movie …
“Elf” (2003 Film)
Will Ferrell is a very funny actor who I have seen in many movies and really enjoyed watching. One movie he stars in in-particular is the holiday movie “Elf” which came out in 2003. In this film, he plays a human named Buddy who was raised by elves and …
The Holiday (2006)
The Holiday, written and directed by Nancy Meyers is rated PG-13 by the Motion Picture Association of America, and stars Cameron Diaz as Amanda, Jude Law as Graham, Kate Winslet as Iris, Jack Black as Miles and Eli Wallach as Author Abbott.
Both Amanda and Iris are at a stage …
Movie: The Adventures of Robin Hood
I had heard of the movie The Adventures of Robin Hood but I had only seen bits and pieces of it until yesterday afternoon. It was raining out and I had nothing better to do (since my entire day had been planned as an outdoor yard work day) so …
I Know Who Killed Me Movie
I have no problem admitting that I actually like Lindsay Lohan, or at least I like her as an actress even if I don’t care for her personality or partying. I actually like her as a singer too, which is why I think it’s a little sad to see …

American Gangster The Movie
American Gangster is a movie that I went to this last weekend and I spent $22 for me and my girlfriend to see this over hyped movie and I was very dissapointed in it. The movie stars Denzel and so I thought it would be good but I found …
Ratatouile movie
I like this movie so much. I enjoy so much how a rat was able to change a life of an orphan and was the sole key for his success. I enjoy the movie so much since the story line was a little fresh. I love how the plot …
The Day of the Dolphin movie
“The Day of the Dolphin,” starring George C. Scott, is a touching story about two adorable, very intelligent dolphins, Fa and Bee. Doctor Jake Terrel (Scott), a marine biologist, has been working with these dolphins for many years trying to improve the communication between dolphins and humans. He has …
Airheads
I have not seen this movie being aired on any of the cable television channels I have in ages. In fact, I remember that the last time I saw it was some time in either the late nineteen nineties at my grandmother’s house or in the very early 2000s. …
The Sentinel (2006)
The Sentinel, directed by Clark Johnson is rated PG-13 by the Motion Picture Association of America for some intense action violence and a scene of sensuality. The original release date was April 21, 2006 fir United States audience. This movie falls in the genre of Action/Crime/Drama/Thriller and stars Michael …
Fargo
I’ve always said there are many under-rated actors in Hollywood, and Fargo has two of them. William H. Macy and Steve Buscemi have helped many movies succeed with their performances, without the accolades of their peers. This movie is no exception. Both actors made this movie successful.
Macy is a …
Deja Vu (2006)
Denzel Washington stars as a special investigator. In the beginning of this movie, a terrible crime was committed by a psychotic so-called patriot…he blew up a ferry with lots of people on it (Men, women, children). After the explosion and the days following, Denzel and his team go through …
Mongolian Death Worm Movie
I took off yesterday afternoon and, since I discovered there isn’t anything good on TV Friday afternoons, I ended up watching a movie I had DVR’d a couple weeks ago; Mongolian Death Worm.
The movie, which in my opinion is pretty much a rip off of the film Tremors, was …
Unlawful Entry (1992)
Living in fear I your own home is one thing, but when the fear of the people who have been assigned to protect and serve also fall into the same category then that is definite need for worry and distress. An LA couple’s lives has been turned upside down …
Movie: “Enchanted” (2007)
“Enchanted” is, in a word, enchanting. I was very impressed at this sweet and charming film; it’s wonderful for the whole family and I believe it will be a classic for years to come.
It starts with a beautifully animated sequence; the lovely (and relentlessly upbeat) Princess Giselle lives in …
21 Grams movie
In order to fully understand 21 Grams, you will have to be committed to watching this movie at least twice. After the first viewing, you will want to watch 21 Grams again because the movie is thrilling and very exciting. There is a love story between Paul and Christine, …
The Hitcher (movie)
I honestly think it�s time for me to stop watching horror movies. They just don�t do anything for me any more. The remake of the 80s film The Hitcher proves this.
The problem with The Hitcher is it�s like every other horror film I�ve ever seen. It has two college …
Blood Diamonds
This is by far one of Leonardo di Caprio’s best films along with “The Departed”. I particularly liked the way “Blood Diamonds” was filmed and, as a mother of a small kid, I was very much impressed with scenes were kids were ordered to kill their enemies. I just …
Perkins’ 14 movie
I watched this movie with a few expectations. But suprisingly, they were not met. Even though the movie was scary, I didn’t expect it to unfold as awkwardly as it did. The premise of the film is that a man whose parents were murdered ended up …
The LEGO Movie (2014)
When my kids first heard about the LEGO Movie it was all they would talk about for weeks. I have to admit that even though I tried to act cool about it, I was pretty excited too. This movie had an all-star cast with everyone from Morgan Freeman to …
Wanted: A Movie
What have you been doing lately? This is the last line from the movie “Wanted” starring Morgan Freeman, Angelina Jolie and James Mc Avoy.
James Mc Avoy plays the role of Wesley Gibson, an Account Manager in some company. He thinks of himself as a loser who is struggling to …
House of Usher movie 2008
I rented this movie as a fan of the horror genre and also an interest in Edgar Allen Poe. It turned out that I did not read the description as carefully as perhaps I should have, but what took place was entertaining none the less. This movie …
My Six Loves movie
Debbie Reynolds stars as actress Janice Courtney in My Six Loves, a very entertaining comedy from 1963. Courtney wants some time away from the hectic lights of Hollywood, so she retreats to her country home, only to discover six waifs living on her property.
The six children are played …
Richie Rich
“Richie Rich” is one of the most known movies for the actor, Macaulay Culkin but his acting skills in this movie are in no way comparable to the “Home Alone” movies. Culkin has been nominated for the Razzie Awards for his interpretation in this movie.
I recently watched this movie …
