The Host, movie
Whoever thought having the protagonist of a movie spend most of her time talking inside her own head for the better part of 2 hours and get away with it, was painstakingly wrong.
In The Host, another Stephenie Meyer adaptation for the big screen, we start out with Saoirse Ronan …

A Christmas Story (movie)
What strikes me as the main appeal of a Christmas story isn’t that it is a Christmas movie. It’s a story of youth, family and friends, with extra helpings of nostalgia (try eating that, Randy!).
The 40’s is captured brilliantly-the products surround the parkers, Higbee’s department store, the time of …

Final Destination 5 (movie)
Final Destination 5 is supposed to be the final installment of the series, and hopefully for movie goers such as me, the studio actually means it. This film was probably the second worst movie of the franchise with its predictable plot and obvious scene transitions in the movie.
The movie …
Erin Brockovich
Ok, I never would have thought that a movie about a slutty, foul mouthed unattractive mother of a litter of kids would have won an Oscar for anyone. Thank you academy for proving me wrong.

Cheeni Kum, movie
Finally somebody had the sense to pair two performers we’ve been dying to see together: Amitabh and Tabu.
And debutant director R Balki proves he’s just the man for the job as he marvelously brews the perfect romantic comedy around an acerbic chef and a classy dame.
As …

Tim Burton is a genius. I need to state my opinion on that. I have loved most of his movies, and his collaboration with Johnny Depp, is one of my favorite actor/director combinations. I also need to state that I have a deep affection for Lewis Carroll and the …

Bruce Almighty (2003)

Watchmen: The complete motion comic

In this movie, The Green …
