Man on Fire (2004) Movie
The 2004 version of ‘Man on Fire’ is a cracking film which, although it contains a hell of a lot of action and violence, is far from your average one-dimensional action flick. Starring one of my favourite actors, Denzel Washington, as ex-CIA assassin ‘Creasy’ who initially has no …
OMEN movie
The Omen came out on theaters 6.6.06

The Wolverine (2013 film)
I decided to watch the Wolverine one evening after hearing so many things about it. Initially I was late on finding out that there was going to be a new movie featuring the wolverine. To be honest, I don’t remember hearing anything about up it until a couple of …
Cry Wolf Movie
A predictable horror story for kids who don’t read good books and therefore have poor taste, easily satisfied with some action & easy scares. A body is found near a school, and a bunch of high-schoolers decide to pull a prank by creating an online serial killer personality. They …
Munich (2005) movie

The Deserter movie
Another silent montage film by the perhaps most appreciated director that worked with the style, next to Eisenstein - Vsevolod Pudovkin.
Looking through all of his work, I have to say Pudovkin’s films have aged a lot better than Eisenstein. While Eisenstein did all he could to make the films …
Dirty Dancing
Dirty Dancing is one of those movies that people either love or don’t care for at all. I’m definitely one of the former people, which explains why I now own three copies of the movie on DVD. When I was looking through the racks of a local store and …

Batman 1966 Movie
With all of the different versions of Batman in the past, the present, and the future, there are very few if any who can truly compare to the Batman that Adam West created in the 60s. His Batman was more unique and personal then I think any other Batman …
Tower Heist (2011 movie)
This a 2011 movie but I watched it with my friends just recently this year. It went for approximately 1 hour and 50 minutes. Originally I wanted to watch MI4, but after watching Tower Heist I know that I made the right decision to watch it.
Although it wasn’t …
Prince of Persia (the movie)
I just watch the Prince of Persia movie with my friends in a cinema near my office. Expecting a great movie, especially because prince of persia already well known for the games and they also has a lot of commercial in the television. I feel so sure that this …
Transformers
When I first learned they were coming out with a live-action Transformers movie, my first thought was �Well, there�s another 80s TV show being ruined.�
From the previews, it looked like one of those films that would rely heavily on special effects and not offer much in terms of plot. …
The Good Shepherd (2006)
“The Good Shepherd” is a sobering and rather depressing depiction of the early days of the secret government agency that eventually became the CIA. Matt Damon plays the role of Edward Wilson, a very morose young man with an idealistic desire to serve his country. He gets …
Traitor, spy thriller film
Traitor came out and was hoping to bank off of the success of other films. It didn’t work too well but can the video release at least shed some life on Don Cheadle’s action movie?
Samir Horn (Don Cheadle) sells weapons to terrorists. When a sale in Yemin goes …
Movie Ever After
At first, i was hesitant to watch this kind of movie. I was thinking that it was just an ordinary cinderella story that i had known since i was a kid. Until one day, my siblings are watching “Ever After” and i have no choice but to …
Kill Your Darlings (2013 Biographical Drama Movie)
It seems I waited an age to watch the movie Kill Your Darlings. I ignored it a bunch of times while it was being aired on cable television channels because I always had this notion that it wouldn’t be very interesting. It was only after watching it last night, that …
Movie: Unknown
I have just watched the movie UNKNOWN starring Liam Neeson, as it is just showing here in the Philippines this week. As for the title, I don’t know, at first I thought it’s going to be some kind of alien stuff or some unknown territory like Mars or …
Johnny Dangerously movie
An honest and decent man is forced into criminality when his mother is having a severe disease, and he sees no other way out.
This is supposed to be some kind of comedy, but with the exceptions of a few scenes where Michael Keaton is absolutely brilliant, I didn’t think …
Sunset Boulevard (1950) Movie
I love this classic old black and white movie and watch it every time it comes on TV. Directed by Billy Wilder (who also directed the fabulous Some Like it Hot amongst others), it tells the story of fictional silent movie star, Norma Desmond - played very melodramatically …

28 Weeks Later, science fiction horror film

The Girl Gets Moe
At first I didn’t think the movie “The Girl Gets Moe” was very popular since I did a search for it online to see what people were saying in their reviews about it, and I only found a few results, but then I realised that it also goes by …

King of The Hill
King of the Hill is one of my favorite cartoons. The shows has great voice acting and great plots. I really love each character in their own way. One thing I like about the show is the intro music. The music gets you excited and ready for the show.
The …
Spirited Away

Movie “Salt” (2010)

The Empire Strikes Back
The Empire Strikes Back(1980) directed by Irvin Kershner and produced by George Lucas is an example of one of the finest science fiction films made in the 1980s and of any era. Due to the fact that the other films were released, they all did something which was quite …
Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles - Episode 1.2: Gnothi Seauton
Well, to my discovery, it seems that this TV show follows an alternate timeline after “Terminator 2: Judgment Day” and has nothing to do with “Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines” (even though “Terminator: Salvation” does). That’s good and bad in my opinion, but that’s a whole other story …

Sgt. Bilko
When Steve Martin re-did the Pink Panther movie, I thought his performance was actually better than the original. But, that wasn’t the only movie I can say that about.
When I was younger, I remember watching re-runs of the Phil Silvers Show and his character Sgt. Bilko. In the movie …
Alibi.com movie
French comedies are always a great choice, if you want to watch something light, something funny, yet not something dumb. I watched a ton of those and I think I can distinguish a good comedy from a bad one and this Alibi.com is a pretty good movie to watch on …
Pulse (movie)
I sat down and watched this movie with my whole family. Overall it was a pretty good movie. It was original and unique, not like a lot of other movies out today. It had it’s own storyline to it. There was hardly any gory parts in the movie, if …

Anyone who’s seen Ted (2012), knows how hilarious a vulgar, talking teddy bear can be. Ted 2 delivers on the expectations set by Ted, but with less of a story and more focus on humour.

A Smoky Mountain Christmas movie

In the smoky mountains, Lorna Davis (Parton) discovers a group of children …
Spread the Movie
This is most definitely not a romance movie. This movie is essentially the story of a young guy living in LA and getting by on his looks alone, until he finds love i guess. Ashton is essentially plays a pool boy role minus the pool. And Anne is the …
Love Affair movie
This 1939 film called Love Affair is considered a classic romantic piece, and it’s beloved by a lot of people, but I’m not really one of them. I just have so many moralistic problems with the piece in various forms. Part of it is the lack of …
Freaky Friday movie
Upon seeing the trailer of Freaky Friday I was already laughing my head off so I decided that I would watch the movie. I’m sure glad I did because the movie was worth every penny. I can’t remember the last time I laughed this hard. Freaky Friday is a …
Movie Waterworld
For some reason, my husband loves “Waterworld.” I love my husband, but I loathe and detest this film.
It’s hard to believe that this 1975 cinematic “messterpiece” was one of the most expensive movies ever made. Maybe they spent a lot of the money on the sets …
