The Shepard Border Patrol
I admit that I haven’t watched a lot of Jean Claude Van Damme’s movies. If I have to see a bunch of men jumping, kicking and screaming, I choose to see it through a comic aspect, so I go for a Jackie Chen movie. I broke my rule for …
Rush Hour 3 (2007)
Coming back for a third time, Rush Hour 3, in my opinion, has done a lot better than the second. With a great addition of Israeli actor Yvan Attal, who plays George, this movie is a great finish to top off a funny trilogy.
Jackie Chan is back and better …
Movie Only You
Only You starring Marisa Tomei and Robert Downey Jr., is a funny, charming and shamelessly romantic movie. It does not pretend to be anything other than it is, it is a movie for people who love romantic comedies, and who love the concept of romance, and believe that it …
The Prestige movie

The Notebook movie
The Notebook movie is real horrible and I never could quite get why people liked it so much. The book was ok but the movie was horrid. First off the actress they got to play the main role was awesome and she played the character well but the main …
Yes Man Movie

Confessions of a Shopaholic
I usually like a movie I could somehow relate into. However, “Confessions of a Shopaholic” is one of those movies that I liked but could not really much relate to myself. It is about a woman who has a passion for shopping, which I don’t.
Being into shopping entails …

Journey to the Center of the Earth 3D
Journey to the Center of the Earth was fantastic. This movie is 3D. You are given 3D glasses upon purchasing your ticket. As for the movie, it was quite good. The 3D effects are used well. I believe that they could’ve been used even more than they were, but …

Arrival (2016 Sci-fi Drama Film)
The way this film is marketed is truly off-putting, who else wants to watch another alien-invasion movie? I find it truly distracting that “language” is one of the main themes here but the distributor actually did not know how to communicate/market this film to the general audience. Granted, science fiction …
Stuck in the Suburbs
When the movie Stuck in the Suburbs came on television last night, my first thought was “Great, another teenaged chick flick.” But, after watching it simply because there was nothing better on, I discovered it was actually a pretty good movie.

Stone 2010 movie

In my opinion Clash of the titans is not all it is hyped up to be by all the reviews, it didn’t seem as enticing as most action/adventure movies seem to be. It is about mythology so you would expect there to be a lot of fighting, also it …

“Salt” 2010 action film by Phillip Noyce

Oliver Twist,1948 movie
David Lean’s version of Oliver Twist, filmed in 1948, is perhaps one of the best adaptations of the beloved Dickens novel. Dark and depressing, the movie well captures the misery of a poor orphaned child, raised by people who don’t care for him, starved and abused. The casting and …
