Movies Reviews
S.W.A.T movie
This movie stars Samuel L. Jackson, Colin Farrell, Michelle Rodriguez and LL Cool J. This is really a good movie and everyone can just learn a lot from it. Everyone can truly appreciate the work of SWAT members.
Jim Street (Colin Farrell) made a big mistake in his mission when …
The Butcher Movie
The thing about slasher movies is they normally are good if you’re looking for a good laugh or just like watching a lot of blood and gore. But, as far as being scary, most fall well short of expectations.
I had never heard of the movie The Butcher before so …
Just Married
Just Married s a nice romantic comedy movie starring Ashton Kutcher and Brittany Murphy. Though I can say that it is not a great movie, one can watch it without getting bored and have few hearty laughs throughout the movie. The opening scenes of the movie itself are very …
Starship Troopers 2: Hero of the Federation (movie 2004)
This is not the sequesl that we were all hoping and looking forward to seeing. What the hell happened is beyond my comprehension as the missed the target….way off. Taking into consideration where the last movie ended, the second installation did not pick up from that point as I …
Run Lola Run - Movie (Watch Lola Watch)
The first time I picked this up, it was displayed on the bottom shelve in the library. I remember that it stared that chick from “The Bourne Identity” (Franka Potente).
I decided to watch the trailer and had no idea what the plot was about, other than the fact it’s …
Groundhog Day movie
Bill Murray, who in my opinion is the greatest comedian since Groucho Marx, appears in the film a journalist who has to relive a day over and over. Apparently there is something he does wrong in this did and he tries to figure out what it is, but as …
A Perry Mason Mystery: The Case of the Jealous Jokester movie
When Raymond Burr couldn’t film his role as Perry Mason, several movies for television were produced without him, utilizing other Hollywood stars as A-class lawyers. I really wished they hadn’t done that. It was a waste and a sham. They would have done better to have …
Disturbia (movie)
Disturbia is a movie about a teenage boy who is a rebel filled with anger. Kale, the main character, is still grieving over the death of his father and pretty much anything to do with the subject gets Kale fired up. Because of an altercation at school, Kale is …

This movie, similar the La Femme Nikita, tells the story of a young woman with a violent nature who was taken off the streets after she was caught and arrested for violent crimes. It was staged that she was executed by lethal injection, when in actuality; she was transferred …
My Blue Heaven
This past weekend was the first time I had a chance to sit down and watch the movie My Blue Heaven. It was an OK film but it wasn’t as good as I expected it to be and almost a waste of my time this past weekend.
I’m usually a …
Elizabethtown
I watched Elizabethtown the other night and I must say that on the cover of the DVD, Orlando Bloom looks so very much not handsome at all. But once I watch the story, I was like he’s the most sexiest and handsomest guy ever! That’s something like truly …
Movie Frankenstein’s Bloody Terror
At long last a DVD release for this Saturday afternoon television staple!
Well, TV staple in the USA. In Spain and the rest of Europe, this marked Paul Naschy’s first film of the Waldermar Danisky the Werewolf series under the title Mark of the Wolfman (Marca Del Hombre Lobo)
The history …

From Hell Movie
Poor Alan Moore. He created some of the most visionary graphic novels to ever see print and the film adaptations almost always disappoint. LEAGUE OF EXTRAORDINARY GENTLEMEN went from adventure satire to an X-MEN clone. V FOR VENDETTA went from chilling vision of the future to pushing political themes …
Girl Positive (movie)
As I mentioned previously I love watching some Lifetime movies even though a lot of them aren’t necessarily up to par when it comes to acting, writing and directing. Even the storylines at time don’t even add up. However, when I watched the movie “Girl, Positive”, it was definitely …
Get Smart
I recently watched the show Get Smart in re-runs and thought it was a fantastic show. So, when I had an opportunity to rent the movie based on the series, I figured I would give is a shot.
I have to say, the film Get Smart is absolutely hillarious.
Whenever you …
Heartbreakers movie
Another movie my wife and I ended up watching last night was the film “Heartbreakers”. I liked this movie when it first came out but have to admit it loses some of its charm the second time you see it.
Sigourney Weaver and Jennifer Love Hewitt play a mother/daughter pair …

African Cats 2011 Disneynature Movie
Disneynature. When I first heard about the addition to the Disney name, I was unsure of it. Yet after seeing African Cats which was released in 2011, I fell in love with the studio. I couldn’t wait to see the other documentaries that were made under the studio’s name. …

Autopsy movie 2008
Autopsy is a film from After Dark, aka the famous After Dark Horrorfest films that release “8 films to die for” every year for the last few years. I generally find their films to be of better quality than the usual“B”horror movies that are available. This one …
Bad Santa
This movie is simply disgusting. I don’t know what they were thinking when filming it? Hoping to spoil Christmas for everyone, and especially for kids? The mention of Santa in the title would certainly draw families and kids to see this - and they shouldn’t. The Santa here is …
Fracture
Anthony Hopkins has played so many villains, I think I have lost count. Here he appears as one again, intelligent, scheming, cold-blooded - just the way you like him. The movie “Fracture” (released in 2007) drew me in from the start, and from the start I knew it was …

8 MM (1999)
I did not enjoy all the scenes I saw in this movie but for me this movie is a good one because it teaches the viewers that there are things that are totally disagreeable in the hiding. It also gives us the idea that things are not …
Vacancy Movie
Vacancy is a movie released in 2007 starring Luke Wilson and Kate Beckinsale. If you think that combination sounds a little odd, don’t worry because so did I! I actually saw this movie while it was playing in the theater and I liked it enough that I actually bought …
The film The Secret
I found this “The Secret” to be quite ridiculous, a tad boring, and totally unrealistic. This “movie” generated much hype a couple of years ago and, like most, I fell for it all and ran out to rent it. BIG mistake. It spends two agonizing hours …
Love You to the Stars and Back (2017 Filipino Romantic Comedy Film)
I am always wary in spending money watching local films. However, my sister dragged me to watch this movie called “Love You to the Stars and Back” (I know such an awfully long title that doesn’t match the movie at all - Philippine local films have plenty of that) yesterday …

The Fog movie
An underrated piece from John Carpenter, made between Halloween and Escape from New York. The story, that involves a fog attacking people in a small coast town in America, may be a little bit mundane, but the way Carpenter creates moods and scare his audience here is simply top …
The Movie Dinner for Schmucks
When I saw the previews for “Dinner For Shmucks” I was really excited. The previews had me laughing so hard so I thought that because the previews were funny then the movie must be funny. However, after paying to see this movie I have to say that …

I watched this movie about a year ago on lifetime movie network. Although it is not one of my favorite movies that they play it is definately a movie worth watching. It had a very good story to it. It kept me entertained while watching the whole movie. I …

Deadpool (2016 Superhero Movie)
One of the best superhero movies I remember seeing in a long time had to be the Marvel movie “Deadpool”. I remember there was this great anticipation of what the movie would be like, and then I read and heard a lot of good reviews about the movie while it …

Message in a Bottle is a story that every one will love because i do. It’s really strange how things happen specially when it comes to love. I really like the story because it was different from the other. A guy who throws a bottle with a love notes …
Gabriel
I’ve first known of the movie Gabriel after I saw my aunt watching it. I asked her what’s the movie she’s watching and what is it all about. Since she was not accustomed to telling tales, she answered me directly with, “The angel Gabriel of course.”
Gabriel is an Australian …
American Meth documentary
In the year 2007, I would have thought that a more in depth methamphetamine documentary could have been made. Kudos to the creators for casting Val Kilmer as the narrator. His voice has plenty of presence, and you forget that it’s even him speaking. However, this …
