The first Friday the 13th movie is the one that few people remember. They forget that Kevin Bacon appeared in the movie, and they forget that Jason Vorhees was merely an afterthought. Most people completely forget that it was actually his mother who was the first killer.
Watching this movie …

This remake of a Thai film is, simply put, bad. The acting is stodgy and stilted at best, while the stylistic approach seems to follow that set by The Ring years earlier. It seems like, since the success of that horror movie, numerous new imitations and remakes of asian …

I purchased a comedy DVD called “I Am Dad.” It cost me about 10.00+tax. This DVD is a brilliant combination of comedy and reality, presented by the stylings of comedian Kenn Kington. The DVD is a crown comedy presentation, and is chuck full of the most …

As I mentioned in another review, I had a chance to watch a couple movies yesterday evening (it was raining out and there wasn’t anything good on TV). One of the films I re-watched for the first time in a couple years was the movie What happens in Vegas.

I was very reluctant to watch the movie “Because I said So”. That’s not because I’m not a fan of Diane Keaton or Mandy Moore. It’s because most romantic comedies have the same basic plot and I knew this one wouldn’t be any different.
And, I was right. However, after …

Just to prove that I really am over 50, I own Disney’s “The Fox and the Hound” on a VHS tape! I play it at least once a week because it’s so cute, but not more often than that because I don’t want to wear out the tape.
The …

I had never heard of this British film before, but it stars the new Bond girl, Gemma Arterton, and MacKenzie Crook from The Office fame, so I gave it a go. It’s a new film (2008) but, as with many British films, I haven’t seen it advertised anywhere so …

I must admit that, although Tom Cruise gives an excellent interpreation in the movie “Jerry Maguire”, I still have “Born on the 4th of July” as my favourite movie. What is so great about “Jerry Maguire” is that it relies totally on Tom Cruise in bringing out the best …

Although this movie is a couple of years old, it is still one of my favorite adventure movies. I love the fast paced scenes with the constant explosions. To be honest, I can’t resist a good movie with aliens invading. The story is about the planet earth trying to …

I have just watched this fantastic old black and white movie, Gaslight, starring the wonderful Ingrid Bergman as Paula, a woman nearly driven out of her mind by her husband in a bid to get his hands on her fortune. Bergman won her first Oscar in this role …

A musical with a dark twist…Stunningly horrific…On your edge, nail biting…
Dumbest movie I have ever seen in my whole life. C’mon, what were the diretors thinking. Don’t waste your time people, just look at the name and walk away. This film was never meant to be made.
Rating: 1

My wife picked up the movie Sapphire Girls the other day because she read the back of it and it sounded like an intriguing drama.
It turned out to be nothing more than a soft core porn film; and not a very good one at that.
The movie, which is about …

Many versions of the classic tale of Cinderella have been made and all follow the same storyline with little variation. ‘Cinderella’ (2015), is no exception, however with compelling characters and stunning visuals, I find myself enchanted by the movie.

This movie which acts like a musical is very enjoyable to watch. I really liked the singing, and found Nicole Kidman great in her role. The coincidences were funny, and the entire movie was just silly.
The play within the movie was ridiculous, but how they tied it into the …

From 1989, Mike Hammer: Murder Takes All stars Stacy Keach in the title role of the famous private eye created by Mickey Spillane. This is somewhat of a weird plot that has Mike Hammer being transported covertly to Las Vegas. One thing leads to another and Hammer …

“The Lone Ranger” is more than just a western. It delicately combines the ironic take on the genre and the homage to the similar European and American classics. To me “The Lone Ranger” is something like “Pirates of the Caribbean”, but in the Wild West. Here, in contrast with …
