Nanny McPhee and the Big Bang Movie
This was the second installment of the movie Nanny McPhee. It was another comedy and fun movie for kids and kids at heart because of the magical and wit touch of the movie.
Surely Emma Thompson was just the same character as she was in the first sequel of the …

Old Joy movie
An abundant of people denounce against movies because they think that films are just made for entertainment and they spoil a child’s mind. This is not true because many films today are educational and teach us the values of life. I visited the Detroit Film Theatre on December 2, …

The Man from Earth - 2007 - by Jerome Bixby
This is a truly a great film from start to finish. If you like fast action movies, this is not for you, it takes place in a two room studio and the drama comes from the sharp dialogue rather than the scenery.
The title does not provide …
The Quantum of Solace
I saw the latest Bond flick over the weekend with a few of my friends. I am not a huge Bond fan by any stretch of the imagination, but I’ve seen most of Bond movies, especially the ones released in the past 15 years, so I have at least …
PumpkinHead
PumpkinHead is a pretty good scary movie. The movie is kind of old but still pretty creepy. The movie is about a demon named PumpkinHead. PumpkinHead is a demon that can be called up to get revenge on someone who did you wrong. But his power is very evil, and …
Moulin Rouge (2001)
This movie is a musical based on the love shared between a writer and a cabaret actress. How quaint that most musicals encompass the same thing. This movie, while it did manage to grasp quite a few nominations for Oscars, only managed to scrape through with winning only two …
Battlefield Earth (2000)
The Earth has been taken over and is now being controlled by a race of giant aliens. The survivors of the attack on Earth were being used as slaves to help the aliens to continue their rule on the planet; others have managed to escape and are living in …
The Texas Chainsaw Massacre movie
The Texas Chainsaw Massacre is a blood and guts horror film about a group of kids being chased around by a chainsaw wielding, crazy man. There is a plot, yes, but it is thin and not the reason why you should watch this movie. I also want to be …
The Women (Movie)
This is a very nice movie and when I watched this I was reminded by Sex and the City, but the girls here are much laid-back and more conservative and more professional and laid-back than the cast of Sex and the City, but they aren’t necessarily boring.
The movie features …
The Incredibles
This movie was, if you’ll pardon the use of the word, incredible. And believe it or not, it was not because of the animation. It was the story that made this film so likable. So good, in fact, that I almost wish it were a live action superhero movie …
Brother Bear movie
An animated film about three brothers who fight against a great bear with an unfortunate outcome. The youngest of these brothers is put into a peculiar situation and needs to find a certain mountain to survive.
Extraordinary animated movie considering the mere visual area, but it really doesn’t have anything …
Predators (2010): the movie
Predators, a big-budget blockbuster in the predator versus alien series, is different from the other films in that it takes place on a distant planet. In the previous predator versus alien titles, the action took place on earth, with both the aliens and predators being visitors on our …
Chronicles of Narnia : Prince Caspian
Although this movie had been aired for quite some time in the cinema, I haven’t had the time to watch the movie until recently. I watched the first part, The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe, and I find the storyline very interesting. That is why I watched …
Movie Defiantely Maybe
My son and I went to the movies today. I wanted to see a light hearted movie that I had heard about. I wanted to see the movie entitled Defiantely Maybe. This movie was about a thirtysomething year old man who is in the midst of a …

Set in the future, Nemesis is about a police officer who is not quite human but part machine. Actually, this is something very common, and until this police officer, named Alex, is injured in a fight with terrorists, he is just as anyone else. But after this he needs …
Scrooged (1988)
A wealthy, ruthless TV executive is the focus of this modern day remake of the classic tale of the story of Scrooge. As the story goes, this person is cold hearted and career driven to the point that no one likes to be around him yet alone work with …
Duma movie
Few movies that are noncartoon can entertain my two three years old. However, last night HBO was playing their new hit, Duma. From what I have come to understand, this is one of Walt Disney’s new classic movies about the life of a leopard and his relationship …
Man in the Iron Mask
In the late ninteen nineties the young actor Leonardo DiCaprio was one of the most popular actors in Hollywood. This was because not only was his acting good, but his movies were usually very interesting and he was a very handsome young man. Thus when the movie “Man in …
Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl (2003)
“Pirates” is simply one of those movies that will not be off the current younger generation’s top films list. For me (and many others, I suspect), it was gateway into now-legendary actor Johnny Depp’s career. The guy’s performance in this movie, while not a magnum opus, no doubt reveals …
Inception movie
Oh. My. God. If only I could write this review in caps, I would have wholeheartedly done so just to stress how freaking amazing this movie is.
From someone who watched the likes of Rashomon to My Favorite Martian on a daily rotating basis, I sadly found myself living …
Blood Will Out movie
I am reviewing the movie, Blood Will Out, starring John Nettles and Daniel Casey as Chief Inspector Tom Barnaby and Detective Sergeant Gavin Troy. This movie was made in 1999, was produced by Brian True May, and was based off of the novels written by author Caroline Graham.
In this …

Yesterday I watched the movie of House of wax. Well, it was really frightening. The main caracters are Elisha Cuthbert, Paris Hilton, Chad Michael Murray, Jared Padalecki, Jon Abrahams. A group of friends on their way to a college football game falls prey to a pair of murderous brothers …
Coraline cartoon movie
I have just finished watching “Coraline” and I thought about writing the review now with the memory of it fresh in my head.
It is a cute cartoon movie, a bit too spooky for young children but nevertheless very moralizing.
I have let my son watch it with me and he …
Identity - The Movie
This movie is a shocker/thriller story. It starred John Cusack played as Edward. Ray Liotta, a convict escaped and played a cop, Rebecca DeMornay a TV star, Amanda Peet a call girl in the movie.
The story is about a psycho-killer. He would kill without reason. He …
Watchmen (2009)
A surprising and good film, the Watchmen was an adequately well done action film. A bit too cerebral at times, but very well directed. Based on the famous comic (graphic novel) by Alan Moore. The movie did a good job of transferring most of the depth …
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 …
Art Of Revenge
Art Of Revenge is a Lifetime movie that starts off with a young, married couple who seems to have it all. Or at least that is what the movie producers want you to think. Art of Revenge started off, as I perceived the movie, with a whining wife and …
Speed (Movie 1994)
With upcoming stars at the time was Keanu Reeves and Sandra Bullock, they play against veteran actor this time a bad guy in Dennis Hopper. An eccentric bomber plans to be wealthy by cashing in on ransom funds, while a cop teams up with a female civilian and tries …
Sahara movie
After the defeat in Tobruk in 1942, Joe Gunn leads his troops through the desert of Sahara to get away from Rommel’s army and reach his allied forces.
This film is completely lacking all form of intelligence. I doubt it’s even historically correct, because everything that happens seem so over-dramatized …
Sky Pirates movie
During World War II, a pilot is given a mission to transport secret cargo over the atlantic. In the middle of the flight something happens with the airplane, and this is believed to have some connection to the secret cargo. Does it also have something to do with the …
DOA: Dead Or Alive Movie
I may be a girl, but that doesn’t mean that I can’t appreciate a woman who looks good. When I saw DOA: Dead Or Alive I just happened to get a little more than I intended to. A large portion of the movie is devoted to the women in …
The Wedding Ringer - Comedy Movie (2015)
The Wedding Ringer is a Comedy movie that delivers- in parts. Often I was laughing really hard but other times the comedy got a little bland. I did enjoy myself and found the change on the classic ‘loser get’s the hot girl’, interesting.
The story is about a man named Doug …
Becoming Jane
Becoming Jane is a movie about Jane Austen, the author of six deep and thoughtful romance novels that have all been made into movies, most of them more than once. The movie cannot be really called Jane’s biography, although there are some historical names mentioned. It so happens that …
Daniel Craig is a GREAT 007
Initially I thought that Daniel Craig would not be a good James Bond. I thought he was not worthy of the 007 title. I am Bond purist. At first glance, I thought that he did not fit the style. Plus, he seemed like he had too much softness about …
Tangled Movie
I’m a fan of fairytale stories from Cinderella, Snow white, Goldilocks, Beauty and the beast and many more. I’m 22 years old and I still believe in happily ever after. When Tangled was first introduced I never hesitated and watched the film on its first day. I’ll …
Persepolis the movie
I watched this movie just today with my mom. I was told by my friends it was nice and all that, but when I watched it, I wasn’t sure how to feel. The beginning was very interesting. I loved the way they made this movie just …
Oscar (1991)
Who ever knew that Sylvester Stallone could be a comedian, and a pretty good one at that. I have to commend the directors who put together this magnificent cast, they hit the jackpot. A mobster trying to go legit, with a comedic twist, you’ve got to love it. There …
Blade II,movie
After the original came yet another spectacular movie. It’s actioned packed that kept me on the edge of my seat right through. Did I mention the action? There is alot of action in this one…alot of action. Blade got the stuffing beat out of him and I enjoyed it, …
Legally Blonde
I have watched Legally Blonde like 5 times and counting, and still I am not bored with it at all. The DVD is always amongst my top 5 of movies that I will watch on a regular basis and Reese Witherspoon sizzles as we already know and alongside Luke …
The Danish Girl (Biographical Drama Movie)
I hesitated in watching the movie “The Danish Girl” for a long time because I wasn’t sure that I would find it fascinating enough for me to like. However, eventually I warmed to the idea and decided to take the risk watching it, especially after I realised that it received …
Happy feet movie
The movie is so awesome! It maybe cartoons but made with very decent graphics! I love the flow of the story; it’s about an outcast penguin in Antartica..Wait who wants to be an outcast anyways? But it happens everywhere. In this movie, they are flock of penguins and one …
Wolverine the Movie
Wolverine the movie is one of the most anticipated fils this year. Marvel goes beyond comics and television. X-men is now conquering the cinema scene.
This first installement of I’m guessing all the X-men members origin is a very effective appetizer to X-men fans out there.
The arrogant and lonely Logan, …
