Clash of the Titans (1981 movie)
Here is a movie that I think directors will have a wonderul time with the remake, that’s if they have what it takes to re-invent the characters and make them seem real enough for the viewing public. Based in mythical times with mythical creatures such as the gigantic titans, …

Spiderman The Motion Picture

Salt Movie (2010)

American Psycho
Christian Bale shines in this movie, being a very ‘bad’ person, if you get what I mean. I think he’s a real psycho deal in this movie, and his character is really so convincingly bad, that I think most good looking guys like him are real bad. This …

This a 2011 movie but I watched it with my friends just recently this year. It went for approximately 1 hour and 50 minutes. Originally I wanted to watch MI4, but after watching Tower Heist I know that I made the right decision to watch it.
Although it wasn’t …

The Maltese Falcon
I have seen dozens of mysteries but none of them compare to the movie The Maltese Falcon. Even though the movie was made 34 years before I was born, it is still the best murder mystery ever.
Humphrey Bogart is amazing as the detective Sam Spade. There’s nothing to not …
Girl Positive (movie)
As I mentioned previously I love watching some Lifetime movies even though a lot of them aren’t necessarily up to par when it comes to acting, writing and directing. Even the storylines at time don’t even add up. However, when I watched the movie “Girl, Positive”, it was definitely …

They Live a classically bad sci-fi flick
I’m actually old enough to remember Roddy Piper in his prime as a pro wrestler and when he left the industry to pursue a movie career. As the movie They Live proves, he should have stuck to wrestling.
Overall, it’s not a terrible movie. Piper plays a homeless man who …

Snow Globe
Normally, I dread watching Christmas movies. They rarely offer anything new and are so full of cliches, you can pretty much predict what will happen next.
Tonight, I got to watch a Christmas movie that I actually enjoyed.
ABC Family’s movie, Snow Globe, is a Christmas movie that is so original, …
Big Hero 6 (Movie)
I keep seeing pictures of this movie in several sites I’ve been surfing and I got curious. Since this movie is from Disney, I didn’t expect it to be a ‘Hero story’. But they did a good job.

Cross Creek movie
“Cross Creek” proves that Hollywood movie makers don’t always have to spend millions of dollars to make good films. This movie is based on an autobiographical book by novelist Marjorie Kinnan Rawlings, who is best known for writing “The Yearling.” I don’t usually like Mary Steenburgen, but …

Man on Fire (2004) Movie
The 2004 version of ‘Man on Fire’ is a cracking film which, although it contains a hell of a lot of action and violence, is far from your average one-dimensional action flick. Starring one of my favourite actors, Denzel Washington, as ex-CIA assassin ‘Creasy’ who initially has no …
Movie The Unborn
At first I really wanted to see this film. The previews looked incredibly scary. And as usual the powers that be put the scariest, most disturbing scenes in the actual trailer. I cannot believe that I actually was going to visit the movie theater …

“Mean Creek” (R, 2004) movie

My little village movie
Czech comedy with a lot of seriousness to it from the 80s. The film was directed by a man called Jiri Menzel, and involves a number of different people in a small Czech village. It really has no real point to it, only everyday events are depicted, and that …
The Sentinel movie
When the actor, Michael Douglas chooses to do a thriller, 99.9% it is a guarantee that is going to be a good one. “The Sentinel” confirms this theory. Douglas involvement in this project is simply great. His on screen sparks with Kiefer Sutherland are a guarantee to make you …
Sixteen Candles (1984 Film)
Who cannot love a young Molly Ringwald as a fashion forward teenager who is trying to survive high school? I know that I can’t, and that is why it’s hard to not absolutely love the 1984 film “Sixteen Candles”. Not only is this movie funny, but it really does …
