War of the Worlds (Movie 2005)
This is an interesting film to watch for the first time as you just want to see the outcome. To want to watch this movie more than once is strictly an individual experience, as I found that it does not have what it takes to hold me glued to …
Heartbreak Kid DVD
Any move with Ben Stiller is bound to be funny and the Heartbreak Kid is no exception. And now you can bring it home on DVD and enjoy it whenever you want. But it is definitely an adult comedy, rated R, so if you can make sure the kids …

The movie I am about to review is called Epic Movie released in 2007.Yes,it is literally called Epic Movie!!. The reason for this strange title is that the movie is a spoof of a couple of popular and high grossing movies that came out the time of the movie.Spoofs …
Movie : Dolan’s Cadillac (2009)
When I saw this movie the firs thing that surprised me was Christian Slater was still acting. I was sure he had dissapeared into oblivion years ago, but based on his starrign role in the film he obviously still has a lot left to offer the cinema world and …
Don’t Look in the Cellar (Trailer, 2009)
Normally, in the first paragraph of a review, I try and proved information such as the stars, director and such. This time, however, that task became untterly impossible, because although this is a trailer, I can’t find word one about anything else related to this film. Now …
Inception Movie (2010)

Farewell to Harry movie
From 2002, Farewell to Harry is a small story, told quietly. It has some very slow moments, but that’s the grace of the film. It also has that mystery to it, to figure out what is truth from what is whimsy. I found that as I …

I Am Legend DVD
I am Legend is very much a one man show with lead actor Will Smith on great form in undeniably his best screen performance to date. Overhyped? almost definately, but despite this the end result is ultimately rewarding.
So what’s it all about ? Emma …
Finn’s Girl movie
“Satisfyingly adult in its depiction of female sexuality” - that’s an endorsement from LA Weekly for this movie.
The cover’s poster is two woman holding each other tight and smiling happily, as they’re in love. So i guess this is a lesbian movie, right? But not the one you …
50 First Dates
Adam Sandler is thoroughly charming in the movie date, 50 First Dates. I caught this on DVD and in fact, I have done that lots of times. I always do not fail to laugh whenever I watch 50 First Dates, and the side-kick heroine in this laughable romantic …
Mr. Woodcock, comedy film by Craig Gillespie

The Company of Wolves (1984)
This is a unique werewolf movie based on “Red Riding Hood” and one I enjoyed watching. Angela Landsbury is the star and she does a wonderful job of playing the girl’s grandmother. Based on the clothing the characters wear, the story is set during Pilgrim days except it takes …
Wilde movie

Movie Rush Hour 3
When they came out with a 3rd Rush Hour movie, my first thought was “this will have a few laughs but will fail to live up to the first two movies.” After watching the movie this past weekend, I can now say I was wrong. This movie might actually …
Escape to Witch Mountain movie
Disney’s 1975 film, Escape to Witch Mountain, is a delight even now, decades later, as I write this review. The cast is terrific, and the story definitely entertains. It’s done with traditional family style and adventure, and even more so, there was a lot of heart, and …
A ma Soeur (drama movie)

The Phantom Of The Opera (2004) Movie
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
American Graffitti movie
American Graffitti was all the rage when it came out, but it did little for me. In truth, I didn’t see it for a long time after the release, and it may have suffered from overkill. By that, I mean that there was so much publicity for …
The Notebook (movie)
With Valentine’s day coming up (or even if you’re reading this after that day), this might be a good movie to check out. The Notebook is the movie version of Nicholas Sparks’ book, as you probably already know. As with all of the other stories that this …
Movie: Witless Protection
I loved the first Larry the Cable Guy movie I saw, the one where he is a health inspector. So, I figured I couldn’t go wrong with the movie Witless Protection.

Charlie’s Angels
It’s been a while since I’ve seen the movie Charlie’s Angels. The last version I watched was the sequel, which I hated, so it was refreshing to see the original again.
While some parts of the movie are a bit dumb, this film, overall, isn’t too bad.
You have an all …

King Arthur
First off, I did not hate this movie. It was a somewhat entertaining movie with nice special effects, great battle sequences, and acting, when not overblown or stale, was watchable. What bothered me was at the beginning of the movie, we are promised with text on the …
Avengers: Age of Ultron (Superhero Film)
Marvel, Marvel, Marvel. The only time a Marvel movie turned out right was when the first Avengers movie came out and even then- way too much action. Avengers: Age of Ultron is one of those movies where the visuals draw you in but the story spits you out. If you …

From 1990, The Long Walk Home is an amazing thought-provoking film that centers around the famous bus boycott that occurred in Montgomery, Alabama back in 1955. It’s all about segregation and equality. We’ve come a long way, as this movie depicts, and yet there is still so …

The Legend Of 1900
The Legend Of 1900 is a movie about this man who lives on a ship. Tim Roth, one of my favorite character actors, plays 1900, the person who the story was written about. The Legend Of 1900 is so beautiful that the movie just made me get all weepy …

Apollo 13
Last night was probably the 10th time I’ve seen the movie Apollo 13 and I have to say, it is still as good as the first time I saw it.
