Movie: The Prowler
I was in the mood for a good old fashioned slasher movie this past weekend and decided to look to the 1980s, when slasher movies ruled. I ended up picking out one I hadn’t heard of before called The Prowler and it ended up being one of the better …
Serenity movie
Serenity is a great movie but most of the people who have seen it either love it or hate it. Serenity is my favorite movie and was made as a follow up to the series Firefly by Joss Whedon that I love. Firefly was only shown for a few …
Movie : Exte by Sion Sono
Wow! This movie is definitely a much better film than you would ever expect from the goofy premise. A film that basically is about cursed hair extensions I wasn’t expecting much but then again I was. Sion Sono is a brilliant, disturbed and talented director who …

“Viva Baseball” is a 2005 documentary about Latino baseball players and the affects Latinos have had on baseball. I’m a big baseball fan and like fans everywhere am familiar with the 1947 the year the “color” barrier was broken when Jackie Robinson became a Brooklyn Dodger, but I was …
Star Wars: Attack of the Clones (2002 Films)
The 2002 film “Star Wars: Attack of the Clones” was yet again another great addition to the Star Wars movies. It has so many unique aspects that have set this movie apart from others around it’s time such as the graphics, the plot, the acting, and the pure suspense …

Inception movie
Oh. My. God. If only I could write this review in caps, I would have wholeheartedly done so just to stress how freaking amazing this movie is.

Miss Congeniality 2
Miss Congeniality 2 is a must watch! It stars Sandra Bullock and you don’t really have to watch the first part to be able to watch Miss Congeniality 2. In fact, you wouldn’t feel ‘lost’ at all, trust me. However, I’ve watched both and here is my …
Film Who Framed Roger Rabbit
Truly one of the most innovative films of the 1980’s, I don’t believe that anyone truly expected what this film was before they witnessed it.

The Pursuit of Happyness
The Pursuit of Happyness (”happyness” intentionally misspelled) is unusually good, in fact I would say it is one of the best movies I’ve recently watched. Will Smith plays Chris, a poor man trying hard to provide for his family but not succeeding, for a long time. His wife is …

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.

Forrest Gump (1994 film)
The greatest movies are perhaps the different ones and Forrest Gump with its unique nature of storytelling, the absolutely original character and the randomness of its narrative definitely stroke me as such.

The Truth about Cats & Dogs
