Movie Blond Ambition
To put everything in a short sentence, “Blond Ambition” is a very cheap copy of Reese Whiterspoon success movie “Legally Blond”. It is to no surprise to me that it went straight to DVD release.
The interesting fact about both movies that is that Luke Wilson stars in both of …

House of Wax
House of Wax is a horror movie that most people hated right away, but I liked it. I wouldn’t say that I loved the movie, but I didn’t think it was nearly as bad as everyone said. I’ve never seen the original movie and all I know of it …
Clash of the Titans (1981 movie)
Here is a movie that I think directors will have a wonderul time with the remake, that’s if they have what it takes to re-invent the characters and make them seem real enough for the viewing public. Based in mythical times with mythical creatures such as the gigantic titans, …
The Curios Case Of Benjamin Button
When I went to see this movie I was excited, it looked interesting and I thought it would be funny, something happy for the long and often depressing holidays. The movie kept me interested, but just barely, I should have just stopped watching it right away, but I kept …

The Fugitive thriller

Stargate
Since the dawn of movie making, there have always been a few actors that take weird, off the wall, ecentric roles instead of traditional leading men or leading lady roles. Such is true with current Boston Legal actor, James Spader. He appeared in a great 1994 film called Stargate …
Movie Only You
Only You starring Marisa Tomei and Robert Downey Jr., is a funny, charming and shamelessly romantic movie. It does not pretend to be anything other than it is, it is a movie for people who love romantic comedies, and who love the concept of romance, and believe that it …
Movie: Fingerprints
When my wife picked out the movie Fingerprints off our Netflix instant watch queue last night, I honestly wasn’t expecting a whole lot from the movie. After all, most of the so-called horror films out there are nothing more than soft-core porn in disguise or think extra blood and …
Tesla - Comin’ Atcha Live! 2008 DVD

“Jumper” (2008 film)
The 2008 film “Jumper” starring Rachel Bilson and Hayden Christenson, looked to be a great action movie that would catch the viewers attention. The actors in the film are known for many other roles in which they really shined, and I had anticipated that the same would be said …

X-Men 3: The Last Stand [movie]

Netflix Online Mail-Order Movie Rental Service
