This is a comedy starring John Candy and he plays a very stupid private investigator in this movie. Truthfully, I didn’t find this movie very funny or entertaining. That is sad as I normally enjoy movies with John Candy. He did the acting well enough but I just didn’t …

When we first saw previews for the movie Adventures of a Teenaged Drama Queen, we thought it would be a somewhat funny movie. Turns out it was actually quite dull.
Unless you like seeing a teenaged Lindsay Lohan in a tight red dress, there really isn’t much value to this …

The movie “How the Grinch Stole Christmas” was the first Dr. Seuss live action film I have ever seen. It starred the actor Jim Carrey and it came out when I was still a teenager in high school. I can remember that the movie was so popular that there …

The Toolbox Murders is a well known “slasher” film released in 1978. I had heard good about the name before and, being a huge horror film enthusiast, I figured it was well worth giving a view. After seeing the film, I feel that it was a good film that …

Columbo: Murder, a Self Portrait opens at the basset hound club. I’m laughing and having a good time already. They showed a lot of the different competitions during the opening credits. The dress up category had prisoner bassets, Sherlock Holmes bassets, and flamingo bassets. What a …

I wonder where the actors of this 1980 histerically funny movie are now. What I was referring to was the movie “Gods Must Be Crazy I, which had an equally funny sequel Gods Must Be Crazy II in 1989.
I could not tell in the beginning of …

From 1960, The Wackiest Ship in the Army is absolutely terrific to watch. It’s a movie I’ve seen more times than I can count and it’s one I always enjoy. It’s lighthearted drama that deals with Navy action in World War II. Right off the bat, …

I wasn’t sure what to think when they cast Robin Williams as a presidential candidate in the movie Man of the Year. But, after watching the film last night, I do think it is better than I expected it to be; though I’m not sure its his best film.
Williams …

I remember seeing “Nine to Five” for the first time when I was only twelve years old. I loved it then, and I love it just as much today. I still like to watch parts of it whenever it appears on TV. To all the ladies out there, this …

“Herbie Fully Loaded” is the fifth movie about the famous car Herbie that could react to what is happening around here. The other four previous movies were “The Bug Love” (1968),”Herbie Rides Again” (1974), “Herbie goes to Monte Carlo” (1977) and “Herbie Goes Bananas” (1980). Although I didn’t watch …

You’ve Got Mail (1998) Starring Meg Ryan and Tom Hanks is a classic meg flick. She’s at her usual, quirky best; off beat and fun.
Hanks also known for his romantic comedies, mostly co-starring along side Meg; this movie won’t disappoint you.
You’ve Got Mail, a blast from the past remake …

This movie is as charming as funny as it is romantic, and it is another film based off of one of Jane Austen’s works. The colors are lovely, and the characters all are just as I would have imagined them after reading the book. It is very accurate, and …

I personally had a lot of hope for this movie because of the amount of publicity it got, the celebrities which were involved such as film star Lindsay Lohan and the actress Meryl Streep; and just the fact that our cable service provider even ordered the movie for its …

Despite the fact that this animated feature was terribly inaccurate to the Greek myth of Hercules, I liked it. Actually, I think I may have liked it even more than my kids did.
James Woods is absolutely hilarious as Hades, and all of the characters are fun and interesting. …

During Christmas time, I had decided to buy The Holiday DVD for my friends since I loved this movie; I made all my friends watch it too. I really like the movie as it gives sense of feeling that not all is lost if you break up with the …

I just have to say I don’t know how she does it- how does a talented actress like Sarah Jessica Parker gets herself in those awful, overly produced, overly censured movies every single time. I don’t know how she does it movie might have been based on an interesting …

I don’t know why I bother taping “horror” films off of the SyFy channel. Yes, occasionally, they will have a decent one. But, more often than not, the movies are actually pretty darn terrible.
The film Open Graves is a good example of that.
I DVR’d this film back in February …

Who ever said that the movie, “The Bank Job” directed by Estonian director, Brad Jurjens is a good movie, well he/she doesn’t know what they are talking about. This supposed to be dramatic movie has a good story, but the end result is really horrible due to the way …

Aliens, Guns & a Monkey is a pretty fun episode of Tripping the Rift. For this episode the crew of the Jupiter 42 set ground on a planet that is completely in love with guns. This of course sets off a lot of talk about the morality …

This movie was one hell of a ride. Although it didn’t keep me on the edge of my seat from beginning to end as it did for some viewers, I was nervous, excited, and always curious as to the plot of the film and what was going to …

“The Others,” 2001, offers an unusual twist of a hunted mansion story. Grace (Nicole Kidman) is a young mother who lives in a large house with her two children, Charles and Anne, waiting for her husband to come home from World War II. The children are allergic to sunlight, …

Ella Enchanted is somewhat of a cross between Cinderella and Shrek. We have a modernized fantasy world with ogres, elves, giants, taxi carriages and man-powered wooden escalators. And we have a teenage girl Ella who lives with a step mother and (of course) her two evil daughters. However, there …

An underrated piece from John Carpenter, made between Halloween and Escape from New York. The story, that involves a fog attacking people in a small coast town in America, may be a little bit mundane, but the way Carpenter creates moods and scare his audience here is simply top …

A Few Good Men is a very good movie and a very powerful film. I think this is one of the best military movies ever made. Even though it did not have many if any gun battles or fights it truly kept you at the edge of your seat and …

I am actually ashamed to admit that I watched this film in its entirety. I should have known that a film in which Bokeem Woodbine and Tamala Jones are cast in main roles as a powerful doctor/lawyer husband wife team, would be treacherous. Where do …

A young boy accidentally stumbles across an ancient Boom Box and manages to release a strange person who calls himself Kazaam, it would seem that this person is a genie but the boy had no knowledge of such things until Kazaam himself tried to explain it to him. At …

Shyam Benegal is one of the greatest Directors that Indian Cinema has ever had. His films are artistic and are concerned with social issues. He has made many landmark movies like Nishant, Mandi, Hari Bhari, Kalyug, Suraj ka Satva Ghoda, and many other classic. H has been tagged as …

This is one of my favorite movies. The movie is about a less-than-beautiful, frumpy woman looking for love.
Bridget Jones (Renee Zellweger) is a secretary for a publishing company who is in love with her boss (Hugh Grant) who shamelessly flirts with her (and her skirt!). After the pair have …

I know this movie is a rip off of Jumanji and was therefore given a bad rating, but in all honesty this was actually a pretty good movie. It is especially great for kids witht the exception that the younger brother calls his sibling a dick. This …

Pedro Almodovar has been called the greatest spanish director since Luis Buñuel. In my opinion that title would go to Julio Medem, but I still think Almodovar is great and especially this enigmatic film about strange people. As always in the films of Almodovar, he is not afraid to …

This company certainly knows how to work you over and obtain maximum revenue at consumer loss! A few years ago they had a $19.99 plan that allowed 3 discs at a time with UNLIMITED in store exchanges. They since changed that plan to allow only FIVE exchanges per month …

We have Piper (played by Elisabeth Harnois), who …

OK, maybe it’s because I’m not a huge Nick Nolte fan but I just can’t seem to get the movie Mulholland Falls. When it first came out, it looked entertaining. I like thrillers that make me think and thought this film would fit that category. And, having some A-list …

In 1959, Doris Day and Rock Hudson performed together for the first time, and they did it with style. This is a superb comedy with two great performances, not to mention the wonderful talents of Tony Randall. In this movie, Day and Hudson share a party line. …

OK, I know I should like Jack Black. But, I just can�t seem to find any respect for him.
The problem I have is he�s one dimensional. He can�t do drama or action. It has to be comedy. Even when he tries to be serious, you can�t help but think …

I have had Blockbuster Total Access by mail for three months now and I love it. It is way cheaper than renting from the store which is great. We all need to save some money and during the hot summer months movies are a great way to have family …

The film 2001: A Space Odyssey is a mind bending triumph of land mark cinematic filmmaking. Released in 1968, it was a box office hit, but was misunderstood by many critics as to what they were viewing. They had no idea they were viewing a celluloid epic creation which …

Totally Recalled is one of the more enjoyable episodes of the Tripping the Rift series. The plot revolves for once about Gus, the android played by the brilliant Maurice LaMarche. In fact LaMarche is showcased a lot in this episode, as he plays not only Gus but a …

(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 …

I was looking for something to watch before bed last night. I wanted something along the horror movie line but also didn’t want something too scary because I didn’t want my wife having nightmares (really). After some thought, I ended up choosing the movie Dead and Breakfast.
The thing I …

Many movies are made in the comedy section each year. Most of them are the same type of comedy and recycle old jokes. When you find that one movie, that made you cry of laughter… you want to tell people and spread the word about it. For me, the …

Hook was a movie full of great moments and acting. I really thought that Robin Williams and Dustin Hoffman did a great job of acting in this film. Dustin Hoffman played the infamous Captain Hook. He really looked and sounded like Hook. He was very funny and did a really …
