Perfect Nanny movie
I watched Perfect Nanny the other day on Lifetime movie network. They had a event going on called “the perfect sunday”. The main actress in this movie did a wonderful job, I think she played her part very well. She did an amazing job playing the “crazy nanny”. This …
The Movie Hercules
I can remember when this movie came out. It was supposed to be really funny and a great movie for kids of all ages. Well, not only was it not all that funny, but it was centered more towatds boys between 8-10 years old.
I was definetely not impressed …
Lets Be Cops (movie)
I’m one of those people who strongly believe that it is possible to tell when a movie is not going to be very good. Therefore, when I saw the trailer for the movie “Lets Be Cops” for the first time, I knew it was going to be one of …
E.T. The Extra Terrestrial (1982) movie
Starring: Henry Thomas, Dee Wallace, Robert MacNaughton, Drew Barrymore, and Peter Coyote.

If it weren’t for “E.T. The Extra Terrestrial”, alien movies with heart would have never existed. “E.T.” is about a young boy named Elliot (Thomas) who is quite lonely until he meets a friendly alien …
The Hurt Locker
Prior to bagging the best picture trophy, this was not one of my favorites. I was rooting for The Blind Side or Precious for the Best Picture in this year’s Academy Awards.
The story revolves around the lives of William James who heads the US Army Explosive Disposal …
Invictus: Movie
I thought that Invictus was a good, well-made film but had it not been based on true events, I’m not sure I would have been interested.
Rugby is not a sport that I have any real interest in, but the history that this film shows I feel was important. Nelson …

‘Jonestown The Life and Death of Peoples Temple’ is a fascinating documentary attempting to investigate the phenomenon of Rev. Jim Jones. The film describes the history of the cult and its infamous leader focusing on the final tragedy one of the largest mass suicide in …

Upcominghorrormovies.com remains a really cool news site for horror movies facing impending release on DVD, cable and, of course, the theaters. While the information presented on this site is somewhat condensed, it does provide clear and accurate information on films that we are all waiting for. Also, the …
I know who killed me
I like Lindsay Lohan, that’s why I decided to watch this movie. Drama? Thriller? Comedy? Mistery? I don’t really know what to call this movie’s genre. It’s about a girl missing, abducted by a serial killer, and instead the found the missing identical …
Dark Ride (R, 2006)
Again, we have yet another slasher film that attempts to “defy” stereotypes that have existed in the past. Ok, well—perhaps the writers and directors weren’t really trying to defy anything. In fact, this type of movie has been done over and over and over and …
Boogie Nights the movie
This has to be one of the worst movies in history and I am not a fan of boogie nights at all and never have been and never will be and this movie was just a disaster right from the beginning all the way to the end. Seriously mark …
A pilot’s wife movie
I watched “The pilot’s wife” today on lifetime movie network. Overall it was a pretty good movie. It could have been better but overall it was pretty good. I would recommend watching it, but if you have a better movie then I would watch that instead. This girl who …
The Unborn (2009 horror film)
The Unborn is a horror film that I watched one evening after running across the title on the internet movie database. I was interested, even though the description of the film is brief and leaves much to the imagination.
The unborn sounded like it was going to be the spooky …
Hills Have Eyes, The (2006)
The Hills Have Eyes takes place in the middle of the desert in the Western United States. It stars Aaron Stanford and is a very exciting film.
The story behind the Hills Have Eyes is very interesting. Back when nuclear bombs were being tested in the deserts of the United …
Seven Pounds DVD
I rented the DVD ‘Seven Pounds,’ starring Will Smith and Rosario Dawson, fully expecting to see a romantic, heart warming story, much in the same genre as ‘Pursuit of Happyness;’ instead, I found it to be a mostly dark and agonizing tale, and even slightly creepy.
I do have to …
Those Magnificent Men In Their Flying Machines
Everyone has a rainy day movie, one that they like to watch when the weather outside is gray. You just warm yourself up a mug of hot cocoa, with marshmallows, stay in your pajamas, put up your feet, and enjoy the next couple of hours. For me, that movie …
Peacock (Movie 2010)
John Skillpa has been living alone inside his home for over a year. Everyone in the neighborhood thought so. But is he really alone in that house? Or was he hiding someone else?
Cillian Murphy (John Skillpa) scares us with a very bizzare behavior. Everyday, before the clock strikes 8 o’clock …
Good Against Evil movie
Good Against Evil, a 1977 movie, was apparently a pilot for a TV series which didn’t sell. I’m not surprised, to be honest. Unfortunately, this also means that there is no ending really to the picture. That’s because the catalyst for the action had to be …
There Goes the Neighborhood movie
A man who works at a prison finds out there is money hidden underneath a certain house and sets out the retrieve it. He faces a big problem when the woman currently living in the house proves to be a man-hater and won’t let him in.
This was supposed to …
Movie Mirrors
Starring: Keifer Sutherland (Ben Carson), Paula Patton (Amy Carson), Cameron Boyce (Michael Carson), Erica Gluck (Daisy Carson), Amy Smart (Angela Carson), Mary Beth Peil (Anna Esseker)
This movie follows roughly the storyline of a Korean movie that I’ve seen 2 or 3 years back (Into the Mirror). …
High Voltage movie
From 1929, a real oldie, High Voltage features Carole Lombard, whose career was cut much to short by a tragic plane crash many years after this early movie of hers was released. Basically, a bus carrying a couple of woman to prison gets stranded out in a snowstorm …
The Devil Probably movie
A late film by french influential filmmaker Robert Bresson, who is very much appreciated among film interested people. This is none of his better films, but it does fulfill his stylistic way of creating cinema. Bresson invented a minimalistic way of making film, with almost no music or dialogue; …
Pirates of the Caribbean: At World’s End (2007)
With the previous entry in the series (Dead Man’s Chest) boasting a controversial cliffhanger of an ending, fans who saw Dead Man’s Chest were no doubt clamoring for the epic finale to the trilogy after walking out of the theater one year ago. Indeed, for me it was a …
The Immigrant movie
Charlie Chaplin plays an honest man who immigrates to America. As soon as he reaches the new country he runs in to trouble immedietly.
I think this is one of Chaplin’s most underrated short films. The story has a nearly perfect balance between hysterical physical humour and social criticism, and …
King Kong Movie
Newness, Love, Adventure, Thriller, a comedy and more. King Kong has a newness to an old flick with dinosaurs and all sorts of prehistoric animals.
Not the kind of love between a man and a woman…. OF COURSE NOT!!! But pretty darn close, meaning….. adoremement, respect, compassion and loyalty. …
Project X (movie)
“Project X” is one of the most exciting movies I’ve watched since the beginning of the summer. Funny enough, even though I’ve been more interested in action movies, this is more along the lines of teenage and college humour. In fact, the movie was actually one of those teen …
FLCL
The anime series “FLCL,” short for “Fooly Cooly” or “Furi Kuri,” is an artistic amazement. The storyline is a little unclear, being a
three-way battle between main characters, but deliciously abstract and humorous. The plot’s hyperactive pace, and features that catagorize the series as anything from comedy, drama, romance, sci-fi …
Avatar - 2009 Movie
I really enjoyed this movie. I found Avatar to definitely be worth the price of admission (we saw it in IMAX 3-d, so it cost more than the usual steep movie price).
I know that the story was rather slim - in fact, everyone knew what was going to happen …
Original Sin movie
British dramas aren’t the easiest for me to watch. I’ve tried off and on, but they have their cultural slant that this American reviewer often just doesn’t get. The biggest thing for me is still trying to understand the lingo and sometimes just the spoken words. …
Fright Night
It’s sometimes amazing how you can watch a movie when you�re younger and think it�s scary but, when you watch the same movie several years later, you aren’t frightened at all.
The movie Fright Night is like this.
When I first watched Fright Night, I was a pre-teen and I thought …

Crocodile hunting is now illegal in Australia and as it is, Mick Dundee is now forced to subject himself to performing live crocodile wrestling show for the tourist that come to his neck of the woods. When news about a job opening falls in the lap of his wife …
MosquitoMan (2004)
This movie was much better than I expected it to be. Don’t let the corny name or the image on the DVD case’s cover stop you from watching this fun horror film. And if you’re thinking it’s a bit similar to “The Fly”, you’re right. It’s a more modern …
The Happening movie
Not very many movies can make me cover my eyes, but The Happening definitely did just that. This M. Night Shyamalan movie didn’t scare me per say, but it put me on the edge of my seat for the entire movie. Most of the …
Double Indemnity Movie
Double Indemnity is the story of an insurance salesman who tries to use the actions of a beautiful woman to receive death insurance from her husband by killing him. Fred MacMurray and Barbara Stanwick play the leading roles in this chilling noir film by Billy Wilder, originally a novel …
Ocean’s Thirteen
I am a big fan of the Ocean’s movies. I loved the first one, thought twelve was ok at best. I believe Ocean’s Thirteen is a return to form for the Ocean’s movies. The things I didn’t like about Twelve are fixed in this movie. …
Half a dozen babies
This was an alright movie overall. I found it to be a little funny if anything. I didn’t really care for it all that much. It’s kind of a chick movie. It’s about this couple that want to have babies and they can’t seem to get pregnant, well they …

Transformers 3: Dark of the Moon, Movie
By all accounts, ‘Revenge of the Fallen’ should have marked the end of the live action ‘Transformers’ franchise. That movie was outright terrible. Critics hated, fans hated it, it still stands as one of the worst movies you will ever have the displeasure of sitting through. …
Memory Movie
Memory has to be the most confusing and convoluted movie I have ever seen. I’ve been a big fan of Billy Zane for a number of years, and I’ve followed his career off and on. Since his role in Titanic, the man hasn’t had a lot of success save …
Next Door (UR, 2005) movie
Next Door is one weird film. If you like foreign cinema, you will like this movie. If you like foreign cinema with eroticism and suspense, then you will LOVE this movie. I will confess that I wasn’t sure exactly what was going on at first. …

Turkish Star Wars
This movie is seriously an abomination on film. A lot of bad movies fall into two categories.
The first category is “so bad it’s awesome” these are movies that you know stink to high heaven, but you can laugh at the badness. A lot of the movies …
The Patriot (movie)
Just week we heard the sad news that Heath Ledger passed away, it reminded me of one of the movies that he had starred in with Mel Gibson called the Patriot.
We pulled the Patriot out of our collection and re-watched it last night. The story is set …
