I have to start off and say this has been one of my favorite movies since 1) I saw it in the theater and 2) When it came out during this past 2006 Summer.
I have to admit that the movie is highly unrealistic on a few levels. One …

A film with Denzel Washington, Gary Oldman, an apocalypse, and books. How could this movie be bad? Well, ‘The Book of Eli’ makes it look easy.
The opening scene had me expectant of a good watch. I liked the way the film looked; excellent use of light and shadow, earthy …

Cloverfield is a movie about a small group of friends trying to survive an attack on New York City by a giant monster.This sounds simple and the synopsis itself is, however the brilliance of the movie shines when you consider how the story is told. The whole movie is …

While the cast of the 2005 film “Yours, Mine & Ours” is respectable and some of my favorite actors are involved in it, the film itself did not do their skills much justice and was a flop. I found the film to be a re-make almost of other films …

It is quite unusual to see Renee Zellwegger in a horror movie like case 39, to say the least. When I think about Renee Zellwegger I am coming up with images from Bridget Jones Diary or Jerry Maguire. But she did it, and she did it brilliantly. She brought …

When I was much younger, I had a sleepover with one of my aunts and she rented a video of a movie that she thought I would like to see. It was a few years after Jumanji was released and I never heard of the movie before that night, …

Well, actually, I had heard of …

I really love The Fox and the Hound 2, an animated feature film from Walt Disney Studios. I’ve never seen the original The Fox and the Hound, but this sequel I had to see because my favorite actor, the late and so incredibly awesome Patrick Swayze, voiced the …

The movie Zor released in 1998. I went to watch this movie being attracted by the songs of the film. But what a stupid movie it is. Alas my money is wasted and I get a headache in return. The plot of the film is so irrelevant, stupid and …

What I liked about this movie: I think the best part of this movie for me …

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, …

The movie “National Treasure: Book of Secrets” is a sequel to the previous movie starring actor Nicholas Cage “National Treasure”. Like the first one, it was also released by Walt Disney Pictures, and what impressed me the most about it was that I thought that it was just as …

Count Dracula’s Great Love (1972)
I first discovered this bizarre vampire film on TV in the 1970’s under the slightly abbreviated title Dracula’s Greatest Love. This is another in a long line of horror movies starring Spain’s Paul Naschy and his first and only Dracula film.
Some women find themselves stranded …

This was actually a pretty good movie and I was surprised that I liked it because I usually don’t like Japanese imports. Technically this one is from Thailand, but I didn’t realize that until I went to change the subtitles on the movie.
The movie is all about this …

One of the most classical musicals of all time is the marvelous My Fair Lady with Rex Harrison and Audrey Hepburn. I can’t even imagine anyone but Harrison in this movie. I’m so used to his style of talk-singing that it all seems very logical and natural …

Some of these earlier movie musicals are so hard to describe simply because the plot can get a little offbeat and quirky. Of course, the same thing happens from time to time today, too, but some early films just didn’t have that much to them. Let’s take …

I am reviewing the movie, The Holiday, starring Kate Winslet, Joe Black, Cameron Diez, and Jude Law. Kate Winslet’s character is a fool for love, but the problem is, the guy she love doesn’t love her back. She’s involved in a game of cat and mouse as he …

Fury is the story of a tank crew going up against a small German army (marginally outnumbering them) at the tip top end of WWII. The film features Brad Pitt as the lead and a sprinkle of lesser known actors as the sides who perform well enough to hold …

When Harry Met Sally is one of the very successful and most loved romantic movies of all time. The movie starring Billy Crystal and Meg Ryan as the lead actors is a very nice movie. I happened to watch it on cable few years ago and I loved it …

“Under the Mistletoe” is a nice, holiday movie and makes for a warm family event on any holiday, or for that matter non-holiday evening.
The film stars Michael Shanks as Kevin Harrison, a teacher and hockey coach. Michael is best known for his role as ‘Daniel Jackson’ in “Stargate …

When I first heard about the Captain America movie, my first thought was, “How can Chris Evans be The Human Torch AND Captain America?” Is the smooth-talking wise-cracking lady’s man really the right person to be playing the man who fights for truth, justice, and the American way? Director …

I wasn’t setting the bar too high for “The Muppets,” this year’s reboot of the eponymous franchise. I basically walked in with the mere hope that Jason Segel (of “Forgetting Sarah Marshall” fame) and his collaborators weren’t going to run it even further into the ground (1999’s “Muppets from …

I have been interested in the Greek myths since I was a child so was excited to see this movie, especially as the trailers looked great. Even though they now looked dated I have always loved the classic movie adaptations of these stories with effects by Ray Harryhausen, so …

Tschick is a movie directed by director Fatih Akin based on a best-selling Young Adult novel Tschick (translated as Why We Took the Car in English). It’s a shame I cannot find a trailer for the movie with English subtitles even though the film is released with English subtitles. So …

The director decided to go Vintage style and so this episode is black and white. Right from the start to the end,it is in black and white. Well not much of a difference actually,because the show does not sport bright colors,which is with keeping with the theme of the …

After watching the first “Iron Man”, I knew that I would have to watch the second one, which came out in 2010. “Iron Man 2” was not only as well acted and plotted out as the first one, but delivered an even more powerful character conflict and a very …

In a rare and shocking move on the part of DC Comics, they decided to make a good movie. Don’t get me wrong, they’ve hit that mark a few times in the past, but usually Hollywood people get in the way when super hero movies are being made …

Mirrors looked like scary and it is actually, in certain areas of the movie story. I watched it alone actually and Kiefer Sutherland played the lead. This movie is actually a remake of a Korean movie actually, having the title Mirrors too.
What is the story about actually..? …

At the time of its release, many critics were apt to complain about the casting of Grease. They thought that the ages of the actors, playing much younger characters, was a hindrance and that the film would suffer. The huge box office that this fun and extremely lovable film …

I watched this movie before it received, as it happened, widespread critical acclaim, and so I actually was watching it without any expectations. And I should say, that when I started reading news reports about all the recognition that this movie got, I was rather surprised. It was puzzling …

Dementia 13 is a movie that has long been on my list to see, yet for some reason I just never had the time or energy to track down a copy. When I bought a boxed set though the movie was inside and I decided to sit down and …
