She’s Out of My League Movie
I finally watched She’s Out of My League last night. I’ve seen the movie trailer and behind the scenes stuff at HBO a couple of months ago and I liked it. It’s one of the romantic comedy movies that you see, have a few laughs and then totally …
Ice Age -Movie One in the Trilogy
I watched this movie a long time ago and then again recently; I recall then thinking that it was childish -which I suppose is good because it’s mostly a kid’s movie but I had hoped it would entertain me too- and that I would not care so much …
Zombieland Movie
It’s a short and simple story chronicling the lives of four survivors in a zombie infested America. Quite a shallow plot, but extremely funny. Its comedic factor is refreshing because it isn’t lewd or too slapstick.
Columbus played by Jesse Eisenberg was funny when he was alone, giving the …
Ratatouille
Ok … this is another cute mouse movie by Disney. It’s quite alright … but I don’t think it was geared towards a wide enough audience. I thought it was so cute; the mouse cooking for the guy who wanted to be chef; and the transformation the chef made …
Rocket Science movie
Unlike its title, the movie “Rocket Science” has almost nothing to do with anything scientific. However, I till admit that the plot makes it quite an interesting and unusual teenage film. In fact, I’m still trying to recall right now if I’ve ever seen another film with a similar …
American Gangster The Movie
American Gangster is a movie that I went to this last weekend and I spent $22 for me and my girlfriend to see this over hyped movie and I was very dissapointed in it. The movie stars Denzel and so I thought it would be good but I found …
The Hills Have Eyes
This is one of the scariest remake movies I’ve ever seen. The original was filmed in 1977. The author of this Horrible tale is Wes Craven. The theme is nothing supernatural but mainly of unlikely people and it’s rather gross. When I look at it, …
Assault on Precinct 13, movie (1976)
As a director, John Carpenter has made it no secret how much Westerns have had an influence on his work. His classic films like Escape from New York and They Live have elements and utilize cliches from the Western genre. While his first film was the comedic …
Katha (Hindi Movie)
This is one of the better entertainers I have seen in Indian cinema. Katha, meaning ’story’, is directed by Sai Paranjpe, and she has done a fantastic job to narrate ‘Chawl’ (a big house where different people live together, and are allotted one room each - they have a …

Erin Brokovich Movie
In my opinion, Erin Brokovich is by far the best movie Julia Roberts has ever made. It’s great to see her star in something much more relevant and worthwhile than so many of her other offerings.
It tells the story of (no surprises here), Erin Brokovich, who is a …
Golmaal (movie) July, 2006
The movie, Golmaal released on 14th July 2006. It is a really hilarious movie. It has a punch line Fun Unlimited, and well this movie is really fun unlimited, of course without brains. There is no proper plot is this film but the film works for its funny witty …
Shallow Hal movie
Shallow Hal is probably one of the funniest movies I have ever seen in my life. Jack Black stars as Hal the shallow guy who only cares about a woman’s body. I gotta say the movie made me laugh. The past where he said tells him to get a woman …
A Night To Remember movie
A Night To Remember focuses on the night the Titanic went down. I have seen both versions, and I prefer the old one, and am reviewing that movie here. Even though it is black and white, I think that A Night To Remember, made in 1957, is the best …
Carolina Moon (2007 Film)
The 2007 film “Carolina Moon” is based on a novel by Nora Roberts. While I have not read the novel, I found the movie to be heart warming and very interesting, with a bit of the supernatural thrown in there as well. It was also a wonderful mystery type …
The Father of the Bride movie
Very often, the old original movie is better than a modernized remake; however, in this case I must say that it is not so. I had watched “The Father of the Bride” with Steve Martin first, for many years having no idea that it was a remake. Then I …
Shallow Hal
Shallow Hal is a drama romantic comedy movie starred by Jack Black and Gwyneth Paltrow. The story is about the shallow Hal, he always looking for a girl who has a beautiful appearance, not the personality. He always picky and undersetimated many girls. One day he met the man …

Going My Way
I am reviewing the movie, Going My Way, starring Bing Crosby. This is the prequel to the well popular sequel, The Bells of Saint Mary’s. The story follows Father O’Malley, played by Bing Crosby. He arrives at a church, with orders of the bishop to replace the …
Shawn of the Dead
It took a long time for me to watch Shawn of the Dead, because I thought it would simply be one of those stupid satires on horror movies, similar to Scary Movie and its sequels, and I am not very fond of those films. But, a few years ago, …
Patton (1970)
Long winded speeches hold no candle to this 1970 film about a General who knows how to win and to also motivate all in his command to have the same mentality. Taking charge is a talent that so many have but very rarely make good use of it, unlike …
The Spy Who Loved Me movie
The third 007 film starring Roger Moore is one of my favorites. The background story is the usual: someone is threatening to take over the world and Bond has to stop him. What really is unusual about this film, and this amazed me more than anything when I first …
Reno 911! Miami (Movie)
Reno 911! is a television show that I’ve watched since it first started. When I first saw the previews for their first full length movie, I couldn’t wait to see it. I dragged a friend with me to the theater, and while he loved it, I found it fairly …
Son of the Mask (Movie 2005)
Just when you thought that it was safe to back into the water, dun dun…dun dun…dun dun…the had to go ahead and spoil a perectly good original movie with the crappy “Son of the Mask”. Tell me, why did they feel the need to create a sequel, was it …

The original release date was June 18, 2004 for United States audience. This movie falls in the genre of Comedy/Drama/Romance and stars Tom Hanks as Viktor Navorski, …
Annapolis (2006)
I don’t get this movie. It starts off with a young man trying to get into the US Navy. He is approached and offered a late entry spot and he takes the opportunity. He goes under the usual regulated training as a US Naval officer, then the whole direction …
Bewitched
Once again Nicole Kidman has shown what a valuable asset she is to hollywood. Her performance in bewitched is spell binding and applaudable. Her karisma leaves as all bedazzled! Bewitched is definitely one of her finest work along with funny man and co-star Will Farrell. Will has shown off …
Love Actually movie
Love Actually is a great Christmas movie, and I watch it every year. The movie has a huge cast and features many big names, like Hugh Grant, as the British Prime Minister, Colin Firth, as a writer trying to deal with heartache of finding his wife in bed with …
RIPD (movie)
The 2013 movie RIPD was one of those that viewing the trailer made me interested in seeing, but just not enough to spend money and watch it in a movie theatre. Months later when I was watching it on Blu Ray at home, I had no regrets about my …

Desperate Escape movie
Though made in 2009, Desperate Escape only premiered on the Lifetime Movie Channel in February 2010. Make no mistake this is a B-movie with a standard, much-used plot and not a single surprise within in, unless you’re new to TV and movies. What it does have, however, …
The Painted Veil
I am absolute biased in writing this review because in adore Edward Norton’s work, give it that he may interpret the worst of criminals or the best of lovers. I find that Norton has got a lot of passion in his work and really tries to give his best …
Movie Knowing
I saw the movie Knowing last night, and I have to say that Nicolas Cage has once again lived down to my opinion of him as a poor actor who should have quit after Raising Arizona. The movie is terrible, which isn’t all the actors’ faults, as the plot …
Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein (1994)
Kenneth Branagh’s adaptation of Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein, is one of the best Frankenstein movies that has ever been made. This movie is so powerful that it moved me in a way that no other movie ever has. It stars Robert De Niro, who is an incredibly talented actor, as …
The Europeans (1979)
This 1979 movie has failed my expectations, big time. It is based on a novel by Henry James, and the story is set in 1850s � my favorite timeframe, so I thought I was going to love it. A wealthy American family lives a comfortable life in their house …
Lady & The Tramp
This simple story of two dogs getting together is made all the more unique because it is told from the point of view of the dogs. I found this fact to be charming. There have been many stories done in this manner, but I think Lady and the Tramp …
Step Up movie
Step Up: yes please do. Step up the acting, step up the writing, step up the score. Above all, step up the dancing. There was absolutely nothing redeeming about this movie, and I like cheesy dance movies. The lighting was incredibly unflattering throughout the entire running, the acting was …
Homeward Bound The Incredible Journey
Homeward Bound The Incredible Journey is an enchanting movie about two dogs and one cat. It all starts when their loving family has to go on a trip. They are forced to leave their animals with a friend miles away from home. After awhile the animals get worried …
Bubble movie
“Bubble” is directed by Stephen Soderbergh. Soderbergh is the brillian mind behind such films as “Sex, Lies and Videotapes” and “Traffic”. Whats sad about this is that “Bubble” Is terrible. I’m not sure how a great director can go from hollywood blockbusters to bombing …
Son-in-Law
The funny thing about the movie Son-in-Law is the fact it’s funny the first time you see it but gets less and less funny every time you watch it.
Pauly Shore might have been yesterday’s Larry the Cable Guy but the reality is his movies really lack any real substance …
“The Chronicles of Narnia: The Voyage of The Dawn Treader” film
I am a huge “The Chronicles of Narnia” fan. I remember it as being the first book series I ever read.
I had the privilege to attend a charity screening event attended by Skandar Keynes, and Georgie Henley (the main actors in the film). It was an event I’ll …
“The green mile” movie
Making a film based on the novel by Stephen King is not quite easy. Frank Darabont, however, makes this perfectly, creates a delicious, challenging cinema, full of unexpected vertigo action and psychological analysis. Combining drama with fantasy does not sound appetizing. “The Green Mile” is an exception to the …
