ZA: Zombies Anonymous
OK, I’m a fan of Zombie movies, that’s no secret. So, I decided to give ZA: Zombies Anonymous a try just for the heck of it.

Urban Justice
I personally thought the star of Steven Seagal was fading in the early to mid nineties. It seems as if someone keeps letting him make movies. Not that I mind him making more movies. But like this newest Seagal flick, Urban Justice proves, if you’ve seen one, you’ve seen …

Fright Night movie

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 …
The Comebacks
I don’t ever remember seeing the movie “The Comebacks” advertising to be released in theatres. In fact, thinking about it now I realized I must have, but at the time I probably thought that it was just one of the many sports movie dramas which were being released at …
Movie The Candidate
“What do we do now?”
It’s a simple question, but it’s a chilling one when asked by Bill McKay in The Candidate. McKay is played brilliantly by Robert Redford. He’s a Democratic candidate for the U.S. Senate. He’s idealistic, and he doesn’t believe in making deals. …
My Sassy Girl
What I really like about the movie “My Sassy Girl” is that at the beginning it gives you an impression that it just an average romantic movie; however in the last half hour of this movie things change completely. This movie moves from creating to a happy-go-lucky atmosphere to …
Twilight Movie

Insurgent Movie (2015)
Insurgent, based on the book of the same name by Veronica Roth, is the sequel to 2014’s Divergent. From the trailers shown, I had hopes that the film would be better than the first. However, it ultimately falls short of expectations and represents a step back for the franchise.

Star Wars: Episode 2- Attack of the Clones
Well, I can say one good thing about Attack of the Clones, it was better than The Phantom Menace! (I said that in my sarcastic voice by the way). First off, the relationship between Anakin and Padma is probably one of the worst relationships every put on …
The Dark Knight
I absolutely enjoyed The Dark Knight. I went to the movie thinking that this was just going to be another action packed movie that was ripped from the pages of a comic book, but boy was I wrong. I like the character change they made for Alfred because he …

Wreck-It Ralph, movie (2012)

Drowning Mona
Drowning Mona with Neve Campbell, Casey Affleck, Bette Midler, Danny DeVito, Will Ferrell, and Jamie Lee Curtis.

Sky High is a 2005 move that mixes elements of both the superhero and teen movie genres into an enjoyable, exceptionally fun movie going experience. It’s not the best movie around, and certainly isn’t the best composite of it;s two respective genres, but it is still a very watchable …
