The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas
The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas is a crazy musical that is raunchy and often inappropriate for the mainstream and yet is funny and delightful to watch. The language is way too much for my tastes, but I choose to grit my way through this movie because I …
A Nightmare on Elm Street (2010): movie
I need to start off by saying that I never saw the original Nightmare on Elm Street, so I have nothing to compare the 2010 remake to. I can’t say which version is better. I approached the Night on Elm Street remake as I would any …
Changeling
You know what, I rented the movie Changeling thinking it was going to be a dull film and it turned out to be one of the better movies I’ve watched this month.
This movie, which stars Angelina Jolie, gives an overview of a little-known mass slaying that took place in …
Batman Begins 2005 Movie
After the terrible versions that came before it, I was frightened that Batman Begins would continue on that downward spiral of failure. I had hopes that it would not because of the amount of time that there was between the two failure films and this one, as well as …
Pet Sematary
Pet Sematary is s very scary movie. I think this is one of Stephen King’s best movies ever made to date. The thing that was scary about this movie was that is had lots of things to do with death and ghosts. I also think that the movie was scary …
Firehouse movie
This review is for a movie called Firehouse, which is not to be confused with Richard Dean Anderson’s Firehouse movie of 25 years later. However, whereas in 1997 it was women having to deal with being accepted, in this 1973 version, it’s African Americans struggling to break in …
Alvin and the Chipmunks (2007)
I have to admit that I’ve had a secret love of Alvin and the Chipmunks since I was a kid. When the movie first came out last year, I was the only one of my friends and family members who could actually sing all the words to their songs …

“The Boy from Mercury” is a touching Irish movie about an 8 year old boy who loses his father and finds himself emotionally estranged from the rest of the family. Nobody seems to understand Harry, no one cares enough to see that his quiet, withdrawn manner is caused by …
Charmed TV Show
Remember the tv show Charmed? This was about three sisters who fought demons and struggled to build personal lives as well. I must admit, this is among my favorite shows. I have almost all of the seasons on DVD and I don’t let anyone in my family touch them …
Pathfinder, Marcus Nispel Movie
Legend of the Savior United States National Indigenous
Hollywood films in the produce many films with genre epic. Perhaps, this is due to see the success achieved some epic film, such as the trilogy Lord of The Rings (2001-2003) original works of the New Zealand director, Peter Jackson. However, …
High Society movie
It’s been a long time since I’ve seen High Society, but the opportunity presented itself again recently, so I gave it a watch. Overall, it’s just a cute and bubbly movie with Grace Kelly putting on airs and Bing Crosby as the down the earth pal who just …
The Shame movie
Perhaps one of Ingmar Bergman’s most underrated film from the late 1960s, as usual by that time with Liv Ullman and Max von Sydow in the leading roles. It’s very uncharacteristic for Bergman as it deals with the atrocities of war, and this loving couple who are slowly driven …
Unleashed (2005)

Wild Hogs
This very hilarious movie, called Wild Hogs, is a box office hit in my country, and I managed to catch it as well.
I laugh my whole way through at the antics of a group of middle-aged friends, who decided to go on a motorcycling trip together. Their antics …
Dude where’s my car?
Dude where’s my car? is a comedy movie starring Ashton Kutcher and Seann William Scott. It is a funny movie and one has to leave the brain behind while watching this movie as one doesn’t find any logic in the movie. But, after all comedy movies often end up …
The movie Alvin and the Chipmunks
I love Alvin and the Chipmunks. I loved the cartoons and I loved the Christmas tapes that I have. I had been wishing that Alvin and the Chipmunks could make a comeback and then all of a sudden BAM! There before me on the television was the trailer for …
Mona Lisa Smile
Julia Roberts stars in this movie where for women, it’s about getting married and not necessarily school. It is an interesting portrait of the paths that different women take, such as marriage, working for a living, no marriage, birth control, etc. If some parts had been cut down …
Bridge To Terabithia movie
This movie reminds me to The Lord Of The Rings movie environment. Interesting special effect and pleased in a real creative story. Merges story in illusive world with reality life. This movie draws fantasy world by a child names Jesse. Illusion nature that is of course we usually experienced …

I saw this movie Live Free or Die Hard a couple weeks ago with my husband. He is into action movies and i usually don’t like them all that well but i decided to go with him. I loved this movie right from the start. It was full of …
After the Sunset
I don’t hear much about this movie, so I assume it didn’t get much attention when it was released and not many people know about it. In fact, I can remember when I first saw it being aired on a cable television movie channel, I wondered how come I …
An American Haunting Movie
I don’t if anyone has seen the movie the An American Haunting but, if you have then either A. you were confused as I was or B. fell a sleep! I did both these options not because I wanted to only for the reason the movie seemed to just …
Movie My First Wedding
“My First Wedding” is a beautiful romantic comedy about marriage and getting cold feet. The true assist of this movie are the brilliant actors in the main roles, Rachel Leigh Cook and Kenny Doughty.
Most people may remember Leigh Cook from her part in “She’s All That” and the …
Shame (movie)
Ever since I’ve discovered his movies, the actor Michael Fassebender has become not one of my favourite, but one of the actors who I’ve found to be most interesting. I believe that this especially stemmed from when I saw him in X-Men Origns as a young Magneto. I was …
Happy Feet Movie
I had heard this so much about this small penguin and having in my brain the popular saying “where there are a lot of cherries hold a small basket”, I was little circumspect with the particular animation movie. Also, I believed that after “Searching for Nemo” hardly another animation …
Sexy Beast movie
This ‘Sexy Beast’ movie was recommended to me by a friend who usually has good taste in films. He was right, I really loved it. Gangster films are not usually my thing but I thought this film was really special and can only partially be classed as …
Legally Blonde
In “Legally Blonde” played by Elle Woods (Reese Witherspoon), the dumb blonde stereotype is exposed and explored, while the film always try to dismantle some blonde misperceptions.

Sex and Death 101 DVD Movie
Alright, before you get too skeptical about the DVD title movie, Sex and Death 101, let me tell you that this movie is actually pretty harmless, minus all the ‘racy’ scenes, which I’m not interested at all. I just love the comedic storyline and here is it.
Simon Baker …
Nature vs. Nurture
Originality is not one of the strong suits of the minds behind Tripping the Rift. The show is on the whole of it nothing more than a fairly uninspired riff on everything that has come to be considered part of science fiction over the last 100 or so …
Iron Man 2 (2010 Film)
After watching the first “Iron Man”, I knew that I would have to watch the second one, which came out in 2010. “Iron Man 2” was not only as well acted and plotted out as the first one, but delivered an even more powerful character conflict and a very …
Japanese Anime - Death Note
Calling all anime fans! If you haven’t watched the anime series Death Note (aka: Desu Noto), you need to put down what you’re doing & start watching! Having been an anime fan for years, I would say that this series really topped my list of best anime’s …

Annabelle, horror movie (2014)
I was one of the many The Conjuring fans who had bought their Annabelle tickets a week before the show times. With a group of friends rushing to the theater where this supposedly horror-movie-of-the-year would be playing I was nothing less than thrilled. Needless to say the emotions …
Enemy of the State
As far as Will Smith movies go, they are usually some of the better action films out there. One of his first ones, Enemy of the State, falls into this category.
In Enemy of the State, Smith plays an average American who is turned into the nation’s most wanted man …
The Simpson’s Movie
The Simpson’s is one of the most hilarious TV show that I have ever watched in my life. The entire show ,their characters are just too funny. When I heard that their movie was going to be out,I made it a point to get tickets for the first day …

Now that the foundation has been laid for the plot of the movie, where did it go …
B-Movie Classic: The Evil Dead
Way before the Spider-Man movies ever existed, director Sam Raimi made a film called The Evil Dead. This film, in no way, is a blockbuster hit. Evil Dead is a classic bad movie, which was meant to scare, yet at the same time, humor.
The movie stars a young man …
I Walked with a Zombie movie
Another classic horror film, made back in the 1930s. Very subtle horror is it doesn’t really contain any violence or monsters. A woman travels to Jamaica where she learns of the strange culture called voodoo - the ability to control people using a puppet.
This woman experiences the most remarkable …
The Hanged Man movie
Steve Forrest wasn’t a favorite actor of mine, but he did do several movies and TV shows that I liked, which balanced all the performances I didn’t like of his. This movie, The Hanged Man from 1974, is somewhat in the middle.
If you didn’t know it, the film …

Anime movie about a teenage girl who saves the life of a cat that starts talking to her, something that changes her life completely.
The film was produced by the famous studio Ghibli where Hayao Miyazaki is producing his films. However, this is not near the same class his his …
Clueless
Clueless, a hit movie about teenagers more than a decade ago, was one of my favorite movies as a teenager. This movie was shown at a perfect timing for me as a teenager myself during the 90’s. Its main character, Cher, played by Alicia Siverstone, could be a good …
Eat, Pray, Love Movie
Pretty good movie based on a decent book.
I enjoyed this movie more than I expected to. Julia Roberts isn’t my favorite actor, although I think in the case of Liz Gilbert, she was probably the best choice. I also enjoyed the movie more than I did the …

The Wayward Bus movie
From 1957, The Wayward Bus is a quiet movie that I love a lot. Based on the John Steinbeck novel, it’s essentially about a group of passengers traveling on a small and very old bus. Thanks to Mother Nature, their travel is interrupted, and that makes a …
Sherlock holmes movie
A few days ago I saw Sherlock Holmes in the cinema.
Sherlock Holmes in the old books and the stories were really a thinking man, and not so violent!
But in this movie he is. I have not read the books, so I can not say anything about it.
The movie was …
