Black Sunday movie
Mario Bava’s breakthrough picture has an opening scene that astounded a whole generation of filmmakers. It is so filled with mood and gothic beauty, but at the same time frightening in its graphical violence. The story here is about a witch waking up from her slumber in 1700th century …
Movie Knowing
I was rather excited about seeing this movie. I like Nicolas Cage and I like Science Fiction so I had great expectations but got pretty disappointed. I mean, the movie is not that bad but it is less than I was expecting.
The movie starts when a class of elementary …
Armageddon Sci Fi Action Disaster Movie
Armageddon is a very chaotic film. Certainly the subject-matter warrants it. Suffice it to say: your brain and all of your visual senses will have a workout. In order that you have no preconceived notions about the movie: just know the best advice is: …
I am Legend
…become a good actor ever? Well, in ‘I am Legend’ (the tagline goes something like, ‘the last man on Earth is not alone’), Will Smith sure displays an enhanced acting routine. And that probably due to his constant exposure.
But then again, it’s not all his fault that this remake …
The movie Deadgirl
Deadgirl is a little known movie that was released in 2009. It tells a very dark and horrific story, but manages to do so without too much gore. Still, the movie would only be good for a mature audience. The plot revolves around two high school …
Thor (movie)
One of the movies I had been looking forward to seeing since 2010 was the movie “Thor”. This was not only because I’m a big comic book fan, but because it sounded like it was going to be big from the start. When I watched it for the first …
Private Eyes movie

Marvel’s Captain America: The Winter Soldier: A Movie
My kids were raised reading comic books, and since my husband likes them I have come to appreciate Marvel movies. My husband’s favotire character is Captain American and we have seen nearly every movie that has come out. The most recent movie that we watched (or rather rented) was …
Romancing the Stone movie
The very first thing I became aware of when Romancing the Stone began was how difficult it was to focus on what was happening because during this first bit, the theme music to How the West was Won playing. Of course, it does match what is going on, …
Horse in the Gray Flannel Suit,1968 movie
This is a good, although dated, family movie that you can safely watch with your children without worrying about bad language, violence, or nudity. If your child is obsessed with horses, like I used to be when I was a kid, this movie will be a great choice.
Helen (Ellen …
Independence day
Well, what an intriguing mystery on how the aliens (if there are) may look like was given a hypothetical description in this movie. Yes, it is possible that our technology here on earth may be a little rusty but perhaps those aliens could have done something about their …
Live Free or Die Hard
WOW! It’s the only word I could find once I watched this new Die Hard movie for the fifth time. I couldn’t honestly believe how incredibly good it was. I thought Bruce WIllis was too old to pull off that officer McClane roll again. But, then again, people laughed …
The Devil Wears Prada Movie
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 …

Notes on a Scandal (movie)
Notes on a Scandal, directed by Richard Eyre, is a remarkable movie starring two remarkable actresses: Judy Dench and Cate Blanchett. This Oscar nominated film delves into disturbing territory- it’s plot concerns a young schoolteacher who seeks refuge from a boring marriage and two difficult children in the arms …
Melancholia (2011 film)
Lars Von Trier is a spectacular film-maker for many reasons-his meaningful, charismatic, dark and devouring style, but what really makes his movies memorable is the fact how despairing and the amount of negative feelings that Melancholia for instance arouses with me. I am not stating that …
Whatever It Takes - (starring Shane West)
Whatever It Takes is a movie story about love and feelings involved and finding the right one for you in the end. Acted by the cast of Shane West, David Raynr and 2 beauties, this movie story gets to me. I find it super amazing and the fact …

In The Cut (2003) Movie
I am afraid that I could not help comparing this movie all the way through to Nine and a Half Weeks, the 1987 erotic movie starring Mickey Rourke and Kim Basinger. Now that is an erotic movie and I (and my friends at the time too!) can totally …
Romancing the Stone movie (1984)
(Michael Douglas, Kathleen Turner, Danny DeVito)
Hollywood movies simply don’t get any better than this! Romancing the Stone is pure escapist entertainment: high adventure, lowly villains, handsome heroes, gorgeous—”and brainy—”women in distress, occasionally clumsy yet resourceful villainous sidekicks, incredible locations and a fun and sumptuous soundtrack.
Turner plays …
Back To The Future (1985)
Michael J. Fox’ Marty McFly character and his crazed scientist friend Doc venture off into the great unknown known as the future and the past. In this movie, Marty is introduced to the Delorian, a flying car that uses futuristic technology to transport the occupants of the vehicle both …

Hide And Seek
Hide And Seek was shown on my local TV channel and if it’s acting by Robert De Niro, I always make it a point to watch. This movie also sees the little kid, Dakota Fanning (think she had acted with Tom Cruise as well), I give this story 10 …
Jack and the Beanstalk movie
I had been a while since I’ve watched the Abbott and Costello movie “Jack and the Beanstalk.” Since I wanted to introduce my daughter to it, I figured I would watch it with her last night.
It was even better than I thought it would be.
Even when compared to movies …
Movie: Field of Dreams

What I liked about this movie: I don’t usually say this about movies, but I …
Fog,movie
If ever that I could have a chance to say this to everyone in the world, find a book, do not watch.
Funny it is, ’cause the movie “Fog” was really trying hard to be classically sophisticated sci-fi. Well, no it isn’t. Though, the graphics was seemed great and modern …

Bedtime Stories comedy
Bedtime Stories, starring Adam Sandler, is an enjoyable family oriented comedy. It won’t win any Oscars, but it’s one you feel fairly safe watching with your kids. There is some very mild bad language, but it’s pretty tame even for its PG rating. My one biggest complaint (Spoiler alert) …

The movie Home On The Range
Home On The Range was, in my opinion, not one of Disney’s best movies. I had absolutely no desire to see this movie when it came out. I saw the trailer and was completely and totally unimpressed by they movie. However even though I had decided …
Mimic 2
Mimic 2 is the second version of the original movie. Did you see Mimic? If you did, you might want to skip this one because you already know what is in store for you! The thing about Mimic 2 is that it is more of the same, mutant beings …
50 first dates movie
50 first dates starring Adam Sandler and Drew Barrymore is a nice romantic comedy and is a very good entertainer. The movie must be watched just for Adam Sandler’s comic sense and Drew Barrymore’s beauty. Henry sees Lucy in a restaurant and likes her at the very first instant …
The Edge Of Love
Although Keira Knightley is a very young lady, she is a super awesome actress whom can really act well. This is a super sad and heart wrenching story that would see you thinking of so many perspectives in life. I love stories like this, but having to find …
