Night of the Living Dead (1990 Remake)
Gore maestro Tom Savani takes over directorial duties in this remake of Romero’s classic zombie movie.
There’s no monumental changes with this new version. It’s shot in colour, the gores a bit more impressive (but surprisingly much more played down considering Savani’s involvement) but there’s some tinkering about with …
Sisterhood of the traveling pants 2
I rented and watched the sisterhoods of traveling pants 2 today. I’ve never seen the first one but I understood most of it. It was kind of boring at parts, and I felt like something was missing in it. It is a teen movie so maybe that is why …

Sliders Third Season DVD
Before I go into the show itself featured on this DVD collection, I have to say something about the packaging. The packaging for the first and second seasons DVD collection of Sliders was nothing to write home about, but at least it was serviceable. Sliders Third Season …
Day Of The Dead movie
Me and my mother are big fans of zombie films. We have seen a lot of zombie films but this one is my favorite. This was just actually a remake of a classic film of the same name. I haven’t watched that one so I cannot compare which is …

Movie Mirrors
Last night, my friends and I watched Keifer Sutherland’s Mirrors. We saw the trailer before watching Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants 2and were really enraptured. Anyway, it’s supposed to be a horror film so we made sure to watch it at night. :)
The plot’s really simple: An ex-detective, Sutherland …
What Happens in Vegas
Reading the description of What Happens in Vegas, you would assume it is like many other romantic comedies that have come out over the years, like How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days or the more dramatic The Breakup. But, after watching it last night, I have to …
Land of the Lost movie
I have a mixed feeling after watching Land of the Lost. In a way, I feel “lost”. There are some good parts in this movie and some not so good parts. It’s a funny movie with dinosaurs and many more exotic creatures that we will never be …

I Can Do Bad All By Myself film (2009)
I Can Do Bad All By Myself is another one of my favorite films from the director Tyler Perry. In my honest opinion I feel like this one of his best pieces compared to some of his recent work. I also call this one a classic because it’s well …
Cow Belles
If you’re looking for a good movie that gives you a plot that’s a little different than the other movies you’ve seen then Disney’s movie “Cow Belles” is one you’ll want to avoid.
After finally getting to see the entire film, I can say it is good. But, it’s nothing …
Marley & Me (2008)
This movie starts off simple enough with a newly married couple finding their way in the world, firstly by moving to a newer, warmer city, finding jobs and then finding a place to call home. Everything was going well, that was until talks of a baby came up and …
The Breed
While the movie The Breed isn’t one of the better scary movies I’ve watched, it still turned out to be a half way decent thriller and I would recommend taking the time to rent it.

Lucky You movie
“Lucky You” is a great movie about poker. I feel that, although this is a good film, it may lack appreciation from the general public due to the fact that it is too focused on poker and how a poker player can be so insensitive to the environment and …

I am reviewing the movie, Bad Tidings, starring John Nettles and John Hopkins as Chief Inspector Tom Barnaby and Detective Sergeant Dan Scott. This movie was made in 2003, was produced by Brian-True-May, and was based off the novels written by author Caroline Graham.
In this movie, Bad Tidings, viewers …
Adventureland movie
What an upset of a movie this was. I am surprised that I heard as many good reviews about it because I thought it sucked. I didn’t laugh not even one time during the whole duration of the movie. The movies is about a boy who just graduates from …
Disney’s The Hunchback of Notre Dame
A classic remake in animation of The Hunchback of Notre Dame. It’s wonderful use of colours left my eyes watering…and the plot was good. Good guys showed their courage, bad guys showed how evil they can be, and gargoyles showed they had no legs…lol. This is another great animated …

88 Minutes movie 2007
There’s nothing like a good Al Pacino movie but this wasn’t one of them. 88 minutes is a thriller that will confuse you until the very end. Mostly because the things that happen in it are so unrealistic and unbelievable that you think “there must be something more,” yet at …
Movie Love Wrecked
I honestly love watching Amanda Bynes movies, however “Love Wrecked” must be her worst movie since the story is not credible at all.
In “Love Wrecked” we see Amanda Bynes interpret the role of Jenny Riley who is totally crazy about a famous and popular rock star, Jason Master. …
Days of being wild movie
The chinese director Wong Kar-Wai is my absolute favorite to appear during the last 20 years. Days of being wild is only his second film ever, made in the early 1990s, but already here he showed his amazing talent with an entirely unique way of putting images together and …
Disney’s Mulan movie
If you have watched this movie, you would agree with me that this is so much different than all other films produced by Walt Disney Pictures. Mulan takes its art and story cues directly from Chinese mythology and successfully blends them with Disney elements. Mulan is a loveable, spirited …

Movie The Ruins
I was quite disturbed by watching the movie, The Ruins. It is a gore story and in fact, filled with too much gore that made the story loses its plot, personally to me. Honestly speaking, I think this story makes Jeepers Creepers seem like nothingness. But …
An Englishman in New York 2009
An Englishman in New York is a 2009 television movie which tells the story of the latter years of the great eccentric Quentin Crisp. The title of the drama is taken from the brilliant song by Sting which plays as the final credits are rolling. I was …
Battle Creek Brawl (1980) movie
Watching this movie was a fairly new and interesting experience for me, since I don’t think I’ve ever seen a Jackie Chan movie like it, and I also used to like Jackie Chan movies. Yes, it was still one of Jackie Chan’s martial arts comedies, but I don’t usually …
Les Amours imaginaires / Heartbeats movie

Good Luck Chuck DVD
In retrospect, I should have rented the Rated version of this DVD and left the unrated version on the shelf; but come to think of it, the rental store didn’t have the Rated DVD.
I remember thinking, the previews were cute with Jessica Alba being so klutzy and …

Julie and Julia
I wasn’t prepared to like Julie and Julia when I rented it on DVD; although I enjoy Nora Ephron’s writing, whether it is books or screenplays, I just didn’t think a movie about the famed cook Julia Child would be that interesting. Despite the fact that she remains one of …
