Transformers: Dark of the Moon (3D)
I loved Transformers: Dark of the Moon! I thought it should be pretty cool in 3D. I was right! It impressed me right away, literally within the first minute or two. Then it kept getting better throughout the movie.
I wasn’t sure how I would like Rosie Huntington-Whiteley for …
The Changling
When I rented the movie “The Changeling”, I did so because it was directed by Clint Eastwood, and I really enjoy the movies he directs. The subject matter, a mother whose young son disappears, is gut-wrenching, so I didn’t expect a light or enjoyable experience. It was based on …
Movie Cars
Cars is one of the best animation film that I really really love so much. I love the animation and the 3D effects of the film. I am sure that all of it were skilfully done just to make it more pleasing to the eyes. Not only did I …

STAY ALIVE MOVIE
Video games are a big industry in the 21st century, so of course i movie would come out that has everything to do with them. Stay alive is pretty much like Tron except without the ligh bikes, the cool story and the ability to make you stay awake long …
Tammy and the Millionaire
Interestingly, after the TV series failed with just one season, Tammy and the Millionaire was released in 1967 with pretty much the same cast as the TV series. Debbie Watson, Denver Pyle, and Frank McGrath are all back, as are the actors who portrayed the Brents and the …
Feature Film “The Reaping”
I first saw this film when it came on tv. The subject seemed interesting and although I am not a Hillary Swank fan in any way I decided to give it a try because the plot sounded really different. Hillary plays a woman who was once a …
The House Bunny
The House Bunny is a chick flick or a date movie and you would either love or hate it. There are lots of date movies nowadays and it’s quite hard to choose the best of the best. But it so happens that when The House Bunny was released …

One of my favorite actors, Zach Braff (from the movie Garden State, and the popular tv show Scrubs), stars in a movie from 2006 called The Last Kiss. The movie is rate R for sexuality, nudity, and language. It’s only 103 minutes, so the movie isn’t stretched out. I …

Step Up movie
Step Up: yes please do. Step up the acting, step up the writing, step up the score. Above all, step up the dancing. There was absolutely nothing redeeming about this movie, and I like cheesy dance movies. The lighting was incredibly unflattering throughout the entire running, the acting was …
The Incredibles movie
I am reviewing the Walt Disney movie, The Incredibles. This is one of Disney’s newest films. So there are these super heroes. They save the world day after day. They are called Incredibles. They are a sub species of their own, kind of like the X Men. …
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 Lonely Guy Movie
Another addition to my collection of silly movies. Even Steve Martin can’t save it, and that tells you something. But, even such a good comedy actor as him cannot work wonders when the script truly sucks.
The story is about “lonely guys” - single men who for some reason cannot …
Dead Silence (2007)
If you’re in the mood for some mindless scares, the recently released “Dead Silence” might be a good choice for you. I, however, find it too gory and frightening, and having no deeper message than “Boo!!” is, for me, a big turn-off.
The story is about a dead ventriloquist (performer …

A Map of the World (R, 1999) movie

I love sci fi or horror movies. Supernatural is one of those movies. I was scared to watch them alone at first, then I found out that they don’t tell about ghosts or anything scary like that. They tell stories about demons and devils. Ghosts …
Reptilicus movie
A most bizarre danish science fiction b-movie from the 1960s. A terrible monster seems to appear out of nowhere and starts terrorising people. The military sees no way of getting rid of the creature and is getting more and more desperate.
This could indeed be the very definition of a …
Mamma Mia! movie
From 2008, the movie Mamma Mia! garnered a lot of buzz when it was released. I didn’t see it myself until just recently, however. Part of me wonders if the movie suffers from my ‘too much hype’ syndrome. Back when American Graffitti came out, I didn’t …

Thir13een Ghosts (2001)

Barracuda by Philippe Haim
French cinema has always been boring to me. However, I cannot say so for Barracuda. This French thriller is absolutely disturbing and I do not recommend it for sensitive souls. The beginning is calm but then it is followed by a merciless duel between the two main characters.
Mr Clement …
