Noises Off
This is what I consider to be one of the best and one of my favorite comedies of all time. A Broadway play gone wrong. If you were sitting in a front row seat, you couldn’t help but to just die laughing. When it comes to stage plays …
Movie Alvin and the Chipmunks the squeakal
I took my kids to go see Alvin and the Chipmunks the squeakal when it opened on December 22nd. I knew that my kids wanted to see it, but I prepared myself to be disappointed. I really thought the first one was cute, and I am used to the …
Zack and Miri make a porno Movie
I just recently finished watching this comedy movie on DVD player. Firstly, I should say that there are only few bits that I really find very funny. I was disappointed though because I was expecting that there could be lots of hilarious stuff. But I think …
Back to the Future
I was a teen when I’d first seen Back to the Future, and I was stunned, just like many other viewers, I’m sure. Time travel was not a new movie theme even back then, but I don’t think anyone had done it this way before: sending the character not …
Ironman the Movie
Before when I was watching the movie trailer of Ironman, I was thinking that the trailer was just intended to hype up the anticipated viewers of the film. I guess my first impression was wrong, I under estimated the capacity of the movie to become a blockbuster hit.
Anyway, …
The Ring movie
The Ring is one of the best scary movies to come out this decade. I think this movie is up there with the Exorcist. The US version is very well done and very creepy. I think what is so scary about the movie is that the whole time you …
Sunshine (DVD)
This is without doubt one of the most horrible movies I’ve ever seen! It is truly awful and as I watched it, it grew worst and worst.
The way they filmed it is just ghastly. There are many scenes in this movie where odd colored bands cover part of …
Film Basket Case
Considered by some to be one of the sickest films ever made, director/writer Frank Henenlotter’s Basket Case is also very inventive, scary, gruesome, touching, funny and disturbing cult films ever made against the most spindly of shoestring budgets.
Brining a wicker basket with him to Manhatten, Duane (Kevin Han Hentenryck) …
Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows
I am a confessed Harry Potter addict. I even make it a point to get the first editions of the books on the day they come out, and I willingly line up just to be the first one to watch a Harry Potter movie. I submitted a review of …
Perfect Stranger
I have to say, I was thoroughly impressed by the newly released film “Perfect Stranger” starring Halle Berry and Bruce Willis.
The story of the film is completely enthralling with twists and turns all over the place. It left me unable to move, just waiting for the next sequence of …
Sully (2016 Biographical Drama Film)
A Clint Eastwood and Tom Hanks joint biopic sounds too good to be true. But it is 2017 now and apparently anything could happen. Back in the beginning of 2016, I greatly waited for this, but when the time it became available in cinemas I told myself to just wait …
Chuck and Larry
I just got finished having a movie day with my girlfriends. I must say first off that I was not dissatisfied with any of the movies that we watched. The first movie that we watched was I now pronouce you Chuck and Larry. I love Adam Sandler and this …
Unlimited movie rental
I signed up for Blockbuster Total Access 3 months ago. I was very surprised that it worked the way Blockbuster says on TV. If you sign up at the store or online you have to pay a monthly fee. I signed up for the unlimited movies …
Snakes on a Plane (movie)
I love creature movies, those scary movies where some giant animal or a bunch of tiny ones run rampant and gobble up a bunch of people. They often are free of blood and gore (something too common these days in other types of horror movies) and are just scary …
Speed Racer Movie
The makers of speed racer were from Larry and Andy Wachowski, the founders of the Matrix trilogy. They are once again, using their CGI magic markers to create a colorful and exciting world of the speed racer.Many of you might have already heard and seen Speed Racer, it’s basically …
Spiderman 3
I went into this movie expecting it to be busy. It was, but not at first. It started off very slowly, reintroducing the main characters and situations already familiar to us from the first two movies. But, with the preliminaries out of the way, things got rockin’, starting, I …
Feature Film “The Collector”
This movie had made me be more careful about the movies I check out with netflix. I did not know too much about this film before I watched it. I had only seen the trailer and it did not look too bad. To make sure I …

A Clockwork Orange (starring Malcolm McDowell)
Malcolm McDowell played it good. I watched the DVD A Clockwork Orange and it has a rather interesting plot in which it is involved with a bit of an experimentation issue and all. Malcolm plays a bad guy character and after being caught, he is being put through …
Cadillac Records
This movie was actually pretty good. Most of the main characters managed to capture the essence of the lives they were supposed to play, but some did not. Mos Def played Chuck Berry and did an outstanding job portraying one of the pioneers of what we now know as …
Dallas Season 9 DVD
A lot of people knock this particular season of DALLAS but it really isn’t all that bad. Actually, the only knock it because of what happens in season 10. Ok, let’s explain what this is all about: in the previous season, Patrick Duffy left Dallas to seek other pursuits. He …

Graduation Day
I don’t remember much about 1981 (I would have only been about 6) but, if the movie Graduation Day is any indication, I don’t think it was a year where there were a lot of good movies.
The film advertises itself as a thriller but it was more of a …
Meet the Spartans (2008)
This movie is a spoof of the Frank Miller’s telling of the tale of the Spartans, the movie known as 300. Basically everything from start to finish about this movie is similar to 300 with the exception of that it’s a pun of the movie. In addition, almost everything …
Alvin and the Chipmunks Movie
I saw the movie Alvin and the Chipmunks The Squeakquel at my local MJR Family Film Festival. I was a bit not-so-happy to go see it but it only cost my wife and I two bucks and our daughter got in free.
It ended up being a pretty cute …

Alice in Wonderland (2010)
I assumed that Alice in Wonderland would be very interesting because Tim Burton was a part of it. I thought the visuals would be wonderful and the story a bit on the darker side. I never went to see the movie in the theaters, but already I was hearing …
Spongebob Squarepants Cartoon
One thing I did not understand about my high school was that everyone who was someone watched the cartoon Spongebob Squarepants. By that I mean everyone from the hottest girls in the school to the baddest guys in the boys school and so on. At that time I never …
License to Wed
I didn’t know that License to Wed is a fun movie to watch. Unfortunately, I caught it on DVD rather than from the cinema itself, but it’s better than nothing.
This movie stars Mandy Moore (my favorite actress), and in this movie, she is known as Sadie. She …
You Got Served Movie
This dance movie is the ultimate perfect movie for every street dancer out there. I have watched a lot of street dance movies with crews and all and even ones that mixed ballet and street dance together, but in my opinion this is still the best and ultimate street …
Charlie Wilson’s War, biographical drama film by Mike Nichols
Something about Charlie Wilson’s War doesn’t feel right. The film tells the true story about Charlie Wilson and how he single handedly took down the Soviets. I was left with a bad taste in my mouth after watching this movie and I don’t know why I feel this way …
Jane Eyre Movie 1970
This is an older and lesser known version of Jane Eyre starring George C. Scott as Mr. Rochester and Susannah York as Jane. The movie was made in 1970. I bought my copy because of the great George Scott: the moment I heard there’s a “Jane Eyre” movie with …

Movie Silence of the Lambs
This spectacular movie has my most favorite film monologue ever and it’s probably the most memorable one as well. It was delivered quite eloquently by the legendary Anthony Hopkins. This film, “Silence of the Lambs” is nothing short of a
masterpiece. Based on the gripping novel by the author Thomas …
Videodrome
Videodrome with James Woods, Deborah Harry, and Sonja Smits
Since I feel that James Woods is the finest actor around, I just had to watch this movie even though the title was nebulous. Well, I am happy to say that Videodrome is the best science fiction …
