With an all star cast and a killer plot, you cannot miss with this movie. It has an abundance of all the right stuff in a classic western, for example, it has lots of shootouts, loads of shootouts. This movie is great…just great, nothing short of what you know …
Disney’s The Hunchback of Notre Dame
A classic remake in animation of The Hunchback of Notre Dame. It’s wonderful use of colours left my eyes watering…and the plot was good. Good guys showed their courage, bad guys showed how evil they can be, and gargoyles showed they had no legs…lol. This is another great animated …

Valley of the Wolves, Iraq
This Valley of the Wolves, Iraq is a movie of a different perspective. It is a foreign film, and has artistic elements to it. My friend brought me to watch this, and it lasts for about 2 hours and 2 minutes.
This movie is not about taking sides, …

The original Creepshow movie by Stephen King is probably one of my favorite horror movies ever. I really liked this serious of mini movies. I really like the intro about the kid who get revenge on his enemies with a voodoo doll. I thought that intro clip was just …
Take the Lead movie
My husband won 2 tickets from our local radio station to an advanced screening of Take the Lead, the new Antonio Banderas movie.

This strange passion movie
This strange passion - or “El”, as it is better known - is one my of favorite films by Luis Bunuel. It is about a middle aged man who suffers from paranoia. This disease (as I would call it) is masterfully portraited by Buñuel here, using his own surrealist …

Movie : Teen Wolf (1985)
Going through a bit of a retro phase lately has made me notice just how much the overall movie industry hs changed over the years. And after re-watching the Michael J. Fox movie TEEN WOLF I hate to quote such a common saying but ‘they just don’t make them …
The Langoliers movie
As a young child, one of my scariest memories was made as a result of watching the movie “The Langoliers” one night. I was not able to get the images of giant meatball-like creatures with moving razor sharp teeth out of my head, and often had dreams about them. …
Encounter in the 3rd Dimension
I watched this IMAX movie, called Encounter in the 3rd Dimension, with my boyfriend, and it was the darndest thing I’ve ever been to. Now, don’t get me wrong about the movie, though short, (but isn’t all IMAX movies supposed to be). I was fed up with …

Unstable movie
This movie premiered on Lifetime Movie Network last Sunday. It premiered after there little event went off called “the perfect sunday”. I enjoyed watching most of the movies that day but this one had to be my favorite that day. The actors, especially the main two actors were really …
Movie How to Deal
Once again, I have to admit, I’m becoming more and more impressed with Mandy Moore whenever I see her in a movie. And, this time it was on Lifetime.
Her film How to Deal is actually an interesting look into the mind of a teenager. She comes from a divorced …
A Nightmare on Elm Street 2-Disc Edition
I’ve always been a fan of the Nightmare On Elm Street series, and in particular the first movie. The day they released this special edition, I picked it up right away and happily put it in my DVD player. Unfortunately I ended up being fairly disappointed. I know that …

Forgetting Sarah Marshall
I’m not usually a huge fan of romantic comedies. They’re OK but I get bored with them quickly because they usually have the same basic plot.
However, I have to say, after watching Forgetting Sarah Marshall, I did find myself entertained throughout.
The good thing about this movie is it offers …
Carnival Story movie
The world in the 50’s and 60’s loved stories about carnivals and circuses, and that’s why we have this film, Carnival Story, from 1954. In fact, I understand a German version was made at the same time and that the stars of both movies are seen but uncredited …
Funny People movie
Judd Apatow promised the world with Funny People and delivered an atlas. Not even a good atlas but a boring one without any pictures. If you saw the previews and advance publicity for this movie and were expecting a comedy, or even a few laughs, like myself you will …
“Narcos” Series on Netflix
To put into perspective, the duality of this Netflix Original greatly symbolizes the duality of the genre bending that it is standing for. “Narcos” is both a crime drama as much as a pseusdo-drama-based documentary. That might be a mouthful but it also makes sense why this show …
Movie Boby Jones Stroke of Genius

Police Academy (movie)
I haven’t watched the unedited version (as in, actual movie not one edited for TV) of Police Academy in years. But, after watching it again last weekend, I have to say I now realize just how good it was.
Other movies have tried to put together an insane group of …
WALL-E
When I first saw previews of WALL-E, somehow, I was not intrigued, although I do like most Pixar’s animated movies. But then I had stumbled upon some reviews of this movie online, and they sounded good, so we went and caught WALL-E when it was still playing in theaters.
It …

Twilight Saga: New Moon (2009)
One of the many vampire vs. werewolf movies that have graced the silver screen, New Moon rates among one of the better attempts. It had a good blend of romance, action, and suspense, while not overplaying the supernatural card. The mixture was good, but and it added …
The Incredibles
This movie was, if you’ll pardon the use of the word, incredible. And believe it or not, it was not because of the animation. It was the story that made this film so likable. So good, in fact, that I almost wish it were a live action superhero movie …
Wonder Woman - Superhero Movie (2017)
In the battle of DC vs Marvel, Marvel has come out on top due to the high quality of each film they make. DC has suffered with Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice and Suicide Squad- two movies that had all the necessary hype surrounding it but didn’t …
Avatar movie
Alright, I’ll admit it: I’m one of the few people out there that actually didn’t go to the movie theater to see this movie. I rarely go to the theater period, mainly because I feel that it’s just so outrageously expensive. I do kind of regret not going to …
