Dhoom-2
I think the Indians films will be giving hollywood a run for money in few years. Dhoom-2 is a very good film, except for the few minor cliches the film is a treat to watch. Hrithik Roahan rocks even in the negative role. The film is worth watching only …
Holiday in Handcuffs (2007 Film)
“Holiday in Handcuffs” was a 2007 film that, while it was festive for the holiday season, it did not really wow me as I had hoped that it would. I don’t want to say that this film was a complete dud, and that I didn’t enjoy watching it, it …
Titan A.E. (2000)
The animated movie based in the future of the world tries to enlighten the viewers that discovery of things great and small must be done with extreme caution and due respect for other species and their way of life. This movie shows that the discovery of an alien race …
We own the night
This movie is about a man who does drugs and manages a night club, most of his family are cops. I think that the movie could have been a lot better. Even though there was a lot going on I was kind of bored through out the whole movie, …
Nine Queens (Nueve Reinas) 2000
“Nine Queens” is a 2000 movie from Argentina about grifters or con-men. The movie is in Spanish but the DVD comes with a choice of subtitles. The movie is in color and was filmed on locations throughout Buenos Aires.
Ostensibly the movie is about two con-men: Juan, played by …
The New World Movie
Last night I was able to walk down to the local movie theatre and view “The New World.” This was a film I was pretty excited about to see because it was rarely released to local theatres, plus Christian Bale was in it.
Well, I don’t drink alcohol, but …
Happy Feet Movie
A great family movie, we will definately be buying this one on dvd to go in our collection. A story about singing penquins and how one young penguin finds it hard to fit in because he cant sing, when he starts tapping his feet and doing a tap like …
Dogma (1999)
A twisted story about two fallen angels who want back into heaven, but their method of their return will make the history that has been solidified over the years seem pointless. In order to stop their campaign, a host of both angels and mortals are teamed together to bring …
Definitely, Maybe
Definitely, Maybe is a movie that I think is fairly good. Not that fantastic, but doing pretty alright. Ryan Reynolds star in this movie, together with the very talented Abigail Breslin. Abigail plays Maya, a daughter that is very inquisitive and it’s fun to watch her questioning …
The Elephant Man (1980)
Released in 1980, and directed by David Lynch, this movie can undoubtedly be defined as one of the saddest movies of all time. I’ve only seen it twice, and I don’t really plan to see it more, at least not for some time. I’m easily caught up in good …

The original release date was December 21, 2007 for United States audience. This movie falls in thegenre of Drama/Romance and stars Hilary Swank as Holly …
Wall E
Pixar, the creator of many animation movies like “Finding Nemo”, “Cars”, etc. This year, they switched their focus on a slightly more heart warming, futuristic and light animation movie: “Wall E”.
The detailed environment of the show is there, most of it are relatively normal. The special effects of the …

Brown Sugar movie
Backwhen I was still in high school, the movie “Brown Sugar” seemed ot be a big thing amongst some of my peers. At the time I didn’t know what many people where talking about either since I neither heard about it nor saw it advertise. Poeple were even talking …
Movie Thunderball
Thunderball with Sean Connery and Claudine Auger.
This is one of the earlier James Bond sequels and therefore features the super handsome Sean Connery in the lead. It does lack some of the refined touched that we came to enjoy in the newer sequels such as …
The Company of Wolves (1984)
This is a unique werewolf movie based on “Red Riding Hood” and one I enjoyed watching. Angela Landsbury is the star and she does a wonderful job of playing the girl’s grandmother. Based on the clothing the characters wear, the story is set during Pilgrim days except it takes …
30 Day Of Night
I love vampire movies; you could say that I really like to get my teeth in to a good vampire horror film. 30 Days of Night stars Josh Hartnett, Melissa George, Danny Huston and Ben Foster. Its rating is MA. The film is supposed to be in a small …
Miral (2010 film) by Julian Schnabel
When I read the short outline of this movie, I thought I was reading a news article. I just saw Miral earlier, and it was probably the only culturally significant movie I’ve seen of this year. To summarize, Miral is one way to understand the political conflict …
The Pianist (2006)
I loved the movie “The Pianist” (2006). The Roman Polanski movie three Oscars and probably deserved more. The movie tells the story of real-life Polish Pianist Wladyslaw Szpilman, a Jew, who lived in Warsaw before, during, and after World War II. I found the movie believable and touching without …
Time Changer
Wow, what can you say about this little “masterpiece” of Christian cinema? The premise is pretty simple: a man from the 19th century travels through time to the beginning of the 21st century and is amazed by how immoral and corrupt and violent the world is. His …
A kidnapping in the family
This is one of the lifetime movies that I watched a couple of years ago. I have seen it twice if I remember correctly. Although it wasn’t one of my favorites from them it is definately worth watching. I really liked it overall, I thought that it was a …
Pursuit of Happyness
How lucky is Will Smith to be able to act with his real life son Jaden? What a fine performance the two of them put in to make Pursuit of Happyness such a joy to see. It is the story of hope, tenacity, desperation, all the things humans in …
The Blood of Fu Manchu movie
“The Castle of Fu Manchu” is one of Christopher Lee’s older movies. Like the other movie “The Castle of Fu Manchu”, most people I know either like this film or hate it. It never seems to be in between. Personally I think this one is not much better than …
Spy (2015)- Comedy Movie
Spy is a comedy movie written and directed by Paul Feig. Honestly, i was never interested in this movie but the only reason that made me watch it was Jason Statham. According to me he is the biggest attraction, though he is only present for few scenes but being his …
The Wizard of Oz (1939)
“The Wizard of Oz” is one of the best MGM musicals of all time and a film that continues to cross generational lines. I read somewhere that they had originally wanted Shirley Temple to play the part of Dorothy. As talented a child actress as Temple was, …
Reflecting Skin
A hypnotic film with Viggo Mortensen about him coming home after a long time to take care of his younger brother. The Reflecting Skin is the closest thing to cinematic poetry I have ever seen. The boundaries between dream and reality is completely erased here and the only thing …
Ironman
“Ironman” was one of my favorite movies for 2008. I had actually put off watching it for just the right time when I would be at home alone to watch it, as I had been very busy and broke when the movie was released in theatres. I was also …
Mirrors (2008)
This story comes to us as viewers with the intentions of scaring us into thinking that there is another world living in the mirrors. Things that are trouble or brought to provocation will attack with lethal intent. When this movie started, it showed a man running for his life …
The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift, movie
Coming off of two moderately successful films, the third Fast and Furious film drops the likes of Pual Walker and Vin Diesel and takes a turn back to driving roots. There is no drug plot, no criminal investigation, this movie is about driving fast and the art of drifting.
Set …
Student Seduction (movie)
I don’t usually watch much of the local television station Lifetime, but I’ve noticed that sometimes there are some interesting movies that are aired even though most of them don’t seem to be given much of a high rating by a lot of sources, including the internet movie database. …
Star Trek III movie
When it comes to Star Trek movies, there are none better than Star Trek III, The Search for Spock.
Taking place shortly after the Wrath of Khan (in which Spock dies at the end) the movie starts with Spocks funeral, where he is launched on to the developing planet Genesis. …
A Wrinkle In Time Movie
I was fairly young when I first picked up the book “A Wrinkle in Time” — but to his day, very few novels (with the ultimate exception of the Harry Potter series) have managed to match it.
The book is one of high adventure and heavy imagination — and, as …
Grease
At the time of its release, many critics were apt to complain about the casting of Grease. They thought that the ages of the actors, playing much younger characters, was a hindrance and that the film would suffer. The huge box office that this fun and extremely lovable film …
The Glass Menagerie movie
WHen I was in high school I used to hear some adults as well as English teachers talking about the time when the book “The Glass Menagerie” used to be a literature book which students had to read in order to pass one of their exams. Out of curiosity, …
Nagesh Kukunoor
Nagesh Kukunoor :- he is one of the most the young talented film makers we have in country today. His debut HYDERABAD CLUES was a big hit among the niche audience. It lasted for over 50 weeks in one the Mumbai theatres. Kukunoor has given some …
Where It’s At movie
Where It’s At is another movie from the sixties about the generation gap, in an odd sort of way. In truth, I don’t like this movie. It’s just a little too off-beat for me. I didn’t like the characters, I don’t like their evolution, and there’s not …
The Pit (movie)
I’ll admit it, the only reason I bought the movie The Pit is the fact it was filmed in my home town of Beaver Dam, WI and I wanted to see how much of the town I recognized. And, to be honest, if it weren’t for the fact I …
House Of Wax Movie
The movie House of Wax was kind of disappointing, especially considering all the hype around it just because Paris Hilton was in it. It was really disappointing, as it almost kind of made you hope she could do something besides….well we all heard about the videos. Elisha Cuthbert and …
Thinking XXX (NR, 2004) documentary
One might think that documentaries about sexually explicit topics will be full of juicy material. I found this one downright boring. While it was interesting to see porn stars (like Tera Patrick) actually taking part in interviews, some of the dialogue and things they were talking about …
Pet Sematary
This is one scary movie, and no wonder: it’s based on a Stephen King book. Don’t watch it unless you’re a fan of horror films. Also, don’t watch it if you are an animal lover.
A family moves into a house at a remote place in Maine, the husband, the …
Three Amigos
It has been a while since I last saw the movie Three Amigos. And, while I remembered it being funny, I had my doubts that it was as funny as I remembered.
Tonight, I got to see it again. And, I have to admit, it is as funny as I …
Alvin and The Chipmunks
Everyone who was born in the 80’s cant not know the chipmunks. These 3 cute fellows who made it big in our televisions. I loved them as a kid and watched every show. Now that they made a movie of it, entitled Alvin and the Chipmunks, i was sure …
Stuart Little 2: The Movie
I was never a big fan of the first Stuart Little. The whole idea that two adults would adopt a little talking mouse was always a little creepy to me, because even though I think that mice are kind of cute, I probably would have run away as soon …
Pirates of the Caribbean: At World’s End
Yes, Jack Sparrow is back. Johnny Depp has proved once again that he’s one of the best actors in the world. Why? Because he managed to achieve a good role in, maybe, one of the weakest plots and one of the worst directions in the history of the movie …
Fullmetal Alcehmist Brotherhood Episode 5
Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood Episode 5 begins with a brief recap of the last episode and then starts with Ed running up to his mother Trisha and showing her a metal toy horse he transmuted. She says she’s proud of him then asks him why he couldn’t make mommy …
