“The Cider House Rules” is a 1999 Miramax movie, a production company that I find traditionally does excellent movies. At 116 minutes the English language movie is just about the perfect length. I never felt like it was padded to occupy more screen time nor did I feel cheated …

A spectacular film starring Russell Crowe as Maximus the General and a slave gladiator. The action in this film is not great but it is OK, not too gruesome, not too bloody. The plot is on point and it delivers the goods. Joaquin Phoenix plays a great bad guy …

The classic story by Jules Verne about a an english adventurer who takes a bet of him travelling around all the world in as little as 80 days (which was very, very little once). This version of the story has been hailed as the best one, but I can’t …

There’s nothing better than a hot cup of cocoa and a movie. Inasmuch as the acting is flat, the characters vapid and bordering on caricature, the music a work of a bygone age of pop, and a little too wholesome for high school, I had an amazing time watching …

This movie DVD, Police Woman - The Complete First Season is really lame. There is truly nothing at all that I could comment on which would give it even the tiniest bit of positiveness. It is inspired from the TV series which have up to 23 episodes …

There is a brilliant spot in Dead Like Me: Send in the Clown. It’s actually a parody of the TV drama, Hill Street Blues. I recognized what was happening almost immediately. It surrounded Roxy (Jasmine Guy), who is a meter maid on the show. She …

An American Haunting is a good movie, supposedly to be based on a true story about John Bell and his family. I was watching it with some friends and my boyfriend, and we were all ready to get spooked or something. Instead, the movie turned out pretty …

Why are computer hackers so powerful and feared? Well this movie answers this question in an action packed and well written story. The all star cast does an excellent job at turning a …

I have always been a fan of the television show Mr. Bean. I enjoyed the first Mr.Bean movie and I must say Mr. Bean’s Holiday is far better and funnier than the first one! Mr. Bean is played by the British actor, Rowan Atkinson. His adventure began when Mr. …

Now this is one movie with the kind of difference that I really appreciate and love and it was no surprise really for me to discover that ‘Team America’ was developed by the same guys who brought us the controversially entertaining ‘South Park’ series.
It’s quite some food for thought …
