What initially got my attention when the 1962 film Wild Guitar began was a shot of Revue Studios, which produced my favorite show of all time, Laramie. I’d never seen the Revue building and knowing a bit about Los Angeles, this gave me an idea of where it …

A movie based on the life of Howard Hughes and all the trials he beared in his lifetime. From the Actresses to the Hearings of his mis-use of government funds and his compulsive tendencies. Leonardo DiCarprio portrays a great Howard Hughes…a well done performance. This movie is not a …

Remakes of classic horror movies don’t have the best track record. Yet, we live in an age where they are common place due to…I’m not sure.
I was skeptical when I heard that they were remaking “Evil Dead”. I’m a fan of the original trilogy and doing …

Before watching this film I knew nothing about it other than its name, and the fact it had won a bunch of awards. I saw the film’s poster, which although quite cool, didn’t make me want to watch the film itself. It was a good few years after its …

This movie was hilarious, definitely a must see! Sacha Baron Cohen from Borat is back as Bruno for yet another epic comedy! Many people are completely against it, but what can you expect with a movie about a homosexual fashion oriented male? Many oppose it just on the basis …

Here is another example of why Hollywood should stay as far away from comic book remakes as possible. This movie is so bad, it makes ‘bad’ seem like a candy bar. At first when the movie started, I was all geared up to enjoy Hulk style destruction similar to …

Forgetting Sarah Marshall is a very hilarious movie that I love watching.
I caught this on DVD moments back and it’s basically about a guy trying to get over his ex-girlfriend but having problems with that when he decides to go on a vacation and sees her there with …

I am reviewing the movie, Around the Bend, starring Michael Caine, Josh Lucas, and Christopher Walken. This movie is about common, everyday things. It is about a young father who is taking care of an older man in his house, while trying to raise his young boy at …

A friend recommended this book to me, and told me that it was an emotional love story which she thought I’d like. So, I went and watched the film in the cinema. It definitely exceeded my expectations.

On seeing that the book was written by Nicholas Sparks, I was put off. …

My personal experiences with horses have been unfortunate so I avoided watching the movie “The Horse Whisperer” until recently. My first unfortunate experience with horses was at the Grays Harbor county fair the year I turned fifteen. I was trying to impress my first real girlfriend. As we toured …

One of the movies that I watched recently was an action and adventure movie called “The Green Hornet” that starred the actor Seth Rogen, and an Asian actor who did not seem familiar to me. When I first saw the movie trailer on youtube earlier on this …

The first time that I saw the movie “Bingo” was several years ago in either the late nineteen nineties or the early two thousands, and I was not very impressed with the movie. Even when I watched it a little more recently, I still was not impressed with it. …

When this movie came out, Anne Hathaway was pretty young. She was playing a sixteen year old who has no idea that she is a princess in a royal court. In school, she is not popular at all. She has really frizzy afro-like hair and the only person she …

Heath Ledger was best at his old-fashioned roles I think. He could play the gentleman, the rogue, even the villain, but his most touching films are ones that he is dawning an old-fashioned tunic, and this is one of those. This was the first movie of his that I …

I was not planning to watch this movie. Channel surfing brought me to the movie about ten or fifteen minutes into it. I decided to give it a moment, check things out before surfing on to another channel. But I stayed and watched the whole thing, and loved every …

Good Against Evil, a 1977 movie, was apparently a pilot for a TV series which didn’t sell. I’m not surprised, to be honest. Unfortunately, this also means that there is no ending really to the picture. That’s because the catalyst for the action had to be …

This film features Eliijah Wood as an american who comes to visit his sister in England. There he meets his somewhat naive nephew, who spends his saturday night fighting. He is a football fan, but more importantly a hooligan who likes fighting more than watching football. His new american …

I have always dreamed of going to Spain and when i learned that the factual back-drop of Vicky Cristina Barcelona was Barcelona and Oviedo, i watched it sans hesitation.

I’m such a huge fan of Angelina Jolie that I’ve seen every film she has starred in. The latest of which is “Wanted”, the action-packed flick based on the comics by Mark Millar and JG Jones and directed by Timur Bekmambetov about Wesley Gibson (James McAvoy) a man who …

Astro Boy is a TV cartoon series, back when I was still very young, which made its debut in the movies. This is actually one of my favorite cartoon characters of all time. The story is about a scientist who created a robot with the emotions and …

I held off watching the movie We Are Marshall until I could see it for free on a movie channel. The reason for this is I expected it to be yet another sports movie filled with plenty of clichés and not much else.
I was right on the first part. …

I have been thinking about watching The Believer movie for many years now. I have been attracted to this movie by the shocking DVD cover and poster for the movie. But every single time I took it off the shelf in the video store I felt very strong doubt …

Like thousands before me, I adore Frank Capra’s “It’s a Wonderful Life.” I initially only consented to watch the movie because James Stewart played the main role. As a teenager, he was one of my idols, and I watched every movie he played in which I could get my …

As I often do, I spent some time Friday looking through Netflix’s Instant Watch section for movies I could watch with my two girls.
One of the movies I came across was the VeggieTales movie Pistachio. This proved to be worth watching.
The movie (which is essentially one of their TV …

This is one film that a lot of Ellen Page fans have probably missed out on. This movie follows the chilling, and true story of Sylvia Likens. Sylvia was a 16 year old girl killed in the mid 1960’s through a long, drawn out case …

I finally got around to watching the movie Angels & Demons last night. And, to be honest with you, that decision was based almost solely on the fact I couldn’t find anything better to watch at the time.
I have had the book this movie is based off of for …

Don’t make the mistake to regard the movie “Nim’s Island” as just another movie for kids. This movie is ideal for all the family jam-packed with drama, romance and funny moments. Apart from providing us with a cute and entertaining story, “Nim’s Island” has got an A-List of actors …

Tokyo Majin Episode 2 shows how Tatsuma Hiyuu transferred to Magami High School and met Kyouichi Horaiji, Aoi Misato, Komaki Sakurai and Yuuya Daigo. It’s basically an origins episode that shows how they were first attacked by the undead.
Because of the very confusing first episode, I didn’t know …

For a long time I watched the poster for this movie and wondered whether I should bother myself with watching it. I’m not really a fan of the Hulk movies, and I do not like the concept on which it runs itself the storyline that in my opinion, at …

An italian horror film that was included in a Dario Argento dvd box I got ahold of recently. The strange thing is that Argento did not direct this, so did another man named Sergio Stivaletti.
The film is set in France in the early 20th century. People are getting killed …

Hitch is a movie that came out in 2005 starring Will Smith as the main actor of the film. In this film he plays the role of someone that hooks up men with girls, but in a subtle way and he only does it for true love!
The movie …

For me, “Sex Drive” was an instant classic. I couldn’t stop laughing all the way through this ridiculous romp. Like most of the movies I prefer, it’s based on a book (’All the Way’ by Andy Behrens). I was absolutely entertained and look forward to watching it again.
The film …

I rented the Outer Limits : Death and Beyond series because I’m truly a creepy person. I’ve always loved the Twilight Zone and Tales from the Darkside. So, I thought that this would be a natural DVD choice for someone like me. Boy was I …

I’m not a huge fan of Seth MacFarlane. I used to like “Family Guy”, but eventually grew tired of it to the point where even the early seasons aren’t as enjoyable as I remember them. “The Cleveland Show” was just awful from the start and, while I’ve …

When compiling a list of great martial arts movie stars several names are almost always expected to top that list, Bruce Lee is always present, as is Jackie Chan, and the same can likely be said for Jet Li. But, one name that is almost always painfully overlooked is …

I was fortunate enough to be able to see this movie in the theatres and I loved it. I don’t agree with the message it sends to its viewers but I found it funny and entertaining just the same. And here’s why you should watch Knocked Up.
Knocked …

This was a film that was a big disappointment for many when it came out, but has been revalued among certain people and is considered as the funniest film of the whole 1990s by some of my friends. The story is that of a cable guy played by Jim …

I watched this movie when it aired on lifetime. I mostly watched it because Hillary Swank was in it and it was on lifetime. I didn’t really care for the movie. Not because of what it was about but because I didn’t really understand the movie. It’s about a …

The countdown to the end has begun for Harry Potter fans around the world. My family and I saw “Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1” a couple weeks after release, and couldn’t be more pleased. Unlike the previous films where the screenwriters and producers left out major …

I received this from blockbuster yesterday, I wanted to hurry up and watch it so that I could send it back today. I thought it was a pretty good movie overall. It definitely made me laugh a couple of times. Although it wasn’t hilarious it still made me laugh …

Watch Zoolander and you will go crazy laughing like mad. Ben Stiller and Owen Wilson star in this and this is such a funny movie if I’m not mistaken during the early 2000-2003, not sure which period.
However, do not take too serious note of the political issues …

When I saw the dvd at the house of a friend, I could not help thinking that the name “Battle Planet” sounded familiar. However, later on I learned that the movie was actually a Syfy original science fiction movie, and after reading a good, review on it, I was …

I always thought that movies based on books are rarely better than the book itself. It is indeed difficult to put in live screen what words have described. For me, the best books that could be made into a movie are the fantasy movies because the imagination is always …

When it comes to Arnold Schwarzenegger movies, Conan the Destroyer is always the first one that comes to mind.
A sequel to Conan the Barbarian, this one is a bit more kid friendly but still has plenty of action and interesting monsters to keep everyone entertained.
In the movie, Conan is …
