Sgt. Bilko
When Steve Martin re-did the Pink Panther movie, I thought his performance was actually better than the original. But, that wasn’t the only movie I can say that about.

Star Trek (2009, J.J. Abrams)
First off let me get one thing quite clear: I’m not a Trekkie. I AM a self-confessed sci-fi geek but have just never been into Star Trek.
I like the borg, an inspired concept. The Enterprise looks cool. Scotty was amusing and Spock was Spocky. But that’s about it. I …

It’s time to put Blockbuster behind us.
Here’s why:
Selection. It doesn’t matter whether you like horror, comedy, romance, or history movies– Netflix has it all.

Courage Under Fire - (starring Denzel Washington and Meg Ryan)

Speed Racer (2008)
This movie is a live action movie that has been created off the cartoon TV series that is still being aired on the Boomerang channel and a newly revised series on the Nicktoons Networks. The movie is just abominable if that’s the right word to use for it. Terrible …
Film Halloween
The last time I saw the 1978 version of Halloween, I was a pre-teen and, to be perfectly honest, couldn’t remember much about the movie.

Gone Girl (2014 film)

The King’s Speech (2010 film)

Agatha Christie’s Murder at the Gallop movie

Paranormal Activity (2009 film)

Tropic Thunder
I was on a quest this summer to find the best comedy, and they saved the best for last, in my opinion. Tropic Thunder is the funniest movie of summer 2008. Better than Zohan, Get Smart, Pineapple Express, AND Step Brothers, which is saying a lot giving …

The Deaths of Ian Stone
I’m a huge SyFy junkie, so when I watched this movie a while back, The Many Deaths of Ian Stone, I was mystified and captivated. Of course, it’s a made-for-tv movie, so the special effects leave a lot to be desired, but as far as these movies go, it’s …
Salt (movie)
In late 2010, me and a friend of mine wanted to go and see a nice action film in theatres and we were extremely delighted when “Salt” was released. Judging from what we saw in the trailer at the time, the movie seemed like it was going to have …
