Beerfest movie
I think the movie Beerfest was apparently trying somehow to fit into that genre of comedy which focuses mostly on sex, drinking, goofy situations and having fun but still manages to be hilarious. However, I think in this respect Beerfest failed miserably. It was one of the worst excuses …

30 Days of Night: Dark Days
I really enjoyed watching the film 30 Days of Night and was excited when I heard that a sequel would soon be coming to the big screen. To what potential readers may find dismaying, I have to say that that 30 Days of Night: Dark Days was unimpressive.
I did …
Spiderman
Before Batman Begins hit the big screens, I thought that the original Spiderman was the best superhero movie of all time. This movie, much like Batman Begins, tells the story of how Spiderman became to be and I thought they handled all of the backstory VERY well. …
Village of the Damned
It had been ages since I saw the classic movie Village of the Damned. So, when it came on one of the movie channels over the weekend, I had to sit down and watch it again.

Bobby (NR, 2006) movie

Tokyo Drifter movie
This is a very innovative gangster movie from director Seijun Suzuki. Leading actor Tetsuya Watari does a brilliant job as the hero of the movie, dressed in a blue (!) suit, “Phoenix Tetsu”. Everything is beautifully shot in color, and the action sequences are excellent for a 1960s movie. …

Top Gun
For me “Top Gun” represents one of the very first movies that I watched at the cinema. For the main actor in this movie Tom Cruise, it represented his ticket to win over directors and a lot of women’s hearts! In other words, the beginning of a success story!
Although …
“The Toolbox Murders” (1978 Film)
The Toolbox Murders is a well known “slasher” film released in 1978. I had heard good about the name before and, being a huge horror film enthusiast, I figured it was well worth giving a view. After seeing the film, I feel that it was a good film that …

Separate Lies, (R, 2005) movie
Every once in a while, I get the hankering for a good old fashioned film about love, marriage, and all that other heavy stuff. Reading the synopsis of this film, I thought that the intrigue would be deeper, that the sex scenes would be more “visually gratifying”, and …
Swordfish
Swordfish is one of the cooler action movies of the last decade despite a couple setbacks. One of it’s producers worked on the Matrix, so it’s got a similar kind of wild, high-tech, fast-paced feel. Now it’s definitely not on the same scale, but it isn’t a rip-off either. …

Movie: “Evan Almighty” (2007)
This movie was a sequel to the 2003 comedy classic “Bruce Almighty”, but it did absolutely no justice to “Bruce”. “Evan Almighty” was sheer disappointment from start to finish.
