The actress, Jodie Foster is simply fantastic in whatever role she interprets and it seems to get better with every movie. This also applies to “The Brave One”. In this movie, Foster manages to work on the viewers’ emotion and during the movie you don’t know whether to love …
Saving Private Ryan movie
Steven Spielberg’s oscarwinning depiction of the d-day during World War II when the american army invaded Normandy in France to fight the germans.

Next Stop, Greenwich Village movie
I absolutely adore movies that take place in the 50’s and 60’s. This movie was made in 1976, but takes place in 1953, so close enough. For some reason, those two decades fascinate me. And the music is so fantastic, I can’t get enough of it! Anyways, onto what …

The Prestige movie
“The Prestige” starring Christian Bale, Hugh Jackman, and Michael Caine is one of the best movies that I’ve seen in a while. The storyline follows the careers of rival magicians while their mentor is always in the background playing some small part. The thing that I loved the most …

Cronenberg’s cult rated film features James Woods as a man being consumed by media, psychologically and physically, in perhaps the most bizarre way ever seen. It begins as what seems like a very serious and slowly paced film, but ends up as a plain horror film with loads of …

Star Wars: Return of the Jedi (1997 Film)
Out of all of the Star Wars movies that came out in the 90’s, episode VI “Return of the Jedi” is my favorite. I had thought that the first two films made in the 90’s were incredible and that nothing could top them, but “Return of the Jedi” was …

Forest of the Gods Movie
Hi everyone reading this review. It`s a review about the movie Forest Of The Gods. I know you maybe not even heard about this. And its probably because it`s Lithuanian movie. But i think it`s really worth to mention and to check it out if you havent seen it. …
Envy (movie)
“Envy” was one of those movies that I discovered bombed at the box office when it was released, but when I watched it, I couldn’t understand why. I’ve seen infinitely worse comedies and movies with much better ratings even though I thought that this one had a better plot …
You Only Live Twice movie
A film about the british secret service agent yet again. This time the audience are lead to believe the hero dies in the first scene of the film, but evidently James Bond can not be killed. Sean Connery is clearly getting tired of the role by this time and …

Gladiator: Anatomy of a Prison Murder (R, 2002)
This movie was a bit more brutal than I imagined it would be. I am a huge fan of horror movies, the gorier the better. And I even like films that depict some of the rather disturbing crimes occurring in recent years. However, this …

Beast Wars: Transformers - The Complete Third Season Set
The complete third season of Beast Wars: Transformers on DVD is a letdown. It’s not the fault of the picture or sound quality on the DVD set, although the amount of “extras” is very disappointing, but it’s the episodes that are the real problem. Unlike season two, the scripts …
Species III (2004)
Third in the franchise of the species series, this one did not live up to the hype and instead of crashing and burning in the theatres trying to rake in the box office bucks, it went directly to DVD, and that is what you call ’smart’. Now, if you …
Spectre (2015 James Bond Film)
A lot of people I knew were very excited to see the movie Spectre as soon as it was released. While my excitement didn’t necessarily reach their level, I was certainly curious to see what it would be about since my interest in James Bond movies had been rekindled over …
He’s Just Not That Into You (2009)
I don’t go to a lot of movies in the theatre, but I thought this one might be fun. It’s based on the book of the same name, and you can see this in the small vignettes in between scenes of the movie - occasionally you leave the action …
Pulp Fiction movie
When Pulp Fiction was released, I had not seen a good movie like this in a while. Pulp Fiction held my attention from the moment the movie started and I waited with my breath held to see what would happen next until the end of the movie. John Travolta …
The Rugrats Movie
I’ve said this once before, but any movie that will keep my 3-year-old daughter occupied for 90 minutes is one that will always receive high praise from me.
The Rugrats movie is one of those films.
I bought her the movie about a week ago as a bribe. She had spent …
FLCL
The anime series “FLCL,” short for “Fooly Cooly” or “Furi Kuri,” is an artistic amazement. The storyline is a little unclear, being a
three-way battle between main characters, but deliciously abstract and humorous. The plot’s hyperactive pace, and features that catagorize the series as anything from comedy, drama, romance, sci-fi …
Sucker Punch (2011) Movie
It is odd that I read the synopsis of a movie, get interested in it and then watch it, only to be disappointed in the end. The synopsis for the movie on Netflix calls it a “mind warping action thriller”. Then on top of that very attractive statement it …
A Storm in Summer,2000 movie
This movie is a real gem. Peter Falk plays Abel Shaddick, an angry old man who seems to hate everyone and everything. However, Falk manages to make his character interesting rather than totally unlikable: we want to know the reason of his anger, and as we suspect that the …
Beck Mongolian Chop Squad
“Beck Mongolian Chop Squad” is a very unique and intruiging anime series. It portrays the story of a group of Japanese teenagers pursuing their dreams of becoming rock band musicians, as well as the hard ships and drama of adolesence. While the story is extremely unique, and breaks the …
Patch Adams (movie)
I just love the movie, Patch Adams. This is the greatest movie! Robin Williams is Patch Adams, the doctor who is destined for greatness even though he doesn’t realize all the wonderful things he is going to do. What Patch Adams knows is that he methods are unconventional and …
National Treasure movies
Oh, how I love National Treasure!! These movies actually got me into studying history again - and history is fascinating! Especially at the beginnings of when the United States was formed. How exciting!! Of course I am a wierdo who will sit and read Civil War facts and Gold …
IMDB.com
IMDB.com (stands for Internet Movie Database) is, in my opinion, one of the best movie-related sites. You can find information about virtually any movie on it, even those that are no longer available. You can search the database for a specific movie title or a specific actor. Each actor …
What’s Eating Gilbert Grape 1993 movie
I did not like this movie; I found it very depressing. I heard a lot about it, and yes, Leonardo DiCaprio does an excellent portrayal of a retarded teenager, Arnie; you feel sorry for him, but even more so for those who must live with him and take care …
Mighty Joe Young (1998)
King Kong played out on a smaller stage; this movie has the very same appeal like that. Joe is the gorilla in question; he has seen many things during the course of his life and has come to terms with them. Earlier in his life, his mother was killed …
Movie : Haeckel’s Tale
Haeckel’s Tale is yet another one hour short film from the Showtime Series Masters of Horror. Directed by John McNaughton I would say its definitely the weakest entry from the first season of the show and in the bottom five of both seasons of the show. John …
