When the Prince & Me came out on DVD, I avoided it. But, when it showed up on cable, my wife forced me to watch it. What a cheesy film.

First off: “The Hobbit - an unexpected journey” looks absolutely amazing on a big screen, especially when viewed through 3D glasses. Not only do the scenic landscapes cover you in goosebumps, the amount of details is also awe-inspiring. Every single wart on every single, butt ugly ork, every hair …

Ok … this is another cute mouse movie by Disney. It’s quite alright … but I don’t think it was geared towards a wide enough audience. I thought it was so cute; the mouse cooking for the guy who wanted to be chef; and the transformation the chef made …

One of the movies which I can remember was released in the nineteen nineties was the movie “Angels in the Outfield”. It was one of the movies I loved as a child since it was a children’s movie with a very interesting plot. It was not one of those …

Greencine is another company that offers dvd rentals by mail just like blockbuster and netflix. They had a free trial a while back but I don’t know if they still do. The main reason I didn’t care for them is because they didn’t have a lot of movie titles …

As Ward Kimball, on of Disney’s long-time animators and one of the Nine Old Men said about Dumbo, it ‘had great simplicity and cartoon heart.’ I think it is these two elements which talk to me whenever I see this movie. Before hearing Kimball’s comment, I never thought of …

I really didn’t think I’d be watching this movie more than a decade after it was released. And I’m kind of sorry that I did. The girl playing Chantel was attractive and authentic enough. And even the storyline was pretty authentic. I didn’t …

When it comes to comedy or drama/comedy, I am fairly cautious, as although the genre itself appeals to me, I tend to find a lot of so-called funny movies merely annoying or distasteful. The same can be said for romantic comedies, of which barely a few have ever managed …

This movie, more than any movie before or since, did more to affect my life. It helped to define a career path, and it awoke in me a level of creativity I had never known. I was, needless to say, hooked.
The most intriguing aspect of Star Wars, was that, …

The story begins on a cruise ship and that is where we meet …

I’ve been into quite a lot of action films especially lately so it’s easy to see how a movie like this would have escaped my attention at first. I’m not even going to call myself a gigantic Marilyn Monroe fan but the little I’ve heard of her and just …

I went to theatre to watch a comedy movie and ended up choosing The movie “CLICK.”Though this movie is a comedy ,the second half becomes like a drama. Adam Sandler’s acting seems to be funny.It looks more like a real life rather tthan a movie.He is able …

Harold and Kumar Escape from Guantanamo Bay is the sequel to there first adventure when they went on the eternal search for white castle. This is just another one of your classic stoner comedies. Its just purely dumb but always entertaining.
In this adventure they are trying to make …

I didn’t quite know what to expect with this one. Cate Blanchett is one of my favorite actresses, capable of assuming all sorts of roles. Her role as a pedophile (essentially), teacher having an affair with one of her students was rather shocking. But …

I’ll just start with the part I didn’t like. I didn’t like the speech at the end by the President as played by Jeff Bridges. I had liked his character up until then but something about the way it was written seemed obvious to me somehow. Maybe in this …

I am a big fan of musicals and when I saw the musical Rent has been made into a movie I was so pleased to go and see it. Rent is story about a bunch of “bohemians” living in the city and the movie is about their friendships, …

A lot went into the making of this film and a lot came out of it. If possible, this trilogy should be watched as if it were one complete film. The closest I came was watching each film nightly, over three nights. By doing so, I gained a perspective …
