Star Trek 2009 movie
Here’s the deal. I am a devout lover of the original Star Trek TV series. I loved the movies that followed. Then I enjoyed most of the series spin offs that followed; not all, but most. Then in 2009, along came this new Star Trek, …
The Vanished Murderer (Suspense Crime Action Thriller)
I guess I am on a marathon of Jiang Yiyan’s movies. I’ve previously mentioned why I became a fan of her and I won’t repeat myself here again.
A thing I realized about her movies is that, she usually has very interesting roles but the movie itself is always lacking somehow. …
Toy Story 3 in 3D
Toy Story in 3D
Having thoroughly enjoyed Toy Story 1 & 2, I was ecstatic to hear the third chapter was out in theatres. We hurried to our local theatre, paid our $12.50 USD ($3.50 extra for 3D movies) and went directly to our favorite seats, 10th row back, …

Blitz (crime drama movie)
I’m truly at a loss as to why I keep torturing myself and watching movies with Jason Statham in it; since I almost always know what to expect. However, for some reason I decided to watch this one yet again, and once again I was disappointed. The ratings for it, …
A Storm in Summer,2000 movie
This movie is a real gem. Peter Falk plays Abel Shaddick, an angry old man who seems to hate everyone and everything. However, Falk manages to make his character interesting rather than totally unlikable: we want to know the reason of his anger, and as we suspect that the …
Lucky Number Slevin (2006)
Lucky Number Slevin is a movie that most of yall have probably not heard of but it one of my favorite little unknowns. It is a great crime thriller with a power packed cast which includes Morgan Freeman, Ben Kingsley, Josh Hartnett, Lucy Lui and Bruce Willis. With all …

Netflix
Netflix is a company that lets it’s users rent as many movies as they want through the mail with no late fees. I have been using Netflix for a few months now and the best thing about this company is that there are absolutely never any late fees. Another …
Vampire in Brooklyn,1995 movie
I guess the problem with this movie is that it cannot decide what it is: a horror or comedy. It is not scary enough to for the former and not funny enough for the latter. Eddie Murphy is playing the main character (and Eddie is not exactly vampire material, …
Movie “Dreamcatcher” (2003)
I am so in love with netflix and the ability to watch movies and tv instantly. Since I don’t have to wait for a movie to come in the mail I am much more willing to try out a movie I have never heard of before. This …
The Parent Trap (original)
The 1961 movie, The Parent Trap, is one of my very favorite motion pictures. I own the DVD and watch it frequently. It’s family, and it’s fun.

Death of a Ghost Hunter: movie
Death of a Goes Hunter is a low-budget horror movie. Like most low-budget horror movies, it suffers from some flaws. The acting is not that good, the camera work is sloppy, and the whole thing has an unprofessional feel. However, despite these flaws, I really enjoyed …

The Boy in the Striped Pajamas (2008 Movie)
Though I’m not usually one for war-based dramas, this movie grabbed hold of my heart and broke it in two with one of the saddest endings I’ve seen in a long time. The story is simple; A young boy, Bruno, is forced to move from his peaceful home full …
Big Daddy
“Big Daddy” is one of the best comic movies for Adam Sandler. One cannot help put sympathise with him while he interprets the role of a guy who has to take care of a kid, Julian that ends up on his doorstep. He has got no idea how he …
Maleficent (2014 Film)
Maleficent is another one of the Disney movies that made its appearance earlier in the year. Not animation, but a live action film that promised to tell a different story than what the Disney fans are used to. I will happily admit that I am a Disney fan that …

Step Up 2 Movie
I didn’t like this movie as much as I liked the first one. This is the sequel to Step Up and I think one of the main reasons I liked that movie was because of Channing Tatum. In this sequel, Channing Tatum is only in the movie for like …

10 (movie)
The movie 10 catapulted Bo Derek into a household name. Bo is steamy hot in this film, although the acting leaves much to be desired. I like 10 because it’s cool to see an icon when she was young and very, very beautiful. Bo Derek can’t act worth a …
A Royal Affair (2012 Film)
As a fan of Madds Mikkelsen, I was eager to watch the film, A Royal affair. I’m not so big on history movies, but I figured I would give this particular movie a chance. It’s described to be a romance drama film, which usually makes for a good watch. …
The Curious Case of Benjamin Button
Life isn’t measured in minutes, but in moments…a tag line well portrayed in the character of Benjamin Button. The general plot concerns a man who ages backwards, thus it goes something like: “I was born under unusual circumstances.” The Curious Case of Benjamin Button is adapted …
Iron Man (2008)
Another interesting movie I saw this week. But if you wanted a superhero movie like Superman you will clearly not find it in Iron Man, because it’s the antithesis of the ordinary loser who becomes a superhero as a consequence of a truly extraordinary event(I prefer those if you …
My Mom’s New Boyfriend (movie)
I am not usually a fan of the romance comedy genre of film, but when I heard about the plot of this film somewhere a few years ago, I decided that I wanted to watch it. However, I was a little skeptical about how enjoyable I would find it …
Uptown Girls
One of the most amazing actresses of this generation is Dakota Fanning. She’s one of my favorites and I try to watch every movie where she’s in. A couple days backs, I watched Upton Girls again where Fanning plays an uptight spoiled rich little girl whose mom doesn’t have …
Movie The Breakfast Club
After a year from doing the movie “Sixteen Candles”, the director John Hughes returned back with another teen movie “The Breakfast Club”. In my opinion, “The Breakfast Club” is by far much better teen story than “Sixteen Candles”. Interesting is that the actress, Molly Rigwald and Anthony Michael Hall …
Let Me In (movie)
“Let Me In” is another one of the movies that I watched recently. I remember seeing it advertising several times before my cable television went, but for some reason, I wasn’t very interested in seeing it. However, it was only after I read about it on someone’s blog where …
