Big Daddy
I thought Big Daddy was a pretty good and funny Adam Sandler movie. I think the whole concept of him raising the kid was funny. The movie was not only funny but very touching! One thing I did not like about this movie though was that there were gay scenes …
Gandhi (1982)
I really admired the movie Gandhi (1982) directed by Richard Attenborough. From the boring history books that I read from high school and from classroom discussions that did not give me as much information as I need, the personality that I had been curious about finally came to …
WitchBoard
WitchBoard is a pretty creepy movie. I think this movie is scary and pretty cool. If you are scared of ouija board this movie will give you a reason to fear them more. It’s about a group of friends who mess around with the board one night. The spirit gets …
Cadillac Records (R, 2008)
After hearing the hype about Beyonce being in this movie, I can’t say that I was itching to go see it. With all due respect to Beyonce, her acting abilities have left a little to be desired. In any event, I was surprised to realize that …

Everybody Wants Some!! (2016 Film)
In my quest to find a better than your average film, I stumbled upon Everybody Wants Some!! in a somewhat forced manner. This was the first time I actually watched a film where the subject matter was something I’m not fond about. By the looks of it, the film was …
Encounter in the 3rd Dimension
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 …
Dracula:Dead And Loving It Movie
In this vampire comedy Mel Brooks tells his version of the story of Count Dracula. If you are familiar with the story, you will recognize some names: Mina, her fiancé Jonathan, Dr. Seward, crazy Renfield, and of course Abraham Van Helsing who is played by Mel Brooks himself. I …
One Missed Call
After the ring came out in 2002, quite a few movie producers have tried to copy its success by tweaking the plot a bit.
One Missed Call does this as well. Too bad they don’t do a good enough job at it.
In theory, this should be a scary film. Whenever …
Blood Diamond (2006 film)
We have all heard about Africa, we have seen reports on the news, but we have never experienced it as directly and as strongly from the screen as we do with Edward Zwick’s new visually and emotionally competent epic adventure drama film Blood Diamond.
Danny Archer (Leonardo …

Premonition movie
I went to see premonition a few days ago at Cineworld Cinemas because it looked like a film that has you on the edge of your seat and because i think Sandra Bullock is a good actress.
The film is rated a 12 and lasts for approx 98 minutes.
A happy …

Singin’ in the Rain musical
Singin’ in the Rain is a really good musical from 1952 that continues to thrill audiences all these years later. People remember this movie and the awesome dance sequences staged by star Gene Kelly, who also director along with Stanley Donen. I always think about Patrick Swayze …
The Princess Bride (Rob Reiner, 1987)
If you’ve not seen this film yet - where have you been? Remedy this dire mistake immediately.
Here’s the premise: A young boy is ill in bed, and his Grandpa starts to read him a book. The boy is less than impressed to start:
“Hold it. What is this? Are you …

My husband and I went to see this movie , and we both enjoyed it. It is very fun and entertaining and will keep you guessing until the end. I have to admit I was thinking it was going to be more of a guy movie , but …
Ice Age 3
We got a chance to finally see the movie Ice Age 3 (we were going to see it in the theater, but my wife was too far along in her pregnancy at the time). It was worth the wait.
This third installment of the Ice Age movies wasn’t as good …
Sunshine Cleaning movie
As much as I love Indie movies I rarely check them out in theaters. I tend to wait for them to be released on DVD in case it turns out to be really bad. I’ve heard of Sunshine Cleaning from friends and when it first came out on DVD …

The movie Shrek 2
I liked Shrek the original. I really liked how different it was as far as a animated film. I thought that Donkey was hilarious and I really loved Fiona. She was such a strong female character. So when I saw that there was going to be a sequel I …
Prestige movie
“The Prestige” is a dazzling, entertaining, smart, and mind-blowing film. It is a rare combination of a fun, enjoyable, popcorn movie and a serious, well-done, cinematic film. “The Prestige” sucks you in and doesn’t ever let go. As soon as you see it, …
3000 Miles to Graceland movie
To be honest I am not that big of a action/adventure movie. Being a female I am all about comedy and chick flicks. However, I am a huge Elvis fan and since I had nothing else to do a friend of mine and I went and saw this movie. …
The Kingdom Movie
Not knowing anything about the movie The Kingdom, I added it to my Netflix queue. I figured since it starred Jamie Foxx, Jennifer Garner, and Chris Copper it would probably be a decent movie. Right from the very beginning of the movie it was very action involved. The movie …
Film “The Carriers” (2009)
The opening scene of carriers is a group of young people driving down the road drinking. We find out they are following some sort of code of rules they made up but not why. They soon come upon a car that is stopped and begging for gas. …
A Night at the Museum
“A Night at the Museum” is a great comedy/fantasy movie with the actor, Ben Stiller at his best. I personally like Stiller in the movies “Meet the Fuckers”, “The Heartbreak Kid” and “There is something about Mary”, however I also like him when he does something completely different, just …

Looking at the lives of the Musketeers years after their glory. Aramis (Jeremy Irons) is now a priest, Porthos (Gerard Depardieu) is the fat owner of a brothel, Athos (John Malkovich) is a humble father, and D’Artagnan (Gabriel Byrne) is the captain of the royal guards. In service to …
Letters to Juliet movie
As a guy, it’s hard to admit that I love chick flicks. If the story is really good, I actually really to like a good romance. However, over the years, romantic movies seem to have waned in quality, leaving behind the charm of movies such as Breakfast …
The Hole movie
It was my friend who actually recommended the horror film called “The Hole” to me some time ago. The person didn’t tell me much about it either since I don’t like to be told much about movies before I watch them; but nevertheless, based upon how they described it, …
Dead Like Me: Send in the Clown
There is a brilliant spot in Dead Like Me: Send in the Clown. It’s actually a parody of the TV drama, Hill Street Blues. I recognized what was happening almost immediately. It surrounded Roxy (Jasmine Guy), who is a meter maid on the show. She …
Netflix
I did a free trial from netflix a while ago and I also did it a free trial for my cousin not to long ago. The movies took forever to get to me and her both. They are also a little more money than blockbuster. You also can’t take …
3:10 to Yuma movie

The Orphan
The orphan was a great movie. It was scary suspenseful and surprising. Me and my girlfriend both enjoyed watching it.
The movie starts off with a that wants another child and has just recovered from a miss carage. They decide to go and adopt one.
When they arrive at the adoption …
The Fugitive
This weekend I watched The Fugitive again and was reminded what a great movie it is. I was skeptical when it was being made. I love the TV series, which is television classic, and I was afraid the theatrical movie would detract from it or parody it …
Aronofsky’s Black Swan (2010 film)
With all the campaigns on the internet and coverage from the press, it was impossible to escape the urge to watch the film. It’s awards season and anyone ignorant not to know what “Black Swan” is must be living in a different planet. I didn’t think this …
Movie 2001 Maniacs
I thought this movie was so weird, so gross, and so disturbing. And yet, I couldn’t stop watching it.
In the beginning it’s just creepy. I mean, the town is so weird, anf the people are freakishly happy to see these kids. You pretty much get a bad feeling about …
“Easy A” (2010 Film)
The 2010 comedy, “Easy A” was a teenage centered comedy that reflected some of the problems seen in the “Scarlet Letter”. While some of the problems faced by the chatacters in this film are very exagerated, the principle and message behind them are none the less impacting.
Emma Stone (from …
Stuart Bliss movie
Description
Stuart Bliss is a movie about a guy who has much going for him but hes also going insane.
My Thoughts About Stuart Bliss
The thing that surprises me is how passive Stuart Bliss is about the hallucinations hes having. He doesn’t even hardly mention anything about it to people nor …
Saviour of the Soul movie

A minor Hong Kong action film that didn’t have …
Beauty and The Beast
The “Beauty and The Beast” I am reviewing is the TV series that ran in 1987-1990, not the Disney animation. Those who have watched the series know that it has nothing to do with the classic fairytale: the story is set in modern day New York. Catherine, a beautiful …
Blazing Saddles
Let’s face it. So much of Blazing Saddles is so politically incorrect that you’d need several fingers and toes to count the instances. But I don’t think it is a matter of contention with this film. If you take a step back, I think you’ll find Mel Brooks’ intentions …
Captain Blood, 1935
“Captain Blood” is based on a novel by Rafael Sabatini. Peter Blood (Errol Flynn), an honest British doctor, is accused of treason for treating the wounds of the rebels. To him, a wounded man is a wounded man, no matter what side he is on, and it is the …
13: Game of Death (Movie)
This was actually a pretty good movie and I was surprised that I liked it because I usually don’t like Japanese imports. Technically this one is from Thailand, but I didn’t realize that until I went to change the subtitles on the movie.
The movie is all about this …
Beetlejuice movie
One of my favourite films by Tim Burton, Beetlejuice is a dark, but highly comic little gem with a fantastic little story at its heart complete with a cast of superb performers.
The film follows a newly wedded couple, played by Geena Davis and Alec Baldwin who, shortly after moving …
Twilight: Breaking Dawn Part 2
I myself am not a die-hard Twilight Fan but I have seen the movies and liked them for the most part. However, Twilight: Breaking Dawn Part 2 was not as good as I thought that it would be. I had expected the finale to be similar in grandeur to …
Pet Sematary
This is one scary movie, and no wonder: it’s based on a Stephen King book. Don’t watch it unless you’re a fan of horror films. Also, don’t watch it if you are an animal lover.
A family moves into a house at a remote place in Maine, the husband, the …
Captain Phillips (movie)
One of my top ten movies that I watched this year so far has been the one named “Captain Phillips”. The thing about this movie though was that when I first saw the trailer advertising in late 2013 it didn’t really hold my interest enough for me to think …
Movie Wednesday
Exceptionally good movie that is all I want to say about this one. The debutant director, Neeraj Pandey did very good job by presenting such a thoughtful movie to the Indian film industry. Keeping in mind that this is his first movie, his efforts should be applauded. Everything was …
