I am Number Four (movie)
While I still can’t recall why exactly this was the case, I found that I wasn’t very interested in watching the movie “I am Number Four” when it was about to be released. I had watched the trailer and just wasn’t very impressed by what I had seen to …
The 40-Year Old Virgin (UR, 2005) movie
I underrated the quality of this film. As usual, I passed this over in movie theatres because I felt that perhaps it would be just too silly. And this time I was right—but it was silly in a fabulous way. I love how the humor is …

Paycheck (starring Ben Affleck)
If you guys have watched Paycheck (starring Ben Affleck) before, you will be surprised to know that it is a very good movie, but with a science-fiction genre. I really categorize this movie as fiction because I can never imagine this movie to be other than that at all. …
Eight Mile movie
Before watching this movie I really did not have too much background on rap nor did it really strike me as something that is hard to do-just a bunch of aimless words being spoken with a beat. Featuring Eminem, this movie is about his story and how he made …

The film begins with Max Payne (Mark Wahlberg) who drowned in the water, either dead or alive. Then switch to the movies before the accident. Told his wife and children, Max is still a baby killed .. Max is burning revenge, who continue to seek the killer. To find …
The Other Sister movie
“The Other Sister” is my favorite movie of all time. The acting in this movie couldn’t get much better. This movie features outstanding performances from Juliette Lewis, Diane Keaton, Tom Skerritt, and Giovanni Ribisi. I absolutely adored the expression and naivety played by both Juliette Lewis and Giovanni Ribisi. …
Die Hard movie
It took me a very long time to watch the movie “Die Hard” since after seeing it advertise on cable television, and hearing people, including of of my friends in particular talk about it, I thought it would be another one of those action movies with lots of action …
The Medallion (2003)
Is it me, or is it a case that of late, every single movie that Jackie Chan stars in, he plays the role of a police officer or some other enforcement officer that happens to get caught on the wrong side of the law. I do not think it’s …
The Abyss
The Abyss is a James Cameron movie, the one which directed Titanic, and I just have one question for the guy. Is he so interested in the elements of deep sea..? That’s what I felt when I watched The Abyss. It sort of rhymes and intertwined and …

This film came out the same year as …
Hills Have Eyes 2, The (2007)
The Hills Have Eyes is a sequel to the first. I felt the first was a pretty good movie, and I felt the same about this one, because it continued the storyline from the first, explaining the reason for the mutants attacks on everyone.
These “mutants” have been a victim …
The Illusionist
The best thing this movie had going for it was the cast. Top rated actors putting on exceptionally fine performances kept this movie from being confused with its contemporary counterpart. The Prestige. Edward Norton always does well, no matter what role he plays. He is what I call an …
Red Cliff movie
The title of the movie does not give away much about the movie itself, although it will give you an idea that it is a place or location which will be significant in the movie.
Basically, this is a war movie set in ancient China wherein a very powerful Prime …
Zero for Conduct
Jean Vigo was one of the most beloved filmmakers of the early sound years, but unfortunately his career was way too short with only two full feature films. Vigo suffered from poor health from a very young age and died from tuberculosis in 1934, only 29 years of age. …
The Bank Job (2007 version)
Who ever said that the movie, “The Bank Job” directed by Estonian director, Brad Jurjens is a good movie, well he/she doesn’t know what they are talking about. This supposed to be dramatic movie has a good story, but the end result is really horrible due to the way …
Transformers the Movie
we went to the theater last summer to see the movie that my son had comic books on from when he was a child. He used to watch the cartoon Transformers on Saturaday morning and like a lot of kids had the toys that went along with the …
Airplane! film
In terms of Parodies, Airplane! is my absolute favorite. You will be rolling on the floor with laughter the entire film. Starring funny actors Peter Graves, Lloyd Bridges, Robert Hays, and Leslie Nielsen, this movie is not just a classic one, but an entertaining one.
An airplane crew suddenly becomes …
The Thing About My Folks,2005 movie
I am surprised that I haven’t really heard anything about this movie when it was released. It is a good movie that deserves more attention. Peter Falk plays Sam Kleinman, a hard-working husband and an absentee father whose wife Muriel (Olympia Dukakis) finally leaves him after 50 years of …
Michael Jackson’s This Is It 2009 Movie
If you love Michael Jackson’s music, singing and dancing, you will love —˜This Is It’ as he is clearly on top form, despite the fact that this was only filmed last year - in 2009! Due to the fact that he only sang a few lines of —˜We …
Charlie Wilsons War
I watched this movie not to long ago. Tom Hanks, Amy Adams, Julia Roberts all played in Charlie Wilson’s War. It was about the cold war, Afghanistan and Russia. It was entertaining and kept me interested the whole movie. I think it probably could have ended better. I felt …
Them!
My daughter wanted to watch a movie with me yesterday but I was getting a bit sick of cartoons. I ended up making her a deal. I told her I would watch a movie with her but it had to be the black and white horror movie “Them!” She …
8 MM (1999)
I did not enjoy all the scenes I saw in this movie but for me this movie is a good one because it teaches the viewers that there are things that are totally disagreeable in the hiding. It also gives us the idea that things are not …
Street Kings movie
Keanu Reeves has pulled off another great movie. Keanu Reeves has shown that he can stand in other films besides the Matrix and romance films. My wife and I went to see this movie without knowing what to expect. Although the action seemed a little shy in this …
Bad Boys II Movie
This movie is an action-packed movie starring Will Smith and Martin Lawrence and I really liked how Michael Bay directed the movie; it wasn’t too exaggerated and there weren’t any boring parts and even though there were scenes that were really extravagant and too impossible to happen in real …
Bewitched (2005)
Almost to be filed under the category of guilty pleasure is the 2005 movie “Bewitched” featuring Nicole Kidman, except that it wasn’t that much of a pleasure. I grew up watching the television show starring Elizabeth Montgomery and was curious about how the film version might be. Typically I …
The Chronicles of Narnia
If you really want your children to enjoy watching a good fantasy movie, than I recommand “The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe”. This movie has the right ingredients to ensure that every child will enjoy watching it.
I must also add that “The Chronicles of …
Glory Road movie
I am reviewing the basketball movie, Glory Road, starring Josh Lucas. There’s a basketball coach. He teaches girls. Then one day he is offered a job to teach in Texas. It is the 1960s. He decides to get a group of African American players together and form …
Robots animated movie
I love to watch animated movies, think they are really cool, and these days I can say that animated movies are getting more successful than the real movies. Few days back I saw a new animated movie called “Robots”. It was really a cute movie to watch. The story …

London - (starring Jessica Biel)
I watched London starring Jessica Biel the other day and it’s not really that bad a movie story. Chris Evans star too and in this DVD movie story that I watched, it’s basically about Chris Evans and he act as the character Syd. He is a guy that …
Greystone Inscription
I am reviewing The Case of the Greystone Inscription, a Sherlock Holmes episode from the boxed set, Sherlock Holmes: The Complete Series 39 Thrilling Episodes. This series was produced by Sheldon Reynolds and filmed in France in the fifties. Ronald Howard, the son of actor Leslie Howard, …
Village of the Damned
It had been ages since I saw the classic movie Village of the Damned. So, when it came on one of the movie channels over the weekend, I had to sit down and watch it again.
Somehow, it wasn’t as scary as I remembered it.
Even though it’s really never explained …
Celebrity movie
It took me quite a very long time to watch the movie celebrity since I have never been interested in the actor Woody Allen as I can remember trying to watch several of his films when I was a little girl and thinking all of them were excrutiatingly boring. …
Bloodsport movie
I’m not a hugh Jean-Claude Van Damme fan so when I watched this movie, I was already thinking I wasn’t going to be impressed by it. I was right.
It was an OK movie but you could tell it was made in the late 80s when karate movies were becoming …
Ma and Pa Kettle at the Fair
Marjorie Main and Percy Kilbride return for their fourth straight movie as this lovable couple from the country. Though much is made out of their large family, the kids aren’t seen all that much. There is a focus on one of the older children, though, named Rosie. …
Coming to America Movie
This will be my classic and all-time favorite Eddie Murphy movie! This features Eddie Murphy as the prince of a very small country and his father, James Earl Jones, wants him to marry a princess which he doesn’t love nor nearly like. Wanting to have some freedom of his …
Zombeavers, horror movie
With a movie title like this, you have a pretty good idea of what sort of movie you’re in for. This isn’t going to be a good movie in the traditional sense, although that doesn’t necessarily mean that it won’t be an entertaining one.
Odd as it may sound, it …
Movie Monsters Inc.
Mike (Billy Crystal), a huge eyeball, and Sulley (John Goodman), a large blue-furred beast, work together at a factory known as Monster Inc. in a dimension where everyone is a monster and the screams of frightened children fuel their power supply. Sulley is known as the top scarer at …
New York Minute movie
“New York Minute” is a movie by the Olsen’s sisters which includes action, romance, sentimental moments addressed for all the family. Sadly for them this movie was a big box office flop and they also ended up being nominated for the Razzie Awards.
Why “New York Minute” failed to inspire …
Breach
The best way to describe the movie “Breach” is a Bourne story without the action. Based on a true story, “Breach” has a great cast of actors Chris Cooper, Ryan Phillippe and Laura Linney. The true pity is that this movie was released in the same year …
Movie Street kings
This was an excellent movie and I would recommend it to anyone. It has keanuu reeves and some other good actors in it. They are all LAPD, or cops in the movie. It’s hard to explain what the movie is about but I really liked it and so did …
Pirates of the Caribbean 3
Pirates of the Caribbean: At World’s End is what we have all been waiting for; the second of two films in a vastly growing franchise that we have all grown to love Or not.
The original film was fantastic. It’s sequel, Dead Man�s Chest had potential but seemed, quite …
Jerry Maguire
I watched the movie Jerry Maguire for about the third or fourth time last night and have to say, while a good movie, it could have been much better.
I liked the idea of a movie that focuses on the part of professional sports most films barely even mention; sports …
The Notebook movie
Although I don’t watch as much romantic movies as I do action/adventure thrillers, I saw The Notebook and I totally loved it. It really made me cry. It’s about Allie Hamilton (Rachel McAdams), a young, wealthy teenage girl who vacations with her family to North Carolina. There she meets …
The Hangover II Movie (2011)
I just saw the movie the Hangover 2. It is the sequel to the first movie, The Hangover, which stars Bradley Cooper, Zach Galifianakis and Ed Helms. Essentially this movie is about a Bachelor’s party in Thailand gone wrong. As with the last Hangover movie, this time, the …
White Men Can’t Jump
I think White Men Can’t Jump was a great movie. Now I love playing basketball, and I used to play a lot of basketball as a kid. And I think that is part of the reason I love this movie. I also have always been a Wesley Snipes fan. I …
Poltergeist - Supernatural Horror Movie (2015)
As far as horror movies go, Poltergeist is not a movie I’m planning to watch again. It’s a remake of the 1982 movie, Poltergeist, and from what I hear, the original is way better. Although I watched this in 3D in theaters, there were very few scares to boast of …
