Movie Homocide
Homicide with Joe Mantegna and Bill Macy.

London - (starring Jessica Biel)
I watched London starring Jessica Biel the other day and it’s not really that bad a movie story. Chris Evans star too and in this DVD movie story that I watched, it’s basically about Chris Evans and he act as the character Syd. He is a guy that …
Network movie
What a deeply prophetic and darkly funny film this is. The performances from Peter Finch, Faye Dunaway and William Holden are absolute perfection, and Sidney Lumet’s directing is brilliant as well, but the screenplay by Paddy Chayefsky is the true diamond of this movie. It is shockingly …

Horror of Spider Island Movie
I ended up watching an old movie last night called Horror of Spider Island. From what I can tell, this was a foreign movie (likely German) that was dubbed and was supposed to be a scary movie.
Well, I have to tell you, this black and white film was one …
Chicken Little movie
When it comes to being a good family film, Chicken Little falls a little short.

Let’s start with the concept of …

Ironman
Before renting Ironman, I expected it to be a cliché, super-hero, comic-book movie. Even though I love anything Robert Downey Jr. does, I didn’t expect this role to show off his brilliant acting ability. I was wrong about that, and I really enjoyed this action movie, because it actually …
