I don’t know what it is lately, but it seems, whenever I rent a “comedy” it turns out to be a good movie but it is horribly mis-classified.

Coraline, the animation movie, is pretty scary. I don’t know if most kids would love to watch this. However, I find this to be like a dark animation or some sort and don’t mind watching.
Kids nowadays are more braver, so I think they can take this. With voice-over …

Cool World, hmmm, what is ther that can be said about this movie that is any way, shape or form a good thing? This movie came to us as viewers with such high expectations and with a new thought of actually combining the human element with animation. I was …

The 1985 film “The Goonies” is one that I have now referred to as an “addiction film”. What I mean by that term is simply this, that the film (for reasons unknown) is one that I cannot help but fall in love with. From the cast of misfits who …
