Wolf Movie
I love werewolf movies. But, until last night, I had never seen the 1994 film, Wolf.
Well, I finally got a chance to see it and found it really wasn’t worth the wait.
Jack Nicholson is pretty decent as a business man who gets bit by a wolf and starts turning …
The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy (2005)
A british comedy that stars the likes of Mos Def, Martin Freeman, Zooey Deschanel, John Malkovich, Bill Nighy, Sam Rockwell and the voice of Alan Rickman as a melodramatic robot.
It’s a love story/action/drama/mystery/comedy/horror film all rolled up in a nice bundle with a very long name as the title. …
30 Days of Night. A Movie
To be fully honest I cannot stand scary movies, I am a much bigger fan of romantic comedies. However while I maybe a romantic comedy person, my husband is not. He loves scary movie and feels that romantic comedies are really boring. That being said every once in …
Wanted
When the trailers for this movie first came out, I was really confused. I’m a big fan of crazy weird action flicks like the Matrix, but this seemed a little too far fetched; like Hollywood was running out of ideas. But, at the same time, it had Morgan Freeman …
There will be blood
‘There will be blood’ is a good English movie. But it is also rather sad to watch this movie because the movie shows the exploitation of the lower class. Directed by Paul Thomas, the movie is a grim one. The main actor has performed well. It is not possible …
Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith
The 2005 film “Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith” came as a conclusion to an event in movie history, where the story came to an end and left me somehow wanting to know more. The film was not only graphically genius, suspenseful and sad, but it was one that …
Netflix Online
It’s time to put Blockbuster behind us.
Here’s why:
Selection. It doesn’t matter whether you like horror, comedy, romance, or history movies– Netflix has it all.
The price is reasonable. You know how much it costs to rent a movie at your local store, it’s outrageous. If you watch more than four …
Rumor Has It movie
I had doubts when I rented another Jennifer Aniston movie, since she tends to be hit or miss. But, I was very surprised at how funny Rumor Has It was.
Anniston is great as a woman who is on the verge of a breakdown after finding out her family is …
OMEN movie

It is about a couple having a baby, but there really baby dies, so without the wife knowing they adopt another baby. The baby turns out to be the devils son. The husband needs to kill the boy before things get even worse …
Columbo: Grand Deceptions movie
Columbo: Grand Deceptions is not one of the movies I enjoy very much. While Peter Falk is always intriguing and watching him facing off against all the murderers is the joy of the Columbo series, some of the ones that surround the military or politics just don’t work …
“The Children” Vertigo Pictures, 2009
Last night I was invited to a relative’s house to watch a movie. It was “The Children- Vertigo Pictures, 2009.” When I saw the Ghost House logo I silently rolled my eyes and dreaded the inevitable two hours of watching teenagers get killed one by one in an …
Movie The Illusionist
I must admit I am a huge fan of Edward Norton’s films. Every time there is a new movie of his; I simply jump at the opportunity to watch it. His films are simply extraordinary. In “The Illusionist” one can see Norton at his very best. This is definitely …
Movie Mission Impossible
Starring: Tom Cruise (Ethan Hunt), Jon Voight (Jim Phelps), Emmanuelle Beart (Claire Phelps), Henry Czerny (Eugene Kittridge), Ving Rhames (Luther Stickell), Vanessa Redgrave (Max), Jean Reno (Franz Krieger)
I think it would be fun, as the title led me to believe that this was a modern version of the …
The Heart is Deceitful Above All Things (R, 2006)
Those who have become familiar with the acting (and now directing) style of Asia Argento will more than likely love this film. The daughter of Italian film director Dario Argento is known for her stint in the American action cheese puff 2002 film “XXX” (starring Vin Diesel.) …
Masters of Horror Series:Homecoming
Description:
Homecoming is a horror story from the Masters of Horror Series on the Channel Showtime which I really enjoy. Whats cool about the series is every story is totally different with all new characters as well as the surroundings. This story happens to be Horror/Political Satire. The plot is …

Silkwood movie
1983’s Silkwood is a powerful story. It’s also a true story which makes it tremendously poignant and meaningful. It’s also a story with an uncertain ending, even to this day.
This is the story of Karen Silkwood, a young woman who worked at a nuclear plant and realized …
Holy Man -movie

The Distinguished Gentleman (1992)
Eddie Murphy takes on the character role of a con man with a famous name, with a name like Thomas Jefferson Johnson, his name could easily be confused with that of a senator or congressman, and being a con man, he uses this to his advantage when the current …
Dark Mountain movie
1944’s Dark Mountain is a really nice B-motion picture. Certainly, there’s nothing stellar in this less than one hour movie, but the story is entertaining, and I thoroughly enjoyed myself while watching it.
Robert Lowery starred as a forest ranger named Don Bradley. I have no idea who …
I’m with lucy movie
I watched “I’m with Lucy” today on Lifetime movie network. It was better than I thought. At first I wasn’t going to watch it when it came on. I was kind of tired of watching television, but once I saw it on for a few minutes I got interested …
Aquamarine
I watched Aquamarine with my ex boyfriend years back and up till now, if there are any of my young cousins coming, this would be one of their most favorite DVD to watch.
The mermaid is so gorgeous in this movie and acted by Sara Paxton. I really …
Kate and Leopold Movie
This movie came out in 2001 but I just saw it like last week. My boyfriend was sitting at his computer and suggested that we watch this movie since he saw it a while back and really liked it. So we signed on to his Netflix on his Playstation …
She’s The Man comedy
This is one of my favorite comedies. There are a lot of funny parts in it. It is more of a girls movie but I know a couple of guys who enjoyed the movie. It was a great comedy movie. There are a couple of parts where Amanda Bynes …

V for Vendetta is a politically charged action film starring Natalie Portman, John Heard, Stephen Fry, and Stephen Root. Hugo Weaving stars as V, the victim of a grand politically supported medical experiment gone wrong, who becomes a masked vigilante.
Set in England, in …
Megamind animated movie
It’s true that lately I have not seen any comedy or animated films, at least not as I would have liked.
Animation films offer yet unexplored possibilities, mixed genres, the revolution of the main characters, change scenery.
So even if we fundamentally look at about the same kinds of movies, some …
The Net
Up to 1995 we were so used of associating the actress Sandra Bullock to romantic movies. During this year, Bullock decided to show her talents in a different movie that included drama, patios and action. This is what “The Net” is all about.
The story of this movie is about …
Movie: Elf
The family is in bed early tonight. And, since I don’t have much else to do, I’m sitting on the couch watching the movie Elf.
I have seen this Will Ferrell Movie at least a dozen times now and, like most Christmas classics, it is a movie I just cannot …
Odd Couple movie
I am reviewing the movie, The Odd Couple, starring Jack Lemmon and Walter Matthau. There are two movies in this series, and this is the first one. The second one is, naturally, called The Odd Couple 2. In The Odd Couple, we are first introduced to …
Night Watch
Night Watch is a movie I saw going on recently when I was at someone’s house watching television. At first I had mistaken it for a movie from the 80s I had seen going on several times, but after a while I realised that it was actually a movie …
Carrie (2013 movie)
Ever since the original movie was released in nineteen seventy six, there seems to have been quite a few remakes of the movie “Carrie” as well as one or two spin offs from it. The one that I’ve decided to review though was the one that was released late …
Movie The Hangover
The Hangover is a great movie. But of course, do not follow what these guys have done. Basically they are on a romp for a guy’s night out, so to speak for the about to be married friend.
But things took a wrong turn when the groom …

Show Boat musical
It took me a long time to actually get through Show Boat in one sitting, and while I agree it’s a classic motion picture, for some reason I don’t watch it that often. It’s another musical that features Howard Keel, and for some reason, his pictures are ones …

The Girl Next Door is about a high school senior named Matthew Kidman (Emile Hirsch) thats been a good student and straight-laced so long that he feels like hes never really …
Hush movie
The movie Hush starring Jessica Lange and Gwyneth Paltrow in the main roles is a good movie in the genre of drama with an underlying thriller element. The movie though is good has a predictable story and the pace of the movie is a bit slow. But nevertheless it …
Forgetting Sarah Marshall
I’m not usually a huge fan of romantic comedies. They’re OK but I get bored with them quickly because they usually have the same basic plot.
However, I have to say, after watching Forgetting Sarah Marshall, I did find myself entertained throughout.
The good thing about this movie is it offers …

The Wedding Singer
“The Wedding Singer” is definitely one of the movies mostly related to Adam Sandler. Personally I was very much looked forward to watch this movie after I saw the trailer, however in the end it failed to reach my expectations. I expected a funnier Adam Sandler like in the …
Monsters Inc. : Movie
The Pixar/Disney team has made some wonderful movies over the years. There has been the recent UP and the Toy Story series, and many others. But I have to say that one of my favorite all time Pixar movies is Monsters Inc.
Monsters Inc has a very unique storyline. …
Dallas Buyers Club (movie)
It’s that time of year again when awards ceremonies such as the Academy Awards and the Golden Globes honour spectacular achievement in films released over the past year. As someone who considers myself as an artistic person and a film buff who desires to go into the business someday, …
The Room, movie (2003)
Those who know me know I can enjoy a bad movie. Between a childhood of Mystery Science Theater 3000 and exposing myself to as much cinema I could get my hands on as an adult, I’ve seen quite a few stinkers in my experience. But just when …
The Evil Dead (1981)
Starring: Bruce Campbell, Ellen Sandweiss, Betsy Baker, Hal Delrich, and Theresa Tilly.
Directed by: Sam Raimi.
Launching Sam Raimi’s career, The Evil Dead is a weird mixture of gore, horror, and comedy; not exactly in the same vein as something such as RoboCop, that’s an entirely different animal of a film. …
