Note: This review of Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets contains spoilers.
Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets is not my favorite of the Harry Potter movies. Unlike the other 4 films out on DVD, this one feels like it’s too long. I first watched this movie on …

I am reviewing the movie, Rush Hour 2 starring Jackie Chan and Chris Tucker. Chris plays Carter, a loudmouth, no nonsense, comedic cop. Jackie plays Lee, a hardworking, serious, dedicated detective from Hong Kong. The second movie starts out with the two actors enjoying some …

Although most of the setting of this movie takes place on a plane it was still interesting to watch. I enjoyed watching the whole movie. It’s about a stranger who comes up to this lady and threatens her about her father and wants her to kill someone. Basically if …

Manhattan (1979)is a classic movie and considered widely to be one of the best from the director, Woody Allen. This black and white film is one of my all-time favorites —“ both funny and also mature in its depiction of Allen’s character, Isaac, and his quest to find …

A Good Year is a real feel good film, just like the title suggests. Russell Crow plays the lead and I actually like him in this film. He does a great English accent and plays a hard hearted, workaholic, money hungry city trader to perfection. His character doesn’t seem …

Dr. Seuss’s cherished book “How The Grinch Stole Christmas” is a story that many people know and love for the holiday season. It was turned into a 2000 motion picture staring Jim Carrey as the Grinch. Not only was there a new twist of comedy to this beloved tale, …

When my husband and I joined Netflix last month, we thought it was going to be great. We chose a plan in which we can rent unlimited movies per month, but we can only get two at a time. Well, we found out pretty quickly that this is how …

I watched this movie about three or four times and I wouldn’t mind watching it again. It is one of those movies that you can never forget. I would describe it as a very delicate film, approaching very serious problems in a playful manner, but for this very reason …

Let us face it: Professional Managers with respect to Presidential campaigns have suffered from bad reputations: I think similar to “Buy Here —“ Pay Here” car lot salesmen; or even ambulance chasers. Their respective images were made worse by the book: “The Selling of the President …

Duma with Alexander Michaletos.
This movie was made for kids, but I watched it anyway because I usually enjoy animal movies. I suppose that the movie was a clone of the famous Lion adventure Born Free, but I still enjoyed it anyway.
The movie …

I loved this movie. Sandra Bullock plays Gracie Hart, a dedicated FBI agent to whom her job is everything and her appearance is not that important. Supposedly, she is unattractive, and her male co-workers don’t even notice her as a female (I am saying “supposedly” because, to me, Sandra …

“Street Kings” is a unique drama movie that will keep you hooked watching it till the end. The most interesting thing about this movie is that you will get to watch three great actors Keanu Reeves, Forest Whitaker and Chris Evans as you have never …

I watched this horror movie last night and it was much better than I had expected. I had never seen a movie about a sasquatch (bigfoot) before, so I wasn’t sure what to expect. I’m happy to say this picture kept me entertained until the end. The plot was …

The movie Musafir released in 2004. I watched it at home on DVD. I did not like the movie much. The movie has been directed by Sanjay Gupta. The promos of the film were attractive enough to attract a lot of audiences to the cinema hall. But the movie …

I’ve said this once before, but any movie that will keep my 3-year-old daughter occupied for 90 minutes is one that will always receive high praise from me.
The Rugrats movie is one of those films.
I bought her the movie about a week ago as a bribe. She had spent …

I am reviewing The Musgrave Ritual, a Sherlock Holmes episode from the boxed set, The Return of Sherlock Holmes, which was produced in 1984 by Granada television. In this episode, Holmes and Watson are off to visit an old classmate of Holmes’ named Musgrave. He and Watson have …

I’ve read a lot of mixed reviews about the movie “Battle: Los Angeles”. I’ve read bad ones, where people say it’s one of the worst movies they’ve seen, and that it’s a waste of time and money; and I’ve read good ones, where people say it’s one of …

Charlie and the Chocolate Factory is a tale of one young boy that wins a golden ticket that allows him to access the mystical Wonka Candy Factory. This candy factory is owned by one strange chocolatier, Willy Wonka. He is not a public person, so that he is …

I had never seen the movie D.C. Cab until last night, when I was bored and had a chance to watch it on Netflix Instant watch.
You know what, I should have found a different movie.
Here’s a rule of thumb. If the movie’s biggest star is Mr. T, then it …

Sad, Heartwarming and Hopeful
Before the credits start Holly (Hillary Swank) and Gerry (Gerard Butler) are having an argument that almost anyone who has ever been in a relationship would recognize. She is passionate about the subject and he hasn’t a clue as to what they are fighting about. …

I went to see this film with a bunch of my friends. We had seen the advert and thought it looked quite good.
The film is based on true events which takes it to a scarier level. The majority of the film is re-enacted however it shows a lot …

Smurfs 2 is an animation, comedy and family movie of 2013 directed by Raja Gosnell who directed the Smurf which was released in 2011. I enjoyed the Smurfs at its peak, and was expecting the same from the Smurfs 2. The Smurfs 2 was releasing with a couple of …

I wanted something to watch late last night that was interesting but didn’t have a plot that was overly complicated. So, I fell back onto my usual horror genre and picked out one that seemed interesting; Haunting of Winchester House.
I actually was familiar with the Winchester House legend (thank …

I was curious about the romance drama film The lifeguard, when stumbling across it on the internet movie database website. I was intrigued by the cast list and the controversial storyline. I figured since Kristen Bell was the lead role, the movie would be pretty good since she is a …

Carrie is one of the scariest movies I have ever seen in my life. I think it truly is a super scary movie. This is one of the Stephen King’s films ever. I think he truly does bring something special to the whole movie. The movie truly does bring something …

“Henry and June” was the name of a movie which was released in the nineteen nineties. When I first got cable television I used to see the movie going on regularly especially in the summer; however I didn’t pay much attention to it since I thought that it would …

This is a classic story that will send you sobbing and crying after you watch it. I felt so terrified and traumatic after watching this, it’s not really a good film to be watched by people who are paranoid or who are easily affected and easily worried and sensitive …

Regal Natomas Marketplace 16 is the only theater near my house. Its located right on the boarder of a bad neighborhood. I would never go to this theater at night by myself. There is a rough crowd that hangs around it a night. The theaters always smell really bad, …

When I saw Inception, I was really thinking about the actor who played Arthur. I really thought so hard until I remembered that he was Joseph Gordon-Levitt, the guy who was in the movie, 500 Days of Summer.
I saw 500 Days of Summer (2009) at home when I was …

I went to see this film because it looked interesting, I thought it was interesting they would take shots at W eaven before his term had ended. The movie chronicles George W Bush’s life, growing up and eventually becoming president, it is one of those movies where you aren’t …

A refreshing new beginning for the Bond film series after several years of break after the flop of Licence to Kill in the late 80s. A new face for Bond and Pierce Brosnan immedietely became popular among the audience as he was both convincing as an action hero, and …

“The Woman in White,” 1982, mini-series is perhaps one of the best adaptations of the Wilkie Collins mystery novel. Mini-series, in my opinion, is the best way to film Victorian classics: you don’t have to cram a huge book in a one and a half hour movie and therefore …

I don’t know what they may say about Jeepers Creepers but I think this one of the scariest movies I’ve seen. It’s got a sequel Jeepers Creepers II, shown in 2003 but the first one is scarier. The creeper (played by Jonathan Breck) is some kind of …

Russell Crowe plays John Nash, a brilliant mathematician with a destructive mind. Based on actual events on the life and times of John Nash, this movie tells the tale of what it was like to have the condition on a daily basis with and without the use of medication. …

Quantum of Solace, in my calm, objecive opinion, was the worst piece of trash I have ever had the misfortune of buying a ticket to see. Many people have trashed Daniel Craig as the …

A few months ago I was flipping through the channels in a hotel room and came upon the Addam’s Family Movie. I honestly could not remember seeing it however it appeared that I had. I called my mother and she said that I had seen it a few …

This movie is about Juno, a teenage girl who found herself pregnant and trying to find means and ways to look for a father to adopt her baby when she gives birth. I love the acting of actress Ellen Page and if you want to have a clue …

It was an exhausting movie, with action everywhere, and debris flying all over the place. I am not a big transformers fan (probably because I am a girl), although I appreciated the effects of this Transformers 2: Revenge of the Fallen. I grew up watching my brothers fight over …

She’s hot!
She’s dangerous!
And…She’s not ENTIRELY human!

Another classic horror film, made back in the 1930s. Very subtle horror is it doesn’t really contain any violence or monsters. A woman travels to Jamaica where she learns of the strange culture called voodoo - the ability to control people using a puppet.
This woman experiences the most remarkable …

I was a bit surprised that I did not hear about this movie when it was being released in theatres. However, I realised later that it was probably because I was a bit busy at the time. I thought that this movie had some fairly good acting in it …

It is certainly refreshing to see Norah Jones doing other things rather than just singing and showcasing her real nice voice. I have the chance to watch the DVD movie, My Blueberry Nights, and the Director is Wong Kar-Wai. Other than Norah Jones, Jude Law and Natalie Portman …

I’m not a teeny pinky type of person who likes “pop culture”. But, I must say, though the movie “Just Like Heaven” considered as a romatic-comedy that is the target crowd was kind of teens turns out nicely nice.
It is indeed a light kind of movie with a justified …

I did a free trial from netflix a while ago and I also did it a free trial for my cousin not to long ago. The movies took forever to get to me and her both. They are also a little more money than blockbuster. You also can’t take …

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 …

I remember wanting to see the movie “Enemy” after I had seen the trailer some time ago. It gave me the impression that it could be one of those thrillers that would keep me in suspense all the way through till it ended. However, after I got to watch the …
