The Bible … In the Beginning is a huge John Huston epic that tells the story of the Book of Genesis from the Bible. It’s not without its controversy, however, primarily with the opening Garden of Eden sequence in which male and female nudity is shown. That …
“Men who hate women” movie
Adaptation of Swedish bestseller “Men who hate women” is not broke novel, however, deserves appreciation. The film was recorded in a typical Scandinavian type of cinema - a cool and stiff. Very different from Hollywood, to which we are accustomed. The actors are playing, and do not just look …

High School Musical movie
Disney Channel created a sensation with High School Musical in 2006. It has spawned two sequels, but I hadn’t even seen the original until last night. Of course, I’m not of current high school generation, so I’m not their target audience anyway.
That said, I chuckled at the …

Trust The Man
“Trust The Man” had to be all about the actress, Julianne Moore because, at the time, she was the one mostly known in Hollywood. Apart from this, the director and scriptwriter of this movie is Moore’s husband, Bart Freundlich. I must admit that the actor that truly steals the …

Rat Race Movie
What can be said about Rat Race other than very hilarious. It had to be with actors/actresses like John Cleese, Rowan Atkinson, Whoopi Goldberg, Jon Lovitz, Cuba Gooding Jr. and Seth Green. What is with the men in the board-room, they seem to bet on any and everything…I guess …

Motel Hell (1980) movie
Starring: Rory Calhoun, Paul Linke, Nancy Parsons, Nina Axelrod, and Wolfman Jack.

The villains who run ‘Motel Hell’ must be related to the family depicted in “The Texas Chain Saw Massacre” which this film parodies quite often. In fact, “Motel Hell” parodies a whole list of modern …
Eat, Pray, Love (The Movie)
I watched this movie last weekend and I have to say that I didn’t like it much. The plot was not strong enough and not developed well enough to justify the lessons that Liz Gilbert was imparting in the movie. It did not evoke any feeling, and …

Transcendence (science fiction movie)

30 Days of Night: Dark Days
I really enjoyed watching the film 30 Days of Night and was excited when I heard that a sequel would soon be coming to the big screen. To what potential readers may find dismaying, I have to say that that 30 Days of Night: Dark Days was unimpressive.
I did …
