Star Wars III-Revenge of the Sith
This installation to the Star Wars Saga was not the worst nor the best. It failed to live up to the hype, it’s somewhat boring, plus the characters are semi-believable. Anakin’s character was poorly portrayed as he just randomly switched to the Darkside without a real reason. General Grievous …
The Men Who Stare at Goats, war comedy film
What the hell is up with George Clooney? The man is showing up in all of these goddamn films and half of them—¦wait no, most of them suck! The one movie that really got me pissed off at the movie theaters was The Men Who Stare at Goats. This …
The House Bunny movie
We were watching some of our movie channels last night and came across The House Bunny.
This is the second time I’ve watched this movie in about a year now and I have to say it is still a cute and clever concept.
Well, to be honest, the only thing clever …
Kubo and the Two Strings (2016 Animated Film)
Prior to watching Kubo and the Two Strings, I have watched a sort-of behind-the-scenes of the making of Kubo and the Two Strings in YouTube and I was seriously amazed at the amount of work to create this movie. For the information of everybody, this is a stop-motion animated film …
Netflix Online Mail-Order Movie Rental Service
This is a very disappointing and much over-hyped service for many reasons, but it has a few slightly redeeming factors.
When I first used my free trial membership, the movies arrived in a flash. Sometimes literally 1 day later. The turn around was nearly as fast, and I …
Gladiator
Alright, you probably now about the movie Gladiator by now. You’ve heard the stories about its gore and fighting. Well honestly, you have too see this movie. It is superb. Russell Crowe is at his finest moment of acting in this movie. HE plays the main character so well …

Lucky Number Sleven
The Kansas City Shuffle. I would love to go up to a random man, waiting in a bus station, only to talk about the Kansas City Shuffle, as Bruce Willis did at the beginning of this wonderful movie. I enjoy every single movie that I’ve seen with Bruce Willis, …
I am Legend
I saw this movie a few days before. I didn’t understood the story entirely it is some thing like New York city is been infected by virus and Will smith is trying to safe the city and the infected people. Smith is playing a Role of Doctor who is …
The Brothers Grimm film
“The Brothers Grimm” was released in 2005 and–at first glance–seemed to be an intelligent take on those stories that many of us grew up hearing about. I had learned, by way of living for several years with a roommate who majored in film, to be skeptical. If I had …
Movie: You’ve Got Mail
“You’ve Got Mail” has a couple of good taglines, “someone you pass on the street may already be the love of your life,” and “at odds in life… in love on-line.” Both of them fit in very well with the plot of the movie. One should remember that ten …
Hot Shots Part Deux
Hot Shots Part Deux
This show was made back in the 1990’s when these “stupid” comedies making fun of other shows were very popular. Yet today it still hold very funny. This is the second of the Hot Shots series. Going after the first this one doesn’t lose any charm …
The Usual Suspects movie

National Treasure: Book of Secrets
After three years from interpreting the role of Benjamin Franklin Gates, Nicholas Cage returns in this role with the sequel “National Treasure: Book of Secrets”. I believe that this role for Cage represents what Indiana Jones was and still is for Harrison Ford.

Star Trek: Generations (1994)
“Star Trek: Generations” is, in my opinion, the best of the Star Trek movies. I love the way it blended the cast of the original series with that of Star Trek: The Next Generation, even though they were 78 years apart in time. The way they did this was …

Bangkok Dangerous (2008), crime thriller film
How could a film that was made in 1999 already get a remake? The Pang Brothers felt it was a perfect opportunity to remake their hit 1999 debut film, Bangkok Dangerous, for its American release. Was this a smart move from the Pang Brothers or is the original film …

Cloak & Dagger
This film came out shortly after Henry Thomas came to worldwide attention in E.T. Well-cast in this role, this was the type of role best suited for Henry Thomas. He comes across as a kid with a great imagination and this movie blends both creatively.
It is the story of …
13 Going on 30
When I first rented 13 Going on 30, my first thought was, this is going to be a lot like the movie “Big.” I was glad I was wrong about it.
Jennifer Garner does a great job portraying a 13-year-old girl who wishes she was 30 back in the 80s …

Movie Review of the Machinist
When Christian Bzle emerged from Hollywood to don the cape of Batman, the critics were at first skeptical, then heaped paeans of praise for his acting. It wasn’t as popular as Superman– hell, it was a portrayal of a dark character set against a dark backdrop. Between …

I had the privilege of seeing Interstellar in theatres yesterday. I had high expectations for the film, given that Christopher Nolan is the director. I was not disappointed, I was actually amazed. Interstellar had a great story and the visuals were a treat. I’m glad I had the chance to …
The Stepford Wives Movie
When I was younger, I read Ira Levin’s “The Stepford Wives” in its original novel form. I found the entire concept of these too-perfect housewives and this picture-perfect town to be very creepy, in a really fun, dark sort of way. So I was rather excited when “The Stepford …

Thor (2011) Movie

The Day the Earth Stopped movie
