Gladiator Movie
A spectacular film starring Russell Crowe as Maximus the General and a slave gladiator. The action in this film is not great but it is OK, not too gruesome, not too bloody. The plot is on point and it delivers the goods. Joaquin Phoenix plays a great bad guy …

Clockwork Orange, movie
Clockwork Orange, Stanley Kubrock film, starring Malcom McDowell.
When this came out back in the 1970’s, it caused quite a stir. Some howling conservatives wanted an X-rating, and when it finally did come out, maybe some people didn’t understand it, but knew it was something special. This film has …
Cheaper by the Dozen 2 movie
While I thought the first Cheaper by the Dozen movie was lame, I did not think that a sequel to it could possibly be just plain silly and a waste of money that could have been put to proper use elsewhere. This time the movie was not just lame, …

This is the first movie, in my opinion, since the Lord of the Rings Trilogy that will remain a classic for decades to come. There are not enough superlatives to describe this movie. Everything, EVERYTHING, is flawless in my eyes. The acting in unreal. The …

Movie Gomorrah
I had expected the movie —˜Gomorrah’ to be dark and violent, as the plot is about gangs in modern-day Naples, Italy, and it was certainly as I expected. What I hadn’t expected was that, along with the murder and drugs that are prominently featured in this sub-titled film, the …
The New Adventures of Heidi movie
