X-Men Movie
I marveled at the thought that an X-Men movie was going to be made at last, but all that was cut to threads when I finally saw the film. While the plot is comic like as it should be, it was without intrigue. Some of the characters where well …

Fame (2009) movie
Recently, I watched the 2009 remake of the innovative film, Fame, which spawned a hit TV series. I wasn’t sure how I’d react to it. I liked the original movie, and I adored the series, so this movie had a lot to live up to.
The first thing …
Robin Hood (2010) Movie
Robin Hood (2010) is a retelling of the original Robin Hood legend and tends to be a little more historically based than other Robin Hood stories, but the historical accuracy may vary, because it is a fictional story.

The Shining (1980) movie
I find The Shining to be a completely stunning film, partly down to the transfixing performance of Jack Nicholson and partly down to the direction of Stanley Kubrick. It is based on Stephen King’s book of the same name but Kubrick has given the story an ambiguity that …
A pilot’s wife movie
I watched “The pilot’s wife” today on lifetime movie network. Overall it was a pretty good movie. It could have been better but overall it was pretty good. I would recommend watching it, but if you have a better movie then I would watch that instead. This girl who …
The Foresaken Movie
The Foresaken is one of the many horror movies that were rushed into production following the success of Scream. The makers grabbed a handful of attractive actors, and slapped together a movie without giving it a lot of though.
On the surface this is a typical teen vampire movie, …
The Grudge movie

Paul Verhoeven is a dutch controversial filmmaker who combines social criticism with main stream action and science fiction, and in my opinion this mixture is often very interesting. Robocop takes place in a future where criminality has grown out of proportion and the authorities do everything they can to …
Addicted To Love movie
“Addicted to Love” is all about the actors, Meg Ryan and Matthew Broderick going wild with revenge. Although this is a romantic comedy, Ryan chose to interpret a different character then the usual ‘nice girl from next door’.

Netflicks
While I do think that Netflicks is onto something with the art of doing dvd renting via the mail, I also think that in order for someone to really take advantage of the service completely, you have to sign up for their most expensive program offer. Of course, …
Wubbzy’s Big Movie
My daughter loves the show Wow Wow Wubbzy so, when we were surfing our Netflix instant movies last night and came across Wubbzy’s big movie, she absolutely wanted to watch it.
It was OK but was kind of a disappointment too.
I’m not a huge fan of the show myself and …

My daughter absolutely loves the Bratz. It doesn’t matter if it’s a doll or the latest movie, she needs to have it.

Cyborg 1989 Movie Starring Van Damme

A Real American Hero movie
I wasn’t really sure what to expect from A Real American Hero, a 1978 TV movie about famed sheriff, Buford Pusser. Now this movie was done after at least two of the theatrical Walking Tall films with Joe Don Baker had been released to good success.
I’ve seen those …
Exiled (2007)
I find the movie Exiled pretty similar to one particular movie like a gangster wanting to be good type of story. Exiled is something like that, but the difference is that the setting of this movie is in Macau.
Anthony Wong and Francis Ng star and they sort of like …

Tooth Fairy movie 2010
For its ideals and values, I give this film a B+ but as an entertainment source it has to be a C. Although it had some good moments, overall it didn’t impress me. The storyline was bland, typical, and cutesy. I’m sure kids love it for the …
