The Answer Man - Movie on DVD
Some movies I enjoy because they are well made. They either have superior production values, such as “The Pirates of the Caribbean” series, or the plots are exciting, or the actors are engaging. Then there are some movies that I elevate to a special class: those that have something …
“Monsters” movie
Taking up for watching “Monster” I was hoping that it will be explosive combination of “The way” and “District 9″. So I was hoping for poetic road movie, as confirmed in the post-apocalyptic mood, which would become the matrix for an ambitious aesthetic, making a problems, science fiction story. …
My Name is Bruce movie
When my wife and I sat down to watch the movie My Name is Bruce Saturday afternoon, I wasn’t really expecting much of it. I figured a film about Bruce Campbell playing himself and fighting real monsters would end up being a bit too corny and farfetched for me.
But, …

The Father of the Bride movie

Seven Pounds movie
Seven Pounds is about a man who is about to commit suicide and he falls in love. Will Smith is the main character of this movie. He does an amazing job in my opinion. In the beginning of the movie it is confusing but interesting, in the middle of …
Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs
Ice Age may be an animation, but even adults dig it. The cute graphic, funny plot, witty conversations do not just attract kids but their parents, older brothers and sisters as well.
Yes, the story may be silly, but really, who needs brains when watching animation? We all know …
The Cutting Edge Movie
Among the Cutting Edge movies that were made (there were three) this is what I like best. I have probably seen it five times already. I enjoy watching this because I like figure skating and The Cutting Edge has plenty of scenes showcasing some fancy maneuvers. It is funny …

Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein (1994)

“The Toolbox Murders” (1978 Film)

Across the Universe (2007 film)
As a Beatles fan, I put off seeing “Across the Universe” for a while-even when others raved about it-because it didn’t seem like any movie could really do justice to the music-and I’m including the movies the Beatles themselves actually made, with the possible exception of “Magical Mystery Tour,” …
I Come In Peace (1990)
A serial killing intergalactic murderer comes to earth to do what he does best; it would seem that what we produce here on earth has interstellar appeal so that even aliens come to claim their stake in the enterprise. Cocaine is the topic of this movie and the alien …
Orgazmo
I rented Orgazmo on the recommendation of a friend and thought it was going to turn out to be a stupid movie. I was right, it was stupid. However, it was also one of the funniest films I’ve ever seen.
The movie, about a Mormon, Joe Young, who is …
Titanic
The movie Titanic when it came out was a force to be reckoned with. I was about fifteen and all the girls at my school were going nuts over it. They even went to see it over eight times.
I myself was never that devoted but when I …
Looney Toons: Back in Action- the movie
I sometimes enjoy watching children’s movies, especially when they have some wittiness and humor aimed at adults.

“Easy A” (2010 Film)
The 2010 comedy, “Easy A” was a teenage centered comedy that reflected some of the problems seen in the “Scarlet Letter”. While some of the problems faced by the chatacters in this film are very exagerated, the principle and message behind them are none the less impacting.

Perry Mason: The Case of the Skin-Deep Scandal movie

It begins with a powerful, manipulative woman played by Morgan …
The Princess Bride
To blave, that’s what this story is about. And if you find that inconceivable, try to stomach the kissing scenes and see where that gets you.
