Tombstone Movie
With an all star cast and a killer plot, you cannot miss with this movie. It has an abundance of all the right stuff in a classic western, for example, it has lots of shootouts, loads of shootouts. This movie is great…just great, nothing short of what you know …
Moonraker movie
In this Bond film (the series was starting to get very long by this time, but the creators kept doing them as they were all successful at the box office) the terrible Jaws makes his second appearance to stop Bond from completing his mission, however, the villain appears a …
Begotten movie
An experimental and surreal film from the same director who made Shadow of the vampire, the film about the chaotic way Nosferatu was created back in the 1920s. Begotten doesn’t have a definable structure or narrative. As matter of fact it doesn’t even have any dialogue. It’s all about …
Movie Man of the Year
I wasn’t sure what to think when they cast Robin Williams as a presidential candidate in the movie Man of the Year. But, after watching the film last night, I do think it is better than I expected it to be; though I’m not sure its his best film.
Williams …
Doctor Dolittle
Doctor Dolittle is a delightful musical that has stood up through the test of time as an entertaining film. Oddly, when released in 1967, it didn’t do well. Musicals were sadly on their way out, and Doctor Dolittle was one of the victims. However, it’s become …
Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Part 1
The great and quite long series of books&movies which has been around for more than a decade is about to come to an end.
Being a loyal Harry Potter fan, I read all the books in the series, watched the movies and even played the computer games..
Usually I wasn’t very …
Last Samurai Movie
The Last Samuria is truely a box office hit, no doubt about it. When it comes down to onscreen action, this film will leave you with goose-bumps, especially the scene where the ninjas attacked the village (guess you will have to watch it to find out exactly what happened). …
Movie: “Hostel II”
Although it takes a little while to get going, “Hostel II” was a horrifying and satisfying sequel to the first movie.
The plot is similar: three American college girls are lured to a small Slovakian village by a European woman. She’s beautiful and cultured, and seems trustworthy; but, of course, …

Synopsis: This documentary (which was produced by World Wrestling Entertainment) gives a behind-the scenes look at the now defunct World Championship Wrestling franchise and how it rose from it’s regional roots to a national syndication only to ultimately crash and burn at the very end.
What I liked about this …
Children of Men
To start off with, any movie that has Michael Caine saying, �Pull my finger� at gunpoint can’t be all bad. And Children of Men is not bad, but it sure is depressing. The story of a future Earth, where the last baby born was eighteen years ago, and now …
Futureworld (1976) movie
Starring: Peter Fonda, Blythe Danner, Arthur Hill, Yul Brynner, and Jim Antonio.
Directed by: Richard T. Heffron.
I had no idea that there was a sequel to “Westworld”, possibly because it wasn’t all that it was cooked up to be, perhaps? Oh wait a minute, actually, it really isn’t what it’s …

Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban (1999)
As usual this movie starts off with Harry back at the home of his foster parents and they are still doing their best to make his life as impossible and unhappy as they possibly can. But for every time that they try to do him ill, it always backfired …
Titanic
This must have been a good movie because it evoked so many emotions from me. The setting and the characterizations were incredible. Leonardo is as always beautiful in it. The thing I hated was when she was on the door or whatever at the end and she says ‘I’ll …
Gidget (TV Series)
After three successful movies on the big screen, Hollywood brought the girl midget (hence, gidget) surfer to the small screen. It was the big break for Sally Field, who took on the Gidget role. It brought her recognition. It still bugs me that she sneers at …
Clue (movie)
I always heard of the game “Clue”, but never actually got a chance to play it. However, I did get a chance to watch the 1985 movie a couple years ago when I was much younger and it was airing on a cable television channel. I feel in love …
Fear and loathing in las vegas
Fear and loathing in las vegas is one of the best movies i’ve ever seen
it is definitely on of my favorites
johnny depp is the main character of this movie.
The movie is about a journolist named raoul Duke, and his attorney Dr. Gonzo on a “vacation” to las vegas… raoul …
An Erotic Werewolf in London Movie DVD
I didn’t like this movie since I believed it was more of a female exploitation movie, which I wasn’t interested in. This was because it contained a lot of female nudity scenes as well as lesbian scenes which made it more resemble soft core pornography than a horror movie. …
Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince
I had been waiting on the edge of my seat for Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince to come out. I watched all of the movies prior to this one on DVD three or four times in the last month, getting reaquainted with the story and the …
Death Race (2008)
A brand new action film with an in your face plot line and non stop gore and violence throughout this film! Jason Statham plays a hard working man who is framed for the murder of his wife! He is sent to a prison run by a murderous warden played …
Batman Returns
I got a chance to re-watch the movie Batman Returns last night and have to say, I can now understand why that installment of Batman movies went downhill in a hurry.
The first Batman, starring Michael Keaton, is still one of my favorite movies. This sequel to that movie wasn’t …
The Moonstone by Wilkie Collins
“The Moonstone” by Wilkie Collins is a delightful and well-written 19th century mystery novel. When she turns 18, Lady Rachel Verinder received a very special and precious gift: a large yellow diamond called Moonstone. Her uncle, now deceased, had stolen it from a temple in India where he was …

The movie opens as the first …
Finding Neverland - (starring Johnny Depp)
Finding Neverland is one of the best movies that I watched and it featured both extremely talented and amazing actress and actor. They are none other than Johnny Depp and Kate Winslet.
Johnny’s character is so strikingly handsome and one of the best moments that I love would …
Blockbuster Online Rentals
Recently, I tried out Blockbuster’s Online Rentals, and it was an interesting experience.
The sign up process was simple enough, and I found the website to be fairly easy to use. I was on the 3-movies at a time program, and I began by making a very long list …
Triloquist (Movie)
Triloquist is one of the strangest and worst movies I’ve seen in a long time. The movie was released by Dimension Extreme and that combined with the fact that it was made by the makers of Leprechaun was enough to make me plop down the $4 for the rental …
How to Lose Friends and Alienate People
I loved The Devil Wears Prada film largely because Meryl Streep was such a bitch. The good news is How To Lose Friends And Alienate People is written in the same vein only the main character is not Anne Hathaway but a smart talking clumsy writer (Sydney Young) played …
Scenes of a Sexual Nature
I watched this film, very oddly named, Scenes of a Sexual Nature, on DVD last night. I have had high hopes for this film since first hearing about it a couple of years ago, as it features a strong British cast including Catherine Tate, Ewen McGregor and Hugh Bonneville …
3 Days to Kill (movie)
I was a little surprised that I didn’t hear anything about the movie “3 Days to Kill” until after it was released on Blu-ray some time later. I decided to take the movie home and watch it since it looked like it might have a fairly good plot, and …
Movie: “Witchboard” (1986)
We’ve all wondered about the Ouija board: is it just a game, or can spirits really come through it? Some people just have to learn the hard way.
Jim (Todd Allen) and Linda (Tawny Kitaen) hold a party; but Jim is angry and jealous when Linda invites her ex-boyfriend Brandon …

In today’s society of “I”, “me” and “myself”, 7 Pounds is a story of selflessness. The film stars Hollywood star Will Smith as he went on to give “himself” to 7 deserving individuals as penance for the seven lives he destroyed in a freak accident.
Aside from the Pursuit …

Freaky Friday is a very entertaining and enjoyable movie. The movie starring Jamie Lee Curtis and Lindsay Lohan in the main roles is the story of a mother and daughter who can not understand each other and are not a perfect mother and perfect daughter respectively. They don’t agree …
American Reunion (2012 movie)
After seven films of the American Pie series, an average fan would say there is nothing much more to be offered.
Well, I am not a fan, but whatever dissapointments there were with the previous seven if there were some at all, I could …
Plan 9 From Outer Space
This movie is considered one of the worst of all time. Maybe THE worst of all time. It’s directed by the worst director of all time, Ed Wood. So many people hated this movie when it came out in the 1950s. All I have to say is this: I …
Song of the Gringo movie
Song of the Gringo from 1936 is actually Tex Ritter’s first movie role. He does a decent job as he enters the rank of the singing cowboy, which ruled the era in many ways. Being his first picture, he doesn’t have a sidekick and poor White Flash, …
Street Law, movie (1974)
Enzo Castellari has a knack for making Italian action films. Fabio Testi seemed to be his go-to star. Yet, one film in particular, Castellari utilized the talents of the original Django. The end result was one of the better poliziotteschi films put out by Castellari. …
“Monty Python and the Meaning of Life” (1983 Film)
While this group of British comics are well known for their unique sense of humor, having been portrayed in “Monty Pythons Flying Circus” and in “Monty Python and the Holy Grail”, their second movie, “Monty Python and the Meaning of Life” made in 1983 is filled with much more …

The In-Laws (2003)
This movie is yet another disgrace of a movie, even though it stars some very decent actors, the movie just did not live up to the hype that was created around it and once again, we have a hit and miss coming out of the studios of the fames …
Highlander Endgame
I actually really liked this movie. The film seeks to bring together the original movie (with Christoper Lambert) and the Highlander series. They (wisely, I might add) pretty much completely ignore Highlander 2 and 3. They pick up from the end of the first movie and, …
The Unbelievable Truth movie
This is one of my favorite Hal Hartley films. Brave, daring narrative and visual style, an engaging story focused on human dignity and about the coolest soundtrack ever makes this one of Hartley’s prime works, and also places him in the rare group of interesting american filmmakers the last …
Tristan & Isolde (2006)
Tristan is the Cornish Knight of a region of England whose village has come under attack by the Irish, he leaches a counter attack and manages to kill the leader of the attacking force, but he too is seriously wounded in the fracas, and he presumably dies when it …
WANTED movie
Wanted is an action film that is based on a comic book miniseries by Mark Millar. The film is directed by Timur Bekmambetov and features two of my favorite stars Morgan Freeman and Angelina Jolie.
Spoiler ahead, beware.
It is an action packed film about a guy(Wesley Allan Gibson) who …
American Pie: Book of Love Movie
I like American Pie movies, but so far this is the most low-budget and low-cost American Pie movie I have ever seen. All of the characters are not famous and there isn’t one original character that was shown here unlike the first American Pie movie, but I still watched …
Movie Just Friends
I must admit I don’t like watching Ryan Reynolds movies. For some reason, he is obsessed with the words ‘fuck’ and ’sex’, however he managed to convince me in this comedy movie with the name “Just Friends”. I like this movie because Reynolds finally managed to involve himself in …
Chronicle (Movie )
First off, I’m going to say although I don’t absolutely love the found footage genre, I absolutely without a doubt loved Chronicle. Of course I had my problems with it but at the end of the day it was a really good movie. My favorite thing about this film …
Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs (2009 Movie)
First off, I did not go to see this in theaters. I waited until it was available through Netflix streaming before I actually saw it. That being said, this movie was absolutely amazing even without Imax, surround sound, and in 3D. It’s based off a children’s book, and according …
The Day After Tomorrow
After watching The Day After Tomorrow, I have come to believe in goodness again. This movie has a great storyline, telling us how man is corrupt and only long for their self-interest and that is why the earth must die. I am not going to ruin the movie for …
Evan Almighty movie
This movie, a sequel in premise only to the earlier Bruce Almighty, is a fun PG rated film to enjoy with the whole family. Morgan Freeman once again plays God, with of course the ability to appear and reappear at will to whomever he desires. Steve Carell reprises his …
Hulk Movie (with Edward Norton)
After the bomb that was the last Hulk movie, the new one gave me a nice sigh of relief. I was skeptical about it at first, but I’ve never seen a film with Edward Norton that I did not like, so I decided to check it out.
Unlike its predecessor, …
