A surprisingly interesting film about the genius detective. Since the days of Basil Rathbone there have been few exceptions from the rule of failed Sherlock Holmes films, but this is one of those, much because it doesn’t follow a story written by Conan Doyle in the first place. Instead …

‘A Walk To Remember’ was a film released in 2002, was one unforgettable and must-see movie. The drama made me cry even if I watched it so many times. It’s timelessly and beautifully romantic.
The characters are alive, so true. Among the stars is Mandy Moore, teenager back then. …

Vantage Point is a movie that I had watched a few weeks back which I think had no plot whatsoever. Indeed if you see the title, it is sort of misleading and you would think that it is a boring movie. But it turned out to be a …

This movie is considered a “fashion” movie that’s best applicable for young ladies and women who dreams of making it to a very glam city with a good-paying job, a fantasic career, an even-better boyfriend, and a set of girlfriends to share it all with. Unfortunately, this isn’t the …

If you’re a movie lover but don’t enjoy the hassle of taking trips to the store, standing in line, and taking the movies back to the store to return them, I recommend signing up for a Netflix account. I joined just three short months ago and I LOVE …

The Twilight Sagas have been a phenomenom. People have been going crazy about these blood-sucking movies. Eclipse,the third movie, has been an extraordinary movie. Not also filles with romance but also breathtaking action. Bella has been trying to chose between werewolf jacob, or vampire edward …

I am sure many of you with myself included have seen Bruce Almighty , in which the well known Jim Carrey is an average Joe who curses God for almost anything and is given God’s power to see how simple it really is to rule the Universe.
Evan Almighty is …

Kid Galahad was released one year after Blue Hawaii. I’m sure I didn’t get the connection then and in truth, it’s been many, many years since I’ve actually watched this movie. Now, I saw it several times through adolescence but I really think it’s been a long, …

Since my daughter was very young, she and I have enjoyed watching many fantasy movies over the years. One of our favorites has always been Ron Howard’s “Willow.” The talented Val Kilmer is absolutely fantastic as Madmartigan, a great swordsman who has a tendency to only look out for …

“Prozac Nation” was one of those movies that I didn’t know about until very long after when I had seen it on cable television. The only reason why I even watched it at the time was because I was still fascinated with the actress Christina Ricci, and wanted to …

With all due respect to my fellow reviewers on this site, I thought this movie was pitiful. I recently saw the movie when my father came to town begging to catch this new thriller. What ensued was a couple hours of just absolute silliness. The movie …

Well, I will admit, that was a pretty good movie. When we decided to watch the film Three, I figured it would be like every other thriller I ever watched, with a few intense moments but a plot that was pretty easy to follow and would be too predictable.
But, …

A fairy tale about a young lady who is magically taken off into a distant world when she accidentally wishes that her brother be taken by goblins, she is given the task of finding him buy going through a maze, if she fails, then her young brother will be …

One of my favorite movies has always been The Greatest Show on Earth, starring Charlton Heston. In fact, I believe this is Heston’s first big starring role. He plays Brad, the owner of the circus that travels the country. He has to deal with everything that …

After my cousin told me that an animation movie titled “Frozen” is leading the box-office. I knew this movie had some great odds of getting on top of my best animation movies list with “Tangled”. Tangled was released in 2010 with a great funny, hooking story and heart conquering …

Disney Channel created a sensation with High School Musical in 2006. It has spawned two sequels, but I hadn’t even seen the original until last night. Of course, I’m not of current high school generation, so I’m not their target audience anyway.
That said, I chuckled at the …

Perhaps the most famous and beloved of all Hitchcock’s films, made in a time when his artistic vision and innovative genius was at its absolute peak. The theme is very similar to all of his films: a man is mistaken for someone else and has to run away from …

Death Sentence is not rated by the MPAA, so if you buy this one, view it yourself before you let the kids see it. Kevin Bacon plays a father whose son is murdered and the murderer gets off scott free. Unable to reconcile himself to the fact, he sets …

This is a DVD collection of three “Alvin and the Chipmunks” cartoons from the 1980s. I remember watching these on Saturday morning as a kid, so it was nice to see Alvin, Simon and Theodore again in action. I particularly love their theme song, “We’re the Chipmunks”, and the …

Another addition to my collection of silly movies. Even Steve Martin can’t save it, and that tells you something. But, even such a good comedy actor as him cannot work wonders when the script truly sucks.
The story is about “lonely guys” - single men who for some reason cannot …

Nell is the film where award-winning actress Jodie Foster first tries her hand at directing, so I thought it should be worth watching. It has such a weird premise; a woman is raised without any human companion and brought up in the wild. The lady of course …

Out, aka: Deadly Drifter, from 1982 is, well, strange. I’m not even sure how to describe the plot, if there was a plot. This collection of scenes had a unique start in how the title was present, and I give it points for that. However, considering …

Many movies are made in the comedy section each year. Most of them are the same type of comedy and recycle old jokes. When you find that one movie, that made you cry of laughter… you want to tell people and spread the word about it. For me, the …

The main ingredients of the movie “The Holiday” is a great cast of actresses and a simple, straight forward romantic story. The main topic of this movie is about love the beauty of falling in love and the heart break it brings when we fall out of love. …

Columbo: Grand Deceptions is not one of the movies I enjoy very much. While Peter Falk is always intriguing and watching him facing off against all the murderers is the joy of the Columbo series, some of the ones that surround the military or politics just don’t work …

I am watching this movie on satellite television as I write this review. For what it is this is not a bad movie. Robin Williams stars in RV, a family movie about a man who takes his family on a road trip in a rented RV. I normally do not …

A film by Bernardo Bertolucci who is mostly known for his giant epic Novecento. This is one of his latest films and tells the story of Siddaharta who goes through a spiritual journey to finally become Buddha. It seems to me Bertolucci isn’t any longer the talented filmmaker he …

Everyone knows Harry Potter - that’s how famous Harry Potter is. Whether you enjoy reading fantasies, you have to admit that Harry Potter books are excellent. JK Rowling had successfully created a a fake world which feels so real to the readers.
Too bad the same …

How horrifying it is for a seventeen-year old to discover that there are people preying on his life. After coming out from rehab, JJ had hoped to pick up the pieces of …

I like Clive Owen, he’s probably my favorite English actor, but I’ve seen him in this role before. In his incredibly great movie, Children Of Men, Owen plays a reluctant hero of sorts who needs to escort a pregnant woman to her rendevous point to have her baby without …

I love this movie! I just watched it a few days back and I can say that this is one of my most loved movies after Titanic that is. With Meryl Streep, Pierce Brosnan, Colin Firth and more,it was such an enjoyable movie to watch.
It was all about …

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 …

“Fool’s Gold” is the second movie where we see the actor, Matthew McConaughey interpret the role of a treasure hunter. His other movie was in “Sahara”. I assumed that this movie was going to be something similar to his first movie, but I was mistaken. In this movie, McConaughey …

First thing I want to say this, before I say anything else. What happened here?! I will explain exactly what I mean, but that was the first thing I actually said when I watched this movie from beginning to end and …

No episode better showcases the out of date parodies of Tripping the Rift than this episode: “Power to the Peephole” which bases its entire B plot (or is it the C plot) around the whole Monica Lewinsky debacle. Not just a joke or two, but it is actually …

“Death of a Salesman” is actually a filmed play, one of the best known plays by Arthur Miller. This production has won 7 awards, including Emmy and Golden Globe. Both the play and this movie have been widely discussed - the premise, the drama, the acting. What impressed me …

One of the movies we ended up watching this past weekend was one called “Death of a Ghost Hunter.” My wife and I like the television series “Ghost Hunters” and I figured this movie would be close to that in terms of plot and would be halfway interesting.
I was …

“The Imitation Game” has proven to be one of this year’s top contenders at the more significant film award ceremonies. Does the film, however, truly live up to its praise? The film explores the life of Alan Turing and his experiences in attempting to break the ENIGMA code of …

“War” is an action thriller where you see Jason Statham and Jack Lee act side by side. It is very interesting to see these two action actors involved in the same project. Both Statham and Lee admitted that they accepted their respective roles because they had a chance of …

One of Alfred Hitchcock’s minor works tells a chilling story about murders, innocently accused men and all of the standard Hitchcock components. The difference between this and North by northwest for instance, is that Mr Hitchcock must have been very uninspired when he did this. Either that or that …

Masters of Horror entry Dance of The Dead is actually one of my favorites. When you read some of the reviews on this it gets roughed up pretty bad but I actually felt it had some good characters, an interesting backstory and a horrific conclusion. I think …

Farce of the Penguins starring Samuel L. Jackson and Bob Saget was just that, “Farce.”
If one likes crude humor from cute cuddly cartoon characters then this is the movie for them. The whole story’s purpose was to be the parody of the movie, “March of the Penguins” which depicts …
