Murder by Numbers Movie
Murder by Numbers starring Sandra Bullock was worth watching once, but I just could not bare sitting through the movie a second time. The movie takes a fascinating look at a homicide detective struggling with her own demons as she attempts to solve a seemingly perfect murder plot. The …
Our mothers murder
This is one of my favorite movies that I have seen on lifetime. It was a very good story and a true story also. I think that they did a wonderful job making this movie. All of the actors were good in it and did an amazing job playing …
The Roommate (2011 Movie)
I knew The Roommate wasn’t going to be a spectacular film or even an original horror from the trailer, but the trailers made it look like a fun horror movie to go see with friends. Although the dialogue is terrible and the movie is extremely predictable if you’ve ever …
Shape of the Moon (2004)
Shape of the Moon is a documentary released in 2004. It has no narration, but is basically a cameraman who follows around an Indonesian family. It received rave reviews from Roger Ebert and other critics. It is shot entirely in Indonesia, and the language is Indonesian with subtitles. Despite …
Blank Check movie
I completely forgot about this movie until some time recently when I was having a discussion with a few of my friends about children’s movies from the nineteen nineties. The name of the movie Blank Check came up and I decided to write about it. It was not my …

Starring: Shia LaBeouf, Michelle Monaghan, Billy Bob Thorton, Rosario Dawson, and Michael Chiklis.

There was a moment in Fast Times at Ridgemont High (1982) where Mr. Hand stated that everybody is on dope. I would like to agree and say that his statement rings true, both for …
The Grudge 2
Starring: Amber Tamblyn (Aubrey), Jennifer Beals (Trish), Sarah Michelle Gellar (Karen), Arielle Kebbel (Allison), Matthew Knight (Jake), Edison Chen (Eason),
Okay, the cover on the DVD caught my eye the pasty white faced spook with the black eyes. I had expected this to be a good …
Batman Begins (movie 2005)
The best Batman movie to-date, no contest. It shows a more serious and realistic take on the death of Bruce Wayne’s parents and the reason he decided to become the Dark Knight. It takes us alongside him as he struggles to find himself and the adventures he has while …
Sally Field
Sally Field is an amazing American actress. She began her career in The Flying Nun, an old television series about a young nun who could fly (this was due to her habit, not wings!). Sally Field has also starred in such wonderful films as Norma Rae, Sybil, Places In …
Traffickers, Movie
Korean thrillers rarely pull their punches, which can often make them deeply affecting - especially when they centre around some really dark subjects. Unlike popular Chinese and Japanese cinema exports there is typically much more favour for realism in Korean films, that only makes them more shocking.
Traffickers is concerned …
Four Christmases movie
I was only able to watch Four Christmases on HBO and I have enjoyed watching it so much that it is now one of my favorite Christmas movies.
The movie stars Reese Witherspoon and Vince Vaughn as Kate and Brad, a couple who seemed to have everything going for them. …
The Return movie
I actually did not hear of the movie “The Return” until recently and when I heard that it was actually a thriller that had originated out of Russia, my curiosity was piqued even further. When I watched it I also could not help but think that it was actually …
Death Note anime
I am not a big fan of anime and Death Note was one of the first that I have watched. Though I have heard some of my die-hard anime fanatic friends going gaga over this, I still am not that keen on watching it. But I was glad I …
Road Trip
When the movie Road Trip first came out, I will confess I wasn’t overly impressed by it. For the most part, it seemed to be pretty much every other college movie I’ve ever seen.
Then, after watching it for about the third time, I think I might have finally realized …
A Tattered Web movie
From 1971, A Tattered Web is a film about accidental murder and a cover up. I think I may have watched this back when it first aired, but I’m not certain. The movie starred Lloyd Bridges as Sgt. Ed Stagg. I’ve never really been a fan …
The Wolf Man Movie
I watched this Movie two days ago, I heard from a friend that this Movie was good and I came to see it on a big screen. I am amazed since those actress and actors who portrayed the story was those Vatican in a big Movie.
The first scene was …
K-19: The Widowmaker movie
K-19: The Widowmaker was released in 2002, and I wasn’t sure if I’d like it or not. Honestly, I’m still not totally sure. It took me three or four views to really get into and grasp the entire scope of the story. That surprised me because …
Getting Even with Dad
Getting Even with Dad is a very funny movie I remember watching when I was younger. I think this film was really funny. It’s about a kid who has a dad who is not a very good person. His dad is a criminal who is trying to steal some very …
Jurassic Park I: The Movie
In my opinion the movie Jurassic Park based on the novel from Michael Crichton is one of the great set of movies based upon his books. The animation and idea behind the movie is cutting edge for the time it was created in 1993. The plot for the movie …

Knocked Up film
Judd Apatow brings us his sophomore directorial effort Knocked Up, another comedy in the same spirit as his first film, The 40 Year Old Virgin, which starred Steve Carrell of NBC’s The Office.

Rose Red, movie directed by Stephen King
I have always been a fan of supernatural movies so when I came across Rose Red by Stephen King I had high hopes. The movie (made from the miniseries) was not as great as I expected but still became one of my favorites.
The plot tells of a teacher …
The Avengers movie
In a somehow original yet cliche kind of way, The Avengers is one of the best movies of the year and easily the most entertaining. However this action thriller does not come out perfectly, a lot of small flaws make this only a good action movie and not a …
Australia movie
The main actress of the movie “Australia”, Nicole Kidman described it as “the Australian version of Gone with the Wind”. I like to think that “Australia” is a cross version between two modern movies - “Titanic” and “Peal Harbour” - because the movie concept seems to thread on the …
Movie Bruno
This movie was hilarious, definitely a must see! Sacha Baron Cohen from Borat is back as Bruno for yet another epic comedy! Many people are completely against it, but what can you expect with a movie about a homosexual fashion oriented male? Many oppose it just on the basis …
The Last Laugh movie
F.W. Murnau was one of the most inventive filmmakers of the late silent era, completing a number of most original pieces of film history. Sadly his career was way to short as he died at a young age, but he did have time to put his mark on cinema …
Flight Plan movie
Flight Plan is kind of movie about hijicking a plane by a bad guy. But, I think we must think for a moment until the middle of this movie guessing who really a bad person here, because I think its a lot of trick and I’m also surprised when …
Juno film
“Juno” is a 2007 film directed by Jason Reitman, and starring Ellen Page, Michael Cera, Jennifer Garner, and Jason Bateman. This is a really good movie about a mouthy but obviously smart teenager who becomes pregnant and has to navigate through all the possible courses of action she …
Adventures in Babysitting
Adventures in Babysitting was a fun little movie directed by Chris Columbus that came out in the eighties. Elizabeth Shue plays the perfect combination of girl-next-door and blonde bombshell who every guy wants to call his girlfriend. Starring in the title role, Shue hams it up nicely as …
Happy feet movie
I got this movie free as a gift. I was a bit weary about letting my children watch this movie because of the talking penguins. I am very happy though that I caved in and let them watch it.It is a very inspirational movie that the whole family can …
Educating Rita Movie
This is one of the movies I can watch over and over again, and often do. Michael Caine plays a disillusioned literature professor who is assigned to teach Rita (Julie Walters), a Liverpool hairdresser. At the age of twenty six, Rita has decided to take care of her education …
Columbo: Murder, Smoke and Shadows movie
I’ve always remembered Columbo: Murder, Smoke and Shadows, not because of the actors but because of the story and that it makes use of Universal Studios. In fact, the opening has the soon-to-be murder victim on the tram, riding around seeing the attractions, like Jaws and the burning …
The Avengers Movie
Captain America . Thor. Iron Man . Hulk. These are characters that I grew up with and whose films I had fun with and I have always looked forward to. What happens when all these characters fall into one and the same mixture? A true epic! Marvel’s production “The …
Speak movie
I am reviewing the movie entitled SPEAK, which was based off of the award winning novel by Laurie Anderson. This is a movie you cannot miss. Kristen Stewart plays the role of Melinda, who has been deemed a social outcast after she called the police at a school …

The original and still the best, this movie tells the story of a group of astronauts who, while deep in the hibernation state, crash landed on a strange planet. After waking up to find one of the crew members dead, they disembark their space craft and continued to survey …
The Blob movie
My wife and I ended up blowing off our housework yesterday and watched movies all day. One of the films we saw was the 1958 classic “The Blob.”
Even though I’ve seen the sequels and remakes of the movie, I still feel this original is the best. Steve McQueen is …
Calendar Girls
This story is awesome and it has a wonderful cast, including one of the lead, Helen Mirren. Someway or another, I think this movie was made close to the truth or rather, something inspirational of the real story and the title suits really.
The story is funny and I love …

Click Adam Sandler
Adam Sandler was ridiculously funny as always. I loved him in this film so much. He lived out some of our greatest fantasies. At least once, we have all wished that at a click of a button we could change something. Well, Adam Sandler actually got the chance to …
Dracula: Dead And Loving It
This is Mel Brooks’s version of Count Dracula story, released in 1995. All I can say is funny, funny, FUNNY! Just thinking of it makes me smile. Leslie Nielsen as the imposing but a little clumsy Dracula who keeps messing things up, Peter MacNicol as an unsuspecting London solicitor …
Au Revoir Les Enfants (drama movie)
To some extent, the movie is said to be based on director Louis Malle’s remorseful recollection of events in 1944 during the time when the Nazis occupied France. ‘Au Revoir Les Enfants’ is a subtle and yet powerful film that reveals to us the potentials that can befall when …
Leaving Las Vegas movie
Leaving Las Vegas is probably the most tragic movie I have ever seen, but at the same time it is strangely uplifting on another level. It is the story of two broken souls that come across each other at their lowest point and see the similarity, see something in …
Love Story movie
“Love means never having to say you’re sorry.”
That’s one of the most famous movie quotes ever, and it’s from this movie that captured the country’s attention upon its release. Starring Ryan O’Neal and Ali McGraw, Love Story is a powerfully emotional drama about two lovers from different backgrounds …
Role Models (UR, 2008) movie
I was dying to see this movie when it hit theaters. But alas, I ended up catching it on DVD. And I have to say that I’m glad I waited. While the movie was funny, I found the little boy’s antics a bit over …
Dodgeball: A True Underdog Story
This movie could be looked at in one of two ways: a take on David and Goliath, or the traditional bully theme. Either way, it is a pleasant comedy with several delightful characters and oddities. It involves a hostile takeover attempt by Goliath Globo Gym owner White Goodman (Ben …
Pollock movie
Pollock is another movie about a real artist, Jackson Pollock. Pollock is the real deal and evidently Jackson Pollock was no peach. I was rather horrified by this movie, and it was very haunting. Jackson Pollock was an important American artist whose style was like no other. In Pollock, …
