Rain in the Mountains (2007)
As movies go this is best viewed with plans of lobbing popcorn at the screen from time to time. The plot was shaky and the acting so bad it was amusing. However, it is not entirely without merit for a small subsection of the population living in the Pacific …
The Good,The Bad and the Ugly movie
Sergio Leone created a whole new style of western films back in the 1960s with the so-called dollar trilogy. I am a big fan of these films, and in courting to most people The Good, The Bad and the Ugly is the most important of these films. Leone used …

Untraceable
“Untraceable” is a nail biting movie with Diane Lane in one of her best roles. What is so interesting about this movie is that it has a slow beginning but, later on, it peaks up in a fast manner with a heart beating ending.

Movie Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants 2
I was lucky enough to attend the special premiere for this movie. Not only did I get freebies, I also didn’t have to pay for the movie itself. I’ve read the books and seen the first movie, which was great. So I don’t know why the second movie was …
City Beneath the Sea movie
One of my very favorite made-for-TV movies is called City Beneath the Sea from 1971. It’s not a great movie in the scheme of Emmy winners, but it is a star-studded affair that has drama, romance, and mystery. I love it and find it to be a …
Traitor
The Traitor actually holds your attention throughout the almost two hours of the movie. From the previews and adverts on Tv, it seems like Don Cheadle is a “bad-ass” with some “superhuman skills” that he can turn on at anytime. Well let’s just say that that image was hyped …
In the Time of the Butterflies
In the Time of the Butterflies with Salma Hayek and Edward James Olmos.
The title offered me no clue as to the theme of the movie and in fact it seemed like a sensitive touchy feely movie. Since I try to stay away from these movies, …

Drive 2011 film
Before seeing this movie in the theater, I’d never heard of Nicolas Winding Refn. The film surprised me, and pleasantly so.

Vampire in Brooklyn Movie
When I saw that it was an Eddie Murphy movie, I expected good comedy, perhaps something like Mel Brooks’ “Dracula: Dead and Loving It” with Leslie Nielsen, a funny twist of a classic. Well, I was wrong. Apparently, the creators of “Vampire in Brooklyn” meant it to be for …
Death Race 2 movie
As any fan of Jason Statham I was reluctant to part 2 of the movie Death Race. I really do not understand why they felt the need to make another film on this theme. Well I have to say that I really liked Death Race 2 and I will …

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 …
Notorious (Movie)
There are four reasons I love Notorious. First, because it’s an Alfred Hitchcock film. I think he was the best classic movie director. The next three reasons are the stars of the movie, Cary Grant, Ingrid Bergman, and Claude Rains. Rains was the supporting actor, …

The movie Shrek 2
I liked Shrek the original. I really liked how different it was as far as a animated film. I thought that Donkey was hilarious and I really loved Fiona. She was such a strong female character. So when I saw that there was going to be a sequel I …
Quantum of Solace (2008) movie

Skyfall movie
The film experience of Skyfall, I think is totally vigorous; and energizing for the audience member. It was for me: that is certain. I believe: Daniel Craig in the role of Bond is a Bond character that continues to grow on you–for certain. At first …
We Are Marshall DVD
Sometimes, the unexpected happens when you’re watching a movie. This is the second time I can remember when I thought I was going to watch a sports movie and ended up watching a flick about the human spirit. The first time was when I saw “Brian’s Song” with …
Velvet Revolver live in houston DVD

The Mummy film
I don’t know why I thought this, but I could have sworn the 1932 movie The Mummy was a horror film. I mean, it is advertised that way and stars Boris Karloff.
However, I tried to watch this movie yesterday with my daughter (she likes horror films but I try …
Homeward Bound 2
I am reviewing the Disney movie, Homeward Bound 2, Lost in San Fransisco. This movie is a sequel to Homeward Bound 1, the Incredible Journey. Now, usually sequels are bombs and are completely unsuccessful. I don’t think this is the case here. Homeward Bound 2 was not …

Ironman
Before renting Ironman, I expected it to be a cliché, super-hero, comic-book movie. Even though I love anything Robert Downey Jr. does, I didn’t expect this role to show off his brilliant acting ability. I was wrong about that, and I really enjoyed this action movie, because it actually …

Movie Seven Pounds
I recently had the pleasure of watching this movie. I thought that the acting was great, they did a great job of getting you fully engrossed in the movie which I liked. It was a bit slow in the beginning however, but all of that pays off because you …
