Kindergarten Cop movie
This is one of the oldest movies of Arnold Schwarzenegger. I first saw this film when I was just a young girl. Now, I have seen it again in HBO and it felt like I have only seen it now. It is a comedy film, not the usual Terminator …

Apocalypto
‘Apocalypto’ is an English movie directed by Mel Gibson. The movie is not good but is shot well, but there is too much of violence in the movie. The movie is action-packed and the story line is good. All the actors have performed well.
The main character is a young …
Hot Shots Part Deux
It’s been a while since I’ve seen the sequel to the movie Hot Shots; Hot Shots Part Deux. And I have to admit, after seeing it again this morning, it’s as good as I remember it being.
While the first Hot Shots movie made fun of the film Top Gun, …
I Love You, Man movie
I didn’t have high hopes for this movie. It looked cheesy, stooping for cheap laughs with fart and masturbation jokes. However, I was surprised to find it rather amusing; definitely not in my top fifty, but certainly decent and watchable.
The fart joke surprised me. I hate humor based on …
Head over Heels comedy
When my wife rented Head Over Heels this weekend I thought, “Great, another chick flick.” But, I was pleasantly surprised to find it both funny and charming.
The movie centers around a museum worker who rents a room shared by a bunch of super models. When the museum worker falls …
Marley & Me (2008) Movie
I liked the movie, ‘Marley & Me’ because it’s the story of a family that learns lessons important for life from their naughty and obsessed dog. Although I found the movie to be very beautiful and quite heart warming, there were scenes that were sensitive and touching too. The …
Ever Theater
There are only two movie houses in this part of the country– a fact quite interesting knowing that this place is considered as university town.
Ever theater is situated right in the heart of the city, inside a smaller shopping location of …

The Big Wheel movie
The Big Wheel is a movie I haven’t seen in a couple of decades, but I actually remember watching it off and on late night on TV when I was growing up. It’s a Mickey Rooney film, and it played often. Perhaps because it’s a movie …
August Rush
In a nutshell the film “August Rush” is about fate and dreams. What is fantastic about this great movie is that the young actor, Freddie Highmore acting abilities are simply wonderful. Before “August Rush”, Highmore also appeared in “Charlie and the Chocolate Factory” and “Finding Neverland”.
The story of “August …
The Breakfast Club
The Breakfast Club remains, to this day, my favorite teen movie, and one of my favorite films overall. Simply put, it’s a classic. John Hughes manages to define his five principal characters as much more than the simple stereotypes presented in most teenage driven movies, while, at the same …
Movie Fear
This movie features now famous Hollywood superstars Mark Wahlberg and Reese Witherspoon. I think it’s their first movie roles and they were still in their teens. I saw this movie a long time ago but I was perfectly sure that both of them are gonna be superstars (but who …
Movie Love Actually
The Popular Casts: Hugh Grant, Colin Firth, Rowan Atkinson,Liam Neeson, Emma Thompson, Keira Knightley.

Movie: Scary Movie 4
Synopsis: This 4th installment of the Scary Movie franchise spoofs the movie War of the Worlds with a group of people looking to escape from an alien invasion. Along they way, the movie also manages to spoof everything from Saw to Brokeback Mountain.
What I liked about this movie: I’m …
Zoolander (R, 2001)
When I first saw this movie I thought it was really going to be stupid. And I was right. But with actors like Will Ferrell and Owen Wilson aboard for the laughs, you can expect all the lame jokes to be illustrated in full effect. …
“Pacific Rim” movie
The geek community had high hopes for this movie. Having giant robots fighting giant monsters seems like a guaranteed good time, but the fact that Guillermo Del Toro was helming the project only added to the hype.
I have to admit, Del Toro’s been on a hot streak lately. …
The Beautician and the Beast
This silly little flick of a movie seems to be one of those that people either love, for whatever reason, or hate. It was filmed in 1997 when the Soviet Union no longer existed, but certain fascination with it obviously still did; so the moviemakers invented this Eastern European …
The Damned movie
A story that focuses on rich german people during the World War II and how naive they were. Director Luchino Visconti is known for his long epic-style films, and this one is not an exception. The narrative is slow but yet very engaging. Visconti gives his audience a lot …
John Tucker Must Die (Movie)

Capote
I had heard this was such a great movie, so I borrowed it from my local library. I had intended to read the book InCold Blood by Truman Capote, I went as far as to buy a copy at a yard sale but I did not get around to …
Netflix
I subscribed to Netflix video rental service about two months ago. Things for the most part run very smoothly on a consistent basis. It takes about two days from the shipment center to my house, and two days back. Although sometimes it takes much longer and I’ll wait up …
Last Vegas (2013 Film)
Last Vegas is a comedy film I was eager to see after viewing the trailer for it one evening. I wasn’t hesitant in watching it due to all the veteran actors that would be starring in the film. I just knew that a film with Michael Douglas, Robert De Niro, …
Bee Season
After embracing Buddhism, the actor Richard Gere is getting very attentive which movies to be involved in. In all honestly, I am not surprised that he chose to particate in “Bee Season”. The biggest surprise was that this is not a Gere or Juliet Binochet movie, but solely a …
Howard’s End (1992)
An older lady, Mrs. Wilcox, befriends a younger one, Margaret (Emma Thompson). When she learns that Margaret’s family is about to lose their house of many years, Mrs. Wilcox wants to give them Howard’s End, her old house where she grew up. Unfortunately, she comes to this decision a …
The Eye Movie
The Eye is one of those movies that I kind of wanted to see, but I really wasn’t sure if I would like it. As one of those rare (very rare) horror fans that never really liked the Japanese imports, I’ve been more than a little disappointed at the …
Sean Penn’s Indian Runner. A Movie
I watched this movie over at my parents house a few months ago and quite honestly I was not overly impressed. The movie was both written and directed by Sean Penn and released in 1991 by 20th Century Fox Home Entertainment.
The title on this movie is very misleading …
Babel, the movie
I got to see the movie Babel with a friend last week, and we came out with mixed opinions. I liked the film, and she was less thrilled by it. We both agreed on several things, though. We agreed that the film is fairly interesting and …
Flesh for Frankenstein movie
This is supposed to be a more artsy depiction of Mary Shelley’s classic novel. Paul Morrissey, perhaps the weirdest filmmaker ever, directed this. It stars Udo Kier as dr Frankenstein, the rest are mostly amateurs. I don’t know if I would call this film artsy, but it certainly was …
Just Like Heaven movie
I’m not a teeny pinky type of person who likes “pop culture”. But, I must say, though the movie “Just Like Heaven” considered as a romatic-comedy that is the target crowd was kind of teens turns out nicely nice.
It is indeed a light kind of movie with a justified …
Movie Jarhead
I just got finished watching this movie not to long ago. It was really good, my only complain about the movie is that it could have had a better ending to it. It was overall a pretty good movie. It made me laugh a little in some parts, but …
Cloverfield
Cloverfield is a movie about a small group of friends trying to survive an attack on New York City by a giant monster.This sounds simple and the synopsis itself is, however the brilliance of the movie shines when you consider how the story is told. The whole movie is …
Power to the Peephole
No episode better showcases the out of date parodies of Tripping the Rift than this episode: “Power to the Peephole” which bases its entire B plot (or is it the C plot) around the whole Monica Lewinsky debacle. Not just a joke or two, but it is actually …
Carousel movie
Just one year after Oklahoma, Shirley Jones and Gordon MacRae reunited in Carousel, which is another classic movie musical. The chemistry was still there, though the ending is very different, in part by the nature of the story itself.
My favorite part of the movie, though, is the ending …
Open Season 2
Open season 2 was a cute, enjoyable movie to watch. It wasn’t as good as the first one though. The first movie was a lot more funnier. Elliot is getting married in the second movie to Giselle and he starts to have cold feet. I think that this movie …
A Real Young Girl (NR, 2001) movie
I was interested in watching all of Catherine Breillat’s films when I saw the movies “Fat Girl” and “Sex is Comedy.” But in watching 2001’s “A Real Young Girl”, I was just left confused. I enjoyed that Breillat supplied viewers with an extremely intimate take on female …
Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy (2004 Film)
After watching this 2004 comedy, “Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy”, starring Will Ferrell, Steve Carrel, Christina Applegate and more dynamite caste members I will forever remember the name Ron Burgundy. There’s something about the sexist lines, the mix of actors, and the infatuation of nearly everyone on the …
Murder by Television movie
It’s Bela Lugosi doing his thing in the vintage movie, Murder by Television. This is going back to the beginnings of TV, when networks and manufacturers were making the concept work and striving to make it better than their competitor.
This movie is all about industrial piracy, so …
Juno - Movie
Juno is an interesting movie to watch that raises some real life issues such as teenage pregnancy and abortion.
It is about this young 16 year old girl that falls pregnant to this guy at school. She freaks out when she found out and instantly thought of aborting her …
