Drive Movie 2011
What is it with the movie Drive that has taken the movie world by storm? I just saw it two nights ago and I must say, this has truly reminded me of an 80’s genre flick. Just the intro alone, the music, the skyline shot, the dramatic scene of …
Sleepy Hollow
Remember this movie, Sleepy Hollow starring Johnny Depp and Cristina Ricci? Yes, the movie rocks so much that I love to keep on watching it. In fact, whenever my favorite horror movie fans buddies come over or I come over to any of their houses for a movie …
Buck Rogers in the 25th Century
Gil Gerad returns! Yes, after 25 years since the original series went off the air it survived as a huge hit in syndication and on its Sci Fi Channel run. This was a classic adventure series will cool, campy overtones in the first season and then it …
Spanglish
I like Adam Sander movies for the very reason that it’s fun to watch and you’re sure to be entertained. There are some really popular Sandler movies like Click, which is one of my favorite, Anger Management, The Longest Yard and many more. But Spanglish seemed not to be …
Abbott & Costello Meet the Mummy
Since I watched their film, Jack and the Beanstalk, I have been wanting to once again watch Abbott and Costello movies. So, I started watching one I haven’t seen before (except for the ending), Abbott and Costello Meet the Mummy.
The movie was OK but not as funny as some …
Step Up 2: The Streets
Although it is the sequel of “Step Up”, “Step Up 2: The Streets” offers a different type of movie from the original version. I expected the story to be based again, like in the original movie, at the Maryland School of Arts, however the action takes place else where …

Prescription: Murder movie
Prescription: Murder was the movie that spawned the iconic Columbo TV series. The movie starred the dapper Gene Barry in the murderer’s role. That was one thing that was special about the Columbo series. It was always a game of cat and mouse. The mystery …
The Omnimax Theater
Although I feel you might be able to add “four dimensional” components such as motion and interaction with live objects simultaneous with the viewing of the film, the Omnimax provides what I consider the bets visual and audio experience possible.
I’ll get the sound out of the way because it …
HOP movie
I’ll be honest. The only reason I went to this movie is to hear one of the songs in the credits by my favourite artist. I went into this movie kind of just wanting it to be the end soon because I hated animated movies or anything like it. …
Star Trek III movie

Transformers Animated Series - Jazz Action Figure
Jazz is definitely one of the best action figures in the Transformers Animated Series toy line! He is equally awesome in robot mode and car mode, and he retains enough of his look from the original series that you recognize him as Jazz. However, his figure is …
Far Pavilions
This mini-series drew me in right away, probably because of the international aspect of the story. I like movies that offer insight into different cultures, and this is one of them. The story takes place in India, focusing on a British boy Ashton and an Indian princess Anjuli. They …
Into the Blue 2 movie
I wasn’t sure what to expect when we decided to pick up the movie Into the Blue 2: The Reef. We liked the first movie but it also wasn’t one of our favorites so I had doubts about a sequel that didn’t even star any of the actors from …
The Happening (2008)
The Happening (2008)
Director: M. Night Shyamalan. Featuring: Mark Wahlberg and Zooey Deschanel.
I do not remember the last time I have been so disappointed by a movie. Although the trailer had revealed the story right away, there was still some kind of sense of mystery or intrigue that made me …
Batman movie
Batman was Tim Burton’s breakthrough to a major audience, and captures the darkness and gothic aspects of the comic series in a remarkable visual way. Michael Keaton is solid as the hero but the great acting performance is done by Jack Nicholson as the villain The Joker. The role …

You Only Live Twice, movie
Sean Connery’s James Bond takes a vacation from his usual European hot stops and turns native in this movie set in Japan. It doesn’t have the elements that made movies like “Goldfinger” and “Thunderball” great, but it isn’t a bad entry into the film series.
I’m a fan of James …

My Bloody Valentine 3D
I haven’t seen the original so I can’t compare. I will say that this movie is not particularly good.

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 …
Charlie and the Chocolate Factory
I know at my age it would sound ridiculous but I really like this movie. I wanted to believe even just for two hours that I could go to a place like this. Where in I could walk around both indoor and outdoor and all I can …

Che: Part One, starring Benicio Del Toro
I had read a few reviews of the movie “Che” starring Benicio Del Toro, and most of them complained that it was too long at over 4 hours, and that it dragged on and was not interesting enough to hold the viewers’ attention for that long. The other night I …
American Psycho, movie
Based on a book by the same name, “American Psycho” is more than just you’re average thriller or psycho film; it’s a snap shot of the money and corruption running rampant in New York during the 1980’s. Christian Bale puts in an immense amount of effort, and even if …

Untraceable Movie
I must have seen this movie advertise only once or twice before it hit theaters. In fact, in the few times I saw it advertise, I was almost completely sure that the movie would be just another mediocre suspense which Hollywood tried to shove on the average movie goer. …
Star Wars: The Phantom Menace 3D
The prequel Star Wars movies are some of the most hated pieces of fiction in the entire universe known to man. Do they deserve that hate? No. I must say, I never hated the prequels as much as everyone else. Keep in mind, this movie originally came out 2 …

Hancock
I saw this movie last week. Hancock is a breath of fresh air in a genre that is dominated by brooding, serious superheroes with little or no sense of humour. It features Will smith, Charlize theron and Jason Bateman. The story is about John Hancock (Will smith), a reckless …
