I loved the movie “The Pianist” (2006). The Roman Polanski movie three Oscars and probably deserved more. The movie tells the story of real-life Polish Pianist Wladyslaw Szpilman, a Jew, who lived in Warsaw before, during, and after World War II. I found the movie believable and touching without …

I have always loved a good kid’s animation, but this movie really re-defines the lines in animation. Surf’s Up had amazing graphics, great animation and detail, a great storyline, and a whole lot of good, clean humor. This is probably one of the best kids (and adult’s!) movies of …

After watching it, I’ve come to the conclusion that “Amelie” is one of those movies that is so unique and enjoyable that I could find myself watching it multiple times. This is even though I’m not a huge fan of most romantic comedies.

The movie revolves around the very peculiar …

I have heard this film is one of Audrey Hepburn’s acclaimed performances. I personally believe it’s also the most critically-absorbing film in the entire Audrey Hepburn —˜genre’. The austere screenplay was very consistent to the point that it almost felt like watching an art film. The …

The moment the trailer of Mike Mills’ latest film “20th Century Women” arrived I became immediately excited. The sense of nostalgia in recreating the 1970’s again (even if I was born in the 90’s) excites me in a way that I felt euphoric just thinking what the film could be. …

Yeh Hai Jalwa, a stupid movie indeed but nice to watch at home. This film released in 2002. I watched it at home on TV. The director of the film is David Dhawan. As it is David Dhawan film it has to be stupid but mindlessly entertaining too. The …

Seth Rogen is my all-time new hero. I love that he’s shlubby, because his dry sense of humor makes him seem more attractive than he actually is. In any event, this is the whole premise of the movie “Knocked Up.” Catherine Heigl portrays Allison, …

I had heard generally good things about this movie, but I was surprised by just how good it was. It’s rather hilarious, but it is also rather sweet and heartwarming.
The movie follows Flint Lockwood, an aspiring inventor who manages to create a machine that can turn water into …

After much consideration I decided to review Spiderman as a trilogy instead of as individual movies. The Spiderman trilogy is different from most serial movies in that as time goes on the movies get better and better. I wasn’t a fan of the first Spiderman and because of that …

Rowan Atkinson’s reputation as a comedy actor is still as good as ever. What I can say about this movie is that it’s got good casting. They got John Malkovich on board. His French accented English is ridiculous but I think that’s more like it when …
