Before Sunrise movie
The movie “Before Sunrise” is an excellent example that you don’t need to do a lot of stunts or spend a lot of money to make a great movie. This movie shows that a simple and straight forward story with two great actors and good filming crew can do …
George Lopez: America’s Mexican
I love the George Lopez shows, that air on nick. But the stand up I found kind of racy and not to funny. Some parts was more funny I enjoyed the childhood parts but overall I am glad he is proud of his race, but it got to the …
Descent (NC-17, 2007) movie
Man oh man, was I disappointed with this movie. There aren’t too many films starring Rosario Dawson that I absolutely hate. But this one—an indie—about her “brutal” rape was just strange. The premise is that she’s an introverted college student who is lured into …

Back To The Future
Everyone wishes they could go back in time to straighten out family disfunctions. But as this movie shows, if you aren’t too careful, things could turn out worse than before.

The Mask
One of my favourite movies from the mid nineties is a movie called “The Mask” starring the actors Jim Carey and Cameron Diaz. I still think that it was one of Jim Carey’s best movies and it was the best I had seen actress Cameron Diaz look in a …

Prometheus 2012 Science Fiction Film
I will immediately reveal that I have given this film the rating of seven, and it should instantly make a statement about what I think of this movie. I think that this film is good, but not excellent.
I would like to make some comments about the production quality of …
The Parent Trap
I could watch DVD movies acted by Lindsay Lohan a day’s straight. I don’t know why, but her acting is so good and with such a young age, The Parent Trap is probably one of her earlier best movies when she was at a young age that I first …
The Prestige (PG-13, 2006) movie
This was an interesting movie. Not quite what I expected. But since I love Christian Bale and Hugh Jackman–so that in and of itself warranted a viewing. However, this is a story that is relayed with care and precision. But I will admit that certain …

Arabian Nights (1999 Film)
Don’t be fooled by the title of this movie, because the 1999 film “Arabian Nights” holds much more interest and high stakes adventure with a twist of romance and suspense at survival of one’s life, than it appears.
In this film, Scheherazade (played by Mili Avital) is trying desperately …
The Expendables 2 movie
When going to watch the sequel to 2010’s action packed “The Expendables”, I was initially sceptical, based on the previous outing from Stallone and co. The original, while impressing with it’s juicy, gory action scenes, did little for me, with shaky stiff performances from Stallone and some of the …
Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen (2009)
It is very difficult for a sequel to make the audience feel the same excitement as the first movie, and this sequel didn’t quite live up to that… However, it didn’t fail either. The second Transformers movie did a bad job, and a good job of giving us …

Dancer in the Dark (2000)

John Wick, Movie
I love revenge movies. They appeal to our baser instincts and when they’re done well they strike us at our emotional core. John Wick is a superb revenge flick that oozes style and menace.
