You will probably recognize her as Juno’s hyper teenage BFF. But Olivia Thirlby proves otherwise in this 2006 thriller called “The Secret.” The DVD cover art may throw you off. You may think that this is some seedy Lolita movie in which the teen wraps …

I just watched this movie recently, and from the looks of it, I do not think I will ever watch it again. Honestly, I thought it was a bankable film because it starred George Clooney and so far, I have been quite satisfied with his films, until I …

“The Wedding Singer” is definitely one of the movies mostly related to Adam Sandler. Personally I was very much looked forward to watch this movie after I saw the trailer, however in the end it failed to reach my expectations. I expected a funnier Adam Sandler like in the …

This film failed in comparison to the two previous films. Not only did it fail to live up to the other two it introduces a female Terminator with limited technological advancement. The T-1000 of Judgement Day was the best of all Terminators. The conclusion to the trilogy left viewers …

For superhero lover, Joker isn’t a newbie. He’s arrogant, scary yet frightening. And he’s brilliant though. There are several actor who had played this role in the movie. But comparing all of those actors, the best one for me is the last Joker in Batman’s movie, The Dark Knight, …

A Handful of Dust, 1988, is a period movie set in the 1930s, based on a novel by Evelyn Waugh. Waugh, who is actually a “he,” was dealing with his wife’s affair and a pending divorce when he wrote this book, so the story reflects his feelings about infidelity …

The Uninvited is yet another film in a long line of Hollywood remakes that were originally Japanese horror movies. A lot of these remakes have received a bad rap in the past but apart from a couple, in general I really enjoy them.
The pacing of this movie is …

The first time I heard of the animated movie “A Troll in Central Park” was some time after it was released in the nineteen nineties. I was not a child any more at the time so I did not have much interest in it and I thoguht it was …

Matthew McConaughey and Kate Hudson aren’t really big Hollywood stars that’s why when a friend asked me to go to the movies with her and watch How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days, I wasn’t really very excited. I don’t like Matthew that much (his blond looks isn’t …

The first Twilight movie sucked big time and there are so many reasons as to why this movie was just plain awful and the first reason would be the actors, because the actors who played ion Twilight really did a very bad job and didn’t bring any of the …

I had been looking forward to watch this movie ever since I had seen its trailer for the first time. The movie has been promoted as a movie for everyone, because we all belong to the nature and we should love it. This is one of the most shocking …

A lot of biopics (or movies about real people) are made about successful people who did amazing jobs in their respective fields. I can’t think of many films that do the opposite until The Disaster Artist. A movie about director Tommy Wiseau who made the worst (as some would say) …

Robert Zemeckis, John Malkovich, Angelina Jolie, Anthony Hopkins, Ray Winstone. A pantheon of names builds this incredibly well recreated story of Beowulf based on the Norse legend of the same name. The movie grabbed me from the first moment at the sight of the decrepit and tired Hrothgar (Anthony …

From 1968, Speedway combines the talents of Elvis Presley and Nancy Sinatra. Okay, it’s a so-so plot and we’ve seen it a thousand times, and the characters are stereotyped and not particularly that ‘wow-some’. I don’t think there’s any way you can say that either performer had …

I would have to say that Cabin Fever is one of my most favorite horror movies. You might think that it is crazy that I say that, but i have a reason for saying that.
the theme of the movie is a flesh eating disease that is responsible …

This 1986 movie, Blue Velvet, was my first introduction to the fantastic director David Lynch. A friend recommended I get this out on video (yes, it was a long time ago!) and by the end of it I was turned upside down and sitting there in shock and …

The Hurt Locker is a film that I expected with great interest not only because of the quantity of praise given to it but also because it was the first film in a long while that was addressing the Iraq war. Kathryn Bigelow, world’s first female …

Probably one of the most famous films of all time Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs was one of the most iconic films ever made. Now a true Disney classic , Snow White is a movie that has lived on in the hearts of women everywhere. I personally …

The Death and Life of Bobby Z is a mediocre movie which has it’s good points and bad points. The initial scenes of the movie are very appealing and interesting and one thinks that we are going to watch a good movie after the initial scenes. But what we …

Perry Mason: The Case of the Skin-Deep Scandal stars Raymond Burr as the famous attorney, Perry Mason. I liked the guest cast, but somehow the story didn’t pull me in like the major of Perry Mason cases have done.
It begins with a powerful, manipulative woman played by Morgan …

Terminator 4 had lot of loud noises, cool sound effects and no redeeming quality whatsoever. This movie was one of the worst of 2009. Terminator Salvation, aka Terminator 4 was even more predicable that the third in the series. I am a big fan of Christian Bale, …

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 …

Well Keanu Reeves is back again and I have to say he seems exactly the same. His acting skills being minimal but I try to get past that to watch the movie. The story for me was really complicated so I am just going to try and lay out …

Lake Mungo is one of the AfterDark Horrorfest movies of 20–. I usually find these are better than the standard B horror movies so when they came out on DVD, I put the whole set on my Netflix list. This Australian movie was made as a “mockumentary” about …

John Q has been a favourite of mine for years; it is a great demonstration of how you can combine family drama and a little bit of action thrown in too.

I love end-of-the-world type cinema …

This movie is one of my favorite. Any person that enjoys the movies about bank robbery and hacking type of movies will truly love this film. I have always enjoyed gambling and like many individuals have tried to beat the casinos by trying many different systems. This movie tells …

There was too much gossip and too much type before this movie was even screened and I didn’t really like these type of movies as I don’t like all those Qi stuff, but I still watched this as I would always give something the benefit of the doubt and …

I’ve recently taken up going through some of my friend’s cheesy horror DVDs and this was one of those he had on one labeled “After Dark Horrorfest 2009″. Despite the fact that this was the best movie out of all the movies in that collection, I still think the …

I don’t think I’ve ever felt so uncomfortable and so gripped by a movie as I did in the first hour of Peter Jackson’s The Lovely Bones. Considering I pretty much knew what was going to happen, I’d say Mr. Jackson should get all the credit he deserves.
Truly a …

A british comedy that stars the likes of Mos Def, Martin Freeman, Zooey Deschanel, John Malkovich, Bill Nighy, Sam Rockwell and the voice of Alan Rickman as a melodramatic robot.

I got a longer lunch today than normal (to avoid working overtime) and ended up being able to watch a movie on TV. I came across the film the Comebacks, which I had seen before but, since I couldn’t remember much about it, couldn’t remember if I liked it …

This movie focuses around Jack Nicholson’s character, Melvin, who is an obsessive compulsive, rude, inconsiderate human being with many other problems. His neighbor is Simon, played by Greg Kinnear, a …
