Today (30/08/13) I had went to watch The Mortal Instruments: City of Bones with my best-friend at Hoyts Cinema, NZ. And boy was I glad I had paid $17 of my allowance to watch it! :D
The Movie in my opinion was a great watch. The characters they had to …

Labor Day is a film that I was eager to watch after seeing the many trailers on TV. I’m not one for chick flicks or too many sad love stories that don’t end too well. But Labor Day? This movie is what I would call a suitable love story …

One of the movies that I had an interest in seeing late last year was the movie “Premium Rush”. I had seen the trailer when viewing the coming attractions before watching a movie and I thought that not only did it look interesting, but it seemed like a pretty …

American Gangster is a movie that I went to this last weekend and I spent $22 for me and my girlfriend to see this over hyped movie and I was very dissapointed in it. The movie stars Denzel and so I thought it would be good but I found …

Matthew McConaughey and Kate Hudson aren’t really big Hollywood stars that’s why when a friend asked me to go to the movies with her and watch How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days, I wasn’t really very excited. I don’t like Matthew that much (his blond looks isn’t …

This is a stunningly good, stunningly beautiful film.
You will probably find yourself thinking “What?” or just “?” throughout. Occasionally re-winding to find out if you really DID hear/see that, or to find out the answer to “?”
Being moved to tears, then laughter, or both at the same time may …

NetFlix is an awesome way to watch the movies you are interested in. I became a customer several years ago when a girlfriend of mine recommended it. I was at her house, and asked what the red and white envelopes were on her kitchen table. She explained everything about …

Pier Paolo Pasolini was one of the most controversial filmmakers of his time, mostly for his extremely grotesque depiction of Marquis de Sades novel The 120 days of sodom, but also because he was openly homosexual which wasn’t fully accepted in Italy back then. Pasolini was murdered for mysterious …

“Viva Las Vegas” is one of my favorite Elvis Presley films. I’ve wanted it on DVD for a long time, so last week was able to acquire the Deluxe Edition.
The DVD container comes with a slide on jacket of Elvis and Ann-Margret. The back of the jacket …

This movie started off kind of slow and boring in the very beginning. When you get into the movie though it is really good. It kept me interested in what was going on. You do kind of have to pay attention to make sure you understand it all, …

In order to fully understand 21 Grams, you will have to be committed to watching this movie at least twice. After the first viewing, you will want to watch 21 Grams again because the movie is thrilling and very exciting. There is a love story between Paul and Christine, …

When there were rumors about this movie coming out, I was pretty sketpical on how well it could be done. Yeah special effects have come a long way in the past few years and we have computer graphics that make the most outlandish things appear real, but could the …

I simply enjoy doing reviews for old movies because you have the advantage of knowing how they effect people and very importantly what happens to the actors afterwards. “The Outsiders” is a classic movie that goes down in history. Apart from the fact that it is directed from the …

Stargate Atlantis season 5 premiere was one of the things I was really waiting for. With all the spoilers out there, I couldn’t imagine how they will make it work. And oh boy, was it worth it.
The episode is an immediate continuation of the season 4 finale. The building …

At first, I had a hard time getting myself to watch the movie “Cold Mountain” especially since I thought it would have been a Western, and I have a strong dislike for Westerns. However, recently when I was at a friend’s house, I found the DVD and decided to …

Horror is the one genre I try to avoid the most. Ever since I was young I always tell myself never to watch a horror film because all it does to me is scare me. And I don’t want to be scared. I don’t want to have trouble sleeping at …

When I came across the movie Blast on one of our movie channels the other night, the first thought I had was “I’ve never heard of this before.” My second thought was “Eddie Griffin in a drama? Are you kidding me?”
I originally wasn’t going to watch this movie but …

Relic is one of my favorite movies, though the book the film was based on is much better. The movie takes place entirely at a natural history museum in New York. One of the museum workers sends a relic that he found overseas back to the museum and it …

When I saw the cover for this movie it felt like it was a little boring since it has only a monkey holding a telescope. Nevertheless when my niece and I got nothing to do we did give it a try to watch it. At first it was a …

Similar to that of the movie Turner and Hooch, pairs the human element and the animal element into a movie to try to get a favorable response by the animal lover in most people. I have noticed that everything has its time in the spotlight and every genre is …

Recently I have found it to be more challenging to find suspense and thriller movies that I genuinely love that are set in some form of real life situations. What I ended up doing recently since I felt the urge to watch one was read a blog entry which …

From 1977, this is a B-movie, if that, that takes beauty pageants and makes a joke out of them. The movie is called The Night They Took Miss Beautiful and stars some very recognizable names, such as Chuck Conners as Mike O’Toole, the head of the airport from …

If you are looking for an adorable family fun flick that is perfect for a Friday night after a long week, and appropriately funny for children and adults, then you should consider the 2008 film Igor. It is an animated movie with great graphics and hilarious jokes and characters …

In the future, even the most critical organs in our body will be made artificially, and because of the high price tags, they will also be subjected to credit. And when credit is due, people sometimes could not pay. And when they do not pay, what they bought will …

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 Addams Family is a show that nearly every one in the world has heard of. When they announced plans to turn it into a movie though, people were less than thrilled. Once it came out, there were a lot of converts as people were eager to see the …

Watching a dreary film like Friended to Death has been a total waste of my time and energy. Directed by Sarah Smick and starring Ryan Hansen, James Immekus, Zach McGowan and others, this film has failed to keep me glued to it. Perhaps the director had aimed at shooting …

I think A Few Good Men is one of the coolest an funniest movies I have ever seen. I really like the acting of Jack Nicholson in this film. The movie A Few Good Men also stars Tom Cruise as well. I think both actors do a wonderful job of …

Song of the Sea is an Irish animated film directed by Tomm Moore who previously directed the now famous Oscar nominated “The Secret of Kells”. And he’s got another winner with this film proving once again that he’s quickly becoming a big name in the animation industry.

Like his previous work, …

This is the fourth film in George A Romero’s zombie film series (supposed to be a trilogy, but..). It follows the films Night of the living Dead (1968), Dawn of the Dead (1978) and Day of the Dead (1985). My own personal favorite is the first film, mostly because …

I am reviewing the movie, Sound of Music, starring Julie Andrews. So there is this nun. She decides to become a governess. There are the VonTrapp family: a group of seven or eight kids and a strict military like father, whose wife died some time ago. He …

Land of the Dead is the fourth zombie film directed by the master of zombies, George A. Romero. I am not overly familiar with Romero’s previous movies to be honest. My favourite all time zombie movie is Return of the Living Dead which has a lot of …

A movie so bad they decided to call it something completely different when it was released on video. Stoned Age is the comedy to bear the National Lampoon name. At one time this name met something but now you can see why the National Lampoon series is dreaded by …

Stargate was released in 1994 and it launched a franchise. Kurt Russell starred as Colonel Jonathan ‘Jack’ O’Neil. I have to make sure that’s spelled correctly. This is the single ‘L’ O’Neil, versus the TV series Jack O’Neill, which has two ‘L’s’ and was played by …

The Woods is a straight to DVD horror movie starring a group of random girls that have never acted before or who have only had a few roles. Patricia Clarkson plays the headmistress of a boarding school for girls, with a dark secret. Bruce Campbell turns up in a …

I decided to sit down and watch a movie with my daughter yesterday before she took her nap. After some discussion (I really did not want to watch another Scooby Doo movie), we ended up watching The Swan Princess. I didn’t know what to expect at first, but it …

The Dark Gothic film that claimed the life of Brandon Lee. One of my favorite movies of all time, as not everyday you see a corpse rising from the grave to right to wrongs done to him. Not a zombie type role either…but undead and kicking butt from corner …

I just love all that Disney has to offer and I wanted a DVD to remind me of each place I went to visit. After looking long and hard at each park, I could never find a resort DVD. Finally, I went on the internet and was able to …

I watched the comedy thriller “The Guard” last night, and while there are many things I have to say about it, I promise to keep my review fairly brief.
The movie was about the strange partnership of an FBI agent, and an Irish policeman with some very unorthodox ways, …

I had first been interested in the 2009 film, 500 Days of Summer, because one of its main actors (Zooey Deschannel) has always impressed me in other films that she has done. However, her character Summer did little less then annoy and disappoint me. I constantly felt sorry for …

The Slayers is an anime set in a fantasy universe in which a sorceress named Lina Inverse raids bandit gangs and steals their treasure from them, while using her magic to literally blow them away. After one of these escapades, she meets the dashingly handsome but equally dimwitted …

The Bag Man is a film which I did enjoy watching despite its technical flaws. What kept me glued to it was the fact that the contents of the bag weren’t revealed until much later. At first, when my friend recommended me to watch The Bag Man I had …

First of all, an admission. I had not heard anything about this film and would normally not see a romcom at the cinema. I only went because there was a free preview showing through Guardian Soulmates (strangely apt to see a romcom about failed relationships as a dating event). …

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 …
