I like the fact that Sandra Bullock in many of her films, usually plays a feisty but vulnerable sort of character, a real fighter, someone we can all relate to. “All About Steve” continues in this time honored tradition, rather like, “Miss Congeniality”. I was pleasantly surprised to find …

Very few sequels live up to there predecessors. Toy Story 2 had a big job on its hands living up to Toy Story which was a movie I cherished. So, how did it stack up? On par in my opinion. Just as good as the …

Mr. and Mrs. Smith starring Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie was a really great movie. It was sexy, witty and simply smoldering. I cannot say that I am a big Brad Pitt fan but I did like this movie. I liked how both Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt were …

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 …

Showtime was showing the movie 40 Days and 40 Nights again last night so I took the time to watch it because there really wasn’t much else on TV.

This show was made back in the 1990’s when these “stupid” comedies making fun of other shows were very popular. Yet today it still hold very funny. It was mainly making fun of Top Gun as well as other popular movies back then yet those movies have died and retired …

Mr.Deeds is a mediocre comedy movie. This Adam Sandler and Winona Ryder starred movie misses something which makes it not appealing much to the viewer. Though the movie has a decent plot and impressive star cast, it some how doesn’t manage to attract the viewer. It is the story …

I think that the best way to describe the movie “Serendipity” is John Cusack’s success movie as an attempt to return to his origins. We can remember that in the being of his career Cusack was involved in the successful movie project “The Sure Thing”. “Serendipity” is Cusack’s version …

Another foray into Disney’s celebrated fairy tale genre, “Tangled” is a retelling of the classic story of Rapunzel.

When it comes to comedy or drama/comedy, I am fairly cautious, as although the genre itself appeals to me, I tend to find a lot of so-called funny movies merely annoying or distasteful. The same can be said for romantic comedies, of which barely a few have ever managed …
