Mad Max: Fury Road (2015 Film)
2015 was a historic year for me. Simply because it was the time when I took filmmaking by heart. So many good movies were released last year, so many that I was spoiled by the scarcity of quality films this year.
Last year at this exact point, Mad Max: Fury Road …
Dorian Gray movie
I completely forgot about this film until I saw it again on the front page of the site “watch-movies-online.tv”. Of course, since I hadn’t read the book, I knew the name sounded familiar, but I didn’t know what it was all about. I was even motivated more to try …
Up movie
We ended up having our family movie night Friday and watched the film Up.
I didn’t think it would be a movie I would enjoy because the plot seemed a bit too simple. But, it ended up being a very funny movie.
The first few minutes of the film are somewhat …

Dracula Untold (Movie)
Dracula Untold is a 2014 action, drama and fantasy movie directed by Gary Shore. After knowing it’s title I thought it would be some sort of vampire horror movie, but after I watched the trailer it didn’t seemed scary to me at all. In fact, I found the movie to …

What Would Jesus Buy
The most pervasive sin in our society isn’t lust, far from it in fact which is why it’s so easy for us to see, but far more dangerous to our society are greed and gluttony, and driving to that point in a humorous and profound way is What Would …
Da vinci Code movie
I watched this movie with my mother when it first came out. I didn’t understand a lot of it. Unless you know the bible really well I wouldn’t recommend the movie. I was kind of lost throughout the whole movie. My mother knows the bible really well and she …
Back to School movie
I’ve always though Rodney Dangerfield was more annoying than funny and his movie Back to School did nothing to make me change my mind about that.
Dangerfield plays a millionaire who decides to attend college to further his education and in an attempt to get some bonding time with his …
Blackout (NR, 2007)
This sleeper hit was about the Blackout that occurred in 2003 on the Northeast Seaboard. This movie was certainly hidden, because I’d never heard about it until I stumbled across it on Netflix. In any case, there aren’t too many big names. Sean Blakemore has a …
My Sister’s Keeper Movie (2009)
I just came back home from watching My Sister’s Keeper in theaters. I thought it would be really good, and I was really excited to watch it. I have read the book by Jodi Picoult, and I thought that it was a really touching book. I absolutely loved it, …

The Lion King
The Lion King is the greatest 2-D animated movie ever made in my opinion. The film has great characters and great messages peppered throughout the whole movie. This movie aroused everyone of my emotions. I found myself crying and laughing off and on the whole movie …
Little Miss Sunshine movie
When I saw the trailer for this film, I knew it fit my sense of humor - somewhat dark but also a little bit slapstick. All the film’s actors turn in excellent performances, but Greg Kinnear, Alan Arkin, and Steve Carell are especially strong in their respective roles …

Rocky Horror Picture Show
I have seen the Rocky Horror Picture Show two times in my lifetime; last night was the second time. Each time I enjoyed the movie but I found myself leaving awfully confused.
Let me start out by saying that, if you haven’t seen this movie already, you may want to …

UHF movie

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 …
Film Titanic
One of the best movies I have ever seen is the movie Titanic starring Leonardo DiCaprio. This movie is a great depiction of the maritime catastrophe that occured on April 15, 1912. I felt that the movie took me back to that event.
I thought …
Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix
As a big Harry potter fan I went to see the motion picture Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix at the local movie theatre. However I must say that I am disappointed. David Yates does not do justice to the book at all. I see it as …

King Kong vs. Godzilla
King Kong vs. Godzilla is the first color Godzilla movie, and in a way, I kind of wish that it was not. Both King Kong and Godzilla look ugly and fake as do the sets and the military tanks and other artillery. I also do not like how the …

Chronicles of Narnia, one big bore
When the Chronicles of Narnia, The Lion, the Witch and The Wardrobe came out, I remember wanting to go see it at the theater only to find it was always sold out. Now that I’ve seen it on DVD, I’m glad I didn’t waste my money.
I’m not really sure …

Vacancy (R, 2007) movie

American Beauty movie
The movie “American Beauty” is a great film that will definitely become an American classic. Millions of Americans have enjoyed the movie, but my experience with the film is unique.

Flashback of a Fool
When I saw the movie “Flashbacks of a Fool” on the cable guide last night I was a bit baffled as to how I never heard of it; and it was a fairly recent movie; especially since I learned after, the popular British actor who now plays the role …
Oklahoma musical
Oklahoma is a sprawling musical that has the most beautiful scenery. The opening with Curly riding along through the fields and singing Oh What a Beautiful Morning is a smiler. They don’t make movies like this anymore, and that’s a tragedy.
Gordon MacRae is brilliant as Curly, the …

Guyver, directed by Screaming Mad George and Steve Wang is rated PG-13 by the Motion Picture Association of America for violence.

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 …
Tropic Thunder
Tropic Thunder is the hilarious chronicle of the making of a movie about Vietnam where the director is ‘inspired’ to take his cast deep into the Vietnam jungle so that they can capture the movie in real time and give it a ‘gritty’ feel to the entire drama. It has …

X-Men First Class movie

Alien 1979 Movie
I’m not a fan of horror films. I get scared far too easily. So, when I was a child, I liked scary movies even less. Movies likes Jaws, Friday the 13th, and Nightmare on Elms Street were at the top of my list of movies that flipped me out. …
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 …
Moonstruck (1987)
Moonstruck is a great romantic comedy starring Cher as an Italian American woman, named Loretta Castorini, who falls in love with her fiance’s brother, played by Nicolas Cage. I have never cared much for Cher’s music or singing voice, but I think she’s an excellent actress and I wish …
Departures - (in Japanese)
I watched Departures the other day with my circle of friends and I was moved to tears. This movie storyline is so touching that it just makes you wonder what you would do and how you would react when someone in your circle of family or friends and relatives …
