Old School movie
Old School. What a great phrase. Will Farrell, Vince Vaughn, and Luke Wilson, better known as the Frat Pack, have made yet another hilarious film. After Wilson’s character finds out that he is being evicted from his new house, the boys decide to start a fraternity in order to …
New Moon
I had hoped New Moon would be better than the Twilight movie> I had read the books and unlike every teenage girl in teh world I thought they were rubbish.
So when I went to New Moon I had the previous history with teh books and the Twilight movie …
Brotherhood of the Wolf-(Le Pacte Des Loups)- (2001)
Usually I don’t enjoy watching foreign films with characters I am unfamiliar with. However, I decided to give this one a try. The plot seemed very interesting. There is a beast terrorizing the countryside and killing innocent villagers. Two unlikely heroes show up to investigate and solve the mystery …
War of the Worlds
I will be talking about the 2005 remake of War of the Worlds starring Tom Cruise. Now the movie is critically acclaimed to be a somewhat terrible movie. Besides one flaw at the very end of the movie, I thought the movie overall was actually brilliant. …
A Christmas Story
When I first saw A Christmas Story a few years ago, I thought it was a great film. Now, after every television station has managed to show it at least a dozen times, I’m a bit burned out on it.
Overall, this is a unique holiday film in the sense …
Cowboy Bebop episode 2
In Cowboy Bebop, episode 2, cool dog’s strut is a marvelous excuse of a waste of time. Keeping up with Cowboy Bebop’s unparalleled style, the entire episode seems to be an excuse to write in Rin. Who is our new lovable bioengineered welsh carrier, that seems to hog …
“Playing House” (2006 Lifetime Movie Network Film)
This Lifetime Movie Network film which came out in 2006 starring Colin Ferguson and Joanne Kelly called “Playing House”, was sweet, but not exactly entertaining. The film was very predictable and common, something that I felt was seen in many movies before it but the stories were told in …
Bonnie and Clyde 1967 movie
One scene in the movie of Bonnie and Clyde shows a scared Bonnie running away from Clyde. She runs through a field and Clyde runs after her. They run in shadow. Naturally since it is the 60s, the technology is not in place that would cause …
Sharknado: The 4th Awakens, movie
On the off chance that you weren’t aware, these movies are kind of silly. The film makers know that the premise is ridiculous and just go all out with it. More often than not, it makes for an entertaining time.
The second one was a bit of a dud, but …
The Messengers (2007)
The Messengers, directed by Oxide Pang Chun and Danny Pang is rated PG-13 by the Motion Picture Association of America and stars Kristen Stewart as Jess, Dylan McDermott as Roy, Penelope Ann Miller as Denise and John Corbett as Burwell.
A family of three relocates from their town lives to …
The Hills Have Eyes
This is one of the scariest remake movies I’ve ever seen. The original was filmed in 1977. The author of this Horrible tale is Wes Craven. The theme is nothing supernatural but mainly of unlikely people and it’s rather gross. When I look at it, …
Batteries Not Included
If you guys were disappointed with the recent Disney Movie Wall-E, and still want a good movie with robot type creatures, Batteries Not Included is for you ! It’s not an animated flick, but it’s so good. It’s a movie from 1987, where they had to rely on acting …
Movie The Kingdom
It is a true pity that the movies “The Kingdom” and “Rendition” were released in the same year. I feel that these are both true exceptional movies with a great message to send across to humanity; however they will end up being compared with each other.
These movies tackle …
The Chronicles of Narnia
The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe, directed by Andrew Adamson is rated PG by the Motion Picture Association of America for battle sequences and frightening moments. The original release date was December 9, 2005 for United States audience. This movie falls in the genre …
Harry potter
Harry potter is the movie, which my 3 years old son has liked a lot. I had been to the theatre with my little son and my husband 2 weeks back. The action in the movie is very good and the comedy is excellent. The costume …
Erin Brokovich
Erin Brokovich is the story of a single mom with 3 kids struggling to make ends meet. The beginning of the movie shows her effort to find a job but in the process she finds that her mediocre skills and lack of education are not what people are …
Movie Legend
I am reviewing the movie called Legend. It stars Tom Cruise(Jack), Mia Sara(Lilly), and Tim Curry as the Lord of Darkness.
The story is about good and evil competing against each other: a classic. A movie about a young girl’s innocence.
I think of this as a childrens’ movie but …
Disney’s Tarzan (1999)
Another telling of the story of the legendary ape man Tarzan as seen through the eyes of Disney artists. A family shipwrecked on a deserted island comes to terms with the reality that they may be on the island for a very long time, they build a home and …
Confessions of a Shopaholic movie
I went to watch the movie Confessions of a Shopaholic, since my friends and I decided to go out. And I recommended this movie since I was impressed by the trailer I had seen.
The movie is basically an adaptation of the Shopaholic Series by Sophie Kinsella. It revolves around …
Side Effects (movie)
Side Effects was one of those movies that I didn’t watch because of how if was apparently received by quite a number of people. It didn’t even get a great rating on it’s IMDB page and so I just left it or ignored it till I eventually forgot about it. …
Pirates of the Caribbean 3
Pirates of the Caribbean: At World’s End is what we have all been waiting for; the second of two films in a vastly growing franchise that we have all grown to love Or not.
The original film was fantastic. It’s sequel, Dead Man�s Chest had potential but seemed, quite …
Lost in Space (1998)
Lost in Space, directed by Stephen Hopkins is rated PG-13 by the Motion Picture Association of America for some intense science fiction action. The original release date was April 3, 1998 for United States audience. This movie falls in the genre of Action/Adventure/Science Fiction/Thriller and stars William hurt as …
A Mighty Heart
This movie, A Mighty Heart is played out by Angie, or known as Angelina Jolie. I have always respected her in the sense that she’s not afraid to play out roles that are scary or pretty threatening.
Like in A Mighty Heart, she plays the wife to a reporter, acted …
Descent (NC-17, 2007) movie
Man oh man, was I disappointed with this movie. There aren’t too many films starring Rosario Dawson that I absolutely hate. But this one—an indie—about her “brutal” rape was just strange. The premise is that she’s an introverted college student who is lured into …
13 Ghosts (movie)
13 Ghosts is a movie about 13 Ghosts in a special house, trapped away until…yeah, that’s the clencher…until someone and something comes along to provoke a very special event. 13 Ghosts was really hard for me to watch because it moved so quickly and the ghostly visions were here …
Movie Superbad
I watched this movie about two nights ago. It was a lot better than I though it was going to be. There were quite a few funny parts, and it was just fun to watch. Some of the parts weren’t really funny but you enjoyed watching it and it …
I Love You, Man
I love You, Man is the story of a “bromance.” It features Paul Rudd as Peter, a man on the verge of getting married, but who has no real close male friends to be his best man, and Jason Segel as Sydney Fife, an investor, who happens to be …
Step Up 2 Movie
I didn’t like this movie as much as I liked the first one. This is the sequel to Step Up and I think one of the main reasons I liked that movie was because of Channing Tatum. In this sequel, Channing Tatum is only in the movie for like …
Iron Man
Today I went to see Iron Man. What an excellent film.
This is the first of all the Marvel films that I feel like really had it all. A good plot, story line, special effects, cast of characters and really solid acting.
It’s rare to find this combination in a film …
Little Man movie
I am not a fan of the Wayans brothers, their juvenile humor is too disgusting for my taste. However, I chose to see the movie Little Man, mostly because I found the idea of a full-grown man playing a midget (with some computer-generated help, of course) rather curious. Well, …
The Box Movie
It was a 2009 movie by Cameron Diaz and James Marsden. It was a story of a couple who received a box being delivered by a man named Arlington Steward played by Frank Langella.
It was curious at first what the box is all about until Mr. Steward came back …
“Couples Retreat” (2009 movie)
There is nothing left of the romantic comedy genre. It’s been on the decline for at least the past decade, with the odd exception that actually mixes the pathos and exhilaration of love lost and found with comedic coincidence and the kind of zany antics that for the most …
Ben (1972)
Even though sometimes the remake can actually be better than the original thought of the movie that was produced, but sometimes and more times than less, the original is still the best. This movie is about a boy who was always being bullied and he found a great friend …
Boys and Girls - (starring Freddie Prinze Jr.)
Any movies with Freddie Prinze Jr. in it, I love it. Totally! I’m so into him pretty much and in this movie story, he is the main hero like totally. I love his performance and acting pretty much and the way he loves a woman, it is …
Moulan Rouge movie
Moulan Rouge is the kind of movie that people either really love or really hate. It is a musical but contains no original music. Normally I would think this was a weakness, but the theme of the movie is a nightclub that caters to a generation of young people …
Movie Eternal Summer
“No one wishes to be lonely, neither do we.”
Many people might tag this as a gay movie, which it is, but it is also something more. Jonathan and Shane are people who have been best friends since primary school. Unknown to Shane, Jonathan has been in love with …
Movie : Quest for Camelot
We had a family movie night on Friday night; just me, the wife and the kids. Since I wanted something suitable for everyone, I looked for an animated family movie to watch. I ended up with Quest for Camelot.
This movie was better than expected. It was about a young …
Fab Five: The Texas Cheerleader Scandal (movie)
The first time when I saw “Fab Five: The Texas Cheerleader Scandal” was a couple years ago when it first premiered on the cable television station Lifetime. At the time, I had mistaken it for another movie sharing a similar name, but when I watched it, even though I …
Young at Heart movie
1954’s Young at Heart is one of my favorite movies. Interestly, though, I’ve changed how I liked it from when I was a little girl to how I like it as an adult. I always enjoyed it, but as a child, I wanted the resolution to the …
Twilight Movie
I have heard so many outrageous things said about the Twilight movie, and from people who haven’t even watched it. They have said that Edward Cullen isn’t a real vampire, that he’s a wimpy vampire, that he’s a pretty boy, and pretty much any other ridiculous thing that one …
Princess Diaries
The said movie is an adaptation of a book series by Meg Cabot, and although it is entirely different from the book version, I could still describe this movie as “transforming and relatable”.
The movie follows the story of Mia Thermopolis (Anne Hathaway), a gawky freshman student whose life was …
27 dresses
This was a ok movie but I think that they could have made it a lot better. It wasn’t all that funny and it was also boring throughout the movie. There were only a couple of parts that I thought were funny and most of those parts were shown …
Ultraviolet (2006)- DVD
2006’s Ultraviolet has an awesome concept. A virus has been discovered that alter humans who are affected by it and transforms them into enhanced beings, which way later on in the film you find out are supposed to be vampires. These affected people are considered outcasts. These “enhanced” humans …
Taken movie
Taken can easily be classified as another run-of-the-mill spy action movie—”because it is. There are only few changes in the plot that can make it a memorable one. The first is that Bryan Mills’ daughter is kidnapped not for ransom but for trade in the sex industry. The second …
Trial & Error
I am reviewing the movie, Trial & Error, starring Jeff Daniels and the Kramer guy from Seinfeld. There are two best friends. One of them is a highly respected, successful lawyer. He hasn’t lost a case. He is played by Jeff Daniels. He is engaged to be married …
Paranormal Activity movie
I was recently out and about with my boyfriend close to the movie theater. We were waiting for a friend to get into town from a couple hours away, but her bus had been delayed by two hours. We had two choices: walk home or find amusement for two …
Jumper Movie
I decided to reserve judgment against the movie Jumper until I had seen it for myself. Some of my friends saw the movie and loved it, while those who had the same taste as me in movies didn’t like it at all. I had a few chances to see …
Drugstore Cowboy movie
Drugstore Cowboy is a movie about a young man, Bob and his wife, Kelly. Matt Dillon plays Bob and Kelly Lynch is great as Diane. Bob and Diane have known each other since they were kids and have been getting in trouble for years. They both have been to …
The Garden movie
As far as documentaries go, The Garden, which was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Documentary Film, has everything that I love in this genre of film. It is a film that depicts the battle for a 14 acre piece of land in south central Los Angeles following …
