The Nun’s Story: A Film by Fred Zinnemann (1959)
I have heard this film is one of Audrey Hepburn’s acclaimed performances. I personally believe it’s also the most critically-absorbing film in the entire Audrey Hepburn —˜genre’. The austere screenplay was very consistent to the point that it almost felt like watching an art film. The …
The Inbetweeners Movie
Let’s be honest, you can count great UK youth flicks on one hand. So Olly Murs hats off, then, to The Inbetweeners Movie, an upgrade for the E4 teen comedy that matches the gag rate of any film this summer and delivers it with the panache of the Yanks but …
American Sniper, movie
Possibly one of Clint Eastwood’s most acclaimed directorial efforts, naturally surpassed by “Million Dollar Baby”, “American Sniper” is both transfixing and emotionally powerful in exploring the turbulent life of the factual Chris Kyle (Bradley Cooper): regarded as the United States’ most brutal and lethal sniper. Opening with an intense and …
Made Of Honour
Made Of Honour sees the charming Patrick Dempsey acting as the main guy and there are also other casts like Michelle Monaghan and Sydney Pollack. What is this movie about..? I think it’s a good movie and I likened it to something like other romantic comedies, starring Sandra …

Just My Luck -Film 2006

House of Wax
House of Wax is a horror movie that most people hated right away, but I liked it. I wouldn’t say that I loved the movie, but I didn’t think it was nearly as bad as everyone said. I’ve never seen the original movie and all I know of it …
Noises Off movie
Noises Off
This is what I consider to be one of the best and one of my favorite comedies of all time. A Broadway play gone wrong. If you were sitting in a front row seat, you couldn’t help but to just die laughing. When it comes to stage plays …
Up Movie
This movie just came out a month or so ago, I believe (2009). I went to see on the Fourth of July with my family. Although I am a bit old for these movies (Up was meant for kids), I thought it was an amazing movie. I enjoyed the …

Let Sleeping Corpses Lie
Neither a brilliant film in its own right or high scorer in the genre, The Living Dead at Manchester Morgue or Let Sleeping Corpses Lie as it is sometimes known, is a passable enough zombie movie that should prove watchable enough at least to any zombie fan. The story …
The Mechanic Movie (2011)

What was unusual, and what I really liked about this movie, unlike …
Final Destination IV movie
I almost didn’t finish this movie when I watched it with my friends in September of 2009. It was just released a few days ago, and so the cinema at Strawberry Hills mall here in Surrey, Canada was filled to the rafters.

Sweet November
“Sweet November” is definitely not the best movie for Keanu Reeves and Charlize Theron; however the magic that they make in this movie is simply incredible. I simply love it, even though it has a different conclusion from what I would have liked and most importantly, even though they …
Ninjas Vs. Vampires, movie (2011)
Endlight Entertainment’s Ninjas Vs. Vampires is not a movie that is meant to be watched alone. Don’t take that statement as this is the scariest movie ever made, although it does have a few jumps and some decent blood-spilling. This is a movie where you have some …

Memoirs of a Geisha
Another Cinderella story with a cultural relevance is Memoirs of a Geisha, a movie adaptation of Arthur Golden’s best selling novel. If there is anyone who is into cultural immersion and intense drama, then I recommend this movie.

The Spiderwick Chronicles
When my roommate rented this, I was expecting another Eragon, an unoriginal fantasy that rehashes the same elements that we’ve seen before. The fact that this movie was brought to us by the same studio that gave us “Good Burger” did nothing to squelch my fear that we …

Jumper
For the amount of recognizeable talent in this movie, I made the mistake of thinking that it had to be good and I neglected to check out reviews of it before I spent the $10.50 on a movie ticket to go see it.
The plotline was horrible. It was …

Original Sin movie
British dramas aren’t the easiest for me to watch. I’ve tried off and on, but they have their cultural slant that this American reviewer often just doesn’t get. The biggest thing for me is still trying to understand the lingo and sometimes just the spoken words. …
