I’m not sure if this movie originally came from the Lifetime Movie Network, but that is where I watched it the first time, and am watching it now again. I thought it was pretty great for a low budget movie too, and one that is on Lifetime, since I’m …

I picked up The Curse of King Tut’s Tomb because it was cheap ($6.44) and because it looked somewhat interesting, if a bit derivative. Derivative is right, this two-part mini-series steals liberally from both the Indiana Jones franchise as well as the Mummy series.
Does the Curse of King …

I was given the opportunity to watch Carrie one evening on Netflix. After hearing so many different things about the movie, I just had to see it for myself. I have to say that in the beginning when first hearing about it, I was skeptical, because there are so …

I adore Angel. My fiance got me into all the magical, vampire shows, such as Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Angel and Charmed, and Smallville. This review is about Angel Season 1. I love this season because it sort of picks up where Buffy left off. I love how there …

It is hard to believe that A New Hope is the first Star Wars film ever, although when it comes to chronological sequencing, it is actually the middle of the whole six-film lineup. I can still remember when this film was first shown, I think everyone in the …

I really didn’t know what to expect when I went to the theatre to watch The Men Who Stare at Goats, but from what I had read and seen, I was intrigued enough to actually not wait to see it on DVD, which is unusual for me. Plus, I …

I had heard about this movie coming out in movies. But I deliberately skipped over it. I thought to myself: How in the world can a movie about a parking deck be scary? How is this going to go over, I asked myself. …

Imagine… Back before engines or high speed communication, where battle is done with metal blades and crude and cruel superstitions serve as the voice of both law and medical science, you give a decade of your life traveling far from home to fight the enemies of your religion. After so …

Robots is a nice kids’ movie. There isn’t really a better or more accurate adjective. The animation is great and smooth, perhaps better than previous movies (although in the intervening 5 years since 2005, a lot has been done in computer animation). The characters and voices are good and …

When I first saw Couples Retreat I wasn’t quite sure what to expect. The movie has gotten some pretty bad reviews and has even been in the papers for some racist actions.
Firstly I must say that the producers did a terrible thing when they edited out the …

I was sitting tight for this film ever since I saw its trailer. I was amped up for it because it is a true story and also because of its excellent star cast. In this way, when it was released I promptly hurried to the theater without worrying about its …

Remake of a popular TV series, this movie lacked the quality to keep me interested for even a short while. Where was the direction? It sure as hell didn’t leave me wanting more, I didn’t even want a little. This is yet another dumb movie that will fade away …

Even though it was made in the 1960s, there really aren’t many movies that compare in terms of actual horror to the classic film Night of the Living Dead.
I was watching it this morning for about the 10th time and have to say it is one of the most …

I just went to see the film “A Scanner Darkly” and I thought it was brilliant. The story is a cautionary tale about drug addiction. As such, it deals with a lot of material not appropriate for children, but could also be considered an important film for youth and …

Truman with Jim Carrey and Ed Harris.
This was a different kind of movie that had me expecting the slapstick humor of which Jim Carrey built his career, but I was sadly disappointed.
There are few effective comedic actors in the industry and Carrey is one of them. …

I saw the movie Avatar three times– twice in the theater in 3-D, and once at home in 2-D as a rental. I’d been looking forward to seeing it months before it ever came out. The big question always being: would it live up to all the hype? I …

It is odd that I read the synopsis of a movie, get interested in it and then watch it, only to be disappointed in the end. The synopsis for the movie on Netflix calls it a “mind warping action thriller”. Then on top of that very attractive statement it …
