Saving Privae Ryan
I remember going to the movies with my husband and father-in-law to see the movie Saving Private Ryan, starring Tom Hanks. I actually saw some old men with tears in their eyes having to leave the theater.
The movie starts with this old man bringing his family back …
Sleepy Hollow
Last night was probably the 10th time I’ve seen the movie Sleepy Hollow. And, I have to say I enjoyed it as much as I did first time I saw it.
Of all the movies that are based on classic tales, this spin on Washington Irving’s Legend of Sleepy Hollow …
A Dog’s Breakfast movie
A Dog’s Breakfast surprised me a great deal because while it was as warped as I suspected it was, but it was also somewhat enjoyable. I didn’t like some of the more graphic parts and the innuendo that resulted, but as a whole, it was oddly enjoyable.
I’m not …
The Forbidden Kingdom
This movie was rated PG13 , its about 114 minutes not counting the next attractions which normally about 6 movies. At long last, Hong Kong movie legends Jackie Chan and Jet Li share the screen. Jackie Chan aha aha he is amazing and charming. It’s not worth the wait.

Shop Around the Corner (1940)
In 1940 Loew’s, a production company that ceased operation in the mid 1950s released the black and white feature “Shop Around the Corner” in English lasting 99 minutes. For some strange reason the movie was set in Budapest that somehow doesn’t quite work with Jimmy Stewards folksy, mid-western accent. …
Napoleon Dynamite (2004)
What you need to do while watching this movie is thank you lucky stars that you don’t know anyone like these people for if you do, you would be just as messed up in the head as they are. Then again, if you are just like these people in …
The Butterfly Effect
I didn’t watch the Butterfly Effect when it first came out. It looked somewhat interesting, however the fact that it starred Kelso from That 70’s Show sort of turned me off. I mean, it is Kelso we are talking about, who wants to watch him in a …

Fun With Dick & Jane
I didn’t know what to think when I rented Fun With Dick & Jane. I usually like Jim Carrey movies but I wasn’t sure if this one would be very good or not. What I found was, while it was a funny movie, it was one I could relate …
Edge of Darkness
Mel Gibson and Ray Winstone truly rocks in this thriller movie Edge of Darkness. The entire story is kind of run of the mill but it tightly organized screenplay and not a minute to spare pace keeps the movie interesting to a big extent. I feel that if it …
Night of the Living Dead (1990 Remake)
Gore maestro Tom Savani takes over directorial duties in this remake of Romero’s classic zombie movie.
There’s no monumental changes with this new version. It’s shot in colour, the gores a bit more impressive (but surprisingly much more played down considering Savani’s involvement) but there’s some tinkering about with …
Jack the Ripper
I saw this movie a few days back on History channel. This is the old version of the movie. We also had a new remake a few years back, but this was an old one. It has two parts that were screened one after the other. This is a …
Million Dollar Baby
I watched the movie Million Dollar Baby for the second time last night and, even though the movie supposedly got a lot of good reviews, I really just can’t see what people see in it.
Hillary Swank plays a female boxer who is trained by Clint Eastwood. And, while the …
The Illusionist movie
I am reviewing the movie, THe Illusionist starring Edward Norton, Jessica Beil, and Paul Giomatti, to name a few. Edward Norton’s character learns how to become an illusionist at a very young age, and falls in love with Sophie, Jessica Beil’s character. Sophie’s parents do not like …
Cars movie
Cars was a very funny and cool movie. I really enjoyed this movie a lot. I think that this movie was great. I though the little cars with faces looked really cute and were really cool. I also thought that the cars were very nice. I liked the voices and …
The Imitation Game, movie
“The Imitation Game” has proven to be one of this year’s top contenders at the more significant film award ceremonies. Does the film, however, truly live up to its praise? The film explores the life of Alan Turing and his experiences in attempting to break the ENIGMA code of …

The Wolverine (2013 film)

Maid In Manhattan
I love Jennifer Lopez as a singer and dancer so whenever she has a new movie I try so hard to be able to see it. I like seeing her as a chambermaid in this movie Maid in Manhattan. I like so much how she acted as a single …
Movie: Coraline (2009)
I had a chance to watch Coraline a few days ago. I have always been enthusiastic about this movie since last year. Being a fan of Tim Burton’s films, I certainly had high hopes for movies with a similar theme. Coraline had a similar aura; dark, mysterious and enigmatic. …
Tangled animated movie (2010)
Another foray into Disney’s celebrated fairy tale genre, “Tangled” is a retelling of the classic story of Rapunzel. I grew up watching Disney’s second Golden Age, so I watched “The Little Mermaid”, “Aladdin”, “Mulan”, and so many other masterpieces in addition to their creations during the first Golden …

The Cutting Edge Movie
Among the Cutting Edge movies that were made (there were three) this is what I like best. I have probably seen it five times already. I enjoy watching this because I like figure skating and The Cutting Edge has plenty of scenes showcasing some fancy maneuvers. It is funny …
Meet Me in St. Louis movie
When I think about Meet Me in St. Louis, I mostly think about Judy Garland and Margaret O’Brien. Garland is the star of this MGM movie from 1944, and she does a great job. She sings the classic Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas and does so …
Columbia House DVD
I signed up with Columbia House DVD. I got a certain number of DVDs for I believe, 99 cents each with the requirement that I purchase 4 DVDs at regular price in the next 2 years. I didn’t think that would be a problems. However, everytime I went in …
Movie: Tremors 3
I finally got a chance to sit down and relax about 8 last night and, while flipping channels, came across a movie I haven’t seen in a while; Tremors 3.
This movie, which is of course, the third movie in the Tremors series, isn’t anywhere near as good as the …
Deadly Matrimony - Part 1 movie
From 1992, Brian Dennehy stars in Deadly Matrimony in which a woman is killed, prompting Dennehy’s character to reflect back to three years earlier.

Driving Miss Daisy (movie)
One of those movies that I had always heard people talking about but I never got to watch was “Driving Miss Daisy”, and so of course I always knew I had to see it whenever I had the chance to. I didn’t actually know what it was supposed to …

Cabin in The Woods movie
Since Halloween is just around the corner, I decided it was time to start watching (and reviewing) some horror films! A recent, and extremely well-reviewed “horror film” that I missed in theaters so decided to rent was “Cabin in the Woods”. A family member of mine recommended it, and …
The Rock (1996)
I don’t mind watching movies that I like a number of times. This one has been played in our house and in some relative’ houses but I just kept hopping in. Not only because this is Sean Connery’s movie but also it’s Nicolas Cage’s and Ed Harris’ …
Resident Evil: Apocalypse (2004)
Once again, this game made into a movie takes the viewers on a wild ride through the waste land of the future that has managed to spawn zombie like creatures. The main character as you will see as you watch this movie as it takes us through a slight …
Oliver & Company (Disney Movie)

Hangman
I watched this movie called hangman a couple of years ago on lifetime. Overall it was a pretty good movie. It had a good story to it and a good plot to it. The acting was good and it kept me interested. It entertained me throughout the whole movie. …
Sky High movie
Sky High is a 2005 move that mixes elements of both the superhero and teen movie genres into an enjoyable, exceptionally fun movie going experience. It’s not the best movie around, and certainly isn’t the best composite of it;s two respective genres, but it is still a very watchable …
Rehearsal for Murder movie
I probably haven’t seen Rehearsal for Murder since it came out way back in 1982, but I do remember it. It was a very suspenseful murder mystery, acted very well and presented beautifully. It’s been done in other shows and such before, but this is a good …

I liked the movie “After the Wedding.” The movie is a 2006 Danish movie filmed in both India and Denmark. The 120 minute movie is in color and is in Danish, Swedish, Hindi, and English. Fortunately for me the DVD came with English subtitles. I don’t mind subtitles and …
Julie & Julia film
While watching this film, I was thinking that someone really interested in cooking could probably enjoy it more than me, since the film it’s mostly about good food, cooking as a hobby, or cooking as a passion. It might make you want to cook, or try the recipes. However, …
Stuart Little 2: The Movie
I was never a big fan of the first Stuart Little. The whole idea that two adults would adopt a little talking mouse was always a little creepy to me, because even though I think that mice are kind of cute, I probably would have run away as soon …
