Movies Reviews
Sharknado: The 4th Awakens, movie
On the off chance that you weren’t aware, these movies are kind of silly. The film makers know that the premise is ridiculous and just go all out with it. More often than not, it makes for an entertaining time.
The second one was a bit of a dud, but …

Diary Of A Mad Black Woman movie (2005)

Steel Magnolias showcases the talents of Shirley MacLaine (Ouiser), Sally Field (M’Lynn), Dolly Parton (Truvy), Julia Roberts (Shelby), Olympia Dukakis (Clairee) and Daryl Hannah (Annelle). With a cast like that, how can you go …

The Princess Bride Movie
I have watched the movie The Princess Bride countless times now. And, I have to say, even after seeing it more times than just about any other movie (including Star Wars), this film is still as good as it was the first time I saw it.
The thing I like …
Wrath of the Titans (Movie)
I have been interested in the Greek myths since I was a child so was excited to see this movie, especially as the trailers looked great. Even though they now looked dated I have always loved the classic movie adaptations of these stories with effects by Ray Harryhausen, so …

Beowulf (2007)
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 Adventures of Robin Hood DVD

This is a rather interesting, fresh look at the story of King Arthur. Most of us have probably heard the legends: Arthur, Lancelot, the Round Table, the Excalibur sword stuck in the stone, Merlin the wizard. This movie contains all those elements, but, rather than just retelling the legend, …

Desperate Hours Remake (1990)
I’m not a big fan of remakes of movies. I call them “removies”. I find that removies are rarely as good as the original movie. In part this is because the movies that are usually redone are movies that were excellent movies to begin with. Nobody tries to …

A Bug’s Life
When it comes to Pixar, this film is one of my least favorites. It’s a cute movie with a good heart and message, but it just doesn’t make me interested in watching it more than once or twice a year. Not even my son has showed interest and he …
Over the Hedge

Centering around a bunch of wild animals having to cope with a …
Love and a .45 (1994)

Death Note, Netflix movie

Monsters Movie (2010)
