Tomorrowland (science fiction adventure film)
Tomorrowland was one of those movies that I was silly enough to be fooled into thinking was actually going to be good. After watching the trailer I thought, “This looks good. I wonder why I’m not hearing much about this movie”. After sitting through over two hours of it hoping …

It Follows is a story about a monster that is sexually transmitted, and once you have him following you, he doesn’t stop until you’re dead or you transmit it to someone else. This movie is another fantastic addition to the horror genre, and is well recognized as being one of …

Shoot ‘Em Up is the latest action flick starring Clive Owen and the beautiful Monica Bellucci. This movie is pure cinematic entertainment; if you’re looking for a complex plot or a realistic action flick, this is not it. Instead, Shoot ‘Em Up delivers over-the-top gun battles and fights that …
Away We Go (2009 Movie)
Away We Go is based on what I thought was a cute idea, so I really wanted to go see it. I missed it in the theatres though, because my friends wanted to see other things. I’m pleased that I managed to see it even though I didn’t get …
Wise girls movie 2001
I remember the movie Wise girls staring Mariah Carey, Mira Sorvino and Melora Walters being filmed in Halifax, Nova Scotia some years back. Recently I got to rent the DVD, and realized what all the commotion had been about.
Halifax, doubles as Rhode Island, and does a good double! I …
Deck The Halls movie
Last Christmas I was able to watch this movie. For me it was really a nice movie. I like the story so much since it was centered on the family and how much a person wants to find that something that would make him happy and complete. I really …

The Italian Job, movie (1969)
Chances are, you know who Michael Caine is. The Prestige, Inception and the recent trio of Batman films are only a few of the films to showcase his talents. Yet, there was a period where no one outside of England knew who he was. Thanks to …
Batman The Dark Knight 2008 Movie
Nowadays, saying the name Batman actually brings up enjoyable memories. Memories of the older movies that I enjoyed and the newer movies that reinvented it. Forgetting about the failures in-between. The Dark Knight was released in 2008 and featured Batman’s worst enemy. The Joker himself. But with all the …
Set It Off film
Four young black women disillusioned and down on their luck, begin robbing banks to make their way out of the ghetto and move onto better things.
The story of amateur crooks trying to make their way in the criminal underworld is hardly a new thing; and this film is …
American Beauty
I think American Beauty is a very strong movie with lots of issues involved that are perhaps much closer to home than we can ever imagine. When I first watched this movie on the cinema, I thought that it is something like a Desperate Housewives setting TV drama with …
The Sixth Sense
Oh, I loved this movie when it came out. I am also very easily scared though and the twist at the end of it had me freaked out. I love the subtle nuances in this movie, they make them seem real. I don’t know why writers have to use …
I Am Legend DVD
I am Legend is very much a one man show with lead actor Will Smith on great form in undeniably his best screen performance to date. Overhyped? almost definately, but despite this the end result is ultimately rewarding.
So what’s it all about ? Emma …
Are You Here (2013 Film)
Are You Here, is a comedy movie I had the opportunity to view one evening. I hadn’t heard much about the film, until browsing the internet movie data base. I was curious about the movie after viewing the cast list of actors who started in the movie. Normally, I …
Eat, Pray, Love (2010 Film)
I don’t know what it is about Julia Robert’s, but no matter what role she plays, I can’t help but be pulled into to whatever the story line may be. In this case, the story line was the well-known novel turned into a film, the 2010 movie “Eat, Pray, …
The Return movie
Normally, when I watch a Sarah Michelle Gellar movie, I expect there to be a lot of action and a little bit of terror. Her movie The Return provided the latter but not enough of the former.
The idea behind The Return is a good one. Gellar plays a …
The Bourne Ultimatum
I have to say, this movie really did live up to my expectations. Third in the series that also includes The Bourne Identity and The Bourne Supremacy, this movie follows Jason Bourne as he seeks out the people who made him what he has become and gradually “all …

In the third installment of the original Star Wars triology was the Return of the Jedi. I think that this was one exciting movie.
Our list of charachters return with Luke Skywalker now a full fledged Jedi, and part of him, his arm has been replaced with …
Alien Vs. Predator: Requiem
I love movies. I love them. They are one my passions in life. “Alien” and “Aliens”, along with “Predator” are incredibly frightening, hardcore movies which I enjoy with every bit of fanboyish delight that they deserve. So it would make sense that if you take …
Let Me In movie
So I rented Let Me In the other night and I must say this movie truly scared the hell out of me. It really did something to me I had not felt in years. I didn’t know this was a monster movie but was really surprised. It’s of a love …
Beast Wars: Transformers - The Complete Third Season Set
The complete third season of Beast Wars: Transformers on DVD is a letdown. It’s not the fault of the picture or sound quality on the DVD set, although the amount of “extras” is very disappointing, but it’s the episodes that are the real problem. Unlike season two, the scripts …
Land of the Dead, movie (2005)
When zombies made their return to the forefront of horror film, there were almost as many good ones as bad ones. For every good one like 28 Days Later and Shaun of the Dead, there were bad ones like the remakes for Dawn of the Dead and Day …
G.I.Joe: The rise of Cobra
I really didn’t know what to expect of this movie. I had never seen a trailer about it so I was expecting something between war and politics, but like it actually happens, like we see it on TV every day. Here everything was about money, like it usually is, …
Child’s Play 2

Sitting on the Moon was a shorter movie release from 1936 which starred Roger Pryor as composer Danny West, Grace Bradley as one time star Polly Blair, William Newell as Mike, and Pert Kelton as Mattie.

Night of the Living Dead (1968)
MPAA Rating - Not Rated

Shall We Dance? (2004)
A masterful love story about ones passion, this movie is not only about love for another person, it is also about the love that a person has for what that person is doing and in this case, it is all about dancing. Yes, just as the title says, this …

Love and a .45 (1994)

Millionaire’s First Love
I have watched a very touching Korean movie that I think is worth a good review. The title is A Millionaire’s First Love. The movie started out really funny but ended really sad. The twist of the movie was cool and that it was really worth the time, I …
Two Weeks Notice
It is so difficult to say who is the ideal on screen partner for Hugh Grant. We have seen him act with such great female stars such as Julia Roberts, Drew Barrymore, Renee Zellwegar, Jeanne Tripplehorn, Julianne Moore and Andie MacDowell. I believe he is ideal on screen partner …

A mentally unstable man named Graham get tired of the people around him and gets the crazy idea of poisoning them all. The film is said to be based on true events, and was quite controversial when it came out. It think it is thrilling mostly because the head …
Shrek
I don’t know if it was Toy Story or Shrek that ushered in the age of the animated feature. I know Toy Story came first, but it seems to me that Toy Story showed filmmakers what was possible in the new age of computer animation. The people behind Shrek …
Letters to Juliet Movie

Ghost Town 2008 movie
Ghost Town is one of those movies where the story is so familiar that you already know what is going to have even if you are only given a little bit of the plot. (I found this with Avatar as well). I mean, this is such a common plot …

This movie has a very low rating on imdb.com but I say so otherwise and I think this is a great suspense and thriller movie. It had me thinking until the very end and there’s a twisted ending that’s nice too and although I had always been thinking that …

Confessions of a Call Girl (NR, 2007)
I am actually ashamed to admit that I watched this film in its entirety. I should have known that a film in which Bokeem Woodbine and Tamala Jones are cast in main roles as a powerful doctor/lawyer husband wife team, would be treacherous. Where do …
Terminator Movie
This is a GREAT movie…nothing short of GREAT. A killer is sent back in time to erase the mother of the leader of a revolutionary group and as the film goes, the killer has a very hard time trying to capture and eradicate this problem. Starring Arnold Schwarzenegger as …
