Song of the Gringo from 1936 is actually Tex Ritter’s first movie role. He does a decent job as he enters the rank of the singing cowboy, which ruled the era in many ways. Being his first picture, he doesn’t have a sidekick and poor White Flash, …

Normally, I don’t appreciate it when classic stories are being messed with, modernized, turned into musicals, etc. However, this attempt to Americanize the beloved Christmas story by Charles Dickens somehow turned out all right. Based, of course, on “A Christmas Carol,” this movie transforms the Victorian London into America’s …

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 …

This past weekend, we rented three movies. We were disappointed by 2. We absolutely loved the third one; Mr. Bean’s Holiday.

The first time I saw this movie, I was just flipping through the channels and found this strange little movie on HBO. I sat and watched the whole movie, just on a whim. It turned out to be a cute little movie. A sad but uplifting story of a …

I rented this DVD to watch over a weekend. This film really ruined my weekend. A really boring film, with hardly any scenes. It should have been labeled as drama or documentary rather than horror/thriller.
The movie is about these 3 people Adam, Grace an Lee decide to fish in …

I was excited to see this movie and it was a major disappointment. I was excited to see it because it had vice Vaughn and Jennifer Anniston in it. It was supposed to be a comedy but it wasn’t much of a comedy to me. I barely laughed in …

I was really disappointed watching this movie and I can say it was a waste of time for me. I thought that it was a nice movie since I saw a lot of collectible items for this movie. I thought that it has the same theme as that of …

This has some spoilers, but believe me it is not that great of a movie, the spoilers will not be what ruins the movie, trust me.

I’ve heard some very mixed emotions about Shrek the Third for weeks before I made up my mind to go and see it myself. It took me this long, mainly because I did not want to be disapointed. See, I am a very big Shrek fan. …

The first time I heard about the movie “The Boy” was when I was search through the trailers for new movies. The second time was when I saw the trailer while in the theatre waiting for another movie to begin. The concept looked creepy, so I decided that I was …

I watched the DVd “Eddie and the Cruisers” last evening.
This musical movie was made back in the 1980’s.

played very well by Ellen Barkin, is a reporter …

This movie really seemed strange when I first read about it on Netflix. But then a friend rented it and I was so excited about the animation, and how the conversations just flowed from scene to scene. I would advise most people to refrain from engaging …

Some musicals are entertaining to watch and may even be funny. In the case of the movie Hair Spray, you also have a movie that is very fun to watch.
I’m not sure which was more interesting, watching John Travolta dancing and singing in a fat suit and high heels …

I grew up watching Disney’s movies like Snow White, Cinderella, and Sleeping Beauty, and I remember quite well that I enjoyed ever movie. So that when I saw the trailer of this movie, The Princess and The Frog, I couldn’t help to immediately recall the childhood of mine while …

Walking with monsters: before the dinosaurs, is a fascinating documentary. It is divided into three sections, each one covering a different time period.

Killing them softly is a crime film that takes the genre completely to another level. The characters and cinematography is top notch however, I found the story to be a bit on the weaker side.
Talking about camera-work, this mob film sure is a breath of fresh air. The joint-smoking …

Tex Ritter starred as Tex Martin in The Mystery of the Hooded Horsemen, a typical singing western for its generation. In this movie, he uses a guitar quite a bit. This movie does indeed have several songs in it.
The drama begins when Tex and his current sidekick …

If you’ve not seen this film yet - where have you been? Remedy this dire mistake immediately.

“Hold it. What is this? Are you …

Rock Rock Rock! from 1956 is one of those movie musicals that is more like an excuse to show off the music of the day. The plot is thin and barely there, put in the back seat to the various songs that are sung.
Below are some thoughts on …

If you have ever seen the first xXx (Triple X) movie, you cannot deny that it really did not need a sequel. This one stars Ice Cube as the new, more intense xXx. C’mon…this movie is substandard and really disappointing, not to mention, very distressing to watch. There is …

It is a known fact that sometimes a sequel falls short of the original movie and the fans are left disappointed. This is not the case with this movie.
The movie opened up with lots of action in the first 10 minutes and it was at first confusing why there …

Although most of the setting of this movie takes place on a plane it was still interesting to watch. I enjoyed watching the whole movie. It’s about a stranger who comes up to this lady and threatens her about her father and wants her to kill someone. Basically if …

King’s Speech is exactly the kind of movie I enjoy most. Very touching, perfectly acted, and a beautiful rendering of a historical event or personality. This is a film that has garnered much recognition this Awards Season and that is rightly so, because it is certainly my favorite of …

“Every frame a painting,” is a term that could be aptly applied to this movie. And awhile its fairly static camera movement could mean a slow-burning calorie to be devoured by any human being watching this, the results are staggering. This is a widely-fleshed drama of two suffering characters trying …

Being a former history major, I absolutely love movies based in historical times; especially when they are about legendary characters. Braveheart is a movie that has all the qualities I look for in a historical movie. It?s an accurate portrayal of the hero but still takes some liberties with …

I admit to being a bit apprehensive when I checked this movie out, mainly because I had not liked the first “Garfield” movie. Mainly I had thought Garfield had acted a tad too mean in it. But to my utter surprise, this movie was a real delight to watch. …

From the beginning, I was impressed with Dreamworks and their beautifully animated feature films. “The Road to El Dorado” is no exception, with its lively musical score, all-start voice cast, and enchanting animation.
It’s Spain in the year 1519; Miguel (Kenneth Branagh) and Tulio (Kevin Kline), thieves and con artists, …

A League Of Their Own is a movie about women’s baseball. Evidently when World War II was going on, the women were left to fend for themselves, literally, in more ways than one. I knew that during the war, women were leaders in the work force because all the …

The low budget horror film Scream Dream is a very sad attempt to recreate previous successful cinematic shockers. The lighting of the this movie is absolutely terrible, and the acting abilities are worse. You get a very strong impression that the movie was produced with a home video …

I watched the movie Hairspray, the new movie and not the original, for kicks and grins. Was I disappointed! I suppose that I should have taken my own cues that I was not too impressed with the first version of Hairspray! Anyway, if you want to listen to pop …

Congratulations, It’s a Boy! is a movie I recall seeing back when it was released originally in 1971. It starred Bill Bixby as playboy businessman, Johnny Gaines. Bixby did a fine job here, but it was interesting to me when I re-watched it recently that he looked tired …

After all the long anticipation into the final story of the super sucessful show Sex And The City and all the years of talk into making the movie- the final result was more than disappointing.

I don’t ordinarily enjoy period films. I typically find them boring, tedious, and kind of silly. Plus, there is usually very little that I can relate to in them. But when a relative told me to give “The Other Boleyn Girl” a chance, I …

Unlike its title, the movie “Rocket Science” has almost nothing to do with anything scientific. However, I till admit that the plot makes it quite an interesting and unusual teenage film. In fact, I’m still trying to recall right now if I’ve ever seen another film with a similar …

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 …
