Over the Hedge
I spent some time thinking about how to describe how good the movie Over the Hedge was. The best way I can think of is, it was so good, my 2-year-old actually sat quietly throughout the whole movie.
Centering around a bunch of wild animals having to cope with a …

Movie: “Enchanted” (2007)
“Enchanted” is, in a word, enchanting. I was very impressed at this sweet and charming film; it’s wonderful for the whole family and I believe it will be a classic for years to come.
It starts with a beautifully animated sequence; the lovely (and relentlessly upbeat) Princess Giselle lives in …
Bride Wars Movie
I love this movie! Not only does it feature my favorite gorgeous actresses Anne Hathaway and Kate Hudson, but the story is really unique and cute and every girl can just relate to this one! However I think guys wouldn’t really enjoy watching this as it’s a total 100% …

Into The Wild
Into the Wild is both touching and inspiring. I guess one of the things I remembered most was that it was based on a true story. That makes me feel a bit sorry for the parents, as I have five wonderful children of my own. I can understand how …
A Dog’s Breakfast DVD
The A Dog’s Breakfast DVD is pretty terrific. If you’re a fan of David Hewlett or this movie specifically, I’ll start at the top by saying you’ll want to own this DVD.
A Dog’s Breakfast is a quirky independent film, but it’s an entertaining one as well. It …
The 13th Warrior, Movie
Panned by critics upon release, and still without a Director’s Cut to see the light of day, I think The 13th Warrior is an overlooked gem much deserving of your attention. It was supposed to be an epically scaled historical adventure based on Michael Crichton’s book The Eaters of the …

Sherlock Holmes’ Dressed to Kill
The very last of the Sherlock Holmes movies to star Basil Rathbone and Nigel Bruce was Sherlock Holmes’ Dressed to Kill. Parts of this story are among my favorite moments. I suppose the actors had these roles so down pat by now that it felt more natural …

Sentinal movie
Last night, I watched Sentinal with Keiffer Sutherland and Michael Douglas. Although the movie did not get great reviews, I really liked it. It was action-packed, steamy, mysterious, and it kept me from falling asleep, that’s for sure! I thought that Michael Douglas did a fabulous job …

Never Been Kissed
Never Been Kissed is a pretty good movie. I really liked it. It shows how love can still really be found in this world. I think that Drew barrymore did a very good job of acting. Her acting was just so magical. I really liked the plot and the story …
The Cabin in The Woods Movie
I personally am a sucker for horror movies and usually even before I reach halfway through the movie, I sort of already figured out how things will turn out because quite frankly, every movie that involves a bunch of teenagers who go on vacation in a remote house in …

Superbad (2007)
The movie Superbad was before it came out, and even soon after it came out, an extremely hyped up movie; everyone was talking about it. Now almost nobody even cares about the movie.

The Dark Knight
After hearing how good it was, I finally got around to watching the 2nd Batman movie, “The Dark Knight”. I thought it was well done. It definitely wasn’t just “thrown together” and had plenty of twists and turns to keep me entertained. I think that Christian …
Do The Right Thing movie
This is a film by the talented Spike Lee and in my opinion his best film to date. A film about rascism and prejudice, how the true nature of these issues actually looks like. Spike Lee doesn’t choose his side here. All fractions of a society in america are …
New Robbin Hood In the Movies
My preferred, famous action move tandem, director Ridley Scott and Australian actor (cute) Russell Crowe, are back. And a new version of Robin Hood, too. Being their fifth joint film, is coming just decennium after the smashing hit Gladiator, tremendous success in historic category. It won five Oscars …
12 Monkeys

When I did this, I realized I hadn’t seen it in a while either so it was a bit like watching a brand new movie. And, even after …
I, Robot
This movie is about the future, where there are robots. Will Smith is the main character in the movie. I think he does an amazing job in the movie and wouldn’t have been that good if he wasn’t in it. I really enjoyed watching the movie and it kept …
Lord of the G Strings Femaleship of the String, DVD Softcore Movie
Seduction Cinema made a ton of softcore movies. Maybe they made too many of them. One of the production company’s most popular films is Lord of the G-Strings, a softcore take on the Lord of the Rings trilogy. All of Seduction Cinema’s top players were in this movie in …
Secrets of an Actress movie
I actually enjoyed the opening credits of 1938’s Secrets of an Actress movie, which began by having a woman’s hand unlocking and opening a diary. She turns each page of the diary until the credits reach the end. It was different and unique.
The story itself is one …

“Ramona and Beezus” (2010 Film)
If anyone is familiar with the “Ramona Quimby” novels by Beverly Cleary and feared that the film relating to the novels might not do the book justice, then you have nothing to worry about. Yes, this 2010 film called “Ramona and Beezus” is based from the books, but no …

Bubble Boy (2001 comedy movie)
The 2001 movie “Bubble Boy” might not have gotten a very good rating in a number of places, but it’s one of those movies that I’ve found I can watch multiple times and never get bored of. It might be silly all around, but I still think that it’s funny …

Nim’s Island movie
So, yeah. This movie happened. Don’t. Watch. It. Please. The story is so atrociously terrible and the acting is subpar (other than Jodie Foster, of course.). Please.
Story: So this girl lives on an island in South America with her father who is Gerald Butler, which apparently he does after …
Uncommon Valor movie
In the early 80’s, I remember watching this movie about Marines going on some kind of special meeting. This was one of those movies that used to air a lot on late night television, long before cable came about for most of us. I loved the movie …
27 Dresses
Watching feel good and light story movies does make someone feel better, and often times feel good about themselves. I think 27 Dresses did that to me. Katherine Heigl is wonderful in her role and being the “always” bridesmaids suits her. With all the glamour and stuffs she has …
Electric Company Vol 1
Three cheers for The Children’s Television Workshop! They have released a boxed set of complete, unedited episodes selected from the 5 year run of this brilliant children’s television series.

My little village movie
Czech comedy with a lot of seriousness to it from the 80s. The film was directed by a man called Jiri Menzel, and involves a number of different people in a small Czech village. It really has no real point to it, only everyday events are depicted, and that …
