The X-Flies: I Want to Believe
I enjoyed The X-Files: I Want to Believe more than any of the X-Files television series I watched. I was happy to see the characters Dana Scully, Fox Mulder and Assistant Director Walter Skinner being played by the original cast. I think it takes a lot away from the …
Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs movie
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 …
High School Musical
Can two different people from two different worlds apart get together? A lot of stories have already answered that question, but perhaps the most popular story among them is Disney’s “High School Musical”.
This made-for-TV movie follows the story of Troy Bolton (Zac Efron), a basketball jock, and Gabriella Montez …
The film ‘Waterloo’
One of my all-time favourite films is —˜Waterloo’ starring Rod Steiger and Christopher Plummer, plus Virginia McKenna, Jack Hawkins and Orson Welles. This is a film covering a huge stage. Napoleon is seen being sent into exile on St Helena and his imperial ambitions are seemingly laid in the …
Eragon (2006)
Eragon, directed by Stefen Fangmeier is rated PG by the Motion Picture Association of America for fantasy violence, intense battle sequences and some frightening images. The original release date was December 15, 2006 for United States audience. This movie falls in the genre of Action/Adventure/Family/Fantasy and stars Ed Speelers …
Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles - Episode 1.2: Gnothi Seauton
Well, to my discovery, it seems that this TV show follows an alternate timeline after “Terminator 2: Judgment Day” and has nothing to do with “Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines” (even though “Terminator: Salvation” does). That’s good and bad in my opinion, but that’s a whole other story …
The MEXICAN,movie
A good movie that consists of Brad Pitt playing a bad man. He is into drugs theft and a gang. He is sent to Mexico to retrieve a very valuable gun. But in exchange him and his G/F Julia are in deep trouble. Many people …
Guru (movie)
I had recently watched the movie Guru (Hindi Version) directed by the veteran director Manirathnam. I normally don’t have patience to watch any movie till the end. But this movie made me sit for the entire 2.5 hrs. The story is about how a normal villager becomes a business …
Star Wars: Episode 3- Revenge of the Sith
OK, so I absolutely bashed the first two prequels in the series. And while Episode 3 does deserve some hate, it’s not near the level of hate I gave to the first two. Hayden Christiansen still can’t act and he and Natalies relationship is still one of …
Monsters Vs. Aliens
Monsters versus aliens is a DVD that I recently purchased and watched with my kids one day. I know that for many of us that have kids we are probably sick of watching kids movies all the time, but Monsters versus aliens is a movie that I could watch …
The Last Kiss (2006)
I always love the movie about temptation and choice and that’s the reason why I directly decided to watch this movie after watching its trailer.
This movie is about Michael, a lucky guy with a perfect life : Good Friends, Great Career, and beautiful girlfriend, just exactly what he dreamed …
We All Scream for Ice Cream Movie
We All Scream for Ice Cream is easily one of the oddest movies in the Masters of Horror series. This one stars William Forsythe as a clown who drives an ice cream truck. If you think that he is the one who is torturing people, you’d only be partly …
Play it Again Sam (1972) Woody Allen
Play it Again Sam is a 1972 movie directed by Herbert Ross, not Woody Allen himself, but it is written by and starring Woody Allen, as the highly neurotic film —˜Alan’. Although he did not direct this film, the humor is wonderfully neurotic Woody Allen at its best. …
I Know Who Killed Me Movie
I have no problem admitting that I actually like Lindsay Lohan, or at least I like her as an actress even if I don’t care for her personality or partying. I actually like her as a singer too, which is why I think it’s a little sad to see …
“The Avengers” (2012 film)
I went to see “The Avengers” with mixed expectations-I saw it in 3D, and was prepared for lots of the visual spectacle you would hope for from a superhero blockbuster. But the last film I saw in 3D was “Avatar,” which is a case study on how stunning visuals …
Baby Mama
I just recently watched this movie. Overall it was a pretty good movie. In the beginning I thought it wasn’t going to be all that funny. After watching all of it though it was pretty funny. I think that it would have been more on the hilarious part if …
The Monster That Challenged The World, MGM/UA Midnight Movies DVD
The Monster That Challenged The World was one of many “Giant Monster” movies invading movie theaters in the Fifties, after the success of such hits as Them! which this movie’s story closely follows. This time the menace are a group of giant snails-that’s right, snails-that start to …
Dirty Dancing Limited Keepsake Edition DVD set
There’s been a lot of press surrounding the Dirty Dancing Limited Keepsake Edition DVD set. Some people say that Lionsgate is milking the cult phenomenon to death, and maybe they are, but Dirty Dancing is a wonderful feel good movie that is iconic. It’s all about growing up …
The X-Files Movie
Highly acclaimed science fiction series The X-Files makes it first venture onto the big screen, with Mulder and Scully becoming embroiled in even more shenanigans involving the villainous Syndicate and the dastardly alien invasion plot they’ve spent decades concealing from the public.
Ultimately, this movie is a successful venture for the …
The Outsiders movie
The Outsiders is a classic film based on a well-read and popular novel by S.E. Hinton. This book-turned-movie focuses on two opposite social groups, basically the haves and have-nots. Regardless of what era life is in, this movie is relevant because the two groups always exist. …
Hellboy II: The Golden Army
Guillermo del Toro’s Hellboy II: The Golden Army, is a great summertime “popcorn” movie bursting at the seams with nonstop action and bizare, creative characters.
Ron Perlman was better in this sequel than he was in the original movie. Perlman brings a real level of humanity …
National Treasure 2: Book of Secrets
The second movie in the National Treasure Series was fantastic, even though I had never expected them to make another. And they took it up to a whole other level, it was really something. There was action and mystery like in the first, but less factual stuff, and more …
Movie: “RV” (2006)
Bob Munro (Robin Williams) works for the soda company Pure Vibe, but he’s become all work and no play: as a result, he’s losing touch with his rebellious kids.

Old School the movie
I sat down with my mother, we were having a girls movie night. This girls night movie theme was comedy. Will Ferrel is always at the top of my list for comedy movies. He did not let me down on this one at all. I laughed during almost the …
Movie My Life in Ruins
I was lucky enough to see a screening of the movie My Life in Ruins, but I think I had to considering it was a romantic comedy and I’m a huge fan of romantic comedies. It was pretty much what I expected it to be, though I still enjoyed …
Love, Actually movie
Love, Actually, is a very strange movie to nail down and categorize. Overall, it is, of course, a romantic comedy, but it is wholly unique from other members of the genre. Instead of relying on two star crossed lovers to tell its tale, Love, Actually, features a very large …
Jennifer’s Body Movie
I consider Jennifer’s Body as a teen horror movie. The film’s story revolves around a young girl’s weird transformation which changed the lives of everyone in their town. Jennifer becomes possessed because of some dark ritual performed on her, giving her inhuman abilities. In turn, she …
Stepbrothers (Movie)
I really don’t like Will Ferrell, but my sister-in-law and brothers told me this movie was good and funny, and seeing as I didn’t have anything to do anyway on a rainy day, I watched this movie.
The movie is all about 2 grown-up adults who thinks they’re still young …
Sublime Movie
Sublime is quite possibly the oddest movie I have ever seen in my life. Once the movie ended, I was left feeling very confused and still trying to figure out what happened. Sometimes that is a good thing, like in Momento, but it wasn’t a good thing in this …
How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days
I can’t remember how many times I have watched this movie again and again. I guess, too many times to count. But I am not over it yet. If I have to pick from a list of chick flick films that I would want to watch a rerun of, …
Disney Gargoyles
I have recently discovered Gargoyles, a lesser known Disney’s animated series, and I am now hooked. This show is excellent. I so wish Disney would resume making it!
The storyline is rich and complex. It begins in 994 A.D. Scotland, introducing us to a clan of gargoyles powerful …
Stargate: Atlantis 501 “Search and Rescue”
Stargate Atlantis season 5 premiere was one of the things I was really waiting for. With all the spoilers out there, I couldn’t imagine how they will make it work. And oh boy, was it worth it.
The episode is an immediate continuation of the season 4 finale. The building …
Step Up Movie
This is actually a pretty old movie and the first movie that I had ever seen Channing Tatum in. Now, he is more popular than ever, but when this movie came out, I don’t think he was all that popular. Anyway, this is probably the movie that picked up …
Definitely, Maybe
Definitely, Maybe is a movie that I think is fairly good. Not that fantastic, but doing pretty alright. Ryan Reynolds star in this movie, together with the very talented Abigail Breslin. Abigail plays Maya, a daughter that is very inquisitive and it’s fun to watch her questioning …
The Day The Earth Stood Still- The Remake
Yesterday,we have watched the movie The Day The Earth Stood Still. I was looking forward to see this movie when I was still in the Philippines, so when my fiance asked me what movie do I wanna see? I picked The Day The Earth Stood Still. …
Blonde Joke Videos
It’s probably not politically correct to make fun of blondes any longer, but I ran across several lately that made me laugh at least. They can be found on Youtube.com and probably in similar places like Google Video.
The first of these a very cute blonde video, or maybe it’s …
Hancock
Does Will Smith ever make a bad movie? Other than Ali, I mean. I watched his movie Hancock tonight and, when I got it I didn’t think it was going to be any good. It turned out to be a great film.
The movie takes a different point of view …
The Girl Who Leapt Through Time (Animated Movie)
The Girl who Leapt Through Time is a movie that tells of Makoto Konno, a teenage girl who discovers one day that she has the power to go back in time. I completely fell in love with this movie for various reasons. The first was the plot - especially …

Film Valkyrie
Being a big fan of Tom Cruise, I decided to visit multiplex to watch Valkyrie on the very first day of its visit. However, the film disappoints me by its approach and the way screenplay has been managed by the director.
The biggest disappointment for me was the acting of …
Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull
This past weekend I went to see “Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull”. I have always loved the Indiana Jones movies, own the first three on DVD. I went into the theater expecting something spectacular and I was not disappointed. For being a two-hour movie, it …
Girl Positive movie
I’ve honestly never sat down to watch Lifetime movies before. But, after seeing the movie Girl Positive, I think I’ll be doing that more often.
At first, I didn’t know what to think about the movie, which is meant to be an honest portrayal of how the HIV virus can …
Notorious movie
Notorious, this was a great title for the movie biography of the rapper Notorious B.I.G. I saw the movie about a week ago, and am still amazed at what his life was like, true or not. Notorious means widely and unfavorably known, which is the epitome of Christopher Wallace’s …
