30 Days of Night
As far as vampire flicks go, the movie 30 Days of Night has a lot of potential. However, it falls a bit short.

The Book of Eli
As the movie started, my roommates joked that this was “Fallout: The Movie”. Given that it takes place in a post-apocalyptic world where the country is a vast wasteland, comparisons are inevitable, but some of the set pieces were also very reminiscent of the game. Given that …
Enemy Mine (1985)
I love this movie not only because the actors are great but also the theme is fascinating. Aliens.
This movie though features only one type of fictional aliens, the reptilian like creatures that somehow resembles humans but only wearing a thick scaly skin and a tail of a dinosaur …

Bruno
If you liked Sacha Baron Cohen’s most famous movie, Borat, you will find Bruno funny. Yes, this latest controversial and extremely politically incorrect comedy is over-the-top in the poor taste department. I do admit to finding the reactions of the people he encounters to be hilarious, and in …
The Shawshank Redemption

Dr. Seuss on the Loose
We were watching Dr. Seuss movies and I got to see one I didn’t even know existed; Dr. Seuss on the Loose. It was a film that ended up being better than I thought it would.
