The 1986 film “Troll” is in one word, eerie. Now, being used to the creepy and spooky bump in the night films of the modern day, movie lovers may wonder what a 1986 movie may hold in the eerie department compared to a movie of today. But it’s the …

It is always weird to see street kids from England. Their little accents make them sound so sweet, yet they are using language that is just as foul as American people. This movie focuses on a group of teenagers going to a school. One of the …

I was really excited about this movie as the first movie was really good. I was also expecting more added characters here and this movie was more exciting because of them. The plot is about Sam Witwicky deciding to leave for college to have a normal life and to …

I highly recommend this movie. Robert de Nero and Al Pacino play in it together. Both are great in the movie, they grab your attention and don’t let it go. You have to pay attention to the movie to really understand what was going on. The other actors in …

There is a reason why I love watching movies that involved epic wars, adventure and of course, a talented director named Riddley Scott. One such movie is entitled Kingdom of Heaven, a story about the crusaders during the early 11th century. Though it is not a recent movie, I …

I remember when the movie The Haunted Mansion was released back in back in 2003 when I was in high school. I had no interest in seeing it then because it looked like it was going to be one of those silly children’s movies. These days, I’m a little …

This movie premiered on The Disney Channel in 1988, but it is still one of the best movies that was ever shown on that network. Thirteen year Inge Dournenvald and Lise Mueller are best friends in Vienna, Austria. This is an amazing thing, because it is 1938, …

The Uninvited is yet another film in a long line of Hollywood remakes that were originally Japanese horror movies. A lot of these remakes have received a bad rap in the past but apart from a couple, in general I really enjoy them.
The pacing of this movie is …

I am reviewing the Disney movie, Toy Story 2. Like most sequels, this movie isn’t as good as the original Toy Story, but it is still clever and good. Buzz and Woody are buddies in this film. There is a new puppy in the picture, and it …

The husband and I recently watched the movie “Across the Universe”. I had been looking forward to it for quite awhile since I am a big Beatles fan. We were not disapointed and I was pleased to see my husband get so into a musical.
Previews of the …

I’d watched this movie when I was in college together with my college friends.
A very touching and heartwarming story.And I could watch it over and over again. I have to admit I shed tears watching this sad,sweet story of Landon and Jamie..My best movie of all time..
This is …

It’s hard to say who was more excited about this movie when the news first hit the floor. All the sugar charged ten-year-old boys who really just wanted to see some big robots blow stuff up, or the generations of baby boomers who remember it from when they …

When I first learned they were coming out with a live-action Transformers movie, my first thought was �Well, there�s another 80s TV show being ruined.�
From the previews, it looked like one of those films that would rely heavily on special effects and not offer much in terms of plot. …

Just one year after Oklahoma, Shirley Jones and Gordon MacRae reunited in Carousel, which is another classic movie musical. The chemistry was still there, though the ending is very different, in part by the nature of the story itself.
My favorite part of the movie, though, is the ending …

I had some free time this weekend while hanging out with my youngest daughter (it was raining out or I would have taken her outside instead). While taking care of her, I ended up watching a movie from the 1950s, Night and the City.

I skipped this one in theatres. I’d seen something else that Quentin Tarantino recently released, and I wasn’t pleased. But then I realized that Planet Terror is actually the brain-child of Robert Rodriguez. This film was so much better than I thought it was going to …

We watch a lot of movies and we enjoy the different types of movies that are available. Today movies are an art form that the tastes of indivudals decide how and what you are going to see in the movie theater.
Every once in a while it …

If you have never seen the movie Coraline and you have kids, I definitely recommend that you get this film. It is just a delight and I love it to pieces! A friend gave us a copy of this movie and even though we have no children, it was still …

I remember thinking that Bruce Almighty was going to be disappointing when I watched it, and I do think that it was a little disappointing in the end. It is not nearly as good as the movie after it. The movie I felt, was a little disrespectful to religion, …

This is the second movie of Rowan Atksinson as Mr. Bean, after the very funny and attracting ” Bean ” while, for me, this second movie is better than the first one because besides there are classical jokes from Mr. Bean, we can also see the beautiful view of …

Supposedly a remake of a 1972 comedy, this 2007 release is a vulgar R-rated flick packed with obscenities, gross-out humor, and no wits whatsoever. Prolonged scenes of rough sex are supposed to be funny, as well as disgusting smirks at bestiality. The major plot line is the same: a …

I am reviewing The Case of the Belligerent Ghost, a Sherlock Holmes episode from the boxed set, Sherlock Holmes: The Complete Series 39 Thrilling Episodes. This series was produced by Sheldon Reynolds and filmed in France in the fifties. Ronald Howard, the son of actor Leslie Howard, …

After watching a bunch of old westerns with Tex Ritter, it’s actually quite a change to now watching a few with Gene Autry in them. They are both singing cowboys, but they are very different, too. This movie is called Round-Up Time in Texas from 1937.
First of …

I’m not a huge Billy Bob Thornton fan so, when his movie Bad Santa came out, I really avoided watching it. However, it was on one of our movie channels the other day and, since there was nothing better on, I figured I would give it a chance.
It wasn’t …

The filmmaker Roland Emmerich have for quite a long time been renowned for his peculiar way of waving with the american flag in his films, and The Patriot is, not very unexpected, the same thing.
Mel Gibson is an american family father in america in the late 18th century. A …

This was on the television the other day and I have never seen it so I decided to watch it. Honestly it didn’t live up to it’s expectations. I wasn’t entertained or interested in the movie as much as I should have been. I became bored watching the movie. …

Working with the armed services of the United States of America is no easy task and it becomes even harder when you are employed to the person responsible for leaking sensitive information to the enemy and even more hard to be the one who is supposed to bring his …

I remember watching The Disappearance of Flight 412 when it came on TV for the first time in 1974. I bought it, hook, line, and sinker. I’m not necessarily talking about the UFO bit, well, yes, I am.
The truth is that I’m not arrogant enough to believe …

I didn’t get a chance to see the Polar Express at the theater and never got around to renting it on DVD. So, when it came on television Christmas night, I figured there was no better time to watch it.
I had mixed emotions about the movie. On one hand, …

I cannot recall how many times I’ve seen this movie but I don’t mind. I like this anyway. Well, of course I don’t buy the idea that two people could exchange faces considering the differences in their genetic make up and it’s not solved by simple facial …

Doris Day stars with Rod Taylor in Do Not Disturb. It’s not a big favorite of mine, and it’s not as fun or entertaining as her movies with Rock Hudson and James Garner were. While Taylor’s other outing with Day, The Glass Bottom Boat, was a winner …

When I read the short outline of this movie, I thought I was reading a news article. I just saw Miral earlier, and it was probably the only culturally significant movie I’ve seen of this year. To summarize, Miral is one way to understand the political conflict …
