Django Unchained movie
I recently went to the cinema to see Django Unchained - having already seen the trailer, I was quite fascinated by it.

Mamma Mia! movie
From 2008, the movie Mamma Mia! garnered a lot of buzz when it was released. I didn’t see it myself until just recently, however. Part of me wonders if the movie suffers from my ‘too much hype’ syndrome. Back when American Graffitti came out, I didn’t …

Babel - Movie
I went to see Babel not knowing anything about it more than it took place in Morocco and it was “kind of like the movie Crash”. Pretty quickly you can see how the movie is like “Crash” in that there are 4 storylines, seemingly unrelated, that you know somehow …
Serving Sara (movie)
“Serving Sara” is the movie where Liz Hurley and Matthew Perry interpret crazy roles. It is a true pity that this movie failed to impress the critics and went straight to video! I must also add that this movie is also the worst movie for Perry who had successful …
Pirates of the Caribbean 2 - Dead Mans Chest
This had to be one of my favorite movies of all summer. I would have to say it was even better than the first one! Not only was this movie full of suspense and action, but it had a bunch of laughs, whether it be Jack Sparrow running in …
“Nine” the movie 2010
I rented the musical “Nine” because of it’s stars– in particular, Nicole Kidman and Penelope Cruz, two of my favorites. I had seen Kidman in Moulin Rouge so I knew she could pull off a musical. I was a bit disappointed in the film. Now I have to admit, …

I almost didn’t finish this movie when I watched it with my friends in September of 2009. It was just released a few days ago, and so the cinema at Strawberry Hills mall here in Surrey, Canada was filled to the rafters.

The Amazing Spider-Man 2, movie
While I was wary of rebooting the Spider-Man franchise so soon after Sam Raimi’s franchise was launched, I actually rather enjoyed ‘The Amazing Spider-Man’. It had a strong cast and did enough to stand on its own as opposed to just feeling like a carbon copy of the …
License To Wed (2007)
Popular Casts : Robin Williams, Mandy Moore, John Krasinski
Watching this movie really reminds me to “Anger Management” by Jack Nicholson so, for the people who love “Anger Management”, make sure that you watch this movie. To be honest, Robin Williams’ acting is still not better than The Genius Jack …
Film Avatar
The new movie Avatar has been reviewed so many times, with opinions ranging from “masterpiece” to “unoriginal” and “nothing special.” Well, here is my take on it, after watching it in IMAX. The plot may not be very original. My husband said that Avatar reminded him of “Dances with …

I could not miss this second instalment of Madagascar for the world as I had simply loved the first one. I caught this with my cousin and went with a high expectation, especially after the fantastic part 1. After all, the trailers for part 2 was also equally impressive …
War Horse (2011 film)
It’s the time of the year when film companies campaign for their best movies before the Oscars. I looked everywhere in the weekend papers as well as online finding the distracting line ‘for your consideration.’ Although I was not the intended target for those ads, I considered …

I think A Few Good Men is one of the coolest an funniest movies I have ever seen. I really like the acting of Jack Nicholson in this film. The movie A Few Good Men also stars Tom Cruise as well. I think both actors do a wonderful job of …

Rhythm in the Clouds movie
Rhythm in the Clouds from 1937 just did nothing for me in spite of the fact that on the surface it had a story that might normally intrigue me. To be honest, I am not certain why that lure did not happen.
Rhythm in the Clouds starred Patricia Ellis …
Anger Management (movie)
Anger Management is a movie with Adam Sander and Jack Nicholson as Dave and Dr. Rydell, respectively. You might wonder how these two actors play off each other, and I felt they did very well in Anger Management. I like Adam Sandler but really adore Jack Nicholson. Adam Sandler …

Notorious movie
I remember only vaguely the so-called hip-hop wars between the East Coast and the West Coast rap artists in the 1980s and early 1990s, because I listened to only some of the music. I do remember the violence between the two groups, and the gang war that resulted in …

Death Race movie
Discretion: Alot of violence is in this movie, not only blood (and gore in some cases), do not watch this movie if you are not ok with fist to face action, or even face to concrete/metal action. It’s loud, very loud, depending on what theatre you go to, or if …
