It has been ages since I’ve seen the movie Loaded Weapon 1. And, I have to say, I had completely forgotten just how funny this movie was.

Made in 1995, this animated film features the vocal talents of Kevin Bacon, Bridget Fonda, and Bob Hoskins, among others. It’s also based on a true story, very loosely based on a true story mind you.

I recently watched “Transformers”, the new live action and computer animated flick based on the cartoon from the mid 1980’s. Wow.

I was excited about what to expect of this movie from the moment I heard the name, and I already had some expectations and predictions …

When this movie came out I really thought it was so low-budget and too corny. I didn’t know the director, I didn’t know the main cast, and I didn’t know what the point of the movie was all about. The trailer didn’t show anything much and the posters were …

Director- Farhan Akthar

I watched this IMAX movie, called Encounter in the 3rd Dimension, with my boyfriend, and it was the darndest thing I’ve ever been to. Now, don’t get me wrong about the movie, though short, (but isn’t all IMAX movies supposed to be). I was fed up with …
