Joker of the Dark Knight
For superhero lover, Joker isn’t a newbie. He’s arrogant, scary yet frightening. And he’s brilliant though. There are several actor who had played this role in the movie. But comparing all of those actors, the best one for me is the last Joker in Batman’s movie, The Dark Knight, …
MJR Marketplace Theater in Sterling Heights Michigan

The layout of the theater is excellent, the flow …
The Last King of Scotland (R, 2006) movie
Forrest Whitaker is a genius in this movie. I knew just from seeing the trailer that this film was going to be terrific. The previews didn’t lie. In fact, the film was better than I expected. The story of Idi Amin is interesting, …

Movie Cleopatra
In my opinion, the movie Cleopatra was outstanding and exciting till the last moment. The movie was broke into joyful sections, melancholy sections, and humorous sections. One of the humorous sections was when the Egyptian fleet was set on fire by Caesar; Cleopatra instantly went to meet him. Caesar …
Quarantine
A few years ago, The Blair Witch Project used one camera to add realism to a horror film and was so successful at doing it, other movies have tried to copy the method. Unfortunately, those movies often fail.
This was pretty much the case with the movie Quarantine. On one …

Howl’s Moving Castle
“Howl’s Moving Castle” did not take a step forward for Studio Ghibli. The Japanese animation studio is renowned for excellent story
telling, and stunning animation, but this latest film is not quite an advancement. Past films like “My Neighbor Totoro,” “Ponpoko,” “Kiki’s
Delvery service” and “Spirited Away,” each brought more creative …

Audition (movie) 1999
This film has left me pretty stunned and I really need to watch it again. Yes, I think it is very good but it is certainly not to everyone’s taste. There is a rather famous, or infamous, torture scene that is truly agony to experience, but I …
It’s a Date movie
From 1940, It’s a Date is a surprisingly fun movie to watch. It stars Deanna Durbin, who was once the biggest thing in Hollywood. I did some reading about her yesterday when I watched this story and was amazed at her success in Hollywood and especially with …
The Fault in Our Stars (teen romance movie)
I’ve been a fan of the young actress Shailene Woodley ever since I saw her performance in Divergent. It was clear to me that she had matured as an actress and taken on more mature roles. Therefore, even though I’m certainly no fan of romance movies, I was definitely curious …
Transporter
Up until I saw this film I had not seen any of Jason Statham’s work. Like Steven Seagal and Jean Claude Van Damme before him, he has made a movie career solely out of the fact that he knows kung fu.
The writers behind this film weren’t much …
Fire Wall
If anyone ever wants to know why I oppose a fourth Indiana Jones film, they should watch the movie Firewall.
Harrison Ford definitely shows his age in this movie. He plays a married man and father of two who must figure out a way to hack into his bank�s security …

Snakes on a Plane (2006)
Snakes on a Plane… The title pretty much sums it up: that’s what the movie is about, snakes on a plane biting and killing people. There is no point, no deeper meaning, just that. Of course, there is some basic plot, explaining how hundreds of snakes got on an …
Re-Animator
The movie, the Re-Animator, is based off of H.P. Lovecraft’s novel of the same name. It’s a massive gorefest, filled with loads of blood, nudity, and a very addictive theme song. This isn’t what you would call a zombie movie, or a infection or virus movie either, but it …
Kung Fu Panda
I am not a big fan of animated films. I watch them every now and then, but I am not so keen on seeing them. But when I saw the trailer of Kung Fu Panda, I instantly want to watch it. The trailer was cool, the story and also …

This is actually a Thai film dubbed in English when I saw this one, I love watching horror movies even though I get scared easily, and this isn’t exactly your good old ghost but modern horror because of it’s demonic side. This is a story about a local girl …
From Paris With Love (2010) movie
Haven’t seen John Travolta take to the screen in a film that I have liked lately but this one was pretty entertaining. Nothing special just a good old fashion entertainment action film.
I do like the storyline it is quite interesting, with a twist I did not expect so …
Forrest Gump
I was watching the movie Forrest Gump again for probably the third or fourth time. While not quite as good as I remember it when I originally saw it, I still think this has to be one of Tom Hanks better pictures.
The great thing about this movie is you …

Eternal Sunshine of a Spotless Mind
This is probably one of my fewest most favorite films of all time! Eternal Sunshine of a Spotless Mind is a fictional movie that basically gravitates around the idea about love. Played by the phenomenal Jim Carrey as Joel Barish and the versatile Kate Winslet as Clementine. The plot …
500 Days of Summer (2009 film)
I had first been interested in the 2009 film, 500 Days of Summer, because one of its main actors (Zooey Deschannel) has always impressed me in other films that she has done. However, her character Summer did little less then annoy and disappoint me. I constantly felt sorry for …
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 …
Taken movie
Now this is how you do an action movie. All the car chases that seemed hollow and perfunctory in the Transporter movies are done well.
The story’s simple enough, the trailer really gives you all the info you need to know. It’s a father racing against …

Movie Taxi Driver
Martin Scorsese’s masterpiece Taxi Driver is probably not only one of his greatest film technically, but also artistically. The social comentary of the film is unsurpassed, which says a lot considering the vast number of social-commentary oriented films made during the 1970’s. Taxi Driver worked not only as a …
Marley & Me Movie 2008
I adored this film - Marley and Me - but I suspect that has a lot to do with the fact that I do love dogs. Marley is a Labrador owned by John and Jennifer (Owen Wilson and Jennifer Aniston) and the movie covers their life with Marley …
The Secret Life of Walter Mitty (movie)
The only thing about the trailer of “The Secret Life of Walter Mitty” that interested me was that Ben Stiller seemed to be playing the main role. This is because Stiller is one of my favourite comedy actors, and I thought did a great job in movies such as “There’s …

Bells Are Ringing movie
I only saw Bells Are Ringing for the first time in this decade. I’d always heard about it when people talked about the great Judy Holliday since this was her most identifiable film legacy. Finally, I had a chance to see it and judge for myself whether …

3000 Miles to Graceland movie

Strawberry Shortcake: Big Country Fun
My daughter spends a great deal of time watching some of the newer episodes of Strawberry Shortcake. So, as a bit of a change, I got her one of the older episodes of the show.
While the only noticeable difference in Big Country Fun compared to other Strawberry Shortcake movies …
Star Trek Voyager season 3 episode 11
Star Trek Voyager season 3 episode 11 which is titled the Q and the gray was a very interesting yet odd episode for Voyager. I remember when Janeway first encountered the Q in a previous episode but never realized that he sort of holds a certain amount of fascination …

Vampire Knight: Guilty 1 anime
Vampire Knight: Guilty is the second season of the anime based on the manga, Vampire Knight, by Matsuri Hino which is my favorite vampire anime, mainly because it is a shoujo, but still serious at the same time. The image on this DVD cover is of Ichiru and …
Cry-Baby movie
Last week I watched a movie called Cry-Baby with my girlfriend as she’s found a fascination with Johnny Depp and this is I believe his first major role in a movie. To be very honest, my expectations for this movie were extremely low and I honestly didn’t expect …
Film “Frozen” (2010)
I just finished watching this movie and I have to say I was impressed. It bills itself as a thriller and all you know about it from the previews and the poster is three kids get stuck on a chairlift and have to get back alive. …
