Springtime in the Rockies movie
Springtime in the Rockies from 1937 is a movie I have heard about for a very long time, but believe it or not, even with its marvelous song, I have never seen it, until now.
The song that is sung at the beginning is awesome. I love the harmony …
Movie The Ruins
I was quite disturbed by watching the movie, The Ruins. It is a gore story and in fact, filled with too much gore that made the story loses its plot, personally to me. Honestly speaking, I think this story makes Jeepers Creepers seem like nothingness. But …
Brother Bear
This is one of my favorite animated movies. I love to watch this movie with my younger sister. It’s a great movie for the whole family and enjoyable to watch. It kept me interested and entertained throughout the whole movie. There were plenty of parts that made me really …
What’s Up, Doc?,a movie (comedy)
This 1972 comedy only gets funnier as it ages. Ryan O’Neal plays Dr. Howard Bannister, a musicologist who comes to San Francisco to attend the annual convention where he hopes to win a scholarship for his studies of the musical potential of the igneous rocks (yes, that’s right - …

Driving Miss Daisy movie
Driving Miss Daisy is a sweet, nostalgic feeling film that focuses upon the relationship between a lady and her driver. Daisy is played by Jessica Tandy and her driver is Hoke, played by Morgan Freeman. Now Jessica Tandy and Morgan Freeman are two of my all-time favorite actors and …
An Affair to Remember movie
No, Warren Beatty was not crazy in deciding to remake the film An Affair to Remember, I have to say he has attained a certain degree of success. Now it is time to examine the real deal for what it is worth. In the heyday of black …
Ray Alexander: A Menu for Murder movie
Ray Alexander: A Menu for Murder was the second movie made with these characters. As a sleuthing private eye concept, it really wasn’t bad. I saw that because like the first movie, I didn’t have the urge to change the channel. It was an okay backdrop …

Bugs Bunny 1001 Rabbit Tales
I keep loading older Looney Tunes cartoons on our Netflix player for our daughter to watch after school and on weekends. One of the ones I loaded recently was Bug Bunny 1001 Rabbit Tales.
Much like other Looney Tunes movies I’ve come across in the past, this one is basically …
Scary Movie 2
Have you guys ever watched Scary Movie 2 on theaters before..? Well, I did and it was so darn and hilariously funny. There are just too many scenes to mention that I especially admire and the fact that the creators of the movie could have made something truly …

Friday the 13th Part 5
I think one of the funniest scenes in the movie is when you have a gorgeous blonde who is trying to hook up with a goofy, balding man. Every time I see the movie, I start laughing. I realize that it is supposed to be a small town, but …
The Guardian
I am reviewing the movie, The Guardian, which was released in 2006. This movie stars Kevin Costner, as Ben Randall, a US Coast Guard diver who saves lives for a living. When a chopper accident occurs and leaves Ben as the only survivor, he begins to suffer from severe …
Shaolin Soccer movie
I’m not really much of a sports movie fan. I don’t really like “Remember the Titans”. I didn’t even watch “Invincible”. I was never interested in watching “Rudy”. The only sports movie I really really loved was “D2: The Mighty Ducks”. Then along came “Shaolin Soccer”. This comedic masterpiece …
The Pelican Brief (1993)
Denzel Washington aids a young law student in trying to solve a very important historical crime. This is a bad move that leaves her in harms way, the powers that be do not want this information to come to light and they will stop at nothing to make sure …
Mama, film by Andres Muschietti
First-time feature film director Andrés Muschietti tries with Mama, an expansion of his earlier short film similarly titled, to paint the horror genre into a warmer, more fantastical light, whilst at the same time keeping overused plot contrivances as a foundation, so that the modern audience might not feel …
Goldfinger movie
My absolute favorite among all the 007 films also ranks among the best thrillers ever made. This time James Bond takes on the villain Goldfinger and his colorful korean servant Oddjob who plan to steal the whole american federal gold reserve in Fort Knox. it is also the first …
Underworld movie
I came to this movie with low expectations. I remembered reading unfavorable reviews of it when it was out in theaters. But I actually think it’s a good movie if you’re able to accept it for what it is - a fantasy movie about vampires and werewolves. …
8 mm movie
I am the real movie watcher, I watch a lot. I have chosen this film because I am a huge psychological/detective movies lover. When I choose to watch that film I did not read any review, I even did not know what about it will be.
In my opinion the …
A Monster Calls (2016 Fantasy Drama Film)
Some films are mistakenly advertised as fantasy movies - and you expect to watch these movies with that fairytale-ish ending you thought you deserved but instead you end up crying your heart out because of just how sad they are. I remember watching a 2007 film called Bridge to Terabithia …
Shame (movie)
Ever since I’ve discovered his movies, the actor Michael Fassebender has become not one of my favourite, but one of the actors who I’ve found to be most interesting. I believe that this especially stemmed from when I saw him in X-Men Origns as a young Magneto. I was …
The 40 Year Old Virgin movie
The 40 Year Old Virgin was surprisingly good. I thought it might be just a dumb comedy, but it was a comedy with heart and some intelligence. Steve Carrell plays the titular character without become a caricature. Sure he does some nerdy things like collect huge …
Tiger Warsaw movie
I remember vividly the conversation I had with the clerk at Blockbuster about Tiger Warsaw. I was in the process of becoming a huge Patrick Swayze fan and was renting some of his movies that I hadn’t seen. She warned me about Tiger Warsaw, telling me it …
JUNO
This Movie Rated PG13 ,it’s only 95 minutes not counting next attractions. Whow just who is this titular, quirky,sardonic, fresh-faced 16 or 17 years ol. Plalyed to perfection by Ellen Page. In the breakout performance of the year? maybe yes, maybe no. The opening minutes of the this movie …
Movie Speed Racer (2008)
Speed Racer is in the Action/Adventure genre and is rated PG for sequences of action, some violence, language and brief smoking.
Speed Racer is the first movie by the Wachowski brothers since they finished the Matrix Trilogy a few years back. The movie is an …
Iron Man
I believe that “Iron Man” is the best super hero movie for this year. What is really interesting about this movie is that it brings two great actors Robert Downey Junior and Gwyneth Partlow together on big screen for a great movie blockbuster.
In an interview, …
The Onion Movie
I have long been a fan of the satirical newspaper, The Onion. So, when they made a movie based on the paper, I had high expectations for it.
Too bad it fell well short of those expectations.
When I saw previews for the movie, I figured I would be watching a …

Beauty and the Beast
We watched this classic last week and were in awe of the production, acting and story line. Jean Cocteau directed Beauty and the Beast in 1947, so you know the movie is worth viewing. Filmed in black and white, spoken in French (but has English subtitles) with the best …
Day of the Dead movie
Perhaps not as seminal as Night of the Living Dead, and certainly not as loved as Dawn of the Dead; Day of the Dead often seems the forgotten third child in Romero’s zombie saga. But, whilst it may lack the crude and creepy charm of Night, and the raging …
Battle, Los Angeles 2011 Movie
From the point of view of its genre and style this movie is a rather unique breed. It is a kind of hybrid, a combination of things and elements which are not very often combined, with a special emphasis of its own. This movie deals with an alien invasion …
Transcendence (science fiction movie)
When the trailer for the movie “Transcendence” was released I have to admit that I wasn’t very interested in watching it. What made it even worse was that I had no interest in seeing the movie even later, since I was seeing too many bad reviews on it, and it …
ShowPlace 16 movie theater Naperville IL
ShowPlace 16 movie theater, located at 2815 Showplace Dr., Naperville, IL, is always a pleasure to go to. It is a large, fancy theater with comfortable soft chairs set like in an amphitheater, which gives a much better view. Even on a busy night with some big hit movie …
Movie : Angel Of Death (2009)
I really wasn’t expecting much when I sat down the other night to watch the 2009 movie ANGEL OF DEATH. I have to admit that I usually have a bit of a problem with movies that have strong female leads characters as the film-makers usually get it so wrong.
…
Air Force One the Movie
This is one of my all-time favorite movies which I watch every time I get the chance. AXN featured it this afternoon and even though I know this movie by heart, I could not resist watching it again. This is one of Harrison Ford’s unforgettable movies like Indiana Jones …
A Thousand Words (movie)
I’m really not a huge fan of Eddie Murphy’s movies and so when the movie “A Thousand Words” came out I wasn’t really interested in seeing it. It took me a couple months of yearning for a proper comedy to watch and a little bit of boredom to see …

Grace Card (2011 Film)
The 2011 film “Grace Card” is a film geared to motivate people to set the way for a change and for a better place where everyone is equal. While there were many wonderful moments in the film (including the plot itself) there were also a few parts that seemed …
Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps movie
Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps began with an opening teaser before the credits that featured Gordon Gekko (Michael Douglas) being released from prison, and it was fantastic. The mobile phone bit is a hoot, but the poignancy of the moment came when Gekko was watching the other released …

W. movie
I went to see this film because it looked interesting, I thought it was interesting they would take shots at W eaven before his term had ended. The movie chronicles George W Bush’s life, growing up and eventually becoming president, it is one of those movies where you aren’t …
