“The Toolbox Murders” (1978 Film)
The Toolbox Murders is a well known “slasher” film released in 1978. I had heard good about the name before and, being a huge horror film enthusiast, I figured it was well worth giving a view. After seeing the film, I feel that it was a good film that …
Scary Movie 2
I just took a few minutes to review the movie Scary Movie. Since I did that, I wanted to take another couple minutes to talk about the sequel, Scary Movie 2; which is one of the very few sequels that might actually be better than the original.
I like this …
When Harry Met Sally (movie)
When Harry Met Sally is the ultimate boy meets girl, girl doesn’t like boy, boy meets girl again and they become friends, boy and girl fall in love and get married story. I love this movie! I know, it’s a little, sappy love story and it was filmed a …
Movie Dr. Jekyll and The Wolfman (1971)
Ok, has a movie ever had a title that told you everything you wanted to know about the film’s contents like this one?
Here’s the rundown. Waldemar is back and he ain’t paying attention to the continuity of the previous films. He’s in Victorian England and cursed to be a …
Step up 2 the street
This will be about the movie Step up 2 the street. This movie is about a girl dancer trying to prove herself and fit in with a new crowd. She then fell in love with the person that gave her a hard time in the first place. Over all …
50 First Dates movie
Imagine what it would be like to wake up every day with your memory blank. You can’t remember what you did yesterday (or the day before, or the day before that). You can’t remember people you’ve met, either. Even your next door neighbors would have to introduce themselves to …
V for Vendetta movie
I recently saw the movie “V for Vendetta“. This film takes place in London in the near future. The United States has fallen apart and England is now run by a totalitarian government which seeks to control every aspect of the citizens lives. Coming on to …
National Treasure movie
National Treasure is widely acknowledged as a bad movie. If you go into this movie expecting the next Indiana Jones, then yes, you will be disappointed and while I agree that it is not perfect, I found to be an entertaining movie. The movie is basically about …
Constantine Movie
In the name of all that is horror…don’t waste your time or money with Constantine. It’s a joke, no, less than a joke, it’s utter rubbish. Keanu Reeves has gotten to be a tired, boring actor who NEEDS to add some spice to his roles/characters. The plot of the …
Dumbo
Dumbo is a timeless animation classic. This movie will forever live in the hearts of those who saw it. I think that the story of the tiny elephant with big ears was very cute and very sad as well. I was very happy as a kid when I saw this …
Black Water DVD
I rented this DVD to watch over a weekend. This film really ruined my weekend. A really boring film, with hardly any scenes. It should have been labeled as drama or documentary rather than horror/thriller.
The movie is about these 3 people Adam, Grace an Lee decide to fish in …
Silent Hill (starring Radha Mitchell)
Silent Hill starring Radha Mitchell is quite a dark movie. Radha plays a very distraught mom in this movie and her character name is Rose. She goes into Silent Hill in search of her daughter whom has this problem of sleep-walking. Little does she know that this …
Bedtime Stories movie
I love to watch light-heart, funny and humorous movies along with my family, it has been two months when I watched this movie for the first time, and I still love to watch this movie whenever I get time. This movie uses a lot of imagination to create …
Snakes on a Plane, David Ellis Movie
‘Snakes on a Plane’ (SoaP) is one of the internet phenomenon in the beginning. Long before released, this movie becomes the subject of debate and discussion, which is quite warm. And it is quite a trick successfully. ‘SoaP’ successfully occupies the first rank Box Office when released.
A young …
The Lake House movie
I’m usually not a big romance movie kind of guy but I do think Keanu Reeves and Sandra Bullock make a good film couple so I thought I would give Lake House a try.
Overall, I have to say it was a good movie, though it did remind me a …
The Pirates Who Don’t Do Anything (2008)
I like pirate movies and I had wanted to see this one for some time, so I was happy when I found it on the shelf of my local library. I had seen the preview before on other children’s DVDs and had thought it looked interesting. Truthfully, I found …
The Blind Side movie
Let me start by saying I had no idea The Blind Side was based on a true story. I watched the entire movie without this knowledge, and honestly I’m not sure my opinion of it would’ve changed much having known. There was a lot of hype about the movie, …
Dungeons & Dragons (2000)
A fantasy movie about an evil wizard who is searching for a magical and powerful artifact that he is willing to use to control the Red Dragons that will in turn assist him in controlling his world. He has sent out his evil henchmen to scour the land to …
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 …
The Warriors
The Warriors with Michael Beck and James Remar.
This classic struggle for survival is one of my all time favorites. The action all occurs at night on the streets of New York City. I think that I enjoyed it so much because I could …
American Gun
I was a bit surprised that I did not hear about this movie when it was being released in theatres. However, I realised later that it was probably because I was a bit busy at the time. I thought that this movie had some fairly good acting in it …
Man on Fire film
One of the best action films I have ever seen. Denzel Washington and Dakota Fanning are the lead cast in this film and a do a superb job to say the least! Denzel plays a lost man trying to find peace, do to a obvious history of violence and …
Mike Hammer: Murder Takes All movie
From 1989, Mike Hammer: Murder Takes All stars Stacy Keach in the title role of the famous private eye created by Mickey Spillane. This is somewhat of a weird plot that has Mike Hammer being transported covertly to Las Vegas. One thing leads to another and Hammer …
Batman 1966 Movie
With all of the different versions of Batman in the past, the present, and the future, there are very few if any who can truly compare to the Batman that Adam West created in the 60s. His Batman was more unique and personal then I think any other Batman …
Twin Peaks Season 2
My two big brothers got me hooked on Twin Peaks only about five years ago. I had heard of the series before, but had never had the chance to watch it on television. I was too young! I liked the first season, despite the fact that it …

Teeth, movie by Mitchell Lichtenstein
Teeth is a movie written and directed by Mitchell Lichtenstein and stars Jess Weixler. It premiered at the 2007 Sundance Film Festival.
I’ll admit, this movie wasn’t what I expected. I first rented it because I …
Movie Apocalypto
This movie is excellent in every way but I was skeptical until I sat down to watch it. Mel Gibson directs an action packed story-line that grabs your adrenaline first and your heart second. In the beginging of this movie you are introduced to a tribe of early Aztec …
Dersu Uzala movie
The greatest japanese director of all time is Akira Kurosawa if you ask me. Dersu Uzala was his second color film, made in Russia when the master director was out of money and needed to look for investors abroad. The story is about some russian soldiers with a captain …
Independence day
Well, what an intriguing mystery on how the aliens (if there are) may look like was given a hypothetical description in this movie. Yes, it is possible that our technology here on earth may be a little rusty but perhaps those aliens could have done something about their …
Se7en (1995 Classic Thriller Film)
When everyone else is busy watching the seemingly endless mediocre movies put out by today’s filmmakers who happens to only entertain, I’m here digging up classics which I thought would be medicine to my ever needing needs for great films.
It’s been my tradition to watch classic films now and then. …
Religulous documentary
This is an excellent documentary - not only is it a must see but it is a must buy for your video library. I would warn though, for people who are religious - a lot of content may be viewed as offensive. In the documentary Bill Maher …
Movie Fired Up
We watched the movie Fired Up this past weekend. When I decided to watch it, I wasn’t sure what to expect, but it turned out to be an OK movie.
OK, let me start out by saying this film isn’t for everyone in the family. It was about as raunchy …
Lady in the Water (PG-13, 2006) movie
This movie got a really bad rap. I think that M. Night Shyamalan makes some really great films. I knew that this movie would not be “scary” because of the things that were said before it was released. But what people have to understand about this …
The Fighting Sullivans movie
From 1944, The Fighting Sullivans is the true story of an Irish family’s strength and togetherness. The first part of the movie shows the ups and downs of five brothers. They fought a lot, but they were completely united. Halfway through, the boys age, and the …
Frankenstein
My daughter has found she likes watching old black and white movies with me; including some classic horror movies. So we took the time to sit down and watch the 1931 film Frankenstein last night.
This movie is probably not suitable for all children. But, I know my daughter ended …
ConAir (1997)
This movie, though with some violent scenes, for me, is one of my ‘feel good movies’ I can brag about having seen. The good guys in this movie, Cameron Poe (Nicolas Cage) and US Marshall Vince Larkin (John Cusack) did a very good job. I am also very …
Minstrel Man movie
Minstrel Man from 1944 really transports a person back to another generation when black face was the rage. It’s hard to believe that era existed, but it did, and many found it to be highly entertaining.
The movie stars Benny Fields as an entertainer named Dixie Boy Johnson. …
The Dark Knight
By now everyone has seen The Dark Knight, and there are more than enough reviews so rather than focus on how good the movie is I want to focus on my thoughts on what the movie is. The movie isn’t really about Batman it’s about the Joker, something most people …
A Cinderella Story
I loved this movie because of my crush Chad Michael Murray, a very handsome guy in his own way..lol.
A friend of mine accompanied me to watched this film and because of this film she noticed that Chad Michael Murray is really a hunk.Hmm.I’ve got a rival already.
This movie …
Hollywood Homicide (2003)
Ok my good people, I guess we asked for it and it was given to us as promised, this is where Hollywood meets police meets Hollywood get it? Me neither, but in essence, this movie is about two police detectives who are not getting enough payment from their regular …

The Good Guy Movie
I saw The Good Guy at the recommendation of a close friend who absolutely loved it. She did preface it with the fact that she did not really know why she loved it so much but something about it really stuck with her. Also, it helped that she had …
Red Eye (2005 movie)
This is a pretty straight forward thriller, meanie that is not very hard to follow and, it is a reasonable good movie. It’s about a woman who is befriended at the airport and later held captive on a flight heading to Florida. She is instructed by her captor to …
