Envy (2004)

Inception (2010 film)
In the 2010s a new director is threatening to steal the whole Hollywood show for himself-this director is quickly getting close to the very top of my list and his name is Cristopher Nolan-a film-maker whose every new film is better than the last one. His last one is …

Tekken (2010) Film
Is the 2010 Tekken movie a proper tribute to the game it was based on? Or will it follow the footsteps of the vast majority of movies based on video games and simply—¦ well, suck?
I gotta say, from the time I saw the trailer, I never expected this …

This is one of my favorite Hal Hartley films. Brave, daring narrative and visual style, an engaging story focused on human dignity and about the coolest soundtrack ever makes this one of Hartley’s prime works, and also places him in the rare group of interesting american filmmakers the last …

We are often at this theatre, as we try to go for a movie night out together once a week. It is a very nice theatre and the location is great, in the heart of New Minas, on the main road, close to shopping and restaurants, and a nice …
Ocean’s Thirteen
Ocean’s Thirteen was one of the most anticipated “threequels” this year. Among a myriad of third instalments, it was one of those that were expected to improve on their predecessors and it delivers well.
The clever and thrilling plot revolves around Danny Ocean’s attempt at avenging senior Ocean member Reuben’s …
Ninotchka
I am a major fan of classic movies and I actually have a big VHS and DVD movie collection. Among those I cherish most is “Ninotchka”, the first motion picture where Greta Garbo laughed. It may not sound extraordinary, but it was, because Garbo was largely known …
Mr Magorium Magical Emporium Movie
I have to say I was not looking forward to seeing this movie. In fact I made my daughter get The Simpson’s Movie because this movie had gotten really bad reviews. I really do not know what movie they watched. This movie was wonderful. It was like Willy …
Friends sitcom
I love Friends! Who doesn’t?? This is the best of the best sitcom ever! The stories are really funny and relates to everyday life of people with friends. This sitcom does not tell about those too rich kids who can’t do nothing without their …
John Wick, Movie
I love revenge movies. They appeal to our baser instincts and when they’re done well they strike us at our emotional core. John Wick is a superb revenge flick that oozes style and menace.
From the outset this film makes its intentions very clear. It is light on dialogue and …
Agatha Christie’s Murder at the Gallop movie
I have to say that the first thing I noticed about this second entry in the movie’s Miss Marple mystery movie by Agatha Christie is the very bright and campy musical theme. It’s just so bubbly and merry that it seems like follows should be more of a …

Tschick (German Movie)
Tschick is a movie directed by director Fatih Akin based on a best-selling Young Adult novel Tschick (translated as Why We Took the Car in English). It’s a shame I cannot find a trailer for the movie with English subtitles even though the film is released with English subtitles. So …

One of the best drama movies I remember watching in the early part of 2012 was the movie named “The Help”. I had expected it to be very good because of the actors that were involved in its making, but I never thought that it would be one of …
Film “The kids are all right” (2010)
I had heard so much about this film. It sounded great and I liked the story, it sounded different from all the same old movies I had seen. I heard an interview with a star on the radio and they played clips and it sounded really interested. …
Justin Bieber, Never Say Never In 3D

Red Velvet (2008 movie)
I love horror movies, so when I saw that this movie was going to be shown on cable, I just had to look into it. I was curious about it, because I love red velvet cake! So it sounded like an intriguing title for a horror movie. Then I …
A Perry Mason Mystery: The Case of the Jealous Jokester movie
When Raymond Burr couldn’t film his role as Perry Mason, several movies for television were produced without him, utilizing other Hollywood stars as A-class lawyers. I really wished they hadn’t done that. It was a waste and a sham. They would have done better to have …
Finding Nemo
First I want to start off by saying that the hype of this movie was a big let down. I got my expectations set to high before I watched this movie I just expected more from it. It was still a very good movie that had a lot of …
The September Issue (2009)
‘The September Issue’ is a feature length, fly-on-the-wall documentary about the making of the September 2007 issue of Vogue Magazine. This would be of interest to anyone wanting to see what the real Anna Wintour is like - editor-in-chief of Vogue - rather than the bitch that Meryl …
Forgetting Sarah Marshall
Forgetting Sarah Marshall is a romantic comedy with an almost universal appeal, simply because it is, at it’s heart, a great movie. The plot isn’t meant to appeal solely to women, or even towards men, as one would expect from a Judd Apatow Production. Instead, it is a movie …
Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince Film (2009)
I grew up reading Harry Potter books in my formative years back in the 90’s. The time when the whole Harry Potter franchise was less frenzied and the books were just lurking somewhere to be discovered. My devotion to the books reached a fanatical stage that I …

50 First Dates

How to Lose Friends and Alienate People
I loved The Devil Wears Prada film largely because Meryl Streep was such a bitch. The good news is How To Lose Friends And Alienate People is written in the same vein only the main character is not Anne Hathaway but a smart talking clumsy writer (Sydney Young) played …
Strictly Sexual Movie
The title ‘Strictly Sexual’ invariably attracts the attention of youngsters and middle-aged people. I also chose to watch this movie, mainly because I am interested in what the movie is about, given the seductive name. However, after I watched it, ‘Strictly Sexual’ is just an ordinary movie with a …

Because of Winn-Dixie (2005 movie)

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1 (2010 film)
I had a pretty good grasp of the significant things that happened in the last book of the harry potter series. Deathly Hallows finally brought closure to the story I have read since grade school. Bluntly speaking, I am an ardent reader and fan of all harry …
Bedtime Stories movie
I’m not as big of an Adam Sandler fan as I used to be. This is mostly because his movies always seem to rehash basically the same plot and some of the films are so terrible I can’t get through 10 minutes.
But, we decided to pick up Bedtime Stories …
The Parent Trap III movie
Since The Parent Trap II worked with viewers, Disney decided to try it again with The Parent Trap III. My argument up front is that to do so, they had to mess with Susan’s story. In PT II, she was happily married. Here, she’s single again. …
The Great Gatsby (movie)
One of the movies that I watched very recently was “The Great Gatsby”. It was the most recent film adaptation of the classical novel bearing a similar name. Up to a couple minutes before I began watching it, I honestly had no idea whether or not I would enjoy …
Easter Parade movie
Easter Parade is a very nice holiday musical with a tip top cast that includes Judy Garland, Fred Astaire, and Peter Lawford. It’s full of good songs, including the title number which is, naturally, the centerpiece of the motion picture.
Oddly, though, I’m not a huge fan of Easter …

Bordertown (R, 2007) movie
I don’t usually like J. Lo in films. But where this movie is concerned, I could easily overlook her mediocre acting skills. This movie follows the political red tape surrounding the investigations of hundreds of Mexican women near the U.S. Border. According to the …
