Wild Wild West
I’m normally a Will Smith fan and I think the fact he stars in the movie Wild Wild West is the reason I find myself enjoying it; even when many others think it’s a weak film.
I used to watch the television show with my grandfather so I know quite …
Short Curcuit
Short Circuit is one of my favorite childhood movies. This movie is really good and so funny. It is about a robot named number 5. And number 5 thinks he is alive! The whole idea of him being alive is super funny! I really like this movie and the whole …
Fright Night movie
I first time I saw this movie was some time ago on the Syfy channel. I didn’t see it from the very very start, but when I started watching it, the movie was still in its early stages. At first I didn’t expect anything much from it, and thought …
54 movie
54 is a movie all about Studio 54, the New York nightclub that was a smash hit in the 1970s. 54 is not a documentary and is more fantastic than real so don’t watch this movie if you are expecting to find out what really happened behind the doors …
In Her Majesty’s Secret Service movie
In Her Majesty’s Secret Service was different to the preceding films of the series. It was a disappointment to many, but is in my opinion better than You Only Live Twice for example and certainly one of the most underrated. Sean Connery chose not to appear in this film …
Paranoid Park Movie
I have never seen a Gus Van Sant film, however obviously the fact that he is a well-known director tipped me off to the fact that there might be something worth checking out there. Going through my Netflix on a lazy Sunday, I discovered a movie called Paranoid Park, …
Accidental Hero
“Accidental Hero” is a great movie with a good story involving three great talented actors, Dustin Hoffman, Gena Davis and Andy Garcia. We have seen Hoffman in a lot of different characters; however I believe that there is something very special about his acting part in this movie. …
Princess Jellyfish Anime Series
Recently, I have been doing an anime marathon. I typically prefer either supernatural/mystery animes, or cute/funny animes. I go one way or the other. And Princess Jellyfish must be the funniest and cutest anime that I have ever seen. It makes me earnestly long for a second season, but …

Aliens (1986)
Ripley returns to fight off an army of aliens, but this time she’s backed up by a whole host of gun toting hombres.
The tagline of this film pretty much sums the plot up; “this time its war”, and for the most part, that’s what this film is; a war …
“Phone” Movie 2004 from Tartan Asia Extreme
I rented this movie from Netflix because I had pretty much seen all the other horror ones on my list and had become bored waiting for new ones to come out. I had enjoyed foreign films in the past, and always found Asian horror to be different and interesting. Like …
Man of The Year
Man of the Year is a good comedy. From all of the trailors I thought they would actually let the comedian become president not that he would get the truth out in time. I enjoyed the movie I just think it would have been funnier the other way if …

Life Support (NR, 2006) movie

Night at the Museum
‘Night at the Museum’ directed by Shawn Levy has very peculiar story which interests my a strange manner. In general, it is movie which kids will enjoy more. But, that does not mean that it does not deserve adult viewers. Ben Stiller, playing the lead role has acted to …

I love stephen King books, and I really like when they turn them into movies. We watched the Shining on Saturaday the one with JAck Nicholson in it.

Pride and Prejudice
Having never been able to become very interested in the book for some reason or another, I somehow found myself enamored with the film version of Pride and Prejudice. The romance between Elizabeth Bennet (Keira Knightley) and Mr. Darcy (Matthew Macfayden) is legendary, of course, but this film and …
Twilight Saga: Eclipse movie
I love Twilight’s third installment, Eclipse. I rather enjoyed watching it. I think I find it better than the first two because I find more action in it. After all, the vampire and the werewolf camps have to team up together to fight a new foe, …
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 …
Mona Lisa Smile
‘Mona Lisa Smile’ is one of those unescapable feel-good movies that induce the viewer into a reverie of real world idealism. The everlasting quest of man for the template of an ideal mate for life is presented through the conservative faces of the movie.
The movie is set in an …

Soul Survivors is one of the most confusing movies ever made. Yet I still find myself watching it every few years. When I do re-watch it, I still find myself wondering what exactly happened, and feeling highly confused by the plot. Then a few months pass, and I end …

If you love movies inspired by true events and documentaries and if you love action and is the outdoorsy type, you’ll surely love this movie. It’s based on real facts and it’s even much talked-about in the press conferences and interviews before it was actually showed because of it’s …
Blood Diamond (2006 film)
We have all heard about Africa, we have seen reports on the news, but we have never experienced it as directly and as strongly from the screen as we do with Edward Zwick’s new visually and emotionally competent epic adventure drama film Blood Diamond.

Superman Returns Movie
I recently watched Superman Returns and i must say, i loved it. I wasn’t quite sure if the new superman will be able to take the old superman’s place but hi-5 to the new superman, he did the character justice. You actually believed you were watching superman.

Incredible Hulk: Ultimate Destruction
I must say that I did not completely look forward to the film The Incredible hulk. This is because the first film in the series was pretty awful. There are a lot of things the Hulk can be, but boring is definitely not one of them. So, when …
Mickey’s Christmas Carol
I just finished reading Charles Dicken’s A Christmas Carol to my daughter and she said she would love to see a movie about it. Wanting to find a movie that gave justice to the book yet wasn’t too scary for her, I finally settled on Mickey’s Christmas Carol.

Transformers 2: Revenge of the Fallen
It is a known fact that sometimes a sequel falls short of the original movie and the fans are left disappointed. This is not the case with this movie.
The movie opened up with lots of action in the first 10 minutes and it was at first confusing why there …
Sherlock Holmes (Movie)
I had high expectations when I rented Sherlock Holmes on DVD the other day, mainly because of my high regard for Robert Downey Jr.’s amazing acting skills and his recent choice of movies to star in. I also like Guy Ritchie’s movies, so when we sat down to watch …
50/50 (movie)
With some of my favourite actors like Joseph Gordon-Levitt and Seth Rogen featuring as the main characters in the movie “50 50″. The expectations were high, because both of these had done exceptionally well in the previous movies.

Strawberry Shortcake DVD
As a parent of a 3-year-old girl, I am often concerned by the lack of quality children’s programming on television today. You can still find a few educational shows or cartoons. But, most of the things on TV, including some shows that advertise themselves as for kids, are a …

Running Scared
It’s like a mystery/suspense/thriller type movie with the mob theme thrown in. I honestly did not expect the movie to be as great as I though it was. The first 15 minutes or so, it will look like a cheap, predictable cliche mob flick, but it gets a lot …
Georgia Rule
I like Lindsay Lohan, I think she’s pretty and I think she has the talent to do some outstanding works on movies. So I always watch her movies. This particular movie is too interesting. She is the rebel daughter of a quite young mother. This …

Showgirls is probably one of my favorite movies of all time. A lot of critics disagree and call this one of the worst movies ever made. But the movie has become a cult classic now. I love the movie because it’s one of the only mainstream movies to have lots …
Netflix
Recently, I evaluated the Netflix rental service. It’s very much like that of Blockbuster’s, where you select the DVDs you’d like to rent, they send them to you, you return them, and then the next one is sent. Unfortunately, the Netflix trial isn’t as long as Blockbuster’s …
House of Flying Daggers Movie
You add a mix of deception and betrayal, throw in a dash of blindness and what do you have? You have another movie about a plot to kill the emperor or in this case, to kill the leader of a rebel group. Animation is good…not too over the top, …
