Graham Marshall (the always wonderful Michael Caine), a calm, quiet business executive, is about to receive a long-awaited promotion. Marshall is ready to celebrate, certain that the promotion is his, when he learns that Benham (Peter Riegert), his younger subordinate has gotten it instead. Benham becomes the head of …

I did not pay the movie “How to Lose Friends and Alienate People” any attention when it was advertising because I thought that it was going to be yet another one of those celebrity packed “comedies” that was not very funny. However, when I was forced to watch it …

I’m not usually a huge fan of romantic comedies. They’re OK but I get bored with them quickly because they usually have the same basic plot.
However, I have to say, after watching Forgetting Sarah Marshall, I did find myself entertained throughout.
The good thing about this movie is it offers …

“Cocoon: The Return” was released in 1988, three years after the original Cocoon that I really enjoyed. A group of senior citizens had left the planet Earth in the end of the first movie, choosing to live with aliens, on a planet where there is no illness or aging. …

I recently watched this movie on a DVD player at home. In my opinion I think the movie is quite sexy especially on that part where Jessica Alba was seen dancing on the disco floor in which she was secretly taken a video by some teenage guys while …

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 …

A sequel that should not have been made…why does everyone need to do a sequel? Was there something from the original Crow that was felt uncovered that they really needed a second installation, or, did they truly believe that they could make more money off re-doing a movie with …

Steamboy comes from the celebrated director of Akira, one of the most well-known anime films of all time. In 1866 Manchester, Ray Steam is the descendent of two great inventors who create machines powered by steam. But the conflict starts when his father and grandfather part ways …

I did not get a chance to go and see Breaking Dawn part 1 while it was in theaters, so my anticipation had been building ever since I saw the previews for the DVD release. I, myself, did not end up purchasing the movie; instead, a relative of mine …

With all of the different versions of Batman in the past, the present, and the future, there are very few if any who can truly compare to the Batman that Adam West created in the 60s. His Batman was more unique and personal then I think any other Batman …

Expectations were a lot from ‘The Uninvited’ but it was all gone after seeing the movie. The trailers shown on TV were too promising. You cannot say that it is a horror movie except for some creepy scenes when Anna, played by Emily Browning, is been visited by the …

This movie is fantastic. It’s a story which can happen everyday and it’s so realistic and original and simple that I think what makes it one good movie to watch. The story features Edward Norton, Jon Voight, and Colin Farrell as the main cast. The plot is about a …

I just watched the movie Eclipse and I did really enjoy it. I have seen both of the other movies, and this is the best so far. I believe this is mostly because the budgets have gotten better and the actors have grown. Most of the …

Ice Age 2 the meltdown is the best movie for families, that has come out this year. I was laughing from beginning to end. They really do pick up where they left off from the last movie. My kids just loved it and I did not …

I was surprised that this movie didn’t get more thumbs down on Netflix reviews. This was an interesting film that could have been much much better. Offering a slightly different spin on the typical teenage group in the woods slasher film, this movie uses a little …

I was all prepared to really hate this movie, or at the very least, dislike it intensely. This is because most of the films of this genre - especially those that are remakes of old classics—tend to be very poorly made. I knew this movie had …

I’ve heard of the Seven Wonders of the World before, but was unsure exactly what they were. Since I have always enjoyed ancient history, I thought I’d watch this DVD and learn more about them. This program lists each one and tells a little bit about them. It also …

I always go to the NCG Cinemas when I am at my parents house. The NCG theatre is a great experience for movie watchers because the theatre is clean, cheaper than most theatres, and unique.
The cinemas is located hidden off a main road in Acworth. …

This movie has one of the best opening 30 minutes ever. It takes you for the ride of your life in a realistic portrayal of what D-Day was actually like at the height of WWII. The brutalness and trueness of this first battle can’t help but hook …

“Harriet the Spy” was one of my favourite children’s movies when I was younger. Just recently in fact, I found out that it was the same actress who starred in the movies “Ice Princess” and “Eurotrip” who played the role of Harriet in the movie.
The movie is a …

I was excited to see this movie as it stars Anne Hathaway and Jake Gyllenhaal (Jamie) and the movie revolves around a guy who’s known for his charming and infallible ways in making women fall in love with him and dumping them afterwards, and he meets Maggie (Anne) and …

Knocked Up stars Katherine Heigl as Alison Scott, a young woman just promoted to an on-air celebrity interview position, and Seth Rogen as Ben Stone, a man with little motivation who is trying to make money off of a website he has started with his friends, where you can …

Wesley goes to High School, just any ordinary school where nothing exciting ever happens. One day there is a new biology teacher who involves Wesley in a strange experiment that makes all girls attracted to him.
This is a rather stupid and a bit sick High School comedy that doesn’t …

This movie is not to be confused with another movie by the same name and a similar plot which was released some time in either the late nineteen nineties or the early 2000s. I watched this movie some time either last week or the week before on a cable …

The movie “Circus of Fear” is one of the actor Christopher Lee’s older movies. At first I got the impression from the title that it was going to be a horror film, but, instead it turned out to be more of a mystery/suspense film. Personally, even though the …

This comedy is a real hoot! The cast of What a Way to Go! is first rate, a truly phenomenal group of actors who all surround the female star, Shirley MacLaine. Shirley plays Louisa May Foster, a girl from a humble family who really only wants to …

The Four is a 2012 Chinese-Hong Kong wuxia film directed by Gordon Chan and Janet Chun. It is the first film adaptation of Woon Swee Oan’s novel series Si Da Ming Bu aka The Four Great Constables.

The plot is about Zhuge Zhengwo who leads the Divine Constabulary is …

Scott Turow’s The Burden of Proof - Part 1 held some interest for me here and there, though it’s not something I would normally watch. Hector Elizondo stars as attorney Sandy Stern. Fresh off a victory, he goes home and finds his wife of many years dead, …

The film by Chloe Zhao, who acted as writer, director, producer, and editor, really surprised me. It is an adaptation of Jessica Bruder’s novel of the same name, but it is shot in a documentary style. NOMADLAND was a breath of fresh air for me in the world of glamour, …

Ben Stiller and Drew Barrymore do a wonderful job in pulling off this bright comedy about a couple trying to survive their first home owner’s experience. I thought this film was playful, funny and even a bit telling in how we all sometimes fall for things that are too good …

It was my sister who pointed me towards The Shoes of the Fisherman several years ago, and now I think I like it more than she does. Actually, I love this movie. It’s not about the religion, it’s about the principle and what could be if the powers …

Legendary filmmaker Roberto Rossellini, one of the leading men of the neorealist movement in post-war Italy, completed around 40-50 films during his career. Sadly, only few of these are available to a modern audience, most have been lost or badly damaged during the years. Germany Year Zero is probably …

Recently, I have been doing an anime marathon. I typically prefer either supernatural/mystery animes, or cute/funny animes. I go one way or the other. And Princess Jellyfish must be the funniest and cutest anime that I have ever seen. It makes me earnestly long for a second season, but …

Romeo Must Die, directed by Andrzej Barthowiak is rated R by the Motion Picture Association of America for violence, some language and brief nudity. The original date was March 22, 2000 for United States audience. This movie falls in the genre of Action/Crime/Drama/Romance/Thriller and stars Jet Li as Han …

I was at first hesitant to watch the movie by Marc Wahlberg; though I know he is a good actor and has proven himself way too many times in his previous movies, I’d say I am glad that I did go to the movies and watched it. I really …

I’m a big fan of any movie with Denzel Washington in it and this one lived up to what I expected exactly.
The story is somewhat complicated but contains simplicities in it. Eli (Washington) is the keeper of a very wanted book which turns out to be a copy …

I thought that this is going to be a super amazing movie story but it just disappoints me to the max. The actors aren’t that bad looking and quite talented and this is like a normal cop movie where Suspect X is the mystery in the story. Yukawa …

The anticipated meeting of two of movie’s greatest monsters is finally realized, but unfortunately fails to deliver beyond an initial, fleeting novelty.
There’s some thought put into it; an original Antarctic setting is visually impressive and the back story trying to tie these movie monsters into ancient history is …

What a scary thought. Lost your wife, then lose your only child, right before your eyes. If this wasn’t an animated feature, that would be a shocking premise, not a heartwarming one.
But I think this film’s subject matter was handled in a toned-down way, balanced between the search for …

We recently purchased the Pirates of the Caribean on video from Wal Mart. The one with Johnny Depp as Captain Jack Sparrow. I enjoyed this movie as much at home as I did in the movies when it first came out.
Johnny Depp play a direputile pirate …

The second installment to the Chronicles of Narnia films, Prince Caspian has become my favorite of the three movies released so far. The world of Narnia has progressed almost a thousand years into the future since the Pevensie children have returned to England. Telmarines have conquered Narnia, …

The Lake House is a romantic movie with enough drama to keep you engaged throughout the movie. This Sandra Bullock and Keanu Reeves starred movie has a unique and a bit confusing plot and this is for me the USP of the movie. The protagonists of the movie live …

IMDb is the international movies database, and for good reason. The sheer size of the amount of movies covered on this website is simply unsurpassed, I’d say. Every movie has a page, even if all is listed is a simple title. But rest assured, that situation will only persist …

From Squaresoft, the creators of the hit video game series Final Fantasy bring to the big screen, a spectacular visual treat. Four years in the making.
Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within veers off from the video game (FF7, FF8 and FF9). None of the characters in this film has supernatural …

I received The Mist from blockbuster about two days ago. I watched it thinking it was going to be a pretty good movie. I usually like Stephen King’s stories but this one I didn’t. I didn’t like the movie at all. It was not scary. It was gory and …

A League Of Their Own is a movie about women’s baseball. Evidently when World War II was going on, the women were left to fend for themselves, literally, in more ways than one. I knew that during the war, women were leaders in the work force because all the …
