It’s amazing how you can go into a movie expecting horrible acting, and a bad plot. But Jennifer Lopez and Marc Anthony have really tapped into a very interesting story about Hector Lavoe. Many people have never heard of this famous salsa king from New York City …

This is the version by surrealist Luis Buñuel, which is surprisingly enough a most conventional film. Buñuel was otherwise a filmmaker who never let the audience’s needs come in conflict with his artistic vision, and only created what he felt was important. His version of Robinson Crusoe shows that …

Hugh Grant is one of my favourite actors of all time, so I was looking forward to his latest movie, Did You Hear About the Morgan’s? to come out in DVD. I had heard lots of rather negative reviews about it, so I wasn’t expecting anything more than his …

I really tried hard to at least give this film a chance. I liked that it was set in Louisiana. I liked that the directors chose to focus on the solstice aspect. I even resigned myself to the fact that there would be several college kids …

I’m usually not a big fan of movies that play the whole 1984 card and focus on “Big Brother.” And, I’ll be the first to admit the idea of a computer independently controlling people’s lives is something out of the 80s (think the movie War Games)and still a bit …

The movie Lakeview Terrace was an all around great movie. The idea of an African American police officer being against an interracial couple is a very unusual idea, but it is possible which makes the movie very believable. Samuel L. Jackson hit another home run with this edge of …

Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer somehow manages to drain out the glamour and the pomposity - sometimes even the fantasy out of the Superhero World.
Rise of the Silver Surfer seems to suffer from sequel-itis - the narrative isn’t as exciting, the story isn’t impressive. There’s practically no …

What adult does not remember Turner and Hootch. Although I am not necessarily a Tom Hanks fan, I really enjoyed this movie. It was so cute to me becuase it did a great job of teachong about overcoming difficulties and the curve balls that life throws at you.
Hootch was …

Several years ago, before Christian Bale took over the title role in a re-invention of the franchise, Michael Keaton wore a cape and became Batman. And, even today, this movie (unlike the sequels after it) remains one of my favorite super hero films.
Keaton does a great job playing Batman …

I don’t know how I went so long without hearing about the Venture Bros. Truthfully, it is one of the best cartoon shows I have ever seen. And I do mean ever. It certainly outshadows anything and everything else seen on Adult Swim (not …

Blair Witch Project 2 is a movie that I like because of Jeffery Donovan, but that’s about it. I had seen the movie a long time ago when it was still in the theater, and thought it was so-so. At least it’s better than the first movie. It picks …

At long last, an uncut, unedited version of 1954’s Godzilla, King of the Monsters has finally appeared on home video in an English subtitled version. When originally released, the film was hack edited and included the silly Rayond Burr footage in order to make the film more acceptable …

I had heard from a friend whose taste I respect that this was a remarkable movie, so I decided to check it out. Well, it’s different, I’ll say that.

The right words to describe the movie “First Daughter” is a Presidential version of “A Princess Diaries”. The true pity is that “First Daughter” has the same story of “Chasing Liberty” and they were both released during the same year 2004. One cannot help but compare …

Although this movie was found to be corny and unhorrifyingly unsuspenseful by some members of my family, I found this too scary and I was really scared watching this movie. This movie had come out in 2007 but it was only shown last year in our country and I …

With so many movie trailers exploiting all their best parts, it’s rare that a movie is better than I expected from the trailer; this is the case with Contraband. I expected a fast-paced, “Gone in 60 Seconds”-style movie, and while it delivers that, it delivers a lot more.
There are …

I’m not sure what it is about Jennifer Aniston movies, but, whenever I see them, I just can’t stay focused on them.
