I’ve been disappointed by most of the Simpsons holiday specials lately. But, last night’s Christmas special was pretty decent.
The Simpsons took in a character I’ve always found fascinating, Gill, the sales guy who can’t seem to catch a break. And, I learned a lot about him, including just how …

One of the most disappointing movies of the year, Fast and Furious 4 was a flat, uninteresting film. I was dismayed that even the actors came out flat here. It came off like a bad “made for TV” low budget movie. There are no twists or events …

I don’t ever recall seeing an Audrey Hepburn movie in TCM —“ the channel for classic films. Since the movies shown in the channel are largely MGM titles, my theory tells me Audrey Hepburn had simply not played any motion picture produced by this grand movie empire. …

I watched this movie just today with my mom. I was told by my friends it was nice and all that, but when I watched it, I wasn’t sure how to feel. The beginning was very interesting. I loved the way they made this movie just …

There was too much gossip and too much type before this movie was even screened and I didn’t really like these type of movies as I don’t like all those Qi stuff, but I still watched this as I would always give something the benefit of the doubt and …

Borderland is a bad movie, plain and simple. I can usually find some redeeming qualities in a movie, but this isn’t one of them. I think the real problem is that it was released as one of the films in the After Dark Horror Fest, but it isn’t a …

This movie came out a while ago but I am reviewing it because I would like to view Spanish films from Spain to improve my understanding of the language.

“Chicago” is a 2002 film that won a ton of awards, including the Academy Award for Best Picture of the Year. It is a musical featuring Richard Gere, Renee Zellweger and Catherine Zeta-Jones, and it is really top notch. The music, singing, and acting are great.
Pros: …

There was something missing with this film. I know that it followed lots of formulas about somet kind of big monster lurking in the exotic wilderness of a foreign land. As usual, there is the requisite bunch of diverse “scientists/explorers/writers” (pick one) with the ONE beautiful …

A Few Good Men is a very good movie and a very powerful film. I think this is one of the best military movies ever made. Even though it did not have many if any gun battles or fights it truly kept you at the edge of your seat and …

I’m a fan of both Hugh Grant and Drew Barrymore, so I had some interest in seeing them together in Music and Lyrics. But, I didn’t know I’d enjoy the movie so much. Grant plays Alex, a has been pop star and Barrymore is Sophie, an aspiring …

Something about the thought of Will Smith and Martin Lawrence playing cops makes me want to laugh, and watching the 2003 movie Bad Boys 2 I do plenty of that. Whether it’s the two characters demonstrating their “tandem dance routine”, complaining about the pool in Lawrence’s character’s back yard, …

When I think back to the movies made in the 1990s, I can think of quite a few good ones. And, then I can think of ones made by Pauley Shore that weren’t so good but still somewhat entertaining.
Shore will never win any awards for his performance in the …

Daisies is a Czech film about two girls, best friend, and their everyday life. With the most lively images, this story is told in a most unconventional and experimental way. It’s not the common narrative you see in a Hollywood movie. No, Daisies is more fixed on the moods …

The first time I watched the “Just Friends” Dvd, I was nearly in tears. I love this movie. The actors play their roles so well, that the viewer is fully capable of feeling sympathy, embarrassment, anger, joy, ect for all of the characters. I can’t begin to recall the …

It is very difficult for a sequel to make the audience feel the same excitement as the first movie, and this sequel didn’t quite live up to that… However, it didn’t fail either. The second Transformers movie did a bad job, and a good job of giving us …

A very unusual french film almost completely without dialogue. This is all about how people act instead of what they say, and in that sense I have to say it is really impressive. The story is that of the crazy man Themroc, who acts like some madman with compassion …
