As a big Harry potter fan I went to see the motion picture Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix at the local movie theatre. However I must say that I am disappointed. David Yates does not do justice to the book at all. I see it as …

Netflix
This is the best on-line movie rental program ever!! Even BlockBuster can’t come close to this. We love the selection of movies on DVD from old black and white silent to today’s current movies. TV shows that we grew up with and miss, since we think …

Maid In Manhattan
I don’t know whether to label this story, Maid In Manhattan as being realistic or not because it is very much rare that a rich man would fall in love with someone of a lower status than him, though it’s not impossible. And a maid at that. But …
Dancer in the Dark (2000)
This movie rocks my world everytime I warch it. Rocks my world, meaning that it plays with my feelings so easily, this movie absorbs me completely. It’s about pure emotion and empathy, presented in the most heartfelt way ever: a mother’s love for her son. The story is set …

Sherlock Holmes movie
From 2009, it’s Robert Downey Jr. starring in Sherlock Holmes and playing the well-known sleuth. Here are a few of my observations.
–The best thing about the movie is the music. It’s powerful and dramatic. It highlights all of the happenings very well. It makes you …

Lt. Robin Crusoe USN
This is not one of Disney’s most well acclaimed live action films to emerge from the 1960’s. Most critics pretty well abhor it, though, suprisingly, it was one of the most popular films from the year it was released.
Disney favorite Dick Van Dyke stars as Robin Crusoe a navy …
Lucky People Center International movie
A swedish documentary that focuses on a lot of things. Mainly it is a film about the human injustice of the world as it looks today, but it is also very philosophical and makes the viewer think about life as a whole. However, it isn’t what the film is …
The Time Traveler’s Wife movie
The Time Traveler’s Wife is probably going to be liked more by women than by men. I thought it was okay but was hard to follow. I would have enjoyed it more if I had not spent theater prices to see it and should have just waited until it …
Constantine (2005)
This movie is quite disappointing. It really leads human thinking to nowhere. It’s simple as this, if you’re not for heaven, you go to hell. There are only two destinations. But this movie gives an exception to one man. There is no such thing …
The Speckled Band
I am reviewing The Speckled Band, a Sherlock Holmes adventure from the boxed set, The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes, produced in 1983 by Granada Television. In this episode, Holmes is employed by a Miss Stoner, who is frightened for her life. Her sister and she had lived with …
Pet Semetary 2
One of the shows which scared me the most when I was younger was the movie “Pet Semetary 2″. I had watched the prequel, “Pet Semetary” when I was about two or three years old and it scared me for many years until I watched the movie again. However, …
Call Me Madam musical
In 1953, Twentieth Century-Fox released the marvelous musical, Call Me Madam with Ethel Merman, Donald O’Connor, and Vera-Ellen. It’s high-powered, high-energy, and high-five fun. I love these kind of innocent musicals where the story is lighthearted and the songs merry. Oh, there’s some heartbreak and drama …
Meet the Spartans (2008)
This movie is a spoof of the Frank Miller’s telling of the tale of the Spartans, the movie known as 300. Basically everything from start to finish about this movie is similar to 300 with the exception of that it’s a pun of the movie. In addition, almost everything …
Resident Evil Apocalypse movie
Resident Evil Apocalypse is the second phase of Andersson’s work, linked to the successful game title Resident Evil.
This sequel, which would have been completely different from the first one, has made a lot of changes, but it remains steryl in the story.
Andersson, in fact, complicates his work introducing the …
“Grindhouse” (2007 double feature)
“Grindhouse” consists of two wildly entertaining films, “Planet Terror,” written and directed by Robert Rodriguez, and “Death Proof,” written and directed by Quentin Tarantino. Both fall into a category that can partially be described as an homage to low-budget exploitation cinema popular in the 1970’s and the kind of …

Children of men
When I first saw the description for Children of Men, I thought it was definitely a unique concept; a man is trying to help the first pregnant woman on the planet in more than 18 years. But, after watching the movie, I have to say the execution wasn’t the …

The movie Anthony Kaun Hai released on 4th of August, 2006. The meaning if the title of the film is Who Is Anthony in English. The movie has been directed by Raj Kaushal. It is a pretty stupid and complicating film. The lead actors of the film are Sanjay …
Happy Feet
I took my 10yr old grandson to see ‘Happy Feet’ during the Christmas holidays. We couldn’t get in to see the movie we wanted to see so settled for that one. Came out clicking our heels. Well, I did. He’s not a kid who likes the turtles or action …
Pride and Prejudice, 2005
I’ve just returned from seeing the new “Pride and Prejudice” (2005, starring Keira Knightley as Elizabeth Bennet and Matthew MacFadyen as Mr. Darcy). What can I say. I didn’t expect much, and therefore wasn’t very disappointed. Keira Knightley is cute (perhaps a little too cute for Elizabeth) and pretty …
Sherlock Holmes’ Dressed to Kill
The very last of the Sherlock Holmes movies to star Basil Rathbone and Nigel Bruce was Sherlock Holmes’ Dressed to Kill. Parts of this story are among my favorite moments. I suppose the actors had these roles so down pat by now that it felt more natural …
Exam (movie)
After watching the movie Exam last night, I can’t help thinking that it was one of the best psychological thrillers that I watched in a long while. This was despite the barely above average rating that it had received on its IMDB page. I think that the rating was …
Carrie (2013 Film)
I was given the opportunity to watch Carrie one evening on Netflix. After hearing so many different things about the movie, I just had to see it for myself. I have to say that in the beginning when first hearing about it, I was skeptical, because there are so …
X - Men 3 (movie)
Last night, my husband and I rented the third X Men movie on demand. I rarely praise movies or feel like they would be good enough to acutally go and see in the theater, but I must admit, I was really impressed with this movie. I think …

In the Name of the King: A Dungeon Siege Tale (2008)
In my view, this movie tries too hard to follow in the footsteps of the Lord of the Ring movies and by doing so it manages to sink its own ship. There are so many things wrong with this movie it is a wonder if ever made it to …
Norbit
When I first watched the movie Norbit, in the theater, I wasn’t really impressed by it. However, after watching it again last night, I have to admit I found it a lot better on DVD.
My biggest objection to Norbit the first time I watched it is I felt it …
Pan’s Labyrinth
When I saw Pan’s Labyrinth, I was expecting a story about a little girl retreating into her elaborate fantasy world. I would have been happy with just that, but Pan’s Labyrinth was so much more.
In the beginning of the movie we are introduced to Ofelia and her mother, who …
Perfect Stranger
I have to say, I was thoroughly impressed by the newly released film “Perfect Stranger” starring Halle Berry and Bruce Willis.
The story of the film is completely enthralling with twists and turns all over the place. It left me unable to move, just waiting for the next sequence of …
The Secret DVD
I’ve studied manifestation for about 15 years and understand basic principles, but The Secret really summed manifestation up. This movie was emotional, funny and introspective. Australian Rhonda Byrne put the movie together after her father died. She read The Science of Getting Rich, which her father left to her. …

Flightplan
I watched Flightplan yesterday shown on the local TV channel and it is so good to see such a good actress Jodie Foster, acting once more.
I know that this was a movie that was shown years back but somehow or rather, it is just so good to be …

The Reaping film
Through this movie, Hilary Swank has reminded audiences once again, that she is one of Hollywood’s greatest Heavy-Hitters. Her acting skills were brilliant. Maybe this is why some of the other cast members appeared as though they needed to step it up a notch? “Who is that blonde little …
