My daughter loves Hannah Montana (even though she rarely watches the show) so we ended up renting Hannah Montana: The Movie for her. Turns out she barely even sat through the beginning but at least my wife and I ended up loving it.
I actually kind of like the show …

The Devil Wears Prada Movie
This movie is considered a “fashion” movie that’s best applicable for young ladies and women who dreams of making it to a very glam city with a good-paying job, a fantasic career, an even-better boyfriend, and a set of girlfriends to share it all with. Unfortunately, this isn’t the …
Killa Season: The Movie
Killa Season is an amature movie which had a very low budget and very few cameras and when you watch the movie you will see why nobody should ever make a movie this way. Appearing in this “gangster” movie are rap stars Juelz Santana, Hell Rell and Cam’ron and …
Amadeus (1984)
One thing I admire about some movies, they capture the inner thoughts and sensibilities of people. And this is one of those movies. It centers to the jealousy of a palace composer, Antonio Salieri (played by F. Murray Abraham) against one of the world�s greatest composers and …

Kale feet are similar bracelets that will limit the scope move. If he bounds through a certain distance, …
Cats and Dogs The Movie
It is one funny movie that is a war between dogs and cats and in this movie the cats are the villains and the dogs are the heroes. It is a high tech war between the two most beloved pets and the battle continues on as who will rule …
The Hangover
I was fortunate enough to see the new movie the Hangover in the movie theatre while it was still in theaters. I saw it with my boyfriend and I must admit, it was the perfect date movie. It is perfect only if you are looking for a very light, …
Annabelle (2014) - Spin-off of ‘The Conjuring’
For me, most horror movies that have been produced in the last decade have merely used rehashed cliches and the same formulas to create what often turns out to be a subpar movie. The story doesn’t flow often and cheap tactics are used to incite fear. ‘Annabelle’ is another one …
Star Wars episode VI: Return of the Jedi
Out of the three original films, many cite this as the weakest of the bunch. They say that this was the beginning of the end for the Star Wars franchise.
This is for one reason, and one reason only, the Ewoks. I hate the Ewoks too. They …

The Butterfly Effect (2004)
One of the few adequate performances by Ashton Kutcher (who normally works a tired cliché part). Here he does an acceptable job (but not a great one) of portraying the main character who is able to move back in time and change the future. The movie is …
The Gospel of John
The Gospel of John is my favourite of all four gospels because, rather than focussing on historical facts like the other three, it goes deeper into Jesus’s teachings and philosophy. From the very beginning, it tries to explain the world through what later is was going to become the …
The Unborn (NR, 2003) movie
Ok I really really really tried to watch The Unborn. These kinds of films are typically right up my alley. However, for some reason I got totally turned off by this film. I think it’s because there seem to be so many Asian films wherein …
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 …
Gilbert Grape movie
Lasse Hallstrom, a swedish filmmaker, has spent most of his career in Hollywod, and Gilbert Grape is probably his most successful film next to The Ciderhouse Rules and Chocolat. Johnny Depp appears as Gilbert and Leonardo DiCaprio as is austistic younger brother. They have a hard life out in …

“Hooligans” movie
Football is a predominantly male affair. Fighting pseudo-fans it’s practically the only guy thing. Thus, in theory, for making a film on this subject should take a representative of sex ugly. And what if woman decides to tell us the story of hooligans ? Such is the case, “Hooligans”, …
Sisters of the Gion
Early film by Kenji Mizoguchi, even if it isn’t silent. Tells the story of geisha women in 17th century Japan. The whole narrative and style of the film is founded in realism and I believe it has been somewhat influential on later filmmakers. However, the film is no more …
Salt the Movie
Salt is actually both simple and hard to examine —“ and for that same cause. That cause is which Salt is really a business choice movie as well as from which perspective this works pretty much. But that does mean that it’s completely emptiness of innovative spark.
This is actually …

Movie: Precious

The mermaid is so gorgeous in this movie and acted by Sara Paxton. I really …
Movie Hell Boy
Hell Boy with Ron Perlman and John Hurt.
This is another of those movies that brings life to a comic book personality, but it is more of an adventure than a satire. I did like this movie because it had a beginning, a middle, and …
Nick of Time - Movie

Fool’s Gold is a movie that stars Kate Hudson and Mathew Matthew McConaughey, a follow up from their successful pair up in How to Lose a guy in ten days. I can say not a successful follow up though. Yes, the film is entertaining and funny in some parts …
Videodrome movie
Cronenberg’s cult rated film features James Woods as a man being consumed by media, psychologically and physically, in perhaps the most bizarre way ever seen. It begins as what seems like a very serious and slowly paced film, but ends up as a plain horror film with loads of …
MOVIE JOHNNY DANGEROUSLY
I had to write a review on this show: Johnny Dangerously. I HAD to, because I enjoyed it to the nth degree, and I just read a review that gave it a 2!
I think this is one of Michael Keaton’s best films, and it is hilarious! It is set …

The second installation in the National Treasure saga, this one doesn’t just pickup from where the last one left off, it has a soul for itself. This one takes you so far back in history that you will be amazed at what you missed out on in school.
Nicholas Cage …
Spectre (2015 James Bond Film)
A lot of people I knew were very excited to see the movie Spectre as soon as it was released. While my excitement didn’t necessarily reach their level, I was certainly curious to see what it would be about since my interest in James Bond movies had been rekindled over …
True Lies
I really liked the movie True Lies, I thought this film was very and it had a good storyline. I really liked the whole secret agent thing, and agents are always pretty exciting. I think the whole storyline about how the agent’s wife was cheating on him is not that …

Total Recall 2070
I have watched most of the movies listed under Science fiction on Netflix, but had never seen Total Recall 2070, mostly because it was hard to imagine a sequel to a marginally above average movie without any of the cast returning, and made for television could be any good.
I …
Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone
I cannot remember the time that I was impressed with the movie version of the book. I suppose the written word is just too difficult to put into action, but with the first book of Harry Potter, I thought the subject of wizards and witches should be easier and …
Blood and Black Lace movie
This is Mario Bava at his best. With a cinematic style that was later to become the famous “giallo” genre in italian film industry is here more or less invented by Bava himself. A hideous murder story, unpredictable shock sequences, poweful imagery with a lot of camera movement and …
