Scooby Doo and the Samurai Sword
I got home from work last night and my daughter had just started watching the movie Scooby Doo and the Samurai Sword. Since I had not seen that movie yet, I figured I would take the time to watch it with her (while feeding our other daughter).
It was an …
The movie Toy Story 2
I was relatively young when the original Toy Story came out. However I was old enough to know that I loved it. Needless to say that when Toy Story 2 came out a few years later I was more than excited.
The movie did not let me down either. I …
Kungfu Panda
This is a terrible movie; I can’t stop laughing myself no matter how much I’ve watched this movie. The animation was too smooth and perfect that it’s really well-detailed for both the fun and the story plot. The sequences were flowing just right that I really like every motion. …
Half Nelson A Movie
A few nights ago my husband and I settled in to watch Half Nelson. I had never seen it or heard of it before so I figured that it was probably not that good of a movie. However my husband really wanted to watch it so I decided to …
Knight and Day Movie (2010)
As I saw the trailer for this movie a few weeks ago, I knew I had to watch it, seeing Tom Cruise in action again, plus with funny Cameron Diaz playing as his lady love in the movie. When the movie finally hit the screen, a lot of people …

A story about love and the breaking down of those strong emotional barriers that people have around them, this movie is about a young woman who gets involved with a reclusive millionaire in Brazil, there, she is introduced to many levels of psychological and sexual tests at the hands …
Lo Movie
Looking through my Netflix for something to watch on a rainy Saturday night, I came across a movie that seemed somewhat strange but also interesting and quirky. It was titled Lo, probably a film that most people have never heard of, it is a story of a young man …
Rec 2 Movie
This movie was better than the first one. There were downsides to it however. For instance, the camera shots were for the most part unoriginal. Could you do better than having a bloodied zombie-faced possessed person grab the camera and make faces? The blocking was …
9 to 5 by Dolly Pardon
9 to 5 is the first song that I personally remember hearing Dolly Pardon perform on TV. I saw the movie a few years latter when it came out and just about died laughing. It has a way of demonstrating the male stereo type of so many bosses. It …
Prince Caspian
I think that the movie Prince Caspian is unduly overlooked. I am a huge fan of Narnia, so maybe I’m biased, but I do believe that this movie deserves far more recognition and rave. Ever since the first Narnia movie was released, I looked forward to Prince Caspian; the …
The Bells of St. Mary’s
The Bells of St. Mary’s is the sequel to Going My Way and stars Bing Crosby as Father O’Malley out to save another part of the Church. This time, it’s not a parish that needs him, but a school which is in crisis. His skeptical foe this …
Disney’s The Sorcerer’s Apprentice (2010 movie)
I wanted to watch “Disney’s The Sorcerer’s Apprentice” ever since it was released because of how exciting it looked when it was advertising to be released in theatres.
The movie was about the thousand year quest of a master sorcerer named Balthazar, to find a young man who will …

Tom and Jerry
Tom and Jerry is one of the most popular cartoons made by Warner Brothers. I doubt if anyone has not heard or never even watched this series. This is a total fun ride for half an hour. IT has some small 5-10 minutes fast paced cartoon stories, that are …
The Thief of Bagdad movie
One of Michael Powell’s earliest successes which a co-directed with a number of different people, but it was before the famous co-operation with Emeric Pressburger. The story is about a young beggar in Bagdad who finds a magic lamp which enables him to make three wishes. This story is …
Pandora’s Clock
The reason I tuned into Pandora’s Clock, a 1996 TV movie, was because it starred Richard Dean Anderson, who is one of my favorite performers. I’ll start with the girlish stuff and get that out of the way. In a uniform, Anderson is yummy. He just …
Young Sherlock Holmes movie
A surprisingly interesting film about the genius detective. Since the days of Basil Rathbone there have been few exceptions from the rule of failed Sherlock Holmes films, but this is one of those, much because it doesn’t follow a story written by Conan Doyle in the first place. Instead …
Fast Food Nation
Everyone already knows that fast food is bad for you. When it comes to movies, Supersize Me covered that quite thoroughly. But what if that hamburger wasn’t just packed with calories, but also possibly contained something far worse? That’s the premise, on the surface at least, of Fast Food …
Vampire Knight: Guilty 1 anime
Vampire Knight: Guilty is the second season of the anime based on the manga, Vampire Knight, by Matsuri Hino which is my favorite vampire anime, mainly because it is a shoujo, but still serious at the same time. The image on this DVD cover is of Ichiru and …
Battlefield Earth movie
A film that is supposed to be based on a classic science fiction novel by L. Ron Hubbard, however the story is changed that much it’s fair to question the filmmaker’s intentions. John Travolta appears in his perhaps not proudest moment ever, as the leader of an alien species …
Star Trek (2009)
With a venerable liking for most things I’ve seen almost all of the movies and some shows, I must say that JJ did a nice work with this film. The director JJ Abrams has done a brilliant job in resurrecting an ailing franchise to the glee of millions of …

Drag Me to Hell
For a catchy title, I don’t really find this movie that scary at all. My boyfriend loves it though. Drag Me to Hell has its fair share of horror but I don’t think I enjoy the movie very much. The curse plot looks good in the beginning …
Movie Catch me if you can
Everything seemed incredible.Yet,the movie is said to be a true life story.Leonardo De caprio was the perfect actor for the role displaying so much skills and versatility that I aws almost desiring to be just like him.
Beginning life just with the fake checks given to him by his father,his …
Tesla - Comin’ Atcha Live! 2008 DVD
I recently bought The Comin’ Atcha Live 2008 concert Dvd live in Minnesota by The Hard Rock band Tesla and it is one of the best Live DVD’s. Although the band Tesla is underrated and it shows with this smaller club venue, but at least they sold it out …
Urban Justice
I personally thought the star of Steven Seagal was fading in the early to mid nineties. It seems as if someone keeps letting him make movies. Not that I mind him making more movies. But like this newest Seagal flick, Urban Justice proves, if you’ve seen one, you’ve seen …
Taxi No. 9211 (movie) Feb, 2006
This one is a great movie. I just loved this movie. It released on 24th of February, 2006. This film is directed by Milan Luthria who has done a brilliant job. This movie is pretty different from the typical Bollywood films. The protagonist of the film is played by …
Sex and the City (HBO series)
What show can you think of that has completely influenced the entire population of single women across the world? Sex and the City of course. The first wonderful thing about this show is that it’s set in one of the most intriguing, most colorful cities of all …
Perfect Blue (Psychological thriller-horror Anime)
I can’t believe it, the best psychological thriller-horror film I watched this year actually comes from an anime. I have never thought anime could be this good and thrilling, but Perfect Blue just proved me wrong.
Perfect Blue is a 1997 Japanese psychological thriller-horror anime film directed by Satoshi Kon and …
Hitler : The rise of the evil
As the name says this movie is about Hitler and world was second. Hitler role has been played by Ben kingsly who has done a fantastic job. The movie is very well made in covers the dark period of second world war very effectively It also shows how Hitler …

What about Bob?
I really liked the movie What about Bob?. I think Bill Murray was very funny as the character of Bob. Bob is a guy who has mental problems and has to go see a shrink. He also is very paranoid and scared of everything. I think it’s very funny when …
The movie Monsters Inc.
I think that like most people as a young child I was afraid of monsters. I remember lying in bad feeling so afraid because I thought that monsters were going to pop out of my closet and eat me.
It was because of those memories that when Monsters Inc …
The Garden (NR, 2006) movie
This movie has the feel of a low-budget thriller. And at first I was reluctant to sit through an entire viewing. But since someone actually referred the movie to me, I gave it a chance. I am glad that I did. While I found …
Transporter
Up until I saw this film I had not seen any of Jason Statham’s work. Like Steven Seagal and Jean Claude Van Damme before him, he has made a movie career solely out of the fact that he knows kung fu.
The writers behind this film weren’t much …
Due South: Diefenbaker’s Day Off
Diefenbaker’s Day Off is the next regular episode of the first season of Due South, and it’s pretty funny. Canadian Mountie Benton Fraser tells his wolf, Diefenbaker, that he needs a license, but he’s having trouble getting one. It could be because Dief, as he’s commonly called, …
The Village movie
M. Night Shyamalan first became famous after the release of the movie he directed entitled The Sixth Sense. After that, he directed a number of less successful movies. The Village is a movie of his that did not get very good reviews when it came out. …
Love Story movie
“Love means never having to say you’re sorry.”
That’s one of the most famous movie quotes ever, and it’s from this movie that captured the country’s attention upon its release. Starring Ryan O’Neal and Ali McGraw, Love Story is a powerfully emotional drama about two lovers from different backgrounds …
Scary Movie
My wife and I will be celebrating our 6th wedding anniversary this weekend. And, I though it would be only fitting that I took a few minutes to talk about the first movie we ever watched together; Scary Movie.
I know, for a date movie, this might actually be one …
Cars - Entertainment for the whole family.
This isn’t just a movie for the boys of the house. I found myself routing for Rookie Lightning McCool, the adorable red car in this new Disney movie. He goes through some tough times and true to Disney format learns valuable lessons. After watching it for …
The perfect Sunday movie
Last Sunday lifetime movie network had a “the perfect sunday” event going on where they showed movies with the word “perfect” in them. Some of the movies that they played were perfect marriage, perfect neighbor, the perfect nanny, the perfect assistant. I watched some of the movies, I couldn’t …
Hard Candy movie
There are few movies which can frazzle me. I typically can shrug off any gore or suspense thrown my way. I’m not easily affected. However, every so often, a movie comes along that picks me up, slaps me in the face, twirls me around and then …
The Cable Guy movie
This was a film that was a big disappointment for many when it came out, but has been revalued among certain people and is considered as the funniest film of the whole 1990s by some of my friends. The story is that of a cable guy played by Jim …
Birdemic Shock and Terror, Blu-ray Romantic Horror film
Birdemic: Shock and Terror had to have been made for cult status purposes. I mean come on why would anyone made a movie with birds that spit acid and shoot lasers—¦or I think they are lasers. The movie has crappy violence, early 90s PC game dialogue, and children who …
Jeepers Creepers
I think Jeepers Creepers sucked. This movie was so cheesy and horrible. I mean I was laughing the whole time. The whole concept of the story was not even scary. I mean the idea for the monster comes from an old song. The song goes “jeeepers creepers where’d you get …
Bubble Boy (2001 comedy movie)
The 2001 movie “Bubble Boy” might not have gotten a very good rating in a number of places, but it’s one of those movies that I’ve found I can watch multiple times and never get bored of. It might be silly all around, but I still think that it’s funny …
Prince of Persia (2010)
I just saw this movie on its opening night, and it entertained me, but didn’t thrill me.
While I liked Prince of Persia: Sands of Time for most of its action and storyline, I wonder if something wasn’t missing here. There was a lot of good acting, and certainly …
Virgin Snow : Korean-Japanese Movie
I just finished the Virgin Snow (Hatsuyuki no koi) Movie by Lee Junki, a Korean actor and Aoi Miyazaki , a Japanese Actress. This movie was made possible by the joint venture of the Korean and Japanese Film makers. Finding this was not so hard, it was available at …
The Fountain, Darren Aronofsky Movie
What was the essence of ‘The Fountain’, the film work of Darren Aronofsky (requiem for a Dream) is this? Search will be eternal life or melodrama about true love? I think, after witnessing film, is a combination of both and is not too bad.
Stories run parallel between Tomas (Hugh …
