The Village (2004 Movie)
M. Night Shyamalan has another best selling thriller and decides to make it into a movie…bad idea, very bad idea as you do a very good job taking the life from the book. maybe he should stick to writing the books and leave to directing to those who seem …
New Moon (movie)
I am a Twilight saga fan, so I saw New Moon on the Saturday after it came out. I’d of course read the book and had seen all the previews, so I kind of knew what to expect. I’ve got to say that I actually liked it …

The Glass House Movie
This movie had a really nice title, and I thought it had something to do with the mansion that’s all made of glass and as I expected it was, and the owners here in the movie are actually Mr. Terry (Stellan SkarsgÃ¥rd) and Erin Glass (Diane Lane) who are …
Kick Ass: Movie
Kick-Ass is one of my favourite films to come out of the last couple of years, mainly down to how unique it is and its fascinating analysis of a wannabe superhero.
This superhero is just an ordinary teenager, and the story shows that. You get a good back story to …

Once Upon a Time in Mexico (2003 movie)
In continuation from Desperado, El Mariachi (Antonio Bandaras) has once again lost his love as Carolina (Selma Hayek) is killed. This time the gun fight action is lame and played out as the director has lost his flare and direction. The movie is laced with crappy acting, crappy staging, …
Apocalypto
Apocalypto is one of the best jungle chase movies I have ever seen. It has humor, suspense, and non-stop action. It is one of my favorite movies. I have seen it at least ten times. The movie starts with a group of natives hunting a taper. A taper is …
27 dresses
This was a ok movie but I think that they could have made it a lot better. It wasn’t all that funny and it was also boring throughout the movie. There were only a couple of parts that I thought were funny and most of those parts were shown …

Disney’s Aladdin movie (1992)
Aladdin was part of the series of Disney films that I love so much. It was part of the series of films that Disney made with its come back during the 1980s and 1990s. I had not read the story Aladdin was …
Limitless (2011) Movie
If I had to describe limitless in one word, I would describe it as intelligent. Normally when we get a movie that isn’t either a comedy or a horror movie, nine times out of ten, I’m not that into it.
Limitless is an awesome Sci-Fi thriller about a writer …

Inventive independent filmmaker Hal Hartley here gives us a story focused around lonely people who try their best not the appear lonely. A young girl who works at the local library falls in love with a young man who comes there to visit.
A rather simple story that doesn’t have …
Movie I know who killed me
Whenever I read a tabloid article about Lindsay Lohan getting busted for drunk driving or entering re-hab, I can’t help but be saddened. That’s because, for all the negative publicity she receives, she is actually not that bad of an actress.
Her latest movie, I know who killed me, is …
Clueless
I think Clueless was on OK movie. I was expecting much from it, I thought it was going to be pure garbage. But I was surprised to find out that Clueless had more to it than just superficial plots and stories. The movie clueless is about a girl named Cher. …
My Dog Skip movie
My Dog Skip is a sad, yet heartwarming story/movie. I don’t cry with a lot of movies but this movie made me shed a few tears. My Dog Skip is about a young boy growing up in Mississippi with his terrier dog Skip. Both the boy and the dog …
Baby Mama (2008)
Baby Mama is another new released movie that I’ve watched. I love the fact that my friend has some free passes since he works in the cinema line. I wouldn’t want to take advantage of his kindness but I really am a movie junkie and a book …
Gandhi (1982)
I really admired the movie Gandhi (1982) directed by Richard Attenborough. From the boring history books that I read from high school and from classroom discussions that did not give me as much information as I need, the personality that I had been curious about finally came to …
Zombiethon [VHS], Horror movie
Going old school with this review and I mean old school. Zombiethon is a VHS that features clips from 7 zombie movies. No, that wasn’t a typo from me; Zombiethon is just a collection of other movies. Why would something like even be created? Maybe the same reason why …
Godzilla: Final Wars
Godzilla: Final Wars is a Godzilla movie that is quite different in style compared to previous installments in the series. The movie seems to try and emulate popular Hollywood movies like the Matrix while taking a page out of a previous entry in the series, namely the movie Destroy …
National Treasure 2 - Book Of Secrets
I watched National Treasure 2 - Book Of Secrets on DVD the other day when my friend came over and we were trying to finish off some work projects.
I thought that this part 2 is going to be not fascinating at all but I was wrong. It …

He’s Just Not That Into You
My husband and I saw this movie last weekend. We went to a Sunday matinee and the theatre was PACKED! The theatre was full of mostly girls, but my husband didn’t mind too much. This is definitely a chick flick.
The cast was great. I especially loved Ginnifer Goodwin and …
Alien 2 Aliens Special Edition 1986 BluRay Movie
When I got Alien 1 on Blu-Ray, I continued my collection with Aliens 1986 Special Edition. I loved the original movie and when my fears were quieted about the Alien films being changed with the Special Editions or Director’s Cuts, I was looking forward to seeing what was added …

4 months, 3 weeks and 2 days (2007)
I didn’t know abortion was not allowed in communist Romania and prosecuted strongly by law. But I knew about the cooperative living in student housing, the muddy streets, the black market of foreign goods, the segregation of “educated” and “ordinary” folks, the fear to be a woman and walk …
The Medallion (2003)
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 …
FLCL
The anime series “FLCL,” short for “Fooly Cooly” or “Furi Kuri,” is an artistic amazement. The storyline is a little unclear, being a
three-way battle between main characters, but deliciously abstract and humorous. The plot’s hyperactive pace, and features that catagorize the series as anything from comedy, drama, romance, sci-fi …
Closing the Ring
I have watched Closing the Ring and it stars the very beautiful Mischa Barton and the handsome Christopher Plummer. Story is set roughly around the early 1900’s and Mischa’s character falls in love with this guy and they have a marriage that is considered secret and sacred to them. …
MosquitoMan (2004)
This movie was much better than I expected it to be. Don’t let the corny name or the image on the DVD case’s cover stop you from watching this fun horror film. And if you’re thinking it’s a bit similar to “The Fly”, you’re right. It’s a more modern …
The Big Chill movie
This is such a wonderful movie, but it will bore those of you who dislike character studies and want more action-packed scenes. This is the story of a bunch of college friends who reunite many years later to attend the funeral of their mutual friend, who committed suicide. …
Janie Jones movie
I rarely like the movie called the name of a person. The films of this type is usually a boring drama. Similarly when I watched the film Janie Jones. I watched with low expectations. However, apparently this movie proves otherwise. This drama gives something fresh, with a simple acoustic …
Terminator Genisys (science fiction action movie)
I stopped being a fan of the Terminator franchise some time in the nineties. I guess I just grew our of it all, but when I heard that another one would be released this year I began to reconsider and think about watching it. The newest problem though was that …
Overboard
Overboard is a family oriented comedy about a woman who has amnesia and the man who takes advantage of her. Goldie Hawn stars as Joanna, the millionaires. Kurt Russell plays Dean, a single parent with four boys. Overboard is a pretty simple movie with a simpler story line but …
Serendipity
In the movie story, Serendipity, I think the collaboration of John Cusack and Kate Beckinsale truly rock!
They are both extremely suited for each other in this movie and their characters together had a great amount of chemistry. You just have to see this movie to know what …
Merlin (1998 Film)
Jammed with magic and ancient times with myths and legends, the 1998 film “Merlin” is a film that many people can really get involved in. However, viewers should take caution in knowing that the film can seem to be dragging on from time to time. But Sam Neil does …
Day of the Dead 2: Contagium movie
My friends and I decided that we wanted to reestablish our traditional “Friday Horror Movie Nights” so we went to the local Hollywood video store to rent some movies. I was really in the mood for some old school zombie movies that night. After browsing around for …
Movie: The Best Years of our Lives
I had never heard of the movie The Best Years of our Lives until this past weekend, when I discovered it as part of a Memorial Day marathon. At first, I didn’t know what I was watching. But, it ended up being a halfway decent movie.
Unlike a lot of …
Black Cat Episode 4
Black Cat Episode 4 involves Sven and Rinslet Walker trying to rescue Eve from Torneo’s mansion while Black Cat tries to finish the job and kill her.
I liked this episode a lot; it was really clever and showed off more of Sven’s talents as a master escape artist. …
See No Evil
See No Evil is one of my favorite bad horror movies. I’ve seen it several times on my own and recently introduced a friend to it, only to find out that he loved it as much as I did. The movie has one of those setups that you only …
Transformers: Revenge of The Fallen
What can I say - the title of this review says it all! I watched “Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen” at Greenbelt Cinema 3 with my best friend and her son last weekend and it was, in a word, awesome! The movie really lived up to all the hype.
If …
The Marine
This film start john Sena who is a very famous wrestler. The story is about his wife being kidnapped by robbers and john Sena trying to save her. This movie is meant to be an action movie but it doesn’t have any thrilling elements. The stunts are quite ordinary …
Open Road movie
I am quite shocked that I never heard of a movie that has Justin Timberlake in it; somehow, the movie Open Road appeared in the movie rental store without me having ever heard of it. I follow Justin Timberlake’s music and acting career, mainly because I think he will …
The Nativity Story
I am reviewing the movie, The Nativity Story. I’m not sure who the actors are in this movie but they all did a good job. The Nativity Story follows the story of Mary and Joseph, and the birth of Jesus. It also follows King Herrod and his crazy quest …
Zootopia (2016 Film)
Rare are those animated films that I have to watch in cinemas. And in rare occasions like this one, I rushed my way into the metro traffic just to catch the last screening of Zootopia in my local cinema. I fear that I might not be able to watch it …
